A mad ship party | @two_handed
For a girl practically born fighting, a happy ending means one thing: a chance to explore. And with all the realms united together under Queen Regina's quote unquote "curse", the list of possible destinations seems infinite. Of course, many of these newly connected realms know nothing of Storybrooke or the other realms to which they are connected. Some that she's discovered don't even know that other realms exist. Every new realm is a brand new adventure. It's perfect.
Of course, Alice knows it's not what her Papa - or Robin for that matter - would prefer for her. But she can't help it; she feels sometimes as if she was born to do this, to adventure in far-off places without any real reason other than the sheer joy of it.
Perhaps there's just a little too much pirate in her blood to be content with a simple, domestic life.
This latest journey sees Alice arrive on a dark, gloomy-looking island, built up with run-down buildings that threatened to crumble under as much as a look. The hopelessness of the place is only added to by the sight of the brightly-colored world across the sea from where she stands, looking for all the world like something out of one of those fairy tale movies they make about people like her.
What kind of place is this, anyway?
It's a docked, smashed up ship that catches her attention next, and Alice wanders over to it. Yet another thing on this dismal island that seems to be ruined. "You must've been a beauty," she tells it with a sympathetic frown, a gentle pat on the splintered wood. "Too bad you wound up like this."
If anyone sees her, this girl in modern clothes who's talking to a ship, they'll no doubt think she's completely mad. It's an idle thought she has as she pats the side of the ship, although she lets it pass without much concern.
After all, it wouldn't be the first time.

Harry shakes his head, still looking amused. He just can't imagine it, but hey, stranger things had happened he guessed.
The question makes him shrug, waving his hook to indicate the dilapidated docks and miserable people.
"Look around. What you see is what you get..." he pauses to consider this "Until you get ambushed going down the wrong alley, anyway. The isle is... not the happiest place on earth." he smirks grimly.
He's carved out a home for himself here, territory and friends and a way of life that works for him, but it's hard not to be bitter when you can see Auradon from the shore.
