ParticipantYou know what’s also awesome about Emma having a boyfriend in her fake life, is that she can still find happiness after Neal. I cannot stand this argument that Neal makes her happy because there has been very little evidence as of late and in season two (present time), that Neal made Emma happy. She was mostly wary of him when he came back post-Manhattan. She wished that he was dead, so she could move on with her life.
I agree, that Emma giving up Henry is probably what ruined her, more so than Neal leaving her. Now that I think about it, she probably thought how I can care for this baby when I was never loved? That’s a horrible thought to have as a new mother..

Participantjust read this fic it is perfect!
New York City Serenade
lady-silverblood:
“Henry, have you seen my earrings?” Skidding across the kitchen floor in her stocking feet, scrolling through her phone for the address of the place Walsh had texted and trying to calculate if it would be faster to take a cab or the subway at rush hour, Emma stopped long enough to yell at her son in the other room. From the involved sound of key pounding, he was back at that stupid game she’d gotten him for Christmas. “Henry!”
His tousled head popped around the corner. “What earrings?”…..

Exactly, @Obisgirl! I just don’t understand the whole “she said she loved him when he fell through the portal” argument. Of course she did, she was so completely full of emotion and stress and she thought he was dying. Her words after he was found alive must then hold just as much weight – “I wished you were dead,” “sorry, but that’s how I feel”…not exactly ‘let’s get back together, forget the 11 years we haven’t seen each other’. And of course, when you love someone, a little part of you is always going to care or even love them, it doesn’t mean you want to be with them.
So, anyway, the boyfriend thing shouldn’t be too much of an obstacle for our OTP. What can he possibly have that our pirate doesn’t?
And ok, can someone shed some light on this one? Ok, I get Emma decorating the apt with things that subconsciously remind her of SB and her family/past, but she doesn’t look at her arm at some point and say ‘why am I wearing a dirty bootlace on my wrist?!’ I mean, it’s kind of icky when you take away the sentimental value…the things that bother you at 6:45am… 🙂

Can i just
The deeper the lie, the more truth in it’s Echo
Ignoring the fact that Emma wished Neal was dead is like ignoring a pink elephant in the room. The cave would have killed Emma if she lied.
So yeah…

Captain Swan AU:
Hook gave the book to Henry with the hope that the boy could make her believe. Henry gives the book to his mom with the words: “He said your story is written in this book.” When she opens it, she sees the pictures of her and the stranger, moments she can’t remember but something deep inside of her screams that it’s true.
