He's looking.

The woods are thicker than he recalls, the trees strange and odd. He's searching for someone and he thinks it might be Snow. There has to be a bridge somewhere, but he's yet to find it, which means he's yet to find her. There's someone else that he's looking for, but he doesn't know who it is. He only knows that she's small and vulnerable. She needs someone to protect her and it's supposed to be him.

He wanders, deep through the woods and makes his way out of the dark to the light, entering a strange building and walking until he's in the midst of several rooms -- each one stranger than the last. "I'm looking," he says aloud, as if that will direct him to what he needs to find. "I need to find her."

"If anything happens to me? Mary Margaret," he replies in an instant. "Always her, if even I'm a little bit sick, she's the one who needs to know," he says, feeling that if he can make sure she's his next of kin, he's managed to do something. "We can't start now?" he asks, aware he's starting to get desperate.

"I wouldn't be opposed to trying later today, but I'd like it if you took a few moments. Perhaps got something to eat."

He almost protests again. He practically feels something determined and bound up in his chest pushing him to ask one more time, but he tries to listen to the reason in the words. David takes a steadying breath and nods his head. "If you think that's best," he agrees. "Maybe I'll come back in the afternoon."

And then, he'll have no excuse to stop him from trying to earn back his memories.
