Seems to be a recurring problem here lately. People disappearing, being lost, just missing in general.
[And while she's sure that's all very important to the people affected by it, it isn't to her, so she'll just continue being completely nonchalant about it.]
Not sure why it's happening, could be Wonderland, could be something else. Don't really care what it is to be honest.
[That's about where her flippancy about the whole thing ends. Now she's mostly bitter. Probably not really a surprise that she's annoyed about something.]
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be affecting things that I rather wish it would. A pity, really. Then again, it's about what I've come to expect from this place. Seems to rather enjoy keeping me from getting what I want.
[Yeah, she's sort of mad that none of the people she dislikes have disappeared or whatever. And she's decided to vent about this in public because that will totally make things better.]
I suppose I should just be grateful there's no singing or trips to a certain town or anything else like that accompanying this.
[She's still angry about those events. Probably never going to stop being angry about them either.]

[Now he was just waiting for the rest of her memoirs to come through.]
But shouldn't ya be more concerned that folks are disappearin'?
[Video]
Why should I care? Like I said, it's not affecting me.
[Video]
Perhaps it will once you are the one to follow in their footsteps.
[Video]
Follow in their footsteps? Not going to happen. I'm not going anywhere.
[...wait, no actually she does want to go somewhere. Whatever, it sounded better that way, she's not going to correct it.]
[Video]
[Video]
[...that applies to basically everyone here that isn't herself though.]
[Video]
[Video]
[That's kinda...the whole reason she's the way she is. Nobody cares what Zelena wants except Zelena. Or they do care and don't want it, because her getting what she wants would be bad.]
Word to the wise though? I'd choose my words more carefully if I were you. Not very wise to talk like that to someone wicked.
[Video]
[If she was expecting a pity party, then she was going to be very sorely mistaken.]
Can't say that I see anyone wicked 'round here.
[Video]
[...is the video function broken? No, she's pretty sure that's working.]
Or perhaps you're blind?
[Could be, she doesn't know.]
[Video]
[If he was a teenage girl he would roll his eyes at her.]
[Video]
[Said like it's a big deal. Because it clearly is.]
[Video]
[You know he's heard they're supposed to be very flammable.]
[Video]
[No, see. She tends to throw fire at things. If anything, it's all of you that are the flammable ones.]
Re: [Video]

[Thank you for pointing out the obvious.]
And no, it doesn't make me feel any better.
[Video]
Singing? What's singing got to do with anything?
[Video]
[The look on her face should make it pretty clear that she did not enjoy that particular event.]
Missed out on that?
[Because if she did, then Zelena's just met her and already dislikes her.]
[Video]
[Pardon Skye, she's baffled.]
And I still don't know what you mean with singing. Was there a roving pack of boybands? What?
[Video]
[Odds are she doesn't even know what that is. Not too many of those running around Oz, the Enchanted Forest, or Storybrooke.]
Everyone had to sing. Rather difficult to get anything done when Wonderland forces you to have a duet with someone you despise.
[Not to sound like a broken record or anything, but it's probably obvious that she's still angry about this.]
[Video]
[Skye, you'd think, would get the picture magic was involved. And she will. Eventually. In the meantime, she's having a moment.]
....Did they follow you around with a karaoke machine?
[She almost looks like she's intending to laugh at the idea.]
[Video]
No.
[At least she doesn't think so.]
There wasn't. No machines involved really. Just a bad habit of bursting into song whenever you open your mouth.
[And whiteboards and invisible backup singers and a bunch of other things she's not getting into.]
[Video]
[ She says, hopefully. Because she doesn't like the implications of this. ]
[Video]
[She has better things to do than get trashed. Like complain about life and threaten everyone.
Okay, she could probably do that while drunk too, but she's completely sober.]
[ video ]
[ Peter is so very intrigued. Meeting a woman that's green is just--highlight of his life. He does enjoy meeting the people are different here. ]
It does like taking away people. [ It took away Derek. He's torn between being upset and having a party thrown in his absence. ] Is it not taking away your undesirables?
[ video ]
She'll take the compliment, but really Peter, flattery won't get you very far here unless you have a time machine or something along those lines.]
Exactly. Seems like whatever happens, they're still here. I was hoping this most recent wave of...whatever it is, would thin their numbers a bit.
[Look, she can pretty much count the number of people she needs around on one hand, so yeah. Pretty disappointed by what's going on over here.]
[ video ]
[ Peter's learned that staying out of their way is much easier. Especially when they want to spend all their energy outing you to the general public. The public that are hunters and have guns. ]
I have a group I'd rather avoid as well, but it seems they still hold some grudges.
[ video ]
[She never gets what she wants, and that's why she has to steal a baby and cast a time travel curse to fix it all.
Because apparently she can't just try something that isn't stupidly complicated and involves multiple felonies.]
But our situations are a bit different. I'm not avoiding my undesirables. I have no reason to.
[She just doesn't go out of her way to speak with them in person because ugh, why can't most of you be involved in stupidly complicated time travel.]
Still want them gone though. It'd certainly brighten up my day.
[ video ]
[ Peter is used to people and stories not getting the complete history right. He's certain the stories that Allison has told most of the people here are wrong. Twisted to make Aunt Kate look innocent. ]
Avoiding is necessary when they wanna lynch you for even looking at their precious new friends the wrong way.
[ He's made his own friends though. Friends he feels secure enough in to not be that threatened. Scott and Isaac are hardly a threat. It's Allison and Lydia he worries about. ]
Perhaps you'll get lucky and they'll get lost in those woods.
[ video ]
[She just knows that some people know her story and apparently have a bunch of the facts wrong.]
Not really surprised they got that wrong too, but I do appreciate hearing about it.
[That's as close as a thank you, she thinks she looks pretty too as he's going to get. Not really big on thanking others here.
And normally she wouldn't really ask about his problems, because it's usually all about her, but hey, she'll ask. Not every day she meets someone who's apparently having similar problems.]
But really, not even a glance? Even I can do that without any problems.
[Mainly because they can't really do anything about it as far as she knows, but still.]
And I doubt they'd get lost forever. I'm not that lucky. After all, it's happened before, not here of course, and they managed to get out just fine.
[Stupid Neverland. Probably could've saved her some problems if some of them hadn't come back from that little adventure into Peter Pan's mystery forest.]
[ video ]
[ Crooked and terrifying. She truly was just terrifying. No offense to Margaret Hamilton. But he's finding he vastly prefers this version of her. ]
I'm the bad guy for them. Which--I suppose is something they think is contagious. [ Plus Peter's a damn good liar. If he can make Mary Margaret like him after everything. Well. He supposes he can see their anger. ]
They're teenagers. They haven't quite realized that sometimes--people die.
[ And sometimes Peter kills them. ]
Perhaps you could make them get lost? Impromptu scavenger hunt.
[ video ]
Perhaps they'll grow out of it.
[She's not really buying that one. Most people where she comes from don't seem to actually...change over time like that.
Including her.Anyways, the stupidity of youth aside, there's a somewhat thoughtful look on her face as she actually considers that suggestion.]
Scavenger hunts aren't really my style so to speak.
[She doesn't really have a style actually unless hate her sister across all of time and space counts.]
But, I have been told to that I need to change my routine.
[By Captain Hook no less.]
So who knows? Perhaps that's the exact sort of change of pace I apparently need.
[She'll consider it! Congrats Peter on being one of the few people whose suggestions aren't basically met with her throwing said opinions in a metaphorical trash can!]
[ video ]
I think only one of them--well two of them really have grounds for being angry. One of them is my nephew and considering the fact that I killed his big sister to get something probably does make me a villain for him. Possibly for a girl as well who I may or may not have used to bring myself back to life. In the process there might have been some psychological damage. [ He holds a hand up to pinch his index finger and thumb together. ] A very small amount. I think she's more mad about her reputation than anything else.
[ Probably also the fact that he exploited her and made her poison her friends are one point. That might have made her mad. ]
Keeping it fresh is what keeps them on their toes. Or alternatively knocks them onto their asses.
[ Peter's always been very good at keeping his routine different. The only thing that remained was the end result. Power. ]
Try one during a full moon. [ He smiles. ] I hear they have werewolves here.
[ video ]
Are there now?
[That's news to her, but she really doesn't pay attention to things that don't involve ridiculously complicated time travel plots and/or destroying Regina. Sort of the problem with being so single minded about things. Despite being here for months, she misses stuff like that. Because it's all revenge plan all the time with her.]
Have to say, that would certainly make a scavenger hunt that much more interesting.
[ video ]
Yes. Wild ones too. Full moon comes and some of these little wolves don't have control either. Some do, but others turn into full on raging beasts.
[ He's heard the growls. He's got control though. Control is key. Peter's a werewolf, but he knows how to keep himself grounded during a full moon. ]
They could paint the forest red with your enemies.
[ video ]
[She frowns. It really does sound great, she's not going to lie about that.]
Unfortunately, I do need some of them alive, and they're the type to follow the others in.
[
Plus, there's the whole thing with her sister and werewolves from the tie-in comic that doesn't contradict canon.]Other than that, it's a lovely plan. Really. Between that and what you said before, I can't imagine why they don't like you.
[...or well, she can, but it doesn't really bother her in the slightest.]
[ video ]
Those are the worst kind. Hero self sacrificing types. Bummer. A bite or two could also ruin their day? [ Mostly in the sense that one bite would make them one of them. ] But then you'd have to deal with them turning into a werewolf and that could open a whole new set of problems.
[ Peter practically beams when compliments him. His smile widens and his eyes flash a bright blue color. ]
Poor taste?
[ video ]
Yes, it certainly would make things worse. Probably. And yes, I'd certainly say poor taste. You seem like quite the charming individual to me.
[...seriously, this is pretty much the first positive conversation she's had in...forever.]
Considering I'm hardly well-liked either, it's definitely poor taste all around.
[Then again, if people liked her even though she was trying to remove them from history, that would just be weird.]
no subject
You're too kind. [ Most people would call his reverting, but Peter would like to tell them to stuff it. He's been too good since he met Mary Margaret. He doesn't care for it. He'll do anything to tip the balance. ] Peter Hale. And you are?
no subject
[She's completely serious about that. It's been...well, it's certainly been a while that's for sure. But anyways, on to introductions.]
And you can call me Zelena.
[Or the Wicked Witch of the West. That works too. Just don't get her mixed up with her sister.]
