2,000 Followers Appreciation – Day 2/31

tlynnwords:

Yesterday I was talking about the lack of emotional payoff we’ve been getting on the show lately and how it’s taking it’s toll on the fandom. It’s hard for us to get our excitement level up when we’re unsure if the angst will have an equal (or better) amount of comfort to balance it out. With that in mind, I wanted to write this little ficlet that i consider a “deleted scene” that takes place the night that Killian is brought back to life and they find out Gold has tethered Storybrooke’s magic to the crystal.

Setting: “Only You” –  the clock tower after Regina poofs away and Henry says he’s going back to Emma’s house.

“So, shall we check the Dark One’s shop?” Zelena asked as Emma joined them at the bottom of the clock tower.

“No, he won’t be there,” Snow said. “He’s too smart to hide anywhere we would know to look for him.”

“Snow’s right,” David said. “We should split up and start searching the town.”

“Good idea,” Emma agreed. “Mom, Dad, you take everything north of the library and Killian and I will search to the south. And Zelena -”

“Sorry, Savior,” Zelena stopped her. “I’m not going to be traipsing around town int he dark. I need to be home with my daughter.”

“Fine,” Emma sighed. “But if you think of anything useful that could help us then let us know.”

“After you, love,” Killian held out his hand and followed Emma as she walked towards the bug.

When they were both settled inside the car she rested her hands on the steering wheel and sighed. “I have no idea where to look,” she admitted.

“We’ll find him, Swan,” Killian assured her. “We always do.”

“You know Gold better than anyone,” she said and she winced, thinking of Belle who was still stuck in the self imposed sleeping curse. “Well, almost anyone. Where do you think he’d go with all that power?”

“Somewhere that he wouldn’t be found,” he said.

Emma slumped her shoulders. “That’s not very helpful.”

He was quiet for a moment as he tried to think of something that could help them. “Oh, the irony.”

“Hmm?”

“I’m granted another chance to live my life and not even a day has passed and I’m right back to hunting the crocodile,” Killian said. He looked down at his hook and ran his hand over it.

“Oh, Killian, I’m so sorry,” Emma said. “This is not how we should be spending your first night … back.”

Come Away With Me (1/1)

Summary: Emma feels trapped in her role as princess and yearns for a life of freedom and adventure. A certain pirate offers her everything she’s ever wanted and more. On AO3.
Rating: M (mentions of sex but no actual smut, could probably be rated T but this is just in case)
Word Count: ~5100

Emma managed to escape the chaos of the ball while Grumpy and Sneezy caused a scene, loudly arguing over something petty, no doubt, and putting a damper on the otherwise festive atmosphere. She’d never been more grateful for her honorary uncles’ ill-tempered manners.

Her formal attire was beyond uncomfortable. No matter how many times she’d told her dressmaker to use soft, delicate materials like silk or velvet, the woman seemed to have her heart set on whatever new and exotic and stylish fabrics she could find. (Oftentimes, this backfired, leaving Emma with red rashes from chafing. But luckily, trends tended to be set by royalty so Emma had the benefit of seeing the rest of the court in gowns just as uncomfortable.) The lacy edges itched her skin, the corset was laced a bit on the tight side, and the beaded necklace she wore kept catching on the baby fine hairs on the back of her neck. It was dreadful.

AKA How The Episode Should Have Ended. 

The portal is closed and Regina has found Robin again and Emma, well, Emma needs a drink. Or seven.

There are better things, more constructive things, she could be doing with her time rather than moping in the corner of a tavern with her hands curled loosely around a tumbler and the bottle left on the table. But her mind is busy trying to differentiate between what’s real and what’s fantasy, coming to terms with the version of herself that collapses onto the floor weeping and she just –

She needs rum. Lots of rum.

CS blowjob gimmee all the smut

unfolded73:

Okay, I wrote the S4 blowjob I’ve been meaning to write for a while. Hope that’s okay, anon! This is set between 4A and 4B, during the only six weeks when nothing much happened in Storybrooke. Explicit, obviously.

“Swan, your parents,” Killian hisses as her teeth scrape against his neck and her hand brushes over the growing bulge in his jeans.

“Are at Bashful’s birthday party, so they’ll be a while.” The mostly innocent kisses they started sharing on the sofa after a quiet dinner (in a blissfully empty loft) have very quickly become not innocent at all, and Emma is already calculating how quickly she can get Killian up to her bed and naked.

“That seems likely, but if we’re wrong, your father will run me through with a sword.” His hand covers hers on his erection, but rather than lift her hand away, as he had perhaps fleetingly considered doing, he presses down.

a wish your heart makes

emmaofmisthaven:

fix-it fic for this… mess. because reasons. and pettiness. [ao3]

I wish for companionship.

The thought crosses her mind when she blows the candle in one breath, surprising, uninvited. It is a weird thought to have, for a person like her – for a princess with close, life-long friends, with dotting parents, a charming son and a loyal brother. She is surrounded by love every which way she looks, and doesn’t feel alone. Isn’t alone, never has been. But lonely, perhaps…

She shakes her head slightly as she raises her head to smile at her parents. People are clapping around her, wishing her a happy birthday for what feels like the hundredth time already. Gifts are taking most of the long table, and Emma wonders what hides beneath the soft paper – books and jewellery, perhaps, presents worthy of a princess of her rank.

Those presents she doesn’t get to open, for Alexandra grabs her hand before Emma even has time to blink, pulling her toward the centre of the ballroom. Musicians are taking this as their cue, throwing themselves into a lively song, and Emma can only grins as her friend takes both of her hands and starts dancing. They have been doing this ever since they were children, little lasses barely standing on their feet – it makes their mother laughs, thinking back to the balls they attended together, to the dances they shared too when they were younger.

“How old you are,” Alexandra jokes, as she always does.

I also don’t get why people are like “why is Henry there?” and “why are only Snowing old?” – this is a fake realm!! There is no logic because it’s not supposed to be logical! Nothing that happened in the real world had to occur in this one. Regina crushed fake peoples’ hearts and set a fake Rumple free. I see fans talking about “plot holes” in the AU and I’m like ?????? You don’t have to rationalize why things are…. & the writers gave themselves an out by having Regina explain the unrealness.

I agree ,,, 

but

For some people these things are important. When things don’t make perfect sense and aren’t explained it really bugs people. Attention to detail (especially when the writers have messed up in the past) can be a sticking point for some fans.

I think the AU would have been better to have just not included Henry but they obviously wanted him to be the reason Emma snaps out of it so they fit him in and made clear that he still has the same parents.

But yeah, trying to make sense of the supporting characters in a wish realm isn’t how I’m going to spend my fandom time.

Also, I think some things make “no sense” from an outside perspective, because they were intended to “make sense” to Emma and Emma alone.

Her parents being the same age as her would be weird. It would make her question the reality of the world around her. So they are aged appropriately – yet, as many fans noticed, it is not a true aging. Their hair is grayer, but their faces remain largely identical. No wrinkles, no real age shown. It’s merely the illusion of appropriately aged parents that Emma has been given – not the reality. This keeps their appearances familiar to her as “her parents” without causing Emma to question the logic of the world around her.

Granny, etc, would seem familiar to her at the only age she’s ever known
them – their true age in Storybrooke. Aging them up would only serve to
make them seem less familiar – and would serve no additional purpose
(as the aging of Snow/Charming does) – thus being more “suspicious” to
Emma. Thus, they are kept the same age.

In this reality, her parents did not train her to fight or stand up for herself. “That’s wrong!” people say. “They would’ve raised her to be a fighter!” True, they would have. But in reality, they never did. Those traits were built up in Emma without their influence whatsoever. So their lack of training in this world would seem sensible to Emma, as she never received any training from either of them in reality. Again, this is not a “what if” world. This is a world entirely created and designed to prevent Emma from being who she is – the Savior.

Henry must exist in this world, as some part of her would likely feel his absence and if she dreamed of his existence (as she dreamed of Storybrooke), it would likely trigger her realizing something is very wrong. This is also why his name is Henry in this world, even though the name was chosen by Regina. Having him named anything else could be a red flag that might alert Emma to the fact that something is wrong. Again, it doesn’t need to make actual sense – it only must make sense to Emma’s mind.

Since Henry must exist, he must have a father. As with aging up the parents, having a fatherless child would be strange. Keeping Neal as his father makes the most sense, again, as this will not seem weird to Emma. He is dead in the Wish Realm as he is in reality, again, so as not to arouse suspicion in her surroundings. He is celebrated as a hero because Neal, at this point in reality, is considered a hero in canon. Also, it is tantamount that Emma not recall any strife in her life that should have triggered the “fighter” inside of her, as this would also seem “wrong”. Therefore, her questionable history with Neal is omitted from this reality. Only the “heroic” ideal remains.

Killian’s absence in this reality is likely based on a “lesser of two evils” trade off. Killian encourages Emma to be strong, to fight. That is a big part of who he is and how he expresses his love to her. In order for him to exist in this reality, he would have to not ever do that. And having a Killian Jones who embraces Emma as a weak and ineffectual person who would rather sacrifice her entire kingdom than stand up and fight could trigger Emma to realize something is wrong. Better to have her mind at a place where she has not met him yet than to include him in the narrative as a potential bright red flag.

The Evil Queen is banished, not dead, because some part of Emma might sense something being “wrong” or disturbing/upsetting about the Evil Queen (who is also Regina) being dead. Saying she is “banished” mirrors the real world – where the “Evil Queen” is no longer who Regina is, but Regina herself remains alive and well.

The Evil Queen killing her parents did not wake Emma because it made sense to her. As the Evil Queen, Regina tried countless times to kill Snow White and Prince Charming. Even now, with the two entities separated, she literally watched the Evil Queen yank her parents hearts out of their chests only a few days prior. Seeing her do so again, even seeing her crush their hearts to dust, would absolutely not be illogical to Emma’s mind.

However, seeing the Evil Queen truly care about Henry did not make sense to Emma. We saw just as recently as 6×08 that the Evil Queen would absolutely hurt Henry (either by killing his moms or by darkening his heart) to get whatever she wanted. But suddenly… the “Evil Queen” was willing to stand idly by and allow Henry to straight up murder her, rather than lay a finger on him. This did not make sense to Emma. It triggered her mind to question her reality. Seeing Henry about to take another’s life and darken his heart then awoke the fighter in her. These two events in tandem woke her ass up entirely and destroyed the “sense” this entire realm was built on.

So now we have Robin Hood. His presence makes no sense. A new character arriving at this point in time makes no sense. It is perhaps at this point in time that A&E’s comment about this realm existing as of now comes into play. There is no reason for Robin Hood to be in this world, let alone arrive at this point in time, having to do with keeping Emma from questioning this world. The wish the Evil Queen made should not have created Robin Hood. And yet, here he is.

Why? How? Well, that’s why it’s the cliff hanger. This world has now taken on a mind of its own. It is now creating and moving the narrative for purposes unbeknownst to anyone. And this change now opens the door for additional ‘new’ characters to appear, characters who were left out for the very reason that they might cause Emma to question her reality – Killian (left out for the reasons above), and August (left out because making Emma question her reality is his primary narrative function in the series), and who knows who else. Characters that should not logically exist in this world, but now will. And finding out why will likely be part of the fun of this adventure.

The Wish Realm makes perfect sense, actually… if you look at it right.

CS AU:

Henry is about to get knighted, but his father is on a mission in another land. Emma needs to reassure their son that even if Killian won’t make it in time for the ceremony, he’s still so proud of Henry. But who are we kidding, Killian Jones is the best captain in all the realms, no chance he’s gonna miss his son’s biggest moment.
