Kinda like wondering if her tattoo happens to be of a buttercup and just also manages to match Charming’s shield – I need answers!

Mwahahahaha:

 

THE MEANING OF BUTTERCUP = “CHARM” OR “CHARMING”

“Make of that what you will”.

HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Also – the CS theme WAS in Tallahassee so it was there FROM THE BEGINNING as well, just like we’ve said. I’m so sick of people saying that fans forced their hands into doing us some really big fanservice and that it was never their intention to go this route when Adam has said over and over again that his vision for the Hook storyline (and for how Hook and Emma’s storylines would overlap) is still in tact so just keep believing!

*rolls eyes at people saying CS is fanservice*

Lets not also forget that sometime AT THE BEGINNING OF SEASON 2 JMo had an interview where she said that Emma could fall in love with a villain and “wouldn’t that be fun?”

So yeah. Next silly argument please.

So I’m not worried about any potential SF episodes, because so far they’ve been compared to CaptainSwan or Rumple/Milah and none of them have been really all that good for them. 3×12 is called New York City Serenade but Adam said it’s “#notwhatyouthink” so I’m waiting until we know more. Even if there IS a SF episode, I feel it way more likely that it’s about them getting CLOSURE and less about them reuniting.

I’m pretty sure we NEVER got mention of Emma and Neal in NY. Only Portland. The only couple associated with NY is Neal and Tamara. There has been no mention of MRJ being on set, and even if he is, he’s not the one with Emma lol. I actually wouldn’t mind if it was a Neal-centric flashback, but either way the fact that Neal has not yet had a centric episode combined with the fact that the “triangle” has already started? Yeah, it just shows to me that Neal is not a contender tbh.

Hook actually makes her smile, as she makes him smile too.

THIS IS WHAT IS BOILS DOWN TO – who can make Emma happy. Like, ONLY ONE of these men is making her happy.

OMG THAT INTERVIEW:

Morrison: Hook’s really taken her by surprise in positive ways, over and over again. She’s so grateful he didn’t lie, and overwhelmed with gratitude that he helped save David’s life — and now trying to save Henry. Hook has stepped up and is present in selflessly offering his help. She’s not used to people showing up for her, Emma’s used to people letting her down, so she has an overwhelming response to someone who doesn’t let her down and is proving to be there for her. Hook is adding to her life and helpful to her life. It does have her attention and whether or not it turns into something more, it will always be meaningful to her that he’s participating in her life in such a significant way.

Morrison: We’re getting close to the point where our heroes, as they call us in the stage directions, are seeing their plan come to fruition. It’s also really redeeming for Emma that saving Neal is helping the situation with Henry. I think there was some confusion with the fans about why Emma would go to save Neal as if it were a distraction from saving Henry. But Neal had lived in Neverland before and she needed to make the next strategic move that would help them get Henry back because they were missing so much information. She saw Neal as the missing puzzle piece that would help them save Henry and that was the truth; he knows how to get them off the island, so it’s been redeeming that Emma trusted her instincts in thinking they would need Neal to beat Pan because she was right.

So lemme get this straight. JMo is raving about how:

  • Emma is very grateful to Hook
  • His actions are selfless
  • She’s “overwhelmed” that he didn’t lie and that he saved David’s life
  • He’s been there for her and hasn’t let her down
  • Hook is “adding” to her life
  • Hook is “helpful” in her life
  • What he’s doing will always be meaningful to her

So basically Emma is overwhelmed with Hook’s actions and she is responding strongly to them.

And Neal:

  • Is useful to the #SaveHenry strategy

LIKE, TELL ME AGAIN HOW THIS IS A CLICHED “LOVE TRIANGLE” BECAUSE I DON’T KNOW WHAT SHOW YOU’RE WATCHING IF YOU THINK IT IS

JMo is so incredibly biased and I love it, whether she was told to lean for Killian or not. I mean, she had a perfect opportunity there to bring up Neal with regards to the “love triangle” question. She had a perfect opportunity to bring up Emma’s old feelings for Neal. She had a perfect opportunity to say that Emma wants to have another go.

I love that JMO states plainly that Hook being in Emma’s life is a GOOD THING and that he is being SELFLESS and HELPFUL and surprising her IN A GOOD WAY over and over again. Coming straight from the source so every argument against that is proven false. Love it!

Lol – YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

How are Emma and Hook NOT True Love again?
