"Limbo is... well, shorter to say than 'interdimensional space,' for one thing. He was doing teleportation research for his master's thesis, and - you could argue that it worked, but he missed the instructions for getting out of the space he got into again. Wasn't much to see - I'd wonder how he was still save afterward except I don't know how aware he was that time was passing. He was fourteen years older than me when he got stuck and now he's two years older than me."
She's just counting her blessings that she got him out before she was the older sibling. It's been weird enough as it is.

"Teleportation?" His expression brightens considerably. That just sounds cool--Henry's a fan of comics.

Still, he looks a little confused. "But how did he not notice time was passing? People get older. Or... was time not moving for him and moving for you, like with this place?"

[claudiometer]

"More the latter, I think. It's not really something we talk about much." She was glad to have him back, and then they went right to fighting about how much time surfing the Internet to play catch-up was too much, and now they're pretty much back to normal sibling stuff and complaining about their respective jobs.
"I'm Claudia, by the way."

"Oh. So it was like this place too, with the way time moves? But it wasn't this place?"

This is just getting really interesting--especially considering what Storybrooke is like. All kinds of possibilities...

"Henry."

[claudiometer]

"Good to meetcha. No, it wasn't here - Milliways is a lot more interesting."
And then she raises an eyebrow. "You know a blonde lady named Emma?"

[operates_cobra]

He blinks several times.

"Yes--but there's probably more than one blonde lady named Emma. Is she from Storybrooke?"

[claudiometer]

Claudia nods. "She is."
(There may be more than one blonde lady named Emma, but Claudia really doubts there are that many ten-year-olds named Henry from that approximate time bracket. About as many people her age who share her name, probably.)
"She mentioned you think the place is cursed, and I gotta say, color me intrigued."
