Personality: Daniel is a kind-hearted and optimistic man. He prefers to think well of people, as opposed to assuming the worst. Even knowing what Cora was like, he preferred to believe that she would allow her daughter to find happiness, rather than choose to force her to be miserable and marry a man she did not love.
When it comes to Regina, he is patient with their need to hide their relationship, but he is also disappointed. He wants to be able to show his love for Regina, regardless of who is around. In his opinion, true love is greater than any magic, and they would always be able to overcome the obstacles between them. A hope that turned out to be false, unfortunately for both of them
He is an honest man, unfond of hiding their relationship. He believed they should be upfront with their love, but seeing Regina's fear, he agreed to run away with her and start a new life. They would not have had much, but they would have had each other. For him that was all that mattered.
Daniel is good with animals, working with horses and showing the kind of patience required when dealing with such large and easily spooked creatures. He takes good care of them and seems to enjoy his work, even if he is not particularly fond of Cora or the way she treats Regina.
Over-all he is a little too trusting in his faith in people, but he has (or had) a good heart and a strong sense of hope.
First Person: [The gentleman studying the watch seems to be trying to discern just what exactly it is. Some form of magic? Whatever it is, it is not nearly as confusing as the realization that he is somewhere entirely unfamiliar, and, more importantly, alive.
Rather than address the watch, he looks around the empty station, holding tight to the ticking reminder of his continued existence.]
Third Person: The train rattled slowly to a stop on the tracks, Daniel still tracing his fingers along the face of the watch with a curious stare. It wasn't as though he had never seen anything like it. Just nothing quite as unusual as this one.
The relative silence of the empty train car is peaceful, but also unsettling. Leaving him to his thoughts and his confusion. Was he dead? Was this what death was? He had never stopped to consider what it might be like before.
Idly, he rubbed a hand over his chest, the feel of his heart still beating beneath the skin almost startling. What had he expected? Some sort of empty wound? He felt hollow...
So this was what it was to die.
Regina...
Where was she now?
Would she be forced to marry that king?
He bowed his head and watched the light and shadows move across the floor. What kind of person does that to people in love?
