Oh my GOD.

[So someone's back, in their room, and making a video post. She is SUPER PISSED, too. Wow.]

Okay so it was bad enough getting MURDERED, which was awful, by the way, and before you ask NO I don't know who it was other than a TERRIBLE PERSON, but anyway, bad enough getting murdered but then I wake up in the boiler room and come back to my room and find out that someone took my candy stash.

[She spins the tablet around to display a very empty cabinet.]

See? Gone. So I'm pretty sure mysterious murder man is also a candy thief, which is almost as bad.

[She turns it back to her face and sighs.]

Okay yeah sure in the grand scheme of things candy stealing isn't right under murder but look, give me a break. I was dead for... I don't even know how long. What day is it? And my mouth tastes gross, and all I want to do is just have some candy and maybe sleep for a few hours but NOPE.

[She lets out another almighty sigh and stands up and flops on the bed, her face in her pillows to muffle her shout, which is very clearly on the edge of tears.]

I WANT TO GO HOME!

[And the feed ends.]

[The food has stopped. He’s sure that everyone in the hotel has noticed it by now, and he’s sure that everyone’s worried about it. He’s seated on the bed of his room (111, if he hasn’t told you).]

I don’t know how many of you have heard of the Great Depression, or rationing during World War II. Maybe those things didn’t even happen on your world. But I promised I wouldn’t give any history lessons, so I’ll just say that they were some pretty tough times, and I’m sure we’ve all been through some.

I’ve talked to people before about helping your neighbors where you can. In the spirit of that, I have some food I wanted to offer to anyone who needs it. I have a bagel and a grapefruit. The skin’s not wrinkly or anything. I also have six-

[Steve stops speaking abruptly, forehead furrowed as he counts the colorful plastic eggs beside him - the ones that there are definitely not six of.]

Bucky.

[Somewhere offscreen, Bucky glowers at him, extremely uncooperative. ]

You have three to give away.

I had six. [He points it out firmly. He knows what he’s doing and why, but Steve can miss a few meals these days.] You can keep one of them, but only if you eat it yourself.

You're going to live on stale hotel air alone? You're not a plant.

[Bucky doesn't intend to keep it for himself, and he's got a stash of his own he's saving for them both, together with Skye and Fitz. Also maybe Raven.

He crosses over and looks evenly into the video feed. ]

Come if you are starving. If you have other intentions, I will kill you where you stand. [Steve might have noble intentions -- others don't. Starvation makes beasts out of many, and the Winter Soldier protects his own. ]

[Steve moves quickly, ending the feed before Bucky can do any more damage. But not before the beginnings of his protest can be heard.]

Bucky, you can’t just-

Seriously? How the hell am I still here?

[It doesn't feel like she should be. A floodgate of new memories tells her she should be back in Storybrooke trying to track down the Author. Instead of chasing him down, she's breathless from her fight with a solid, stubborn door and feeling more useless than ever.

Without knowing who's still here and who was sent home, Emma doesn't even know who she's looking for. Killian, Neal, maybe Regina. Outside of the three of them, she'll take whatever information she can get.

It doesn't feel like she ever left, but there's no telling how long she's been down here.]

Anybody ever wake up in the boiler room?

[If they have, she wouldn't hate an explanation - or maybe she would, but at least she'd have one. It's better than all the blanks she's been left to fill in on her own, stuck debating whether or not the things she's struggling with fall under the category or "real life" or really shitty dream.

She looks to the screen, her brow furrowed in uncertainty and her lips parted just enough to take in a few extra breaths. Was trapping her down there part of the plan, or a bonus? The only relief Emma finds is from being out of there, left to wander the halls the way she did on their first day.

It feels a lot like starting over, but she's not sure why.]

[Merlin is going to forgo the camera option on the tablet, and the voice option. Why would he use those when there's a perfectly good text function that could be used that doesn't quite hide his identity, but at least people wouldn't be quick to put a face to the name.]

10-97 code no 1. 10-56 kitchen. 10-65. These things seem to work a treat but that's probably about all I can say about things working in this place. Not even the windows like to open, which I believe would be a problem further down the line should this place decide to get warmer. No staff and no way out, and I believe these are all things mentioned previously by others, and I doubt I would need to go through the same initiation rites as others may have. It's pretty obvious that if something can bring us here then they can work at keeping us here. I have bad news for them, and that it's people tend to work harder when they're stressed and this place is primed for just that. Hopefully no-one feels the need to die during our journey to find a way out. I wouldn't want to be cleaning that up. You can all keep the urge to murder your fellow inmates to yourself, we wouldn't want anything untoward happening and that would be counter-productive to the task at hand.

Should anyone feel the need to reply to this, then I want the details of what has been attempted so far and the results so I can go over them before looking further into this. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated in times such as this.
