Um. [ there's a girl in the video, in what looks like some kind of hospital gown, sweater, and coat. her brown hair is long and tangled, and she looks.. a little freaked out. (who can blame her?) she crosses her arms a little defensively across her chest, shifting from foot to foot and leaning down slightly to peer uncertainly in the mirror. ] I-- I guess this is a way to communicate? [ a short, slightly hoarse laugh. ] It's-- nostalgic, I guess. It makes me homesick-- magic, I mean. Not that I always.. approve, but..

[ she trails off, taking a ragged breath and leaning back, glancing away. ]

This is-- Canada? I-- I was in Storybrooke just a few minutes ago. [ a shudder, and she presses the heels of her palms to her eyes, shoulders hunching inward slightly, before offering another laugh, this one just a touch hysterical. ] I swear I'm going to start screaming if that was all some kind of-- hallucination. It's not-- It's not fair.

What it was like? Do you mean making a deal with him?

Yeah.

Well.. technically, it was my father who made the deal. I just agreed to it. It was terrifying at first, though.

Oh.

What was - I mean, what about it was terrifying?

R-- Mr Gold used to have a rather intimidating reputation. And the deal itself meant I couldn't go back home.

[How horribly familiar.]

But he was good to you, right? I mean, once you were there.

[ she nods, smiling a little wistfully. ]

It took some adjusting for both of us, but yes. [ up until the end, at least. ]

Good.

[Because honestly he can't take learning that yet another partner of his is secretly a monster.]

[ well, there's a reason her story is 'beauty and the beast', after all. ]

Are you a friend of his?

Yeah. I mean, I think so.

[ her smile takes on a relieved, fond note. ]

I'm glad, then. Thank you, Jesse.

Huh? What for?

For being a friend to him. I worry about him.

Oh. Yeah, no problem. I mean, he's been good to me.
