Reply To: Emma + Baelfire = Swanfire

I wonder if Neal will be in a coma? cough cough, like a certain Prince. Although I would like to know if its Neal and not Roland I wonder what happen. Did he get hurt trying to protect, Charming, Robin, Roland, Hook (I will love for it to be him) or all of the above. Did he try to leave to get Emma/Henry and was stop by a curse. I just want it to be a good reason for Neal not to be there. Other than the writers just wanted Hook to play hero or Neal ‘choose’ not to go. I want it to be clear that Neal could not go. And he is part of the reason of your family is in danger.

I just realized that both Emma and Neal had this touching huggy moment with their parents in Save Henry and by Going Home they were both losing their parents again. At least Neal has Snowing and Belle, while Emma has Henry.

Here is a few fuzzies for you all.

===========================

Emma: If I recall, there was only one favour I owed you, and I think I’m paid up.

Mr. Gold: This isn’t about me anymore. You’ll do it for Henry.

Emma: How do you figure that?

Mr. Gold: Well, because if you don’t, you’re going to wake up one morning, and discover he’s hopped on a bus back to New York. He ran away to Boston to be with you. He’ll do the same thing for his father.

Emma: Until Neal lets him down – which he will. It’ll be a hard lesson, but then at least Henry will understand that I lied to protect him.

Mr. Gold: Someone’s beginning to sound a lot like Regina. I think the real reason you lied was to protect yourself.

Emma: What’s that supposed to mean?

Mr. Gold: From getting hurt again.

Emma: That’s not happening.

Mr. Gold: You want a second chance with that man.

Emma: What makes you think that?

Mr. Gold: The look on your face.

Emma: You have no idea what…

——————————————————-

Neal: He’s a good kid.

Emma: Yeah.

Neal: Hey, I’m trying my best here.

Emma: I know. We all are. It’s just, we’re going to have to go back. To our home.

Neal: I’m just getting to know him.

Emma: Then maybe… Maybe you should come with us.

Neal: To Storybrooke?

Emma: I’ve seen your apartment. You don’t got a lot going on here.

————————————————-

Emma to Gold: Here’s the thing. You’re dying. And right now, we are your best hope. Time’s come for you to start trusting someone. And, if I were you, I’d start with family.
—————————————————–

Neal: There’s a difference between running away from your father, and watching him die in front of you. He may be a monster, but he’s my blood.

Emma: What happens when he’s healed?

Neal: I don’t know. Forgiveness ain’t something I think is possible with him.

Emma: But somewhere inside you, you hope someday, it will be.

Neal: Life’s full of surprises, isn’t it?

Emma: Well, no matter what, it’ll be nice for Henry to be around you a little bit, even if it is just for a visit.
