Reply To: Emma + Baelfire = Swanfire

Honestly though, I just dunno what they’re trying to imply, because yeah they might be seeming to ram home that SF is an important thing, but at the same time they’re forging ahead with CS at a fast pace. If I had faith in the writers, I’d be willing to go along with the idea you suggested Slurpeez, that it’s painting CS in the unhealthy rebound light. But, the faith, ’tis not there.

I know. I know. I have no faith either. But I love to spin conspiracy theories, which oddly to me don’t sound that crazy, since it feels like I’m folllowing clues which seem to be placed there intentionally. Yet, look where that’s gotten me before….the season 3 finale and the big fat “NOPE!”

“Befriending the son to get in with the mum. No one will ever see through that.” Bless you Will Scarlet. LOL

But then Will and Rumple call Hook on his shady tactics, and I’m like “HOW CAN EMMA NOT SEE THROUGH THAT?” It has to come home to roost at some point. It’s like everyone else gets it: a ruthless pirate who will stop at nothing to get what he wants (i.e. Emma). And Hook doesn’t really care about Henry (except to get him Emma). He has to offer to babysit her kid to get to the mom. It’s the classic tactic when dating a single mom, only Hook doesn’t really have Henry’s best interests at heart. But how Emma can act so trusting around Hook with her son after he kept that big secret of the cursed lips from her and then tried to send Henry off alone to NYC I’ll never understand.
