The Dark Fairy had FAIRY DUST. She could feel the magic swell within herself once again, as if flexing muscles after a very very long sleep. Which, in part, was true.
Now magic was different in this land, it was tricky to use... but if she focused enough on it.. it was hers to comand once again. She was, after all, a creature BORN of magic... it would of course come more easily to fairykind more than any other.
She looked at the depressingly bleak appartment that she had decided to reside in. A day ago, she had wept herself to sleep in the characterless, sterile, strange room after being used to such grandness in her fortress in the other world. Now she stood with a smirk on her face, pointing a polished finger at what she found undesirable.
The room expanded, elegant wall "paper" sprang up from the carpet and hit the ceiling, furniture lengthened and plumped into gorgeous accents, chandeliers sprouted from above, and the carpet shriveled away to reveal dark hardwood floors. Richly designed rugs popped into existance and unrolled themselves beneath Maleficent.
The Dark Fairy looked upon her work with slight satisfaction, and then zapped a large fireplace off to the side of the room. She then glanced back at the single, pitiful window of the living room... enlarged it with the touch of her hands, and snapped her fingers. A beautiful stainglass motif of a black Dragon appeared.
She plumped down on her new fainting couch and poured herself some Dr. Pepper. One thing she actually LIKED about this new world.
The change would have to do for now... until she had gained enough power to take the Fairy Convent by force. She held her goblet up, toasting herself, and took a sip.

Almost done, Jez had nearly packed up everything in her apartment, FINALLY She was getting out of here. When the curse broke and Lily- well, Marian was taken from Theo's- er, Prince John's manor Oliver had asked Jez-Robin- or Jacquiar and Lil- Marian to move in with him, he had just enough space to make it work and God knows it was a thousand times better than what she had here. She happily accepted.
She grabbed a few boxes and started for her car outside, as she passed down the hall one of the doors on the left was slightly ajar- revealing an unnaturally perfect apartment. It was far to big to actually fit inside the building and the walls didn't have cracks or holes or anything. She dropped her boxes when she recognized the woman dressed as a nun in the center of the room- It was the Dark Fairy that had nearly had her killed

Maleficent stood up and made a brass hanger materialize out of nowhere. She placed it on a peg and began materializing a dress with the motions of her slender fingers. She stepped back, and tilted her curly head to the side. The garment she had conjured was beautiful... but it was something more befitting of the old world. She made a scissor like motion with her hand shortened the gown, tugged on the neckline until it was plunging.
She stopped. Someone was watching her. Her natural gut reaction was to turn into at dragon and gobble up the intruder... but this was a different time, a different place... and such a gesture would be too INTENSE for the laid back pace of this world. Also, she didn't feel it was in her to transform into a dragon... not yet. She wasn't too eager to turn back into the form that she had been trapped in for over 28 years.
Instead she used magic to drag the passerby into her room and slam the double doors behind her. The woman looked familiar. Maleficent narrowed her eyes... but then she clapped her hands together gleefully.
"My first house guest!" She exclaimed. She poured some Dr. Pepper into another goblet that materialized out of thin air and offered it to the guest. "Refreshment?"

Robins mouth fell open a bit as she tried to comprehend what had just been asked of her from this particular person.
She blinked and somewhat regained her composure,"W-what are you doing here?!!! In my apartment building-" well, technically it wasn't hers.... anymore," I... I'm really more of a diet coke person"

"'Diet Coke.'" The Dark Fairy mimicked. "I should give it a try." She took back the goblet and started sipping from it. Her eyes narrowed at her 'guest' and she tilted her head in assessment.
"Dear gods, why do I keep envisioning you with facial hair???" she suddenly blurted out.
And then the realization hit. "You're that dainty girl who tried to pass herself off as a man..." the Dark Fairy put together. "As if anyone would FALL for it." she muttered, taking a sip. "Well, it's nice to see a familiar face that is NOT of the Fairy Horde origination...."

"and yet I was the most notorious rogue of Sherwood," She smirked with a shrug,"but then I can't expect someone as great and powerful as you to fall for such silly facades "
Jez crossed her arms, it wouldn't be smart to get edgy with this woman but.... it was so hard to resist," I must admit I never thought I see Maleficent in such... modest clothes- almost as ridiculous as my disguise really"

"Sher-what?" Maleficent asked. "Never heard of it... oh wait... that little spit of a forest that Prince John obsessed over???" The Dark Fairy leaned back into her seat, not really impressed. "Hmmmm... You walked too light and pretty to be a believable man. Didn't take a crystal ball to see it really." Though it didn't hurt that Maleficent had also been tipped off from the rogue's aura. It just screamed femininity.
She smiled at Robin's remark of her attire. "Yes, sad rags, to be sure.... but they helped me gain easy access to this town's supply of magic diamonds." She smirked. "I feel better then I have in a long time..." She fished out her fake glasses from her pocket. "Oh... and these helped too." She put them on and showed off her profile. "Not all of us can pull off facial growth like you can, dear."

Some of this, Robin realised, should have been taken as a compliment- most of it was insulting- but nevertheless...
She rolled her eyes and started to scoop up her things,"Well, anyway, I actually was just on my way out," she couldn't believe the kind of conversation she was having with this particular individual,"good to see you, enjoy your stay and goodbye" she said with a wave.

Maleficent pointed at Robin and forced the girl to sit back down with a small gesture. She gave a pearly-toothed smile and swished her beverage around in the goblet playfully. "Leaving so soon???" the Dark fairy asked, mocking.
She took one last sip and stood up, circling around the luxurious seat where the rogue was held. "You know, in a different world, I would have placed you in a high tower by now, under some sort of devilishly concocted curse, surrounded by killer beasts or vegetation... whilst watching your true love try desperately to free you. I'm sure you DO have a true love, yes? Who LOVES facial hair on a woman???" Maleficent laughed to herself. "It's sort of a hobby of mine... watching true love FAIL..." She was gazing out the window now, almost lost in thoughts of a time long ago. A time when good intentions turned to ill intent. The Dark Fairy broke her glance, freeing herself.
"But this is a new age... a new world... and all of that just seems so archaic and pointless, now." Maleficent folded her arms in front of her, gazing down mercilessly at her hostage. "No... I have something far more USEFUL to me in mind..."

The last time she'd been thrown in a tower it didn't hold her too long- and the maneating-shrubbery might have been a bit of a problem but Robin-if not Jezabel- was confident that even if she had truly been planning to imprison her in such a tower she would one way or another find a way out; but this was obviously an empty threat. If she had to guess this 'New Word' was giving The Dark Fairy a bad case of culture-shock.
Even so Robin played along," and what might that be? It looks to me like you've got everything in control' she gestured to the rather luxurious surroundings from her chair- she smirked a bit thinking that had this been a few weeks ago this was the sort of building that if you kept anything too 'pretty' your apartment was more likely to be broken into(not that if would have been an issue for Maleficent),"What could a simple, 'dainty' cross-dresser like myself do for someone as.... " she paused as if looking for the more appropriate word than the one she would have liked to use," accomplished as yourself"

The Dark Fairy smiled. The girl had spunk. Robin knew exactly what Maleficent was capable of... and yet still with the SASS.
Maleficent got up and waved her hand in front of her new large window. Instantly an image of downtown Storybrooke appeared with cars rushing back and forth. "These... metal, horseless carriages..." She said, pointing to them as they zipped about. "I would like to learn how to drive one." She glanced back at Robin and saw her expression. "The mines have a LIMITED supply of diamonds... I can't very well WASTE my magic reserves by simply 'POOFING' all over the place."
"No...I need to acquire one of these strange carriages and master how to command it..." she concluded, looking back at the image. "... And YOU will help me."

A car....? Robin blinked. A switch went off in her brain all of a sudden, she decided to have a bit of fun....
"you mean.... an Auto-mobile?" She said playing a worried expression on her face," Maleficent- you don't know what powers you would be meddling with.... These 'Auto-mobiles'.... they're dangerous- it'd be best for someone like you to risk it"

Maleficent arched an eyebrow.
"Strange... for being such DANGEROUS contraptions EVERYONE seems to be using one..." the Dark Fairy said flatly. "Even youths barely out of childhood. Tell me, are you THAT deficient that you are afraid to use them?" She sighed, raising a hand at Robin. "Then I suppose I have no use for you after all. Tell me, would you rather I snap your neck quickly, or would you rather be turned into a rodent?"

Robin grinned,"Alright alright, everyone uses them, you've got me," She leaned back in her chair, she didn't buy for one second that Maleficent would use any sort of magic to kill her- Mal would probably think of it as a waste.
"If you would kindly allow me to get up I can show you how to drive a car, we can talk about getting a hold of one for you to use after that" Robin said with a casual smile,"After all owning a car of your own is a VERY big responsibility 'young lady', and I want to make sure you can handle it"

Was... was that a PATRONIZING tone coming from the crossdresser???
Mal gritted her teeth. She would have to deal with it. Making the young woman a mere bloody smere on the new carpet would be an aweful waste of magic.
"I think I can handle it." Mal said, walking over to Robin, waving her hand to void the spell that prevented the girl from leaving. "But if you try to run before you teach me this.." She leaned in close to the girl's face. "...just know that I will hunt you down, gut you, and then go after ALL whom mean dearest to you. It's a small town. It would be easy enough to find out who they are..."
The Dark Fairy's face suddenly turned very cheerful, as if they were the BEST of friends. "Now let's go drive a CAR!" She exclaimed, liking the simple word. She made her way to the door, blonde curls bouncing behind her.
