Violence was the building block all of Hansel's life was built on. He had never known peace long enough to have it sink in for him. The childhood he'd shared with his sister and their parents before they had been left in the woods to fend for themselves? That was more of a dream to him than a remembered reality. All he could think about were the hunts he'd survived thanks to his complete faith in his sister to back him up always. Those hunts were his real past. Witches weren't something Hansel wanted in his life. They were simply a certainty for him, past, present, and future.

"You interested in a hunting trip?"

Deirdre had been easy enough to find using the device she told him was a telephone. They called them 'cell phones' which made some sense to Hansel as they did appear to be made in the familiar rectangular shape of a cell. Hansel and Gretel had spent more than a few nights locked in cells courtesy of dishonorable villagers or unreasonable constables. Some people had no idea how to have fun; Hansel wasn't interested in running afoul of those people in Madison Valley. He had a feeling the cells in this future place were a lot harder to escape than any he and his sister had shared.

"I used the cell telephone to find you," Hansel held up the device to show her the dot which flashed to show her last location as posted on the message network, "I am still learning this thing. It can be tricky. Witches though? Those are the same everywhere. They come in two flavors, sometimes three: good, bad, and about to turn bad. I hear this portal goes to a time I'm more comfortable with and there's witches. I like both of these things very much. It doesn't make up for you having to show me how to get by in this time, but it's a start maybe? Something to break up the boredom?"

Hansel was familiar with the aspect of boredom, too. His world might have been more simple in terms of its technological advancement, but it was still filled with people and villages and people who lived in villages. There were only a few flavors of those the same as there were with witches. They tended to be tedious to deal with after a time. Hansel and Gretel made sure to head out of a town as fast as they could following a job. The longer they stayed, the more likely they were to start something unpleasant for those people in those towns. They didn't do well with the routine. He had a feeling Deirdre didn't either.
