Emma + Baelfire = Swanfire

Dancing naked in a tea cozy can tend to be distracting 😉

I think that’s so sweet! And probably something he did before. I wonder if he got out of Neverland once upon a time what his happy thought was then. Returning to the Darlings? How depressing is it to think of a 15 year old boy escaping and thinking he’s going back to his adopted family only to discover he’s at least 100 years too late. *sniff* And then flying back to his love and son to Storybrooke to discover they’re in Neverland. *double sniff*

I have to believe he’s still carrying that Swan necklace with him. And we’ll all be in a puddle of feels when he pulls it out of his pocket to look at it.

I suggested in the 3×1 synopsis thread that Mulan and Neal might journey to find more enchanted poppies. Like Snow, Aurora may have trained herself by now not to have nightmares. So,  Aurora may need the poppies to go into a magically-induced slumber.

Great prediction. So then Neal knows he has to get to NL and that’s his mission. And like Snow and Emma used the compass to get to SB, he is going to use the swan necklace as his happy thought.

Seriously, I want that swan pendant to come into play again, and the next time Neal meets Emma, he’ll return it to her. And I’ll be crying tears of joy!

I do want the swan pendant, but the idea of him flying seems a bit …I think it gives me “I love to laugh” feels from Mary Poppins more than say, Gandalf the Grey on the hill on the White horse sort of feeling. Besides, maybe step-mama has something worked out right? One thing the did not use from the original BaTB is Belle’s father is an inventor—well what if they pick it up now?

I was thinking more that he could use it on Lake Nostos. The water itself is a portal but it seems that you need something to direct it. The happy thought would take him to NL.

Ah, that would be lovely! I know they are not going to promote the reunion as they will want it earlier and surprising. Another reason I think Ariel ma be involved–all attention on her and that, and then this surprise happens that Neal is in NL.

KFC, the “I love to laugh” scene is my favorite scene  in Mary Poppins.  I can’t get through it without laughing myself.  Nothing to do with SwanFire, however, maybe one day Mary Poppins can come to town to be nanny to new baby….

For a while now what I’ve hoped is for Neal to use that swan pendant as his “compass” going through a Lake Nostos portal. It’ll take him to NL, because his heart wants to get back to Emma and Henry. And Emma will be all, “But how did you end up here if you didn’t even know it’s where we were?” And he’ll open his hand and the swan pendant will be in it and Emma’s eyes will get all big and teary because not only did he keep it, but he used it to find her, and OMG FEELS.

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.

😆 😆 😆

Based on spoiler pics…

Hadn’t noticed this until I just saw a tumblr post about it, but in the pic where Hook and Emma are having the drink, you can see that she’s still holding the sword he gave her, the sword that we’ve seen Bae use, (the little ball shaped bit on the handle confirms it as Bae’s former sword), so that drink is almost definitely a toast to their Nealfire, and it’s no doubt gonna make me cry for them both.

Speaking of the sword, if it is the one that JMo was holding in that pic that Ginny tweeted, which is likely, because now we’ve seen evidence that Hook’s gonna give it to her, and the blade in the Ginny pic is the same shape of the blade that Bae was using, that means that Emma will be carrying a little piece of Neal around NL with her as she searches for and fights for their son. Every time she swings that sword, she’s gonna be doing it with conviction and strength that’s inspired in part by her love and memory of Neal. He’s gonna be there with her in spirit, helping her fight the whole time, even though they’re worlds apart and she thinks he’s dead.
