Oh, there it is. That smug expression... "No? It /feels/ very personal"

Perhaps Sarah could be of use to the Dark One? "Sarah,.. such a lovely name" A hum, as Rumple's expression quickly shifted to her devious grin. Rolling her r's and bowing most dramatically shd replied... "Rumplestiltskin's my name... deals are my game"

Cue eye roll and judgemental tutting "And how long will that be? Hmmm? Ten, twenty, thirty years time? You have to live your own life, dearie... not be dictated to by what society expects you to be"

A giggle "Yes... Funny" Try mad. "So dearie, what brings you to town?"

It seems her protege has opted for the more timid life... Why does that always happen? First Cora; then Regina; now Lily. "Well, whenever you decide to embrace who you are, come find me. Someone needs to whip this town back into shape"

That can be arranged

*blushes* "Oh too kind!"

A knowing nod. "So the myth is true..." She had heard rumours, whispers, in the Enchanted Forest but this type of magic had always been beyond Rumple's grasp. Perhaps there is more to this witch than meets the eye. "... did you come alone?"

"I'm amazed it isn't me, dearie. I mean..." She proceeds to show off her body. "... LOOK at me!?"

An excited giggle bubbled as she hopped, gleefully, on the spot. "A coven of three sisters no doubt? ..."

"I take it back, the new additions may prove to be invaluable to the town - and its future"

// Ya know, The Mummy is one of my favourite films ever and I never thought there would be people RPing in that verse. I am tempted now... Very tempted.

"That depends dearie... I am a woman of many talents, with many guises" Leaning closer she whispered "The question is, which would /you/ like to see?"

*pouts* "Why do you ruin my fun?"

Toning down her excitement, Rumple cleared her throat and stepped closer to the blonde "Oh? How so?"

"𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘞𝘈𝘕𝘛?!"

There are man ways to remove a heart; mummification is one, but it's not the only option.

Her way is also painless, lest she decides to crush it. But, she digresses. "Well hello dearie!" Rumple cheerfully greets with a infectious grin. "I wonder if you can help me?"

// I bookmarked owed replies. Bit busy at the moment.
