Well the first thing she’s going to have to see, is the real Hook underneath the tough exterior his personality fronts in response to his own insecurity. She’ll need to see what really matters to him and I don’t mean Milah, I mean deeper than Miliah. Connected to that will be the reason why while what happened to Milah was wrong and horrible, he wasn’t able to let her go. She will have to see his vulnerabilities. She’ll need to see that he really is more than “Captain Hook” that he’s more than a macho guy with an attitude, that he’s a human being with feelings, with scars, and that like her, he needs love. It’s interesting he mentioned she’s had far too little love in her life on that beanstalk, because I think that’s him. She needs to see the human Hook. To do that, something’s going to have to rock his world deeply enough that his shell comes off and when that happens, to him, because of his pride, that kind of exposure will be rather traumatic for him. She’ll need to help him pick up the pieces when that happens. Sometimes, a person can’t look up until they’ve hit rock bottom. They climbed up a beanstalk together. They’ll need to climb out of a proverbial tunnel together. That’s the point where their relatonship can begin.
Agree with this too.
Also it is worth pointing out, that simply put, Hook’s OTT flirting is no different than Emma’s standoff-ness- it’s just the opposite end of the same form of self defense to keep themselves from being hurt deeply again. No one will truly see Killian until that wall is cracked & striped off & the same applies to Emma.
The thing is they both connected almost immediately & ended up getting more out of each other, than anyone else has, on their climb up the bean stalk. It’s that connection with someone that allows you to take that next step & so on & so forth. With Emma “she couldn’t take the risk that she was wrong in trusting Hook” as it was Henry on the line, she feels that connection & it scares her deeply. Who better to help you open up & understand you point of view, than someone who knows exactly what you are going through? 😉
If CaptianSwan doesn’t happen (aside from crying & ending up eating WAY to much honey & cinnamon popcorn), I’d say that Killian & Emma would have to in the very least end up best friends considering the connection they have- they ‘get’ each other like no one else can 😉
Edited to add- No idea where that photo came from sorry…

ParticipantI believe that photo is just a behind-the-scenes snap from Snow’s gallery on Once’s page from the ABC website 🙂

ParticipantThose photos are hilarious (Snow’s Gallery link crazyfox posted.) I did a massive “awwwww!” at Jarod Gilmore hanging over Josh Dallas’ shoulder. Totes Grandpa Charming moment.

ParticipantHey everyone! I’m new to the board and thought I’d introduce myself, I’m a big captain swan shipper hence my presence here 🙂
I know you’re all aware of wetpaint’s ‘vote for your favourite couple’ poll, just a reminder for everyone to vote for captain swan, I’ve just been there and they’re up against milah/hook who for some strange reason have a sizeable percentage of the vote. I refuse to believe there really can be that many milah/hook shippers since they had like two scenes together and were only used as a plot device for rumple and hook, so I think its just spite from other shippers. Apparently you can vote as many times as you like!

Welcome aboard! 🙂
Will pop over there & vote- I don’t keep in touch with those things tbh, as many teens & young adults tend to sit there voting over & over to see their couple win- I prefer real poll’s where one vote is all you get.

Here’s the link.
I think Swanfire, Swanqueen, Woodswan, Madswan, and Emma/Graham fans are voting for Milah. 🙁

Yeah, seems like it, doesn’t it 😉 – I still cant figure out why SwanFire etc fans hate CaptainSwan so much- I mean I’d really dislike SwanFire to happen (for many reasons) as things stand, but I wont hate on Neal/Bae or SwanFire because of that 😐
Maybe Hook/ CaptainSwan pulls in a more mature or forgiving fan base lol 😉 😆Edited to add- CaptainSwan is ‘just’ leading Hook & Milah now.

ParticipantHow do you know who is voting for or against anyone? I’m voting for a variety of couples – my main ship is Rumbelle but I’m also voting for CaptainSwan because I think they belong in the final voting, at least past the first round. I’m also voting for SwanFire (same reason) but they are way behind. Hook and Emma should be kicking Hook and Milah’s butts (that sounds so weird) but I think the new voting strategy in these polls is to vote against certain ships rather than for your own ships. I refuse to do that. Keep it positive, people!
