So the only way to have a happy ending is to have a baby..that sucks. 😆 😯
Didn’t say it was the only way to have a happy ending. Basically, the babies would just be a cherry on top IMO.

June 9, 2013 at 1:18 pm #197626RumplesGirlKeymasterlol at the conversation happening.
What do you guys think the Swanfire reunion will be like? Are we talking a hug and crying or full out TLK?
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"June 9, 2013 at 2:32 pm #197633PriceofMagicParticipantI think Hook and Emma will be in the middle of getting romantic when Baelfire will stumble in and everyone will be shocked that Bae is alive and Emma and Hook are getting romantic.
All magic comes with a price!
Keeper of FelixJune 9, 2013 at 3:01 pm #197636kfchimeraParticipantI think the reunion will start–with smiles. He’ll have that sort of cocky smirk (Hey, I’m not dead) and she’ll have that angsty but genuine bittersweet smile (I thought you were). They’ll hug, but I’m not sure about TLK just yet. There’s still a lot to work out between them, for him to really earn her trust back.
She understands what he did, but as with her parents, it can take time for the emotions to catch up. They both want love and a home, but things are so complicated for them with all these other people in their life. It is no longer just the two of them against the world.
I heard this quote the other day, that drama is anticipation mingled with uncertainty. The writers have set up anticipation that Neal and Emma still loved each other, with everything from the keychain, the bug, the dreamcatcher, and the perceptions of everyone around them (August, Gold, Henry, Snow, even Tamara). Then, they made Emma certain that Neal is dead, & put her on a boat, emotionally vulnerable, with the very handsome Hook. Then they show the audience Neal is not dead, that he’s somewhere with characters we met before. They want us to anticipate the reunion, but have doubt at the same time.

June 9, 2013 at 3:10 pm #197638PriceofMagicParticipantI don’t think it will be a simple reunion, there’s going to be some obstacle that complicates it and that obstacle is probably going to be Hook.
Emma and Bae declared their love for each other as Bae fell through the portal so as far as Bae knows Emma still loves him. Emma thinks Bae is dead. She’s mourned him but there is no reason in her mind why she shouldn’t be able to move on, she doesn’t know Bae is still alive.
Bae is probably expecting to return home to hugs and smiles from Emma so for him to come across Emma and Hook together would be quite a shock for him. Also, Bae blames Hook for destroying his family so he may think Hook is just doing the same thing this time involving Emma and Henry.
I’m expecting a shocked expression for Emma, a punch in the face for Hook, and Neal storming off to clear his head.

Keeper of FelixJune 9, 2013 at 3:18 pm #197640RumplesGirlKeymasterI don’t know about that, PriceofMagic. She might begin the healing process by opening up to Hook, but I don’t know if they’ll be in a full on romance by episode 11–if that’s when the reunion happens. I think Hook and Emma will be best friends, but I don’t know if anything romantic is going to be happening anymore. I had predicted it, but that was before the portal scene. I just can’t see Emma moving on *that* quickly.
EDIT
That’s not to say that Neal and Emma won’t have obstacles. I want them to have them. I just don’t know if that means Hook anymore.

Agreed with this. Nealfire will be anticipating the lovey dovey, “OMG you’re not dead, thank God because now we can be together” from Emma, but she’ll be all :?. She may not even have to spell it out, if Hook is right there, and there are awkward glances, and Nealfire puts 2 and 2 together and then…

…can totally see that happening.

I’m not anticipating a full on CaptainSwan romance. I’m anticipating them genuinely becoming close on a friendly level, and then there’ll be that “moment” when they both get weak and give in and it takes them both by surprise. And it’s not long after that that Nealfire shows up. And it’s not long after that that CaptainSwan cool it with the romance, so she can go back and sort things out with Nealfire.
But I’d like to see CaptainSwan end on amicable terms, so they can maintain their friendship. That’s something that Nealfire probably wouldn’t like, because he wouldn’t necessarily trust Hook, but Emma could insist that he’s gotta suck it up and accept that Hook is her legit friend who was there to support her when they both thought he was dead, and she hasn’t had many legit friends she can count on to be there for her in her life, so she’s not gonna cut all ties with him. That would force Nealfire and Hook into resolving their own issues as well.
And I’ll be curled up in the corner because of overload on SwanFire and CaptainFire FEELS.

I suppose. I guess that just sounds a little soap opera-y for my tastes, especially on a show about Fairy Tales, drama for the sake of drama, I suppose. I would much rather Hook and Emma know that they do have chemistry but just becomes the best of friends without trying to establish some kind of triangle. Because if they give into it, then those who wants CS will never stop clamoring for it, claiming that the only reason SF is happening and not CS is because Neal suddenly came back.

I’m sure people will still say the same thing even if CS only develop a deep friendship before Nealfire shows up to distract Emma and prevent CS from continuing developing towards romance. Either way, Nealfire’s getting in the way. 😛 So I say have CS get together so their sexual tension can be officially dealt with and they can both get it out of their systems and move past it. If they never go there, then the “what if” will be lingering in the background for forever, even after SF get together, and that would be a more tedious direction for the storyline IMO.
