Do you prefer Storybrooke or the Enchanted Forest?

It doesn't matter to me as long as I have my family. I do love the easier access to ice cream.

I wish he remembered you. You guys were friends before and he could use some friends now. And I’m afraid it is true. Someone cast a curse and I don’t think it was Regina. I wouldn’t worry too much about it, Grace. You’re safe and I’m not going to let anything bad happen to you, your dad, or anyone in this town.

Thanks, Emma. We really appreciate everything you do for us. I know it’s not easy having to be the Savior all the time but you’ll always be our friend first and we’re here for you too. I know Henry doesn’t remember me but he’s always welcomed to hang out. Maybe go out for ice cream or something. Does he still like chocolate?

[ask-gracehatter]

I hope you're doing okay, Grace. I'm sorry Henry doesn't remember you.

Hey Emma! I'm alright, I guess. I wish Henry remembered. Papa and I really missed you guys even it was just for a short time. Is it true a whole year had passed? Why don't we remember anything?

[ask-gracehatter]

What’s the last thing you remembered before you ended up back in Storybrooke?

I was holding on to my Papa and thinking about our old cottage and our tea parties together. I guess I fell asleep or something but then I woke up in my bed. Everything looked the same as I left it.

I'm not sure myself, sweetheart. But even if we won't remember Paige and your other parents, remember that's only temporary, okay? And we'll be together and we'll have tea parties and collect mushrooms in the forest playing tag and all the things we've done before. We are not losing each other, not this time, and I'll be by your side all the time.

That will be nice. I always want to do those things and I don’t care where we are. I’ll be right by you too, Papa. I just hope everyone’s gonna be okay. Whatever happens, I’ll try to be strong enough to remember how much I love you. So much! Like a billion stars!

[ask-gracehatter]

Stick close to me, okay, my princess? We won't be separated this time, I promise. It'll be okay. I won't leave you again.

I'm a little scared, Papa, but I know we'll be okay as long as we're together. What do you think is going to happen to us? I don't want to lose my memories again.

What is the one thing you're excited to see or do again in the Enchanted Forest?

I would love to see our old cottage again if it still stands and maybe play hide and seek in the woods like we used to. I also would love to see my friends from school again... but it won't be the same without Henry. I heard he can't come back to the Enchanted Forest with us. He just got home and... now that I think about it, I'm not that excited to go back anymore...

[ask-gracehatter]

Are you scared of this new curse? Or are you excited to go back to the Enchanted Forest with your dad?

I'm not really scared and I know I'll be fine as long as my Papa's with me but I know I'm going to miss a lot of the things I'm used to having in Storybrooke. Like will I be able to take my bike back with me? Or is there a way I can play my video games there too?

[ask-gracehatter]

Henry isn't Henry. Be careful when you see him out and about, Grace. He's dangerous.

What do you mean he isn't Henry? I don't think he's dangerous. Maybe a little tired and traumatized from what he went through. I read Neverland makes you forget and can kind of change you so I understand if he doesn't want to hang out right now. He needs to spend time with his family anyway.

[ask-gracehatter]

How happy are you to see Henry back?

Really happy! Except he didn't seem to remember me. It was weird. I did read that Neverland makes you forget but I didn't think he would forget his own friends. Maybe he was just tired. I could invite him over to play video games again. I just got Mario Kart!

[ask-gracehatter]

So you're the famous Grace that I've heard so much about? I'm Peter, by the way. We'll be working together. It's incredible, really, how after all these years in the industry you still have that same innocent presence. But I can sense that there's more to you than meets the eye, isn't there? Tell me about yourself Grace--the real you.

Yeah, it's great to finally meet you! It's an honor really. I don't know about innocent presence. I'm definitely not the same little kid in pigtails anymore.

Actually, it's about time I got a project that, after reading the script, could actually be rated-R! I never thought I'd see the day.

Hollywood AU

Grace Paige: 19, Child star / teen starlet

Grace was famous for starring in a sitcom when she was a child and blockbuster films. She was as famous as the likes of other bankable child stars and often came with the stage parents drama and a toxic living environment. They did not treat her like their daughter but instead, a meal ticket. She found herself spending more time with her Uncle and godfather, Jefferson, who was a successful stunt performer and coordinator whom she saw more like a father figure to her and enjoyed working with him. She began living with him when they had projects together.

When Grace was 12, her parents divorced and got into a nasty custody battle. Because of the toxic home environment, the judge ruled Jefferson would have full custody.

Grace was often typecast as the cute and quirky kid but since she has passed that stage into a beautiful young starlet, she longs to ditch the cutesy roles and seek out more mature ones.

[ask-gracehatter]

It sounds like everyone is going to be okay since Belle found a way to help them defeat Peter Pan. If they come back safe, what will you do for Emma and Henry?

I'm sure we'll have a welcome home party at Granny's but hopefully, we all do something fun with just the four of us like a day at the beach or a picnic in the park. My Papa would love that. I think he misses Emma a lot so it would be nice for them to hang out again. Maybe I can play some kickball with Henry. It's been a while since the last time we played. I would also throw a party for Belle! She's a hero!

[ask-gracehatter]

Do you think you'll ever start to age? It must be weird being a kid for as long as you have! Or has time started since the curse broke for you? Do you want to age?

Yeah, I think once the clock started working, Storybrooke also started to change and time started running again. It's weird that I've been in the same grade for twenty-eight years and now that the curse is broken, I realized Henry was the only one that grew up around here. Now that was really weird! We're the same age now but I wouldn't mind growing up. Not too fast, I hope. I still like being a kid.

[ask-gracehatter]

Are you worried about Henry?

Yeah, I am but I know he's going to be okay. He has an awesome family coming to save him and I think he's really brave. I wish there was a way to tell him that we all believe in him and miss him.

[ask-gracehatter]

How close are you to Henry? Did you know that your dad and Emma dated on and off for a bit? If they ever got serious before she called it off, how would you feel about Emma being like a mother figure to you?

Henry's really cool and became better friends. I didn't know my dad and his mom dated. I thought they just came over so Henry and I could hang out more and play video games. I really like Emma too! She's a lot of fun and I think she's a cool mom.
