Rumple had been out making deals like he always did, though that did not mean he forgot the Snow Queens words or had not heard that the Evil Queen had been there to see her as well, not something that could be really good for him, but he knew he had more power then the Evil Queen so he was not worried greatly, yet he still liked to know when new enemy's came into play, so he could be mindful of them.

With winter rolling in The snow queen was taking advantage of the cooler weather of autum, soon she would set off on her annual ride bringin winter to the realms for now she would walk enjoying the brightly changing colors as green turned gold and red as seasons turned, accepting her soon to come. She hadn't been expecting to come across Rumpel again but seeing him she smiled faintly
"Well well, it's a pleasure to see you again... I hadn't thought we would cross paths again... have you rethought my offer, I'd still like to be friends." she said leaning against a tree were she pressed against it frost turned the moss crisp and white and froze the leaves in place what ever was green curled as the snow leeched the life from it as she looked over him
"You never came back, that's disappointing, those like us with power should get along, there are so few of us." she said shifting drifting to the next tree running her hand along it allowing frost to crystallize across it.

Rumple was dressed in his leather like normal, though he hardly felt the cold perhaps the reason being that he was a dark beast. Though it was a surprised to run into the Snow Queen, perhaps unsure what brought her here, though he did not have to wait long for her to give some hint of her reason for being here.
"It is bound to happen, even in a world as big as this your majesty" He nodded lightly, knowing it was best he did though it did not mean that any ruled him, at least not any more.
"Though it is a bit of a surprise that it comes before, the second snow that would bring you back" Rumple watched her, he had not really rethought the offer, he meant what he said before that friends was not something a beast as him had "I cannot say I have & you should know well that many with power do not get along, because of that fact alone. I am still a dark beast, one that has had no friends since this all be gain & I still do not know how to take to the idea, though I also hear that you have had others visited & if not mistake found friendship with" Though that kind of friendship was only a ticking bomb, in his views at least when he had dealt with the Evil Queen, so far.
He knew that he could of lied, to please her yet even with the beast he was it was not in him to lie so openly, he might twist the truth or just leave something hanging when making a deal, since it was not asked, but he did not lie when he made deals, so he was not starting now.

The snoq queen wore an elegant gown the coole icy blue fabric was cut asymetriclly with a hip high slit on one side exposing a dark blue shimmering fabric dotted with crystals, around her hips slung a belt of silver and crystal and maching Icy crystals perched in an elegant crown on her head her pale hair would in a tight bun.
"true enough I suppose, but it'd be much more fun to run into someone who was happy to see me." she said shifting turning around one tree in in a puff of snow coming out from behind another behind rumple with a smile
"Autum is a time when I can wander out and start to bring frost as long as I bring no snow, so I am enjoying the changing of the leves, it is a beutiful thing to see." she said walking around him each foot step had froast spreading across the ground the temprature dropping steadily the longer she was there.
"That's not true the Queen Regina and I had a most delightful conversation, we are friends." she said waving a hand dismissing his argument "You are simply a fuddy duddy wishing for nothing but to be lonely, why anyone would wish to be alone is beyond me." she said grandly as she walked gesturing
"A brilliant talent like your's and you abuse it by making such deals... is that why you don't make friends because you'd rather make a deal and have gain? I'll never make a deal with you your better off being my friend."

Rumple smirked "If there I was not happy to see you in some way, you would not be standing here I assure you" He did not move as she walked around him, it was not a comfort though, he was not going to show fear ether. There was no missing as the frost started to take over much of the land scape, though it was not his place to do it so he would not stop her form doing her job.
He giggled lightly "I have dealt with the Queen & I am sure that her friendship is not as you see friendship being, how ever it is your choose to make" He smirked "It is not being alone that bothers me, just as I said I have always found the need for reason to have friends or that, even if it comes in the form of a deal. Not that it has ever happened, not something I have made part of a deal yet"
"I make deals because, people want to & who am I to turn a way a deal or at least most" He smirked more with her last words "Is that a warning, I hear with being your friend or not? Besides I need reason to be so called friends, deals aside my nature always wants to know what will entail with such a thing, like would this friendship be one that goes as far as if you are in need I would help or as simple as being one to speak with, for friendship is a broad range of things & I am not one to just into things, with out knowing or having an idea what I am getting into"

the queen chuckled "I suppose that's true if you think you can combat me, we are both very strong magiclly, While I may have the power of a season behind me your have age and experience I think we're matched fairly evenly." she said as she walked each step a drift her might notice her feet were bare pale toe peaking out from under her skirts with each movement.
"Why what ever do you mean?" she asked surpised "The queen is very kind, a bit reserved but nice enough, we sat and talked for quiet a long while... not only of royal things but of female things." at that she laughed "I admit I had forgotten the pleasure of female company again, it's a delight to just sit and talk as a woman once more." she said lightly.
"A warning? No... I wouldn't threaten one such as you, not only because really I have no reason to but because I would like us to be friends, not to gain anything but...well actually.." she paused turning "Your right I do want soemthing. In being friend what i seek is someone to talk to... someone to share things with, that would be the exchange of being friend, naturally by having someone to talk with you would get the same companionship someone to confide in should you choose to.. and well, we are grown people, should any needs arise I'm sure we can come up with an arrangement to slake any bodily needs, no strings attached." she said simply.

He heard her chuckle with her words "I only combat if I must" He not only had like age & experience, but he had experience fighting, that part of him never left, much as the love of his son never did likely making him the beast he was that made deals & everything.
"True she can be nice when she wants & a devil the next, I might be a devil, but I do not act like I am not, that is the difference between use, I do not lie, speak in riddles & in questions, but I do not lie. How ever the Queen I cannot say she has not, at least so I hear, so it is best to be mindful until you are sure of her intent"
He giggled lightly "Though she does have me beat in one area, I cannot speak with you of female things, as she would & could, as well has, as you say she has. Listen of course, give advice though it is not the same"
As he listened to her words of warning & being friends, he smirked when he heard her admit that there was a reason she wanted to be friends, after all most had there reasons for anything. Though her last words, did get his attention, at first he though he heard them or more though he was missing what she meant, but he had not & he was not sure how he took to the idea.
True he did not feel love, because his heart was so dark yet that did not mean he did not remember what it was being male, how ever such needs had not come up, though at least if they did he had an out let so to speak. And with that thinking he was, not sure he would turn her away if she was in need, time would tell yet at the moment he could not say that he would right at the moment.
"I suppose that, if that is all you want out of such friendship, there is no harm, that I see at the moment"

she smiled moving swifter now her light steps melding into a dance of sorts "I dislike combat, most cannot with stand the cold of the snow and Ice I weild so it is not so much a fight as a slaughter anyway and that is not what I wish for." she said whimsiclly shifting laughing softly as if something funny had struck her as she moved.
"The queen has magic but it cannot begin to comare to my own." she said softly "I don't know what she seeks but there is nothing I can give her so I doubt she wants snything from me then companion ship... she has chosen a very solitary rode, but this was her choice, I imagin deep down some part of her regrets it, and yet her passion, and pride, prevent her from laying her anger to rest as it should be." she said shifting frost now covered the entire clearing where they spoke climbing the tress and edging out further into the woods.
"That is very true As interesting a conversation you could never assure me or speak to me on female matters as you are unfortunately male, but then You could I suppose speak to me on male matters should I ever need such advice hmm?" she said lightly.
she smiled "Oh don't act like that." she said smiling "be happy as I would see you as a confidant you would find the same trust with me... now weather or not you choose to use that is entirely up to you. she conceeded

He saw her smile & smirked before he giggled lightly, he was already a dark beast & he was also cold, so in a fight it would not bother him & something about fights was one could with with out so much as a blow & all one had to do was put up a strong front. "I am always up for the challenge, should you wish to test that theory of it not being, much of a fight"
"Perhaps, you are right, but she is one that is not know for just wanting companion ship" He knew well that when it came to the other queen, it was a deep matter, that was more then anger it was also hat that others had what she did not & the feel of being betrayed by those she once loved.
"Indeed I am quite male" He giggled lightly before he smirked once more allowing it to die a bit before he spoke "Should you ever need it, I am sure I could give some advice"
He giggled lightly at her words of how to act "Of course, though happy is not a word with in me, after all I am called the dark one, not happy one... how ever we can see how this... alliance of sorts plays out" He was not one that really spoke of friendship, though it was true he was at least glade to not be at odds with her as well, as the queen

she laughed shaking her head snow seeming to fall from her hair as it moved "No that's alright." she said softly each light footstep spreading more frost as she danced around dress swirling around her gems and jewels winking in the lights seeming in golden beam between the leves
"Well that'll be my problem when it comes." she said softly hands moving "If she's the only friend I can get I'll take it. we live a lonely excitance dark one, power uts you off from everyone." she said softly moving as she spoke spreadin her frost farther
"You are, and maybe one day that will be useful one day... if nothing else a man and woman can sate loneliness for a while, but we'll see, I suppose in a situation like this a woman should not be so forward." she murmured hands gliding down trees.
at that she glanced back at him smiling "really ? you giggle and laugh so delightedly are you so unhappy then? if you are make yourself happy? is that so difficult." she asked moving vanishing in a blast of snow before dropping behind him and smiling leaning against a tree "really? Good then, I am glad." she said smiling even though her features where col the smile was warm and genuine brought on by a youth that had not yet been stolen away by the coming years of isolation.

He saw the frost & snow that came form her movement, he watched her move he of course was not one to back down, though he did not like to make himself so open ether. "I was set off form others long before, I became the Dark One. Men & women, can do more then sate loneliness & in this day in age it is better a woman to be forward or speak her mind then, just be something to look at, after all to many do not speak because of fear, that has come with how the ways of man has taken to the idea of the woman's place" He smirked lightly, though at seeing her vanish his body went on alert more of habit then anything as she appeared behind him, he almost reacted badly just because of the action though he was able to not do anything that would start something, he looked at her. "Who says I am not happy, in my own way? Perhaps not as you would see it or others, but in my own I am & besides if I where, then that would be something I would not speak of after all no beast should be seen as happy, for it is would do bad for my wrap of being what I am"

"Was that By choice?" she asked him seriously as he spoke "why would you choose to be away from others, even people who are solitary are never truly always away from people cut off from them..." she said shifting moving a bit as she stepped forward "I'm sorry did I startle you if you ask it I won't do it again." she said softly he'd almost lashed out she'd felt it a gathering and tension of power before it had faded he had amazing levels of self control.
"Then let me be more forward with you, lets see what kind of spark we could have between us hmm?" she said stepping closers he'd notice more intricate details how her breath was cool the softer elaborate detailing on her crown and gown how icy crystals clung to her hair and her lashes sparkling with a rainbow of colors in the like small winks of beauty as she looked up at him.
"Your not a beast, different to be sure like me, but not a beast." she said reaching out cold fingers touching the leather vest testingly gently to see what his reaction would be before looking up at him "No one has to know, if you don't want your reputation sullied... no one has to know we're friend.. or.. lovers?" she questioned breathing it softly the word cold with her breath yet hot at the same time as she smiled up at him

"Perhaps not, though it matters little that the fact is I was in the end" He smirked "You can do it all you want, though I will not be held responsible if something happens, because of it" He heard her words "You think there will be a spark, when it comes to two that are both cold?" He did not miss as she moved closer the more details he could see, at her words of not being a beast he chuckled "Not a beast? I assure you, I can be quite the beast when pressed"
He felt her fingers touch his leather vest, he did not pull away as she did so at her words he smirked "I see & you do not worried on the idea of your own reputation being sullied?" He might not class them as friends as she did, though he could class them as alleys with benefits to be sure.

"Itis a simple matter to say no you know I won't charge you for it." she said with aplayful sparkle in her eye as she looked at him before nodding "I think in our positions very few people would really be able to understand what it's like for us... even that kind of basic, mutual understanding is enough." she murmured looking over him and smiling "And unlike those silly country girls who dream of dashing princes, I think a man is far more interesting then so gaudy vain little boy." she breathed. before chuckling "Hmm I don't doubt that you have a great power.. terrible yes, frightening and dark... but great." she said softly
when he didn't pulled away she stepped closer smiling "I'm a queen no just any queen a queen who rules the whole winter I bring the snow and ice, you think any one would dare sully my name? those few fools who would I don't care about and those loyal to me would see they are taught a lesson. I'm not worried." she said softly looking up at him "No strings, I promise just mutual satisfaction."

(We should have this, I think before he meet Belle)
Rumple heard her words "And how many country girls have you had to deal with, that dream of such a prince & I am sure there are quite a few prince that, could or would class them self as a man, even if others see them as a boy" He felt her steep closer "You do at that & yet, the winter only last so long" As she looked at him, he meet her gaze
"Then mutual satisfaction, is all it will be nothing more will become of it" And he would take steeps to see that, for sure that is all it would be. He could not say the idea of regretted had come to mind, though so far nothing happened between them them words & touch, at least touch on her part. Did he fully trust her no, but then who did he really fully trust none, at least none any more.
