Holy Smoke Monsters Batman! …. is that a literally a wedding dress in spot lights in the back ground!?!
Subtle as a freight train guys lol 😉
So now we have had Killy & Emma witness Snowing ‘falling in love’, had Emma down on bended knee holding her mothers ring out to Killian (you know, the ring that True love follows wherever it goes 😉 )
& Charming’s & Charles/Killy’s campfire ‘chat’ where David tells Killy Emma’s parents should approve of him, he obviously loves Emma deeply lol- probably not a case of if, but when 😉[adrotate group="5"]This one has a few secs of the e04promo init (& that happens to be the the cover image of the vid, so I’ve spoiler blocked it for that reason) –
[youtube]7BvcgeIfwYQ[/youtube]LOL- nicely caught 😉
that awkward moment when you realize you bought the same dress as your mother
…. Was watching Sleepy Hollow & now, I wanna see Emma teaching Killy to drive LOL 😉
It might not be CS, but it’s pure gold 😉 –
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6pRdkmaxKMHere’s my two cents on the date outfit.
They definitely went for a young and innocent look compared to the previous outfits we have seen Emma in on her “dates” and her usual outfits for several reasons. First, Emma obviously never had the chance to have a traditional first date or prom where the guy came to the door to pick her up properly while her parents were there hovering in the background to embarrass her and take pictures. Because she has talked about all the loser guys she has dated I’m guessing she has never actually been on the kind of date that you go on in high school where you get all nervous and excited and the guy comes to the door to pick you up AT ALL. So basically, like finding a home, this is something that Emma probably dreamed about when she was young but never got got. Now that she is older she realizes she gets to have it AND her parents also thought they were never going to get that (remember Snow saying that Emma is great but she is all grown up?) but now they DO. The easiest way to convey all of that is to make Emma look younger by dressing her differently than we have seen her before. And we need to see that she is excited about this so we need to see that she has put a lot of thought into what she is wearing – changing her earrings, ditching the normal necklaces and shoelace that are her reminders of Neal of Graham, wearing her hai r up (but the ponytail adds to the youthful look), a girlie looking pink dress (almost promish), painted her nails.
But we can’t leave Killian out of this. It’s important that THIS is the episode that he ditches his pirate clothes and wants his hand back. Why? Think about his past. Who was he and how old was he before he became a pirate? We don’t know for sure but from the way he worshipped his brother he was relatively young. We know he was a very upstanding, straight laced guy – the kind who would have treated a girl very well if he was courting one. But between being abandoned as a child and being raised by his Navy brother and then being in the Navy himself I’m guessing HE didn’t have much of a chance to court much himself. Then his brother died and he became a pirate. As a pirate, he basically either had women throwing themselves at him or he was paying for them – there wasn’t any courting going on. Then he met Milah. He loved her but she didn’t exactly play hard to get, she threw herself at him. Although we don’t know for sure, I feel like their relationship was set before she joined his ship and they just kind of fell into place. She very much fell in love with the pirate version of Killian Jones – she told Rumple that she fell in love with him because he told her about all of his adventures. He never had to TRY to impress Milah.
Now he has Emma who has had to “court” in a round about way for quite awhile, and it has taken him a while to figure out why she won’t open up to him. When he finally learns WHY she has been pushing him away it melts his heart even more than he thought possible because it has nothing to do with HIM. Emma has never really cared whether Killian was Captain Hook, a pirate, or just Killian Jones – she has loved all versions of him, and she’s been terrified of losing all versions of him. For the first time EVER, I believe – just like Emma, Killian has the opportunity to do something he always dreamt of doing when he was young but never had the chance – to properly court a woman he loves. I think this is why he chooses this moment to ditch his pirate clothes. Just like Emma, he puts a lot of thought into what he is going to wear. In his case, I also think he wants her to see that SHE is more important to him than being a pirate (which Emma honestly doesn’t care about and will, I think lead to an identity crisis that will lead into the second part of the season). Of course, everyone loves Colin’s look so they can’t deviate too much from his usual look – but just getting him out of his usual pirate attire says a lot. The biggest deal is getting his hand back. We all know that Emma doesn’t care about him missing a hand and I think most of us were initially very torn about him getting his hand back (I think A and E have figured out a way to do it so it will kill all of us based upon spoilers). Not only do I think he wants his hand back so he can be “whole” for Emma (which is ridiculous) and so he can embrace her with both hands – I think it also symbolizes for him a time before he was overtaken with a quest for revenge – a time when he was more “innocent.” And really, how much more sweet and innocent can he look the first time Emma sees him with his hand than reaching out with that hand presenting her with a rose – which someone pointed out that a single red Rose means “I love you.” So basically whatever God awful deal he makes with Gold to get his hand back he’s going to do because he loves Emma and believes he wants/needs his hands to be who he wants to be for her.
At the end of the day while the visions of youth and innocence LOOK adorable, you can’t turn back time (ha! Well I guess CS can!!) or change the past. And the crappy things that happened to both of their lives are what ultimately lead them to each other and are why they find such strength in one another. I think that they might have some rough roads ahead trying to be people that they really aren’t for one another (especially Killian) for awhile. I honestly don’t think Emma even notices the hook and really hasn’t from the beginning – it’s just HIM.
This may be sick but I have this head cannon where Emma and Killian are in some kind of danger and Killy no longer has his hook and they really need it so Emma has to make a horrible decision and chooses to magically remove his hand and replace it with his hook to save them thinking he will hate her for it. But then he is worried that she will no longer find him attractive because he has his hook back and then he finally recognizes she doesn’t give a rats potootie about his hook, that she loves him regardless.
@rumplegoldfan I like the softer look that they’ve given Hook and Emma for their date. They are both deliberately stepping outside their comfort zones in not only their choice of clothing but in having a conventional date, when lets face it, their romance has been very unconventional from the start. I LIKE innocent looking Emma, after seeing nothing but the hardass for 3 seasons. Don’t know why people online are hating on the dress, she looks gorgeous.
And this is EXACTLY how it will all go down on Sunday 🙂 I love the look on Davids face. I really hopes he says something protective-daddy-like to Killian as they’re leaving.

What a totally bright spot and smile inducing joy this thread and the happiness embracing participants are among the murky, self-indulgent, dead-character-obsessed doom-gloom and pathetically negative shallow sea of anti-Once-fandom much of this forum has become.
The fabulous gifs, the ultra creative videos, the positivity, the respectful discussion, the intelligent wit, the heart happy girlish squeees, the mutual support of OMG Here Comes More Tortured Angst Anxiety…quite the sanctuary!
Many thanks to all of you for coming here to share 🙂
And the love affair continues…
