Ask a Witch

Before the curse swarmed her halls she was Zelena, the Wicked Witch of the West. Feared and loathed by all. But now.. now she walks the corridors of Storybrooke General Hospital as Jade Van Dyne, RN. ---part of the askonceuponanothertime-rp group---

It's sad that both of Cora's daughters became evil... Sad indeed.

I’m not evil. I’m wicked. There is a difference if you care to look before lumping all Mills in the same boat.

[askthejadedmills]

Why monkeys? Like... why?

Because I wanted to, that’s why. Looked to be a useful sort of creature depicted on that charlatan’s board.

[askthejadedmills]

What if I told you your mother died?

Well then. I’d say... well I’m sure she had it coming. I’m surprised it hadn’t happened sooner.

[askthejadedmills]

If your mother never gave you away, do you think things would be different for you now?

Yes. Obviously? I would have never had to deal with anything to do with Oz or that drunk that I thought was my father. My life would have been entirely different.

[askthejadedmills]

It's not easy being green, isn't it?

Are you.. Are you being racist? Because the color of my skin is quite literally the very least of my problems. In fact I’d dare say having an emerald hue makes me look more like Oz’s natural ruler.

[askthejadedmills]

If you're able to achieve your goal, what are planning on doing first?

You really are lacking the whole point and concept of my plan, aren’t you? If I achieve my goal in getting my mother to choose me, I won’t have to do anything.

[askthejadedmills]

Do you think if your dad treated you nicely while you were a child things would be different now? Maybe you wouldn't want revenge?

What do you know of it? Make no mistake that man was no father. And even if he acted the part, why would you think that would magically make everything alright? What so I could go on living the life of a woodcutter’s daughter when a better life should have been mine?

[askthejadedmills]

I know there was no Christmas in the land of Oz, but do you enjoy celebrating it here? Or you don't like it at all?

I’m in Oz. I presume then by ‘here’ you mean the non-magical realm? If so, the holiday was decent enough in theory, I suppose. But I can’t say I cared for it all that much. Its not an event made for someone on their own.

[askthejadedmills]

Do you have plans to go back to Storybrooke?

If that’s where I have to go to get what I want, then so be it. Ingredients can be such fickle things to find, and Storybrooke does hold such potential.

His smile and kindness took her by surprise. Growing up in Oz had built up her defenses, making her always ready to have to fight off those that would hate her for being a witch. Yet he smiled and was being sympathetic.

“Its not ideal, no. Bit like having a limb removed, I suppose. You keep going to use it, and its just not there,” she replied with a shrug. Zelena couldn’t help the quick laugh at his wink. “That so? You must be handy to have in a pinch, able to break into things without magic. I’ll admit something warm sounds nice right about now.”

[askthejadedmills]

AU: Are you the reason for the crazy storm? Curious minds would like to know. Also, I just have to say that I think you're awesome, and I wouldn't blame you if you were responsible for the storm.

Curious minds really think I’m responsible for this? Its a bloody snowstorm. Not my element at all. Sure I’m not above trapping people in frozen tundras, but I never stick around and join in. Thanks for the support though, I suppose.

[askthejadedmills]

Sorry, I probably should know you. I think I've seen you somewhere before. maybe in the hospital? Anyway, I'm Jefferson. Were you to come grab a nice book too, or just took shelter in the first place you found open?

Yes, I was a nurse there for some time. So you might’ve seen me. And no need to apologize as I can’t recognize your mug either. I’m... Jade, and.. the latter. I tried using my magic, but of course this storm couldn’t be normal. Not here, now could it.

Hello Everyone!

We are so excited to announce this month’s AU Weekend!

The theme for this month is: Snowed In, and it will span from Midnight PST on Friday, December 4th, to 11:59 PM PST on Sunday, December 6th. On Saturday, December 5th we will hold a vote to see if the majority of members are interested in extending the AU to a full week, or to move back to our regular canon as scheduled.

Snowed In:

Everyone has been reunited in Storybrooke and the Snow Queen has come to town. She’s has caused a seemingly never-ending snowfall and everyone has been snowed in. None of the magic users are able to access their powers which renders them unable to escape where (and with whom) they are trapped. Will they be able to survive each other? Only time will tell.

The following list details who has been snowed in where:

Trapped in City Hall

Emma Swan, Granny Lucas, Belle French, and Peter Pan

Trapped in the Library

Snow White, Neal Cassidy, Jefferson, and Zelena Mills

Trapped in Granny’s

Rumpelstiltskin, Regina Mills, David Nolan, and Aurora

Trapped in the Sheriff’s Station

Ruby Lucas, Henry Mills, Cora Mills, and Tamara

If anyone has any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask the Mod Team!

Why haven't you used the silver slippers to get to Regina so you can enact your revenge on her?

My revenge won’t be to be near her. I intend to replace her entirely. So the slippers aren’t the only magic I need just yet, but thanks for playing.

[askthejadedmills]

Why cast curses when there are much easier ways to get revenge? Or is that just a witch thing?

There are easier ways are there? Really? When the target of my revenge lives in another realm entirely? When the other subject is quite literally heartless and didn’t even need her heart removed to ditch me in the woods and has never looked back since?

No, no. By all means go on and tell me all these simple ways, as if I were just being overly dependent on being a witch.

[askthejadedmills]

Why do you think revenge is the best way to solve everything?

Why not?

It is the only solution, my pretty. Regina has been entirely ungrateful in regards to all she’s been handed in life. Doesn’t that make you sick? Why shouldn’t I upend it all? Go on. Give me a good reason.

[askthejadedmills]

AU) What's it like having wolf senses and ablities? Have you turned into a wolf yet?

No, no I have not. In fact that little fact managed to slip my mind until just now, thank you very much.

Is what why everything is so.. much? Oh I do not care for this at all. Who do I see about fixing this?
