I saw this last on tumblr and loved it so I could post it here when I had the chance. until we get a better view of what type of sword, Emma’s holding, this is all speculation. the sword is probably not the long one he carries with him but a short sword.
Ha, it looks like a short sword alright. I was close enough with dagger. In the pic Emma’s looking up at him in… confusion?… so maybe he gave it to her so he would teach her to use it. She said “getting ready to fight” so maybe he has an idea of how she can do that 🙂
I was looking at the Swanfire thread (awful idea I know, it just makes me feel bad) and some of the things that were said in the last few hours bothered me a bit. They were talking about how Hook will stand back from Emma when Neal comes back into it (which I think is likely to happen, but obviously hoping CS is endgame). They were saying that Hook having a relationship with Emma is crossing emotional lines, because Hook has a relationship with Neal already. But do Hook and Neal really have a relationship?? I mean, they spent a couple of days on a boat together and bonded a little, but then Baelfire rejected him. It’s been 300 years – can we still say they have a relationship?
Also they were saying that from one of the deleted scenes that Hook knows that Neal could want Emma back. Obviously they both think he’s dead now. Do you think that might stop Hook from persuing anything because of this supposed relationship he and Bae had? Also I couldn’t help that notice (from a neutral standpoint, I swear!) that Emma wasn’t devastated by Neals death in ASOTM. She was very sad at the end of SSTTR of course, but i’m thinking that could be she was mourning the death of her sons father, the man she was once in love with. She rallied after that. I can’t help but think that if, for example, Snow or Charming had died, the other one would be incapacitated with grief, failsafe or no failsafe. Like Rumple – he didn’t care to do anything about the failsafe when he learned that his son was dead. This really says to me that Emma and Neal CAN’T be TL, logically, because TL is timeless etc. Emma didn’t really show much sadness in ASOTM, to me anyway.
Any thoughts?
