One of the reasons I remain unconvinced that CS is a romance by season’s end is that (and I dunno if this would even be considered a spoiler, but it’s about BTS pics, so) as far as we’ve seen, right up to the finale, anything Colin shot for SB, he was still wearing the pirate costume. And Emma Swan would not be able to take a guy seriously as her boyfriend if he gets around in what is essentially a fancy dress costume when you look at him amongst everyone else in town. If they were in a relationship, she’d have got him some actual clothes so she could take him seriously.
