[ event: Flashback ]

[clocktowering]

Once upon a time, the people of Storybrooke were characters from the fairy tales we all grew up with. Then the curse hit and everyone was trapped without their memories in the town we know quite well already.

We all know that story, of course, but what about before the curse? Well, that's where this post comes in. There are untold stories from before the curse that we would like to investigate and these flashbacks posts are where you tell them. Post with your character (with a location or plot idea if you wish) and tag others, as long as they are in their fairy tale forms. Sorry Henry and Emma players! We ask that you warn for spoilers in your subject line if you intend to use knowledge gained from tonight's episode (1x16: Heart of Darkness) in your scenario. Thank you!

Remember, everyone: play nice and have fun.

What had she done?

Charlotte stood in one of the windows of the castle, her castle, asking herself that question for no doubt the thousandth time. If only she hadn't let Tuck talk her into going to meet her parents and find out who she really was. If only she could have found a suitor she agreed with before Aragon had attempted to force the issue. If only she hadn't given in to her own selfish wants and married Will when it was offered as a reward for defeating Aragon and his giants.

She would give anything to be back in Robin's camp, a simple friar again. At least there, she could pretend Will loved her, despite what he often insisted that it was nothing. Now, it would probably never happen, especially since she couldn't bring herself to tell him the true. Will hadn't loved him as Tuck, why would he love her as Charlotte?

She sighed and leaned against the window frame, looking out over the kingdom for which she was the crown princess. At least she had secured her people a good king, for she could think of no one better then Will to rule wisely.
