😆 😆 😆 😆 Looking at the gifs of Snowing, Rumbelle & CS- what stood out…… each couple has one light haired partner & one dark haired 😉
LOL! And I was thinking of the gangplank and I realize he hadn’t moved except to turn around to face Rumple but he was definitely moving in such a way that he was squarely in front of Emma and stayed put rather than letting her deal with Rumple on her own even though they have a much better relationship than Rumple & Hook do. It just seemed very protective at that moment to me (and was nice to see since he kinda let Milah just waltz up to Hook before and stayed out of it, letting her do her own thing and just piping up from the background once in awhile. It cost him. Big time. He’s not repeating his mistakes or taking any chances!)
As to the Charming & Hook stuff absolutely! (He’ll probably bug Charming for a bit and it’ll likely take Snow 1) coming around to the idea of CS and 2) reminding Charming that they were once like that too. Dad’s typically don’t like their little girls to be around any guy, much less one that reminds him of himself when he was younger – although that may not be the case *quite* so much since they’re about the same age which is weird but at least he’s also around Emma’s age too!)
It’s one of the things I’m very much going to enjoy on my rewatch, finding all of the parallels between them. Planning to do an in-depth analysis as to how Snowing, SwanFire and of course CaptainSwan have been treated thus far. I’m still waiting for Killian to be shown to give us the last *major* piece of the puzzle (partially holding out hope that he was a farm boy – you know, when he was really little before he and his dad set off for adventure on the high seas cause that would pretty much cement it with Charming being a shepherd and all – plus Colin even tweeted that Hook was a little like the dread pirate roberts + alice cooper (I’m assuming the guyliner lol). I want my farm boy! And an “As you wish” would be nice too!
Wow about Snowing’s castle I totally forgot about that! It is kinda off to the side and near water. Best of both worlds for sure and they can have it all! I don’t see Hook giving up his ship but I also don’t see Emma and Henry packing up and going anywhere with him and leaving everyone else behind too except for maybe an occasional little adventure. At least this way the ship would be out back and they could go spend time on it whenever they wanted and not be too far away from the rest of the family. Love it!

ParticipantOh, Oh, Oh & another thing (why didn’t I think of this before!) We all (at least I think it was all of us), thought Hook would give up his vengeance for Emma- well in a way, that is exactly what happened. So those scenes in Rumple’s cell have even greater meaning now- Not only is Hook the only one to come back for Emma, he is the only one who has given up his ‘dark path’ for her as well. I love the parallels of Everyone except Hook leaving Emma- Her parents, Pino/August, Bae/Neal- When she left Hook up the beanstalk because she couldn’t allow herself to trust he was for real, he told her up front & in total honesty, he would NEVER have abandoned her like that- he just had to opportunity to prove those words to be true & he choose to be ‘Killian’, the man Emma could trust rather than just ‘Hook’ the pirate.

Absolutely agreed!
The bean is their symbol 100%. When she was confronting him from the jail cell he was comparing her to the dried bean that was once full of hope and was now nothing – but it was that same bean that he used to get to SB by returning its powers with Lake Nostos. In the finale the bean was HUGELY important, not only to go after Henry of course, but because Hook gave it back to her when he could have just gone off and saved himself and then she gave it to him to get them to Neverland showing massive amounts of trust!
This time when a hand was extended, it was taken and the bean was swapped back and forth. It was very trusting on both their parts and it was beautiful to see! Also the whole idea of the bean that was once dead and gone to Hook like Emma was for betraying him and then he saw the light (well, the lake and then eventually the light) and it became something powerful and important, JUST LIKE EMMA. The beans are a running symbol of what they mean to each other and their willingness to finally start letting themselves trust each other. I loved the exchanges of the beans in this ep!

ParticipantQuite possibly one of the best write-ups of CaptainSwan I have ever seen (with visuals!):

Agreed & yes the bean went from Hook, to Emma & back to Hook again in the span of 2mins lol- Emma could have thrown it in the water, but she gave it back to Hook/Killian to do the honors, that took trust- was also nice to see her up at the stern with Hook 😉
Thanks for the link- will take a look now 🙂 Will be starting work on fanvids this weekend (it’s meant to be wet again, so the ponies can sit in the paddocks & it will be to rough to go dolphin spotting I think 😉 )

Participantok- so I did actually laugh out loud at the last point in that tumbler thing- it’s sea folk humor 😉 (it was very well done other wise)- but they really should have asked someone who knew something about sailing & yachts (in this case a Ketch) before they posted that little bit, as Emma is holding onto a boom while the mainsail is down- she isn’t steering anything (the boom runs off of the mast & is only drives the ship forward when the mainsail is up & catching wind), she’s just holding on like all the others in those scenes 😉

ParticipantLOL, I wondered about that part cause I didn’t remember there being anything that would indicate she was helping steer at all – but she did pick a spot that was closest to him 🙂 Other than that it was pretty awesome and I love the pics that were included to help emphasize things.

ParticipantDefinitely 🙂 & it also gave me some ideas for fanvids as well 🙂

ParticipantOhhhh I do hope Killian gives Emma sailing lessons at some stage during S3- at this point he’s the only one there who knows how to sail the ship & he needs his rest too after all 😉
