I think I missed the hat. [ No she's not joking, and yes she knows that sounds... odd ] And when your wardrobe's destroyed you get [ ... ] somewhere else not on the map. [ Not on her map. She's seen the map, and even if it looks vaguely familiar she doesn't remember anywhere known as Exsilium. Granted she's never heard of Storybrooke before or Fairy Tale Land before going there ]

If this hadn't been explained I would think I hadn't gone anywhere, or that this was Cora's doing. [ She may still be thinking that. Explanation or not it's not all sunk in yet, and considering she's here alone - her mother would be a better fit for this than her, not that she wants her stuck there either - it doesn't sound like something she wants to believe ] Which wouldn't be good. [ Just pointing that out ]

So. Just going to go out on a limb here. Has anyone read Snow White? [ Just in case? And why Snow White, other than the obvious ] Or... Pinocchio? [ As much as a friendly face could be nice she's not sure she wants to hear from them ]

Never mind. [ She sounds a little defeated, and she can't blame herself ] It was just a thought. [ A very bad one. On a scale of 1-10? ]

Okay, going with better questions I guess I need to know about this, or at least what's not covered in Exsilium 101. [ Great read, could have done with a joke or two though ] What don't they tell you? [ She needs that fine print ] Or a tip for getting used to it. [ Not settling in, that's not happening. And now she's stopping ] I'd appreciate it.

But you should always do that. _{( He grins, cheeky and boyish. )}

Then things like 'dis don't matter so much.

[toldinthebook]

It matters to someone. [ If the information is right, she hasn't decided that ] I'm not sure who.

[lepetitvoleur]

Someone said somethin' about a war. _{( Nodding, again. He really has next to no clue about what's happening. But look, he can be helpful! )}

[toldinthebook]

That was mentioned. [ At least she thinks that word came up somewhere, there was an awful lot of information running around ] And a lot about weapons was said.

[lepetitvoleur]

...'parently they're a big deal, 'round here. But it don't seem like an army, does it? Everyone's just runnin' round all confused.

[toldinthebook]

What about someone running it? Not bringing us here but this 'army'. [ She's in no army nope, refusing ]

[lepetitvoleur]

_{( A shrug. )}

I haven't seen anybody doin' that.

[toldinthebook]

Then I'm not sure what they hope for us to do.

[lepetitvoleur]

Maybe they're still figurin' that, themselves.

[toldinthebook]

You think they'd get that part sorted first. It's smarter.

[lepetitvoleur]

Not if y're desperate an' gotta work fast. Then you just grab what y'can and hope you can make use a it, later.

[toldinthebook]

I guess. [ But so not any better ] What's your opinion on the place?

[lepetitvoleur]

Not so good, madame. It rains a lot an' the town is très ennuyeux.

But the people are nice, I guess. Some a them.

[toldinthebook]

The people brought here or the others?

[lepetitvoleur]

The natives, I s'pose. If that's what they are. Kind, prob'ly more than the others.

Dunno about the rest a us on this... _{( He gestures vaguely at the tablet. )}

[toldinthebook]

It's probably the same as normal. [ If not worse because kidnapping and different worlds? Who knows ]
