“diving head first into a crowd of people is never a great experience,” jack cringed at the memory, rubbing the back of his neck, “i’m pretty sure i knocked over at least half a dozen people, most of them looked ready to kill me.” he paused, giving a half smile, “my favorite ability is easily flying, even if i always hurt myself doing it. that or making snow--snow balls are the best weapons.”

“I love my social skills!” she answered with a smile, “people seem to like me, and that means its easy to get them to do what i want.” she paused, her brow furrowing, “that came out awful. i meant, they’re more inclined to help me, which is nice.” a thoughtful look passed across her face, “insecure about...probably my smarts,” she admitted softly, “i’ve never been the smartest, and i can be pretty oblivious a lot of the times. i hate that about me.”

“I find intelligence most attractive,” ursula responded easily, “how a person thinks is what makes  them interesting, after all.” she paused, tilting her head with a thoughtful look, “least attractive? simple,” she smirked, “weakness. why would i like someone who wasn’t powerful?”

“My favorite potion, darling, would easily be my...’fix it potion’.” a satisfied grin found its way onto her face as she shook her head, pride shining in her dark eyes, “i made it when the first person came to me looking for a way to...get back what they had lost.” she chuckled, “the negative effects vary, seeing as it depends on what exactly its fixing--but the basis of it, is that the user will lose something important. at best, it could be something like...their hair. at worst...” her mouth twisted into a dark smirk, “well, they could lose their humanity.”

“the question should be what adventure have i not dreamed of going on--you’d get a shorter list,” he chuckled softly, a smile finding its way onto his face, “though, the adventure i have wanted to go on most would be one to somewhere far away...perhaps agrabah or the seasonal realms!”

“It’s not that I dislike the man!” john answered with a huff of breath, every comment he’s held back coming to mind. he shook his head, “i simply think he’s trouble. my sister deserves someone better than a scoundrel who--from what she’s told me--doesn’t even seem to care for her as much as she cares for him.” he paused, “i know my sister can make her own decisions, of course she can. but that doesn’t mean i have to like the guy!”

“i’m pretty sure I’ve said some really ridiculous things,” flynn mused with a chuckle, a thoughtful look on his face, “I complained for over an hour about my nose in wanted pictures...I also ranted thousands of times about how strange horses are.” he smirked, “smoothest pickup line? everything i say is smooth, baby. my favorite pickup line, though, is ‘Roses are red violets are blue I didn’t know what perfect was until I met you‘. It’s cheesy, and cheesy looks great on me.”

“The one thing I do when I get tired is down as much coffee as I can,” Tiana answered with a laugh, shaking her head, “but in all honesty, I just remember what my daddy used to say to me--life isn’t going to hand you what you want. you gotta go out there and work for it,” she paused, a sad smile finding its way onto her face, “and i just gotta remember I’m not just trying to make it for me.”
