SpectatorGood thinking actually! Although I kind of hope it won’t happen that way, I’d like for Emma to have some time to get used to the idea of getting a sibling *sigh* she’s barely wrapped her head around the fact that she has parents who love her.
Except life goes on Snow never hid the fact from Emma in fact Emma knew that Snow wanted a baby in NL. It has been another year so Snow has to wait for Emma’s ok? What if they weren’t coming back because of this curse does Snow just wait? Besides Snow has a kingdom to run and need heirs to help her run it. Emma has gotten the life she wanted with Henry. Both of them are what in their 30’s plus I don’t think Snow needs to keep bowing down to Emma she saved her life tried to bond with her in NL and she will continue to try and bond with Emma but she too has to move on like Emma has in my opinion.

ParticipantI’ve been going back through this thread it’s really amazing how far we’ve come as a ‘ship and a fandom. We started out last season, grasping at any hints we got on screen and this past season, we got so much every episode. I can only imagine how much more we’re going to get once its March again.
I’ve even been thinking, the closer we get to March, likely, we’re going to see more interviews leading into the premiere of 3B; maybe even a recap, which will be greatly needed and there’s going to be even more stuff to analyze and write metas about…more gifs.
Good stuff is coming and that’s where the real fun begins. 😉

ParticipantOh I’m just saying that I hope the writers “delayed” the pregnancy so that when Snow and Emma meet up again, Snow is still pregnant and Emma has time to.. I dunno come to terms with it 🙂 that’s all. I’m not saying Snow shouldn’t have a baby. At this stage of the game, Emma and Snow should just be friends. That’s the sort of relationship you’re supposed to have with your parents as an adult IMO. I’m great friends with my mother 🙂

ParticipantNeal NEVER went searching for her, Adam never said that. That was one of the reasons why when Neal said “I’m never going to stop fighting for you. Never.” I got SO mad, because when has he EVER fought for her, EVER? He didn’t find her when she got out of prison. He didn’t find her when August came to NY to tell him he was heading to SB – he was only concerned about his father finding him. He didn’t find her when he got the postcard in 2×01. He has just let her down in every way possible as far as I’m concerned. Anyway, no worries, CS is TL and timeless, transcends realms etc.
This makes me SO mad too! Sure, after Emma finds YOU, you say you are going to fight for her. That’s EASY! When was he ever around for any of the HARD stuff, like NOT leaving her, or coming to FIND her?? Don’t get me started!!

I see what you are saying but to me that would be a waste of screen time. Emma could see through Snow’s eyes and with the baby how desperate Snow wanted a baby and to see Snow’s mother side vs friend side since she stated they have the same experience Emma can finally accept Snow as her mother more. Besides like what could Snow do if she is pregnant or have a baby with her she can’t fight anymore so this might make Emma more aware that she has too move on that bitterness has to stop in my opinion.

Your belief in love wasn’t strong enough to overcome your fear of rejection.
I mean… helloooooooo!
I know SFers like to believe that what makes SF beautiful is that it’s a ~real life ~messy ~imperfect relationship, but I call BS on that.
EVERY SINGLE FANTASY STORY HAS RULES. Rules which HAVE to be followed. Otherwise the story makes NO SENSE. You have to follow a structure.
In OUAT (and OUATIW) we have consistently been shown:
- that TL does not move on
- it always finds each other
- when it is separated, it ruins the couples lives
- that both partners need to believe in their love
SF literally fits NONE of these criteria. I mean, you could ignore it not meeting one or two, but ALL FOUR?
NOPE.

I gotta say, it could be my shipper goggles talking, but I think Emma will be discomfited by Snow being pregnant or having another child. And who do you think she’s going to turn to?? Not Snow obviously. Not David either. Certainly not Neal or Henry. And who does that leave…?

Does anyone care to elaborate on these points? 😉 PoM has made a post about this in the SF thread saying that SF meets all four criteria.

PoM has made a post about this in the SF thread saying that SF meets all four criteria. I know and no offense but I don’t care to elaborate on any points nor do I care what POM said to try to deconstruct CaptainEala’s opinion. I think it’s kind of childish for people whom clearly doesn’t ship CS to come in here and read our posts then go back to the SF thread and disprove it in front of everybody else without having the person whom wrote it in the first place have a chance to defend the new allegations the person has placed on her. I could deconstruct what POM said but I’m not going to do that because she is entitled to her opinion, just the same as anyone else.
I say that the other way around as well with people whom ship CS to go in the thread and then to come here and laugh at what they’re saying. It’s why I don’t ever go in the SF thread for anything and I hope POM sees this because it IS childish!
I found out through someone PM’ing me.
