Her little quip about his obsession with love only served to further infuriate the imp. "You took the power, regardless. Your reasons for taking it are not important. If you didn't want the power, then you shouldn't have grasped at it. And as for love... I may be obsessed with it. I want to destroy it, wherever it exists. I seek to free people from the great illusion that love conquers all."
Rumplestiltskin sneered, looking back at the Queen. "Love complicates things. It dilutes power. It circumvents all natural laws. It entangles and enslaves people. And for some reason, all of you royals seem completely befuddled by it. So if you really think about it, I'm doing you a favor." |

She narrowed her eyes as he went off on his little tirade against love, telling her how her reasons were meaningless. She had never wanted power, she just hadn't wanted to feel helpless any more. She hadn't wanted anyone to be able to make her feel like a scared little girl, and the thought of losing Bigby scared her a lot more than she'd like. Maybe that did make her a slave to love... but it was better than not having him at all.
"Aw, did someone not get enough hugs from mummy when he was little?" She taunted, perhaps unwisely, but his rant was getting to annoy her, and she'd never been good at being civil when she was upset. "Keep your favors, thanks." She responded to his claim somewhat less than gratefully, nearing the corner behind which she could disappear, to pretend that this whole conversation had never happened. |
