              her gaze averts, falls to elsa’s hands as
                 the younger girl speaks, and her jaw
              steels in thought. it’s not sympathy she
               feels, of course it’s not. regina worked
              hard to control her magic, went through
             hell to learn all she could, and maybe her
               ’gift’ hadn’t been quite as… chaotic, as
                elsa’s was and is. that didn’t mean she
                   hadn’t had her accidents, made her
                                        mistakes.

a moments pause, a slight hesitation,
  before regina looks back up and
           catches elsa’s eye.

                       ”              it’s not your magic you need
                                to control. it’s your emotions.”

         It took quite a bit of restraint for Elsa not to laugh.
         Rude as it was, she could not help it. All her life,
         she was taught to [ CONCEAL ]. She was taught
         to wear as many masks as possible to hide her 
         true self and prevent her emotions from getting
         the best of her. However, she was never taught
         how to control them ; she was taught how to bottle
         her emotions up, nothing more. If she allowed a
         moment of weakness, snow would only fall around
         her and so she forced herself to bottle everything up.

                                 Eventually she would lose control
           & the cycle would only repeat.

❝I know. For so long I have been a slave to my emotions.
  Of course there is nothing WRONG with FEELING. I would
  rather have my emotions and feel everything than to feel
  nothing at all. Although, if there are emotions I want to
  be rid of it is ANGER & FEAR. That is when I have no control.

          Some say to be angry is to be passionate, but that’s not true.
          When you are passionate, you are DRIVEN. When you are angry,
          it means you have no control. You are still driven, but         
          When I am angry or afraid, that’s when my powers get WORSE.❞
