IC: Ten Fwd - Story Deviation #2
Oct. 30th, 2014 07:07 pmHenry had been hiding for two weeks yet again because of those related to him on this ship. But more out of fear than annoyance or hatred. But the day before Halloween, Henry woke up in a new outfit. It wasn't bad but he couldn't take it off. Thankfully, it seemed as though this was Q's doing so he didn't think any more about it.
The replicators however were malfunctioning. Every time Henry ordered something, all he got was taffy so he ate that instead. And what interesting taffy it was. The first piece made him stronger and he accidentally broke the table in the common area of the room. Curious but wary, Henry ate a few more pieces but nothing else seemed to happen until the final piece, where he appeared to float. He could fly! He spent a good hour learning how to control the ability before a thought struck him.
So Henry Gold finally left his quarters and headed down the hall to Room #0732 yet again. He took a deep breath and rung the doorbell, putting on his best scared face just in case Gold answered the door. It wasn't hard. He might have some advantage now but he was still scared of the man for what he had done to him.

Jul. 23rd, 2014 07:40 pmAfter leaving Room 0732, Henry headed back to Ten Forward. He'd stay there continuing to meet new people and take notes until he had the storybook returned. If it took longer than a week, he might go ask for it back but he'd rather be sought out here where it was more public than quarters.
Over the next few days, he wondered what to call the man. Dad was out of the question. And he refused to believe he was his grandfather. He doubted the man wanted to be called Rumplestiltskin so really, Gold was the only viable option. And it would be Gold, not Mr Gold. Even if Henry was very polite, he wasn't going to be so much so to this imposter. He wanted more answers first.
So the days passed and Henry sat looking out at the stars for hours on the end and the people in the room for hours on end, drinking the vaguely good hot cocoa and wondering if he'll ever get home.
