"Yes," Ruby said when Loki asked if she ever planned on returning. It was something she'd have to do eventually, though she continued to drag her feet. She did need to check on Granny and all that she'd left behind, as even though the journey to the Nexus was exactly the adventure she'd been looking for, it wasn't within Ruby to be so neglectful of those she loved. There was also the matter of Graham, who seemed so insistent that she return for some reason he would not name. She wasn't sure what sort of big reveal waited for her back in Storybrooke, but she sensed it was tied to the dreams she'd been having and the heightened sense of awareness she'd been experiencing lately. "At some point anyway, but I mean to return. I just have to go check on my Granny. She'd worry about me, no doubt. What about you? Do you plan on going anywhere else?"

Ruby listened as Loki spoke of his knowledge of languages, the theory he presented making sense to her, for all that she didn't know anything other than English. It was something she meant to change as learning different languages had always had an appeal to her. "Could you teach me something sometime?" Ruby asked suddenly as she could think of no one who would make a better teacher for her. It was true that Loki may not have the time or the patience or even the inclination to teach her, but she found his voice and cadence and way of speaking impossibly interesting, and was sure that if she listened long enough she was more likely to learn from him than anyone else. "No pressure, of course. I've just always wanted to learn. All I speak is English, and it makes me feel a little bumpkin-y."
