Regina has a bad dream, and an even worse reaction to it.
Mary Margaret isn’t quite herself anymore. And guess who she wants to go and see?

Emma tries to talk to Henry about Regina, but he’s more than a little resistant. She also tries to talk to Regina about the state of the curse, and that conversation doesn’t go as planned, either…
Also, sorry I had to split this into two parts on LJ. Apparently the post was TOO LONG. What’s with me writing these endless chapters? I think I might need a more lethal editor…
Mary Margaret has some words of advice for Regina, who finds them both shocking and illuminating, while Emma tries to find ways to break the curse.

Emma goes to Regina to ask some difficult questions. But the answers aren’t as straighforwards as she might have expected, and neither are her reactions to them.

This chapter is LONG. Had to split it on LJ as it wouldn’t fit into one post, sorry. You may blame me for simply writing too much. Apologies. ;)
Emma’s in a bad mood and argues with Mary Margaret. Her mood doesn’t much improve when she meets David on the street, either.
Oh well. C’est la vie in Storybrooke, right?

Emma’s angry with Regina. No change there, then. But anger tends to come with a price, especially between Emma and Regina…

Snow White was, everyone agreed, a good child. The sort of child that anyone would want. The sort of child who received indulgence where other children were barely tolerated. Her manners were impeccable; her curiosity about life unstoppable. What little she’d gleaned from her governess had lulled her into a sense of security, creating a world in which Snow’s father was the fount of all kindness and everyone in his realm lived in peace and harmony.
Innocence, it seemed, made a bedfellow of ignorance. Little Snow had no knowledge of the poverty on the king’s land, nor did she ever need to, according to Leopold’s instruction. His child had already lost her mother; he saw no need for her childhood to be taken from her with the appearance of grim realities on the horizon.
Regina had found Snow’s naiveté endearing when first they’d met.
Now it disgusted her.
