ParticipantMini-rant before I run out the door cause I’m seeing some ugly stuff.
Too soon? TOO SOON? Um…she may have thought he just died, but he’s been out of her life for how long? They haven’t been together in over a decade, not to mention there is a LOT of hurt there that she has every right to be angry about, not even just the jail thing cause let’s face it: the tons of mistakes after that have been MUCH more aggrivating than his intial attempt to do the right thing and help her find her family. That’s not even a reason for me at this point even though I’m sure Emma feels hurt and rejected and had to go pregnancy and childbirth IN JAIL for his crimes. But I digress…
TOO SOON is Neal FORGETTING he was engaged to Tamara five minutes ago. TOO SOON is not addressing that betrayal or hurt at all! A&E confirmed that he had moved on and DID love Tamara so what, that just goes out the window now that she’s no longer an option? Cause he sure didn’t choose Emma while Tamara was still pretending to love him, that’s for darn sure!
I do love Bae, I want him to be happy, but this really irks me! I’ve seen so many people hate on CSers for acknowledging that he loved Tamara, but it’s true. Was she his true love, heck no. Totally wrong for him on so many levels and I’m just as upset with her as anybody for hurting him. That doesn’t mean Emma has to put up with all of it and take him back though. He made his choice, she’s free to make hers. ESPECIALLY SINCE THEY WEREN’T TOGETHER, they haven’t ever really “known” each other, and they certainly don’t know each other now.
So no, anything that happens with Emma and Hook WHICH HAS BEEN BUILDING SINCE THEY MET and she was too afraid to trust it BECAUSE OF BEING BURNED BY NEAL is not “too soon.” Not at all. In fact, “it’s about bloody time.”
/end rant, time to head out the door soon.

YES YES TO ALL OF THIS.
HATERS BE HATING.
It’s not too soon. We CSers have seen it happening, HAVE PREDICTED IT HAPPENING, since day 1.
This is how TL works on this show. They fall in love relatively quickly (and for CS it’s slower than most) and then it’s all about the struggles they go through. So far the struggles will be Neal and Henry. There are probably going to be more.

I totally agree, and Adam & Eddie even confirmed that he really did love Tamara in the recap. I think Neal needs to fix his relationship with his father before he thinks about a relationship with Emma.
Him, moving on too quickly, trying to get back together with Emma when he really did love Tamara would make Emma rebound. And being rebound is awful.

ParticipantSo, I’ve calmed down now.
Thinking about that seeing that panel again, well, it really was not good for SF. Not good at all. All summer Adam and Eddy have been trolling and being like “you’ll have to watch” and being very close mouthed about CS and avoiding questions about them and making ambiguous statements like “feelings will be hard to deny”.
But it’s like they’re throwing in the towel now.
Eddy was all “I wonder who that’s going to be” in reference to the kiss, talking about how hard Hook is working for Emma and how it won’t be rainbow kisses and unicorn stickers for Swanfire.
It’s honestly like they’re giving up and saying “alright, you got us, Captain Swan all the way!”
I cannot wait for this kiss. Because it will only be the start. It’s the kiss that’s going to establish the “triangle”, which, from the sounds of it, won’t be an equilateral one. That kiss is going to freak out both Killian AND Emma, Emma more so, because they’re going to be so scared of the depth of their feelings for each other.
Also, Emma is going to be the one to kiss Killian, because in Tallahassee it was established that she would make the first move and “not stand on ceremony” the next time. There is going to be a huge emotional moment leading up to this kiss and it will be amazing. But make no mistake, it really is only going to be the start of the drama. The struggles for Captain Swan are only just beginning.
But it will be glorious.

ParticipantI was very surprised when they basically shot down Swanfire a little and it wasn’t going to be a happy reunion. I thought they would’ve just gone with a “wait and see”.
Hook has definitely been proving himself this season. He’s even starting to win over Charming.
All magic comes with a price!

Also, the full panel is up on youtube.

ParticipantIt’s Once day! We’re getting some good stuff tonight guys, I can feel it. We know that Jane Espenson is all about dialogue and interaction rather than moving the storyline along, and as we got a recap of the “perhaps I would” conversation, it’s relevant for this episode and is going to be explored further.
SO EXCITED!
Also, i’m sure we’ve all guessed that the kiss will be in 3×05. And isn’t is such a coincidence that they met in 2×05? Lol. Also, Christine Boylan co-wrote 3×05, and we had that tweet from her saying that she had just watched scenes that will “make your spirits soar and your toes curl” or something to that effect.
Could someone post that tweet????

ParticipantWrote a new CS meta about how Hook referred to Emma as love last episode is different And here’s a nice little recap of NYCC panel
Your meta gave me a load of feels 🙂 it’s true, he really did say love differently. It was so sincere, usually it’s said in an off-hand kind of way, but when he said it last week, it was in a higher tone, barely audible, it WAS different.

I found it. It was on page 157. Such a long time ago!
