The Doorway: a panfandom game

Well, one thing remained has constant across universes. Cops are still really bad at pranks.

ICHABOD CRANE:

If you could go anywhere in the US, where would you go?

Do you think it's dumb luck I haven't encountered any backlash about you know what yet, or only a matter of time?

[ EMMA: ]
Did you Love, we have to stop taking work from fans. I'm certain I'm being sent on another goose chase.

[ MARY MARGARET: ]
Have you spoken to Emma?

[ REGINA: ]
You're all back in the right body, I hope?

[Filtered to Emma Swan]

I'm starting to think we need a new Sunday night ritual: I bring you some hot cocoa with cinnamon and apologize for all the stupid, selfish things I'm doing in our future back home.

[ TEXTS TO EMMA: ]
» Supposing our luck failed and we woke up to find ourselves changed...
» Would you still marry me if I weren't pretty?

[ SHERLOCK HOLMES ]

I'm told you have a detective agency. How does one go about joining you?

That is, if you think my skills would help.

[ EMMA SWAN ]

Are you hiring? I have special skills.

Woke up in bed with Robin Hood. Regina Mills, you are one lucky woman.

( Regina )

Oh, yeah, if you're me now, try not to eat anyone. There's blood in my fridge.

Someone could have warned me about the overnight memory dumps and what goes with it. Ow ow ow ow


[Adam]

Get over here, husband.

This constant need to assure others that the unseasonably cold weather is not my fault does get terribly old after a while. One little flurry, and the fingers immediately point to the queen in the ice dress.

I can understand the reasoning, but honestly it is not me. Not intentionally

Also, why is there such madness in March? I've gathered that there are educational establishments holding tournaments, but what is the purpose?

Does this mean I get to put astronaut on my resume now?

How's everyone feeling?

Filter: OUATverse

Everyone check in? I just want to make sure we're all doing okay. I've bee sleeping a lot lately, and taking care of Sam. You all hanging in there?

[Filtered to Mary Margaret, Emma Swan]

Is there a trick to True Love's Kiss?

[Filtered to Jamie Moriarty]

I can't awaken Regina.

FILTERED TO MARY MARGARET BLANCHARD:

Mom

I want to be with you and Neal. I think I can get Killian up long enough to come over there so we don't disturb you and the baby much.

Please?

FILTERED TO KILLIAN JONES:

get up

we're going to my mom's.

Sam's is closed until further notice. To no one's surprise.

It's been closed since much earlier today, but I haven't been feeling up to saying that until now.

ONCE UPON A TIME FOLKS:

Ruby's sick too, she's with me. We're looking after each other. Figured we should probably try to keep to ourselves once she started feeling bad too. She's sleeping right now.

A lot's been said about sunsets, but I always liked early mornings. I can't remember how many times I'd stay up just long enough to see the sun rise, and people start their days. New York's not as quiet as Sleepy Hollow was, but mornings still have the same feel. I guess it's that every morning's a new start, and I had no idea what would happen, but nothing bad had happened yet, so I could imagine... maybe this time, things would turn out better. Later - after I met Crane, go figure - I started to dread sunsets. That meant we were running out of time. Sunrise meant we'd survived to see another day. We got a new start. So maybe I was onto something when I was a girl after all.

Or maybe breakfast tastes better when you've been up all night.

EMMA SWAN:

You were right.

I think the Lady Aurora has been taken as well.

The longer I am here, the less comfortable I am with the ephemeral nature of this Tesseract's strange curse. I may not fully understand this world, but I do wish we had a bit more say in it.

( Delivery for Mary Margaret Blanchard )

I can say that I do miss the spring.

Spring in Arendelle was quite a sight and one that I am going to miss. I fear I'm also missing Anna's birthday...and her wedding. Neither of which I intended to miss. Not after all of those missed years and the time lost being apart.

There's little I can do about it here, I know. That doesn't make it any easier.

As much as I enjoy the times when our show isn't airing here, I have to admit that for once I'm curious to see what happens next.

[ EMMA: ]
So, I've been thinking.

[ MARY MARGARET: ]
How are you holding up?

EMMA SWAN:

Crane's being unusually difficult to understand today. First he asks me if I've always been this friendly with Sherlock, and then he asks me if I think Sherlock's losing his hair. Now he won't explain why. You're getting married, you've got to have more insight into how a guy's mind works.

David's gone.

To everyone who knew and loved him: I'm so sorry. There's no good way to break the news of a Tesseract departure, is there? But please know that your friendships have meant so much to him, and to me.

God, he won't even remember his own son when he's

I'm afraid I'm going to have to take the rest of the week off. Assignments will be collected next week instead. All I ask is that you enjoy the extra free time and, if you can, use it to try something new in this world. I'd love to hear about your experience when we meet again.

[Anne Blythe]

Do you think you could hold down the Youth Center without me for a few days?

[Emma Swan]

He was so happy to have this time with you here, you know. And to see you so happy with Killian. I'm glad he got the chance to.
