“ ━ & what proof have you that I was committing such a heinous crime? I should think you would know me better! “
Hands crossed behind her back hide her treasure. She’ll guard it with her life, if need be. It is h e r paycheck, after all.
She’s a superb liar, Maleficent will hand her that.
“And better than I know you, I know the contents of my desk. Really, I had no idea you’d retained a bird’s fancy for shiny objects.”
“Were you looking for something in particular, or have you seen fit to dig through my office drawers on a whim?”
Maleficent had always found birds far more companionable than humans or her fellow fae, but this was...well, it was quite different. She'd turned a bird into a human to save its life, certainly (for who was to say whether a man would hold his blows against any beast besides), and she'd earned a necessary favour, but now that that was done, she had this unusual not-quite-person sort of hanging about her, and she wasn't entirely certain of how to proceed.
Generally, Maleficent's modus operandi would be 'go away,' her fallback line 'don't you have somewhere else to be?' But she found, curiously, that she did not mind the return of the bird-turned-human who called herself Diaval. Indeed, she was almost happy to see her...still alive, of course. She was happy to see Diaval still alive. Therefore, instead of what are you doing here, she said, with nearly pleasant surprise, "You've returned."
“What is your opinion on the nature of the soul?“ Maleficent wondered aloud. At first she’d found what she’d read highly amusing, but the longer she thought of it, the more it vexed her. Was this the driving principle behind the way fairy society was run?
“Soul-draining?” She asked, her brow quirking. “Perhaps for you.” Then she inhaled as though a realization had come to her. “But then again you have to have a soul for it to be drained, so I suppose you must have been fine.” Regina smirked and moved toward the blonde.
“Not so much with my gardening as with my son,” she countered. Tilting her head, she pulled an apple from her basket and held it out in offering. “Apple?”
Maleficent chuckled mirthlessly in response to Regina’s joke at her expense, and eyed the apple she offered carefully. It was a fun idea, poisoning food, but Maleficent didn’t quite see the point when her sleeping curse in particular had to be undertaken willingly. Call her bloodthirsty, but she liked the idea of adding injury to insult.
“I heard once that fairies have no souls, and can only earn them through subservience to humanity,“ she told Regina idly as she took the apple with her fingertips. “Perhaps that explains the tradition of fairy godmothers.“
“Right, the boy. I’ve seen him about town, but not very often in your company, if you don’t mind my saying so. I was under the impression that children were a bit more...present in one’s life.“
//life is nothing if not unpredictable. but i’m back once more, friends! i owe some replies and some messages and one starter, so feel free to like this for a starter! i will also likely find a meme.
Details of Maleficent in 4x14 “Enter the Dragon”… also she and Regina wearing similar colors, too.
What’s the matter, dear? I’m not everything you expected?

Emma was not going to be tricked or deceived by Regina, NO, now she could see that the woman couldn’t currently be trusted to show her loyalty to them, so she was just going to have to go in and do things herself.
But when she walked in, she didn’t expect to see HIM.
❝ WHAT THE HELL is going on here ? ❞
Maleficent was accustomed to people who blazed into places where they weren’t welcome. Neither the initial burst through the locked door nor the exclamation surprised her very much. She took stock of the newcomer and immediately noted that there was something vaguely, hazily familiar about her.
The newcomer was not, however, focused on Maleficent. Her eyes were on Rumpelstiltskin. And why not? Even Maleficent really didn’t care to be dealing with him. Heroism and villainy and all that nonsense were of precious little interest to her. What interested Maleficent was efficiency, and a kind of unity of intention and actions. Rumpelstiltskin possessed neither.
“I beg your pardon, but what entitles you to that information?“
"I might have tuned you out for the last hour, sorry."
"I-what?"

“You seemed to be very emphatic about something. Thought it might have become important since last I checked in.“
dragoninapurpledress “I wouldn’t mind having a nice talk with myself after all the situations we had tonight.”
Nice talk with...herself?
Perhaps she should lower her dosage...just a bit. Little less toadstool next time. “Well, I know I don’t like talking to other people. Why not try myself?“

Regina sighed heavily “You’re on that stuff again aren’t you?” she asked as she walked closer to her. She almost look like she was completely drugged or on a new level of drunk, she worried the blonde might fall over so she prepared herself in case she might have to reach out to catch her.
“No because I knew you wouldn’t get up to let me in and I was worried about you” she admitted, crossing her arms, how did she stand it in this cold castle. She held out her hand as a fire ball appeared and she threw it at the fire place which ignited and began to heat the room.
“If there is one thing I do not need,“ Maleficent replied, leaning rather heavily upon one of her beloved armchairs by the fireplace, “it is for you to attempt to take some sort of moral high ground with me.“
“Worried!“ This exclamation was closely followed by a harsh bark of laughter. Maleficent hadn’t laughed in years. Maybe longer. She couldn’t remember the last time she’d laughed, even at someone’s expense. “Oh, how very sweet,“ she sneered.
The warmth which suddenly emanated from her fireplace dulled her foul mood significantly. Though Maleficent was now perfectly capable of lighting the fire by herself, she often forgot, and wondered vaguely at why she was always so cold and miserable, and why her home was so very dark and lonely. “Hmm. Those fireballs are improving. In speed, at least.“
Did it work?

Regina chuckles as the discomfort fades. “Well I do hear that when you’re locked up indefinitely you lose track of time. I am sorry I didn’t visit more often,” she teases, plucking another one of her apples from the tree.
“Death seems to have done wonders for you,” she comments, eyeing the blonde. “Although that could just be because the last time I saw you, you were caught up in a chandelier.” The Queen smirks.
Maleficent sneers instinctively at the flippant gesture, watches intently as Regina’s fingers curl around the perfect red apple. “Clearly you were very busy with your gardening,“ she replies, barely managing to unclench her teeth to facilitate the effort of speaking.
Instead of adding to her irritation, Regina’s casual reminder of their last encounter cools Maleficent’s temper immediately. She remembers why she’s bothered to watch Regina at all, remembers the harsh disparity between the maddened woman who sought to fight Maleficent to the death and the carefully-controlled woman who stands before her picking apples.
“And you seem to have fared well under the duress of a soul-draining curse. At the very least, you’re a fair bit calmer.“
"You’ve seen this episode six times already! Find a new obsession."
“At the risk of sounding like an errant youth, don’t tell me what to do.“
PSA; MALEFICENT IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN A FAIRY!
This go to all the people who don’t know about the original freaking tale. Maleficent didnt have a name till the disney adaptation of ‘The sleeping beauty’ give her one, she was know in the original tale as the Wicked Fairy Godmother, she was the thirteenth fairy, the one who wasnt invited to the party because the fucking king didnt have enough room for her to sit at their table. This was an insult for someone of her status, so she cursed the king’s baby and yadda yadda. All that jaz.
The freaking point is… MALEFICENT IS A FAIRY, AND IS NOT ONLY THANKS TO HER JOLIE VERSION, OK??! SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN ONE! DEAL.WITH.IT.
