Accepting the apple always ends badly for the woman.

It's okay. Don't fret. I've got a pocket of breadcrumbs, a spindle and some tortoiseshell combs. I'm ready.

Ready for what?

[ Voice ] impossibly April 24 2011, 14:07:26 UTC

The story.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 24 2011, 17:09:04 UTC

What kind of story needs things like that...? [ And what story? She hadn't heard anything about a story. ]

[ Voice ] impossibly April 25 2011, 10:38:21 UTC

One to give children nightmares and- teach them fear of the dark.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 25 2011, 23:28:10 UTC

Are those things meant as a charm against the dark?

[ Voice ] impossibly April 26 2011, 07:45:54 UTC

The only charm is caution. These are the warning signs, the key to unlock the days to come.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 26 2011, 12:30:25 UTC

... that is true. In a place like this - anywhere, you can never be too careful. [ Caution from monsters and people alike. ]

Days to come ... it's going to get worse than it is already?

[ Voice ] impossibly April 26 2011, 13:05:57 UTC

Always.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 26 2011, 14:27:38 UTC

... you sound like you've been here for some time. [ Used to the horrors that the place throws at its inhabitants. ]

[ Voice ] impossibly April 26 2011, 14:39:15 UTC

I'm seventeen.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 26 2011, 15:04:36 UTC

[ Two years younger than Freya. ]

Were you born here?

[ Voice ] impossibly April 27 2011, 02:27:08 UTC

Was I born? Reborn? Weren't all of is birthed by an uncaring stone mother? I lived a vast time and distance from this place, but was I born? Carved me, pieced me together but it got all twisted.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 27 2011, 03:28:00 UTC

[ Er. Uncaring stone mother...? Freya isn't sure what she means by that. Bits and pieces of the conversation yes, she could understand in a fashion, but... it was tricky. ]

How did it get twisted...?

[ Voice ] impossibly April 27 2011, 11:56:41 UTC

No, no, no, no. Cut me open, make me into something I'm not.

[ Voice ] cursedtobe April 27 2011, 16:38:08 UTC

[ Oohhhhh. Now she understood... ]

Why would someone do that to you...?

[ Voice ] impossibly April 29 2011, 05:49:14 UTC

[ a distressed noise: this isn't exactly a happy funtimes topic for her. ]

No!

Use you like a gorram doll, turn you inside out just to see the colour, ask what do you hear, River, what do you see, say ah, River, say ahhh ahhh ahhhhh!!
