ParticipantI KNOW @emmajones!!!!!!! It’s been like that since DAY ONE with CS honestly.
I don’t understand how anyone still thinks CS aren’t TL. It really baffles me. 99% sure we’ll be confirmed by the end of the season, but at the same time it’s nice for us to just enjoy our babies and know ourselves that CS are IT. Everyone else will know soon enough 🙂

ParticipantThere is nothing like Saturday morning smoochies to make me really happy. Eala, I’m sending you a virtual basket of Saturday afternoon Killian delight!
LOL *gratefully accepts* 😉
@callmeLola – completely agree about season 2 Hook in general, but in Tallahassee he was carefree Killian Jones with her, and I think we could all see the potential there. By his own admission in the Echo Cave, he had hope to move on from Milah when he met Emma. It was only when Emma “rejected” him that he re-immersed himself in his revenge. I’m watching season 2 now and it’s painful to see how… in pain he is. He tried to get himself killed twice!!! Poor miserable baby *sigh* I don’t condone his actions for the most part, but what I love is that he doesn’t kid himself that he’s a bad man. He called himself “the worst human around”, says his soul will need some time to prepare in 3×12 and he takes ALL the blame of Henry getting kidnapped in 3×05 when David makes him out to be the only one at fault. Rumple and Regina – they make all sorts of excuses for their behaviour. Killian just knows that he’s done wrong things, and he’s disgusted with himself.
But now he’s a hero – no matter what anyone determined to hate him says. If they say he isn’t – they’re literally ignoring canon *shrugs* I mean, if they want to make themselves blind to the story then… yeah. Not my problem lol.
@emmajones – yeah, maybe a little!Don’t worry @zoeandnimo I will keep this thread supplied with gifsets if it kills me lol. Any CS spoilers I post them here with lots of screaming hahaha, but I know how to block them now so you don’t have to be worried about getting spoiled.

Participant@HappyEndings – I think he does too, but since that pic is from the actual movie… I don’t know, it’s looking like Rumple IS the Wizard. Since they’ve been keeping his filming tightly under wraps. I dunno…… agh I need Monday!!

ParticipantBeautiful meta from hellowherearemypeople:
Emma’s silent sob: Her acceptance that she cares for Hook and her realization that it’s too late.

I’ve seen a number of posts talking about Emma’s goodbye to Hook, arguing over whether or not she intended to leave without speaking to him. Personally, I think she was quite overwhelmed by the entire situation, and kind of stumbling through the whole process (she hugged Belle who she’s never really even spoken with), but I also think that saying goodbye to Hook IS actually something she would avoid if she could.
And her SILENT SOB in the gif above shows that is it because SHE DOES CARE that she wants to avoid this moment. You can see her choking back the tears as he tries to make light of the situation, and then her face drops the second she realizes that this is really happening, this is goodbye.
This moment is so heartbreaking because once again Emma is forced into playing the role of Savior, and she loses out on having the life she should have had because of the curse. This time she is Henry’s Savior, and it’s a role she would choose a thousand times over. Now that he is back in her life she would always pick him over Hook, over her parents, over anyone. But it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t hurt to lose them.
But this time, unlike when she lost her family as a baby, this time she knows what she is losing. She has grown to love her parents, she wants them in her life. She knows Neal is alive and that he wants to be there for her and for Henry…
And she knows that there is this pirate who loves her. And she realizes that she maybe she could love him back. But she isn’t going to get the chance.
Her time in Storybrooke has been a blessing. She’s gotten a chance to get to know her parents, she’s gotten a second chance to become a mother to Henry, and she’s gotten a second chance at love with Neal – but she doesn’t want it. She wants Hook. But she isn’t going to get a second chance with him.
Emma has been rightfully focused on getting Henry back, he has been her sole focus since she first met Hook in the Enchanted Forest. And though she seems hopeful about the “that’s when the fun begins” comment in Neverland, she shuts down any chance at romance the minute his actions with Neal in Dark Hollow put the mission to save Henry at risk. She chooses Henry, and Hook backs off. But as soon as he does, she is aware of his absence. Even in Neverland, she begins to seek him out, reaching for his arm, asking him for advice others could give.
And then they get back to Storybrooke. Every time Emma turns around Hook is side by side with Tink. She not only feels jealous, she feels alone. So when her parents deliver that speech to her in the cemetery, saying that they’ve been through tough times but that there’s always a chance for a happy ending, well Emma isn’t buying it. Because she recognizes that part of their ability to remain ever hopeful stems from the fact that they have each other. She falters as she tells them “I don’t get…I don’t get a day off”. But what she is thinking is “I don’t get what you have, I don’t get True Love, I don’t get a person to share happiness with”.
Because Emma Swan doesn’t NEED a man. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t WANT somebody to go through life with; a partner by her side as she faces the challenges of being a Savior. She just doesn’t think its possible. And she likely feels that she’s missed that chance with Hook.

That’s why it is such a beautiful moment when she sees that cuff in Gold’s shop, and remembers the beanstalk, and she looks up at Hook, who is RIGHT BY HER SIDE. And she recognizes that this man has been there for her, since that beanstalk he’s been trying to be her partner. And he isn’t going anywhere. He isn’t going to leave her. And she realizes that she doesn’t want him to. She hasn’t missed her chance with him.But before she gets a moment to act on those feelings the curse cloud is coming. They are at the town line. And she is having to leave everyone behind. She’s hugging dwarves whose names she probably doesn’t even know. And then Hook approaches her, but facing him is too painful. She starts to break down. Starts to cry. She can’t hug him, she can’t even touch him, because if she does she won’t be able to let go. And he sees this so he doesn’t say goodbye, doesn’t say the things she can’t bear to hear. But he still finds a yet new way to tell her he loves her without saying the words. And she finally admits that she wants him to love her. But she knows it is too late.
