Emma + Baelfire = Swanfire

Agreed with theory KFC. Also, I doesn’t look like MAP is around for very long, not long enough for any kind of Shang/Neal/Mulan romance. MAP appears to have peaced out after 303 and no word yet if they are returning.

SleepingWarrior has become a reasonably popular ship. Hadn’t thought about it at all the first time I was watching the show, but during my recent re-watch, I was keeping it in mind, and I can see where people get the idea from. Obviously not gonna happen as long as Phillip’s alive, because he’s confirmed as being Aurora’s true love, but the way Sarah and Jamie played their interactions, I can see potential subtext for a potential attraction there, especially on Mulan’s part.

PoM– that may be, but the way Eddy talked at CC when Warrior fire came up was not a hint that it was Mulan who would not be interested, it was Neal who just looked up at the woman he loves, implying it was unlikely. Then J.Mo jumped in and the topic moved on to what you call that ship.

I think Neal is not going to be interested in any one else right now, and it may be that Mulan will be equally disinterested. I am all for warriorfire Brotp of sorts.

The media will play it up though, and the writers might have her undress him partially to get to the bullet wound, share a horse as someone said, perhaps watch over him. Things that visually imply intimacy but in the context of the necessity are not viewed as romantic by the characters themselves. Fans though….

I think Nealfire isn’t going to care about anything except getting home to Emma.

And Henry! If he finds out Henry is in NL, he is headed there, and I could see him being surprised Emma is too, thinking her safe back in SB.

I posted this theory in the chat late last night, but in order to get to NL typically you need two things

1) pixie dust

2) a happy thought

So what if Neal gets pixie dust from the mines in FTL and then the swan necklace is his happy thought and that takes him to NL?

In the past month (an estimate but I don’t want to dwell on the t-word), Neal has found out he’s a father, reunited unwillingly with his father, dealing with having his past lover who he still loves and his fiance both being in his life, betrayed and shot by said fiance, exchanged “I love you’s” with his former lover and then got sucked down a bean hole for the second time in his life. I really don’t think he’s going to set eyes on Mulan and think about her in a romantic way. She could, to borrow a quote from Ron Weasley, dance naked in front of him wearing a tea cozy and all he could would think about is getting back to Emma and Henry.

Haha! Just imagining Jamie Chung in her birthday suit with a tea cozy on her head made me burst out in laughter! Anyway, I agree that Neal will just be intent on “fighting like He!!” to get back to Emma and Henry (to quote MRJ from CC). Neal isn’t about to jump into bed with another woman, let alone even glance her way. Neither do I think Mulan would really want to seduce Neal, especially when she finds out he is Emma’s guy and  father of Emma’s child. Mulan respects Emma too much based on their time together in the EF last season. Plus, I think Mulan believes in honor and duty too much to do that, since she helped Philip find his way back to Aurora, despite the fact that Mulan clearly loves Philip.

I think MAP’s one mission is to get Neal outta FTL.

I posted this a page back but it got lost in naked tea-cozy wearing Mulan:

What if Neal and MAP go to the mines and get some fairy dust and then he uses the Swan necklace as his happy thought and that takes him to NL?
