[In the background of the video the silhouette of what appears to be a spinning wheel is quite visible. Rumpelstiltskin has been...quiet. Contemplating. And as such he's been fairly nonexistent on the Barge since his return as a Warden.]
Mighty timely of you, Admiral. [A jaunty little salute, there.] I would have hated to have been stranded here however long waiting for you to make up your mind.
Let's see...Nygma. Edward Nygma. [Flipping through a few pages of the file with a grin.] Oh, this should be interesting.
[With a snap of his fingers he disappears from sight, leaving an empty room behind. He'll get to any messages for him after he's met with his Inmate.]
[Spam - Edward's Cabin]
[In the instant after he snaps his fingers in his own cabin, he appears in another, leaning on his cane not for support but for a look of gentlemanly confidence, a pose they've both likely held at some point.]
I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

[He steps towards Rumple.]
If you're only here for idle chit chat, it can wait until the evening.

Rounding out your collection?

Are you any good at pool?

[Spam]
Date: 2013-07-01 05:09 am (UTC)Is that going to be something you do often? Because I'm really not a fan.

Date: 2013-07-03 05:57 pm (UTC)I don't care that you have weapons, and I won't until you give me a reason to care.
I don't care if you collect kittens with lasers mounted on their heads.
I don't care if you take mind-altering substances.
I don't care about your games or your plots.
...So long as I know about them. I won't even try to stop you in situations where others might. When you fail or succeed, we'll sit and have a chat about it. If you do something the rest of the Barge finds abhorrent and I am compelled to act on it, I will. If you are in danger from something other than your own machinations, I will intervene when needed.
Beyond that? [He shrugs.] I'm here. And I'll be watching. And I will probably always have something to say, but very rarely will I feel compelled to make you act.
Do you understand? Can we stop dancing about, now?

I'll believe it when I see it. [That was a reasonable enough response.]
Most of them are weapons, yes. I haven't found reason to use them on anyone yet. [A beat, he warily glances to the pile, watching them as if he was certain they were going to disappear.] I might, in the future, if someone attempts to assault me.
