Yes. It's a rite of passage, buying your first wand.

[sodonaluisa]

[ Sodonaluisa, first name Luisa, pronounce Loo-eeh-sah steps out of the train, one foot in front of the other and fanning herself with her hand, whispering something that could be interpreted as "fodasse estava abafado ali dentro." She looked at her surroundings, and finding the transmitter in her pocket, she just took it and made the most disgusted bitchy face at it. Ai que foleirada, fodasse. Uma lady não pode ir ao SPA que acontecem logo estas merdas todas. ]

Excuse me, where am I?

Milah ( Once Upon A Time. canon point is after her death)

[seamistress]

[She wakes up with a gasp, grasping at her chest. It takes her a while before she can even gather her wits and realize where she is-- despite the strangeness of it all.
She stays, cautiously observing her surroundings. With quiet steps, she exits the carriage and makes her way into the station. Her legs feel weak and she has never seen a place like this.]

Hello?

Is anyone there?

[masked_stag]

[James blinks.] An exit what?

[bien_aimee]

[ All she hopes for is the chance to avoid conflict. But even that thought vanishes from her line of thought once he leans in so close; she can feel her heart beating much faster and admittedly it makes her feel nervous.

She lingers, equal parts enjoying the proximity and slightly scared. This is undoubtedly overwhelming and in the end she lets out a little laugh, anxious as it may be, as she turns ever so slightly in a very subtle, only half-unconscious attempt to press her lips to his. ]

[bien_aimee]

[ Belle had been waiting ever since she heard the train approaching; that was usually a sign that someone would be arriving.

She takes a couple of steps in the woman's direction, taking notice of her appearance. There's something errily familiar about the way she dresses, but she doesn't seem to focus on that. ]

Ah, hello. [ She smiles, soft and polite. ] Welcome to Ruby City.

[atropabelladonna]

[ Lorelei shifts her weight from one foot to the other, carefully considering her options for the shortest moment before she finally decides to step forward and, with a nod, take his hand. ]

I have never explored past the forest. [ The one she knew, of course. ] But it sounds fascinating. [ A pause as she collects her words. ] As does your musical talent.

[ However, he makes a good point and Lorelei cannot help but to look down at the pebbles on the ground, hunching her shoulders slightly in a vague semblance of a shrug. ] He never strays too far.

[looselips]

Good. If a brain-damaged plebe like you approved of me, I think I'd have to kill myself.

[puppy_lancer]

You're doing a good enough job of that already.

[Suicide by stupidity.]

Henry Mills <|:|> Once Upon A Time

[faithinfairytales]

[henry didn't remember getting on the train. the last thing he remembered was eating the apple turnover. was this some sort of strange world where sleeping people were until they woke up?]

Hello? Is anyone there?

[looselips]

I already told you— What I do is no business of a loser like you!

[Hmph!! He starts dragging his basket off again.]

Jack Frost ❄ Rise of the Guardians

[bringsthefrost]

[O...kay. Waking up in strange places wasn't something on Jack Frost's to-do list. The last thing he remembered was being knocked out after that confrontation with Pitch, so naturally he was curious. Spirits don't exactly sleep walk after all. Well, unless you're Sandy.

He's currently perched on top of a light pole, peering out over the city, hands in his jacket pockets and staff over his shoulder.]

Toto, we're so not in Kansas anymore.

[seamistress]

[She turns almost suddenly, mostly still in a daze about her whereabouts. She takes a good look at the young woman-- no one she recognizes. Hm.]

Ruby City?

[bien_aimee]

[ Hanging out at the station is becoming a habit; Belle isn't sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but of all people Belle hadn't expected to see a young child. ]

Hello. Are you... Are you lost?

[seamistress]

[She herself was wandering through the station, trying to make sense of it all, when she hears his voice.
It's almost needless to mention how the sight of a young boy reminds her of the one she left a long time ago--but there's no time for that right now.
She starts to approach him, with a tone and air to her that were more gentle than usual.]

Hello?
Are you lost?

Re: Jack Frost ❄ Rise of the Guardians

[seamistress]

[She is cautiously stepping down one of the streets when she notices Jack. With the strangest, almost judgmental look, she calls out to him.]

What are you doing up there?

[seamistress]

In some god forsaken land, where, apparently, there's a nasty habit of mysterious kidnapping.

[bien_aimee]

[ Belle nods, but doesn't move closer so as to not scare her. Still, something about the way she addresses her shows that she doesn't mean any harm to the other woman. ]

It's... Well, it's a very long story. [ The hint of laughter in her tone is more anxious than amused, really. ] You were brought here, from another world - your world. The same happened to be and... Well, everyone else here.

[ She trails off. ]

I'm-- I'm sorry, I wish I could help you find your way back, but... I don't know how. If there's anything else you need...

Re: emma swan ⋆ once upon a time. ( canon point is season 1 finale )

[seamistress]

[She looks at her, raising an eyebrow.]

Well, it's most certainly not me.
Where you taken here as well?

[ticktockticktock]

Oh, someone's here alright.

[ Should he look for the origin of the voice, he would find a man leaning on nearby wall, looking straight at him, with a hint of a grin on his face. He enjoyed standing by, awaiting newcomers, even if it was but a small child. It was amusing, watching the state of confusion they found themselves in, as he had also been some months ago, at the time of his arrival.]

Welcome to Ruby City. Enjoy your stay, because you won't be going anywhere for a good while.

[bringsthefrost]

[It takes him a moment to realize he's being talked to. Kind of comes with the territory of being alone for three hundred years and only being able to be seen by kids. When he hears her voice he looks down at her in surprise, arching an eyebrow.]

Keeping a lookout for Santa.

[seamistress]

[She's just going to stare into the watch at...something she really can't recognize.]

[seamistress]

That's not the best reaction to have when you find yourself in unknown territory.

[ticktockticktock]

[ Oh boy. Had the city taken him from a different point in his life, he would be amused to hear Emma's voice, but sadly, this was not the case. Instead, he turned around, looking the woman in the eye with a glint in his eyes and a smile on his face. ]

I have no idea what you're talking about, love.

[ And his grin widened as he raised a brow. ]

But if you're thinking of leaving, It'll only take me about five minutes to make you change your mind.

Re: Mr. Gold (Rumpelstiltskin) ;; Once Upon a Time

[seamistress]

[She is just trying to find some sort of notion about where she is, how she got there, what is even happening. Having found no other people, her confusion had given way into frustration. She's stomping her way back into the station when she sees him.

Him.

He looks a bit different. His clothes, maybe? What an odd fashion. Not to mention how he doesn't look as...strange as he did when they last saw each other. But now's not the time to think about that--not that she could, considering her situation. Apparently, now's not the time for careful rational talking, either.

She stares for a long moment, in shock.]

You. [almost a whisper]



You.


You.
What did you do?

[And her tone was quickly moving from shock to anger.]
