Nonnie, I completely agree but I rather not publish your ask bc I don’t want to add more drama; we can definitely discuss it privately if you come off anon.
I do see a lot of “WHook v OGHook” discourse and from what I understand of it, a lot of it seems to revolve around the idea that WHook’s redemption is more meaningful because he became a parent and he had to be a parent in order to have a complete redemption arc. And the metas written are great and insightful and I very much respect the people who wrote them, but I disagree with them.
After Calypso’s curse sends everyone back to the Enchanted Forest, Hook comes upon the realization that he is the only one who still has his memories. While reminiscing about pivotal moments in his relationship with Emma, he quickly arranges a plan to find her and convince her their True Love is the only way to break the curse.
Huge thank you to the wonderful @cshappybeginning for the amazing poster she’s created for this fic!
Since Tumblr sucks and there are these messy symbols, I advise you to read this chapter on AO3 and FF.net.
Enchanted Forest – Present Day
The
familiar fishy odor of the pier invaded Killian’s nostrils as his eyes settled
on the small, brick houses he hadn’t seen in a long time. He still couldn’t
believe that bloody witch had tricked them all and cast a curse on them, but
staring at old houses sure wouldn’t solve a thing.
“Emma!”
he knew looking around the Jolly would be fruitless, but he still couldn’t help
but let his eyes wander the deck. He heaved an annoyed sigh when all he saw was
an ashamed Smee sitting on one of the trapdoors, trying to hide a piece of
bread and cheese behind his back.
“Captain, I
swear I was just stopping for a breath,” he used his free hand to clean some
breadcrumbs off his bearded chin before sending Killian a curious look. “Who is
Emma?”
