[adrotate group="5"]Keeper of Captain Swan's first kiss
Then I look at Emma and Neal and judge all the obstacles they have: almost 12 years separation, betrayal, a son of whom they have to share custody with the evil queen, Neal’s almost-death, their son’s capture, and most of all… the personal issue of whether they can ever get past all the pain. I’m looking at all that, and I think they have enough issues and plenty of drama before they can actually be together. They aren’t in any need for more drama, so bringing Hook into the mix and having him fall in love with Emma? That serves me no purpose. Really, it doesn’t. Unless, a double broken-hearted Hook is the idea, but what would that serve? To make him more evil? I don’t see that motivating him to be more evil though… just more depressed. A depressed Hook isn’t a fun Hook, so dragging him through that seems like a way to ruin his character.
ALL of this.
A love triangle does not in any way serve SF AT ALL.
It serves CS, because it’s a way to bring drama into the relationship – and provides romantic suspense for CS, which OH YEAH JMO CONFIRMED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO
I know SFers have apparently been saying that Emma needs Hook to ~face her feelings for Neal~ but IMHO that’s BS. Because Emma is not in denial about her feelings for Neal in any way. She told him she loves him, and probably always will… BUT
It’s not even a real love triangle – it’s pretty obvious that A&E are resistant to the idea of it. The ridiculous lighter scene in Dark Hollow where the ENTIRE fandom cringed in mortification for Killian and Neal… it was literally A&E poking fun at the idea of a triangle, and we haven’t seen anything on the triangle front since (unless you count where Killian himself destroyed the triangle by backing off in 3×10). Adam said “how does a triangle drive any story?” i.e. what we’re doing here is not a triangle, it’s a pretty obvious love story with a pretty big obstacle.

I didn’t notice either! How telling, she’s always the first to pull away. Hopefully, once she remembers, what she’s feeling in this moment — and learns sometimes you just have to act on your feelings instead of build walls around them…she was soooo close to achieving this milestone before everything just imploded on her…
I’m really excited for 3B, because for all of 3A they’ve been focussing on Killian’s feelings. I have a feeling it’ll be leaning more towards what Emma feels in 3B, especially because I think we’ll be getting “I love you’s” and a TLK.
She’ll never be all lovey-dovey.. that’s not who she is. But it’s the little things that count with her. Like when she said “good” to him. And JMo has said that after NL Emma is a bit more comfortable with expressing herself (I think she said it on twitter) emotionally. UGH I’M SO EXCITED
he must have OTHER clothes on that boat! He’s been a pirate for 300 years and he’s only got one pair of pants?! Seriously, Wardrobe Dept!
Lol… I think he has 3 vests anyway. We’ve seen him in his red vest, his current vest which is becoming more unbuttoned all the time lol, and I think he was wearing another vest in QOH. I’m sure he has more than one pair of pants haha, maybe he has 2 of the same leather pants??? I wouldn’t mind if he keeps them forever to be honest 😉

Thanks for sharing @emmajones! Should have caught that actually 🙂

ohhh… you are quite right… I never took that into account for Hook… I assumed a lot had to do with them needing to keep him in sleeves to hide Colin’s hand… like the bathrobe in the hospital.
They’re pretty good at hiding that even without the coat! Lol.
I think we eventually will see him with normal clothes but it most likely won’t be until he and Emma have exchanged “I love you’s” that that will happen. IMO 🙂

Just by being around 300 years and being old school he would not easily set aside the familiar and the last bit of his old identity. Plus he has does some drastic changes of late… put aside his revenge, is letting Milah go, loving Emma… and it seems he quite drinking.
Good points! I also equate his pirate jacket specifically to his emotions. In Tallahassee he has it off the whole time while he’s with Emma, and you can see that he’s very Killian-Jones-ey rather than maintaining his Captain Hook façade. He wasn’t wearing it in the scene with Rumple’s cell either, where you could see his hurt pouring out of him. It’s only until the Lake Nostos
sexswordfight scene, that he’s actually wearing his coat again, and the sarcastic Captain Hook persona returns (“I may be a simple pirate but I know one thing – lakes have water”). We don’t see Killian with the leather jacket off again until 3×04, when he’s giving Emma a coconut (and Tink is there too watching them) that you can openly see the absolute adoration on his face.It’s a direct parallel to Emma, who, as has been confirmed, wears her red leather jacket as her emotional armour. Notice how she decided to put it on again in 3×10 after their return from Neverland, because
1) Henry was acting strangely
2) Killian was distancing himself from her
3) Neal had asked her out and she was very conflicted about it
so she obviously felt VERY emotionally vulnerable.
When it comes to the main characters, everything is deliberate down to a “T” lol.

Yeah, I don’t know what’s up, but she hasn’t been seen at all as far as I know, although her love life is supposed to be explored isn’t it? Or at least Rose said she hoped it would. Neal hasn’t been seen filming current SB stuff either, so maybe he and Tink will team up and go do something? Or escape the new curse altogether? @MysteryKat25 would be happy with that anyway lol.
To be honest I’m more inclined to believe that Killian comes to the whole TL “revelation” himself mostly… Or maybe Charming AND Tink will nudge him in that direction. He’s believed in their love so far, is in it for the “long haul”, so he could actually just come to that conclusion on his own.
Is it March yet?
Keeper of Captain Swan's first kiss
Uuuugh this is one of my favourite gifs of the two of them… in their own little bubble, smiling at each other. *happy sigh*
Keeper of Captain Swan's first kiss
@obisgirl – I like that theory, but Rose hasn’t been filming lately has she? Or am I wrong? Yay! on getting TPB by the way! 🙂

I am telling you I wish Hook would get some new clothes that black cape and outfit has kind of ran it’s course for me I don’t know about the rest of you shippers. I wonder if the guy playing Hook must be getting tired of them too surely.
I’d wouldn’t mind a new outfit but he isn’t ready yet (emotionally speaking). Looking forward to seeing him in his red vest so that’s enough for me now 🙂 I would say Colin is getting fed up though, yeah!!! 🙂
