    @CaptainEala Are you from any where near COLIN???

    @rumplegoldfan – personally I’m fully convinced that Killian was drinking.

    Long story short I’m from Ireland and as I’m sure you’re all aware the Irish have a drinking problem. I come from long lines of alcoholics on both sides and have painful experiences of what drunks are like – and the many, many different kinds of drunks.

    I don’t think Killian is an alcoholic – but I do believe he has a drinking problem. The fact that he wasn’t stumbling in the scene tells me nothing about whether or not he’s sober. When a person is used to habitually drinking, they can handle an obscene amount of alcohol without seeming drunk (eg. I have seen my father drink an entire 750 ml bottle of whiskey in less than 2 hours and still seemed relatively sober) and Killian has been a habitual drinker of rum and beer for over 300 years.

    And secondly alcohol exacerbates your mood at the time of consumption. If you’re happy – you’ll get happier, if you’re sad, you’ll go into a deeper depression. What we saw in 3×10 with Killian really shows that, I think. He seemed relatively ok in the diner when he told Neal he’d back off – but I’m sure the sadness hit him when he saw Neal and Emma speaking. That’s why when we see him nearly a whole day later, after drinking I’m pretty sure for the whole night, his pain is likeĀ a LIVING THING.

    That’s just my personal opinion, but as it’s based off personal experiences I’m pretty confident in it.

    I wouldn’t pick Neal but on the downside of Hook, he left Emma and Snow in jail with out ever a chance of getting out alive so I can’t really say sorry.

    I really don’t hold that against him at all. Emma is my most favourite character in the history of forever, and while i don’t think what he did was great, i do kind of believe it was justified to be honest. I know you’re probably protective of Snow though.

    If you look at it from his point of view:

    • Killian risked his life to distract Tiny so that Emma could knock him out with the powder – he was literally trusting that Emma would pick up on his improvised plan (because they weren’t expecting Tiny to be so big) and he almost died then and there
    • Killian never got to bond with Tiny like Emma did – as far as he knew Emma was putting his life in the hands of a giant whom who has always been known to kill humans
    • She trusted a giant she had just met, whose favour she had to EARN first, when she should have trusted Killian, the man who was nothing but honest with her about the beanstalk and who had risked his life for their mission
    • So to sum up his point of view: she had used him, tricked him, and left him to die, when the WORST he had done to her was lie about his identity

    ALSO: Emma/Snow/Aurora/Mulan had tied him up to a tree and would have left him to be killed by ogres. Literally just because he lied about his identity.

    Thank you for your warm welcome! Thanks, I like my username, too! I was staring at the screen for a bit trying to think of a username that fits my ship, and this is the one that popped up! LOL..

    Oh it’s perfection. I have a twitter account with the same name lol

    love them both too much that when my CaptainSwan ship mode is on, I totally forget everything, even my boyfriend who’s waiting for my reply to his texts LOL.

    WE UNDERSTAND šŸ™‚

    Exactly! Emma is good for him.

    ABSOLUTELY

    And 3×10 also showed just how bad Emma was without him – she went back to having NO HOPE for happiness even though in 3×08 she was telling MM “there’s always a way” etc.

    They bring out the best in each other and it’s beautiful

    *sobs*

    Hello! I hope I’m welcome here . I’m a new member but an old time Captain Swan shipper! I just have been more addicted to these two recently now that the story is heading towards a Captain Swan endgame! I can’t stop day dreaming about it.

    OF COURSE YOU’RE WELCOME!!!!! We love seeing new shippers and new points of view! (love your username hehe)

    You are in good company here haha, i’m absolutely OBSESSED with these two.

    Graham and Liam both died ( Graham’s heart was crushed and Liam’s heart was poisoned) in Emma and Killians arms and both had to take over after the death of their superior. It might have been pointed out but I just wanted to share XD.

    AGH MURDEROUS FEELINGS

    I possibly saw a gifset of this before but you gave me a feels hit anyway šŸ˜‰

    That parallels Rumble’s story when he 1st meet Hook and didn’t fight for his wife.

    Absolutely šŸ™‚ Emma and Milah have been paralleled many times, and Neal and Rumple have ALSO been paralleled many times.

    Just out of interest HE, who would you chose for Emma out of Neal and Killian if you HAD TO chose? šŸ™‚

    Little Bae was great but this guy no way in my opinion.

    He’s growing on me a bit. In fairness to MRJ, i think he acts his scenes with Rumple VERY well. I just don’t think he’s been given a lot to work with from A&E so far yet, when it comes to emotional storylines. Because Emma isn’t his TL lol. We’ve said here in the CS thread many times that Neal is just a plot device.

    I hope Hookerbell isn’t where they are going.

    Definitely not haha! I mean, anyone who watched that scene knows it wasn’t in the least romantic!!! (at least i hope they do lol or they have to re-evaluate their definition of romantic)

    I think in all reality, his real emotions are tied to Emma.

    ^^^^^

    Hook is a pirate with a drinking problem

    Don’t you think it’s significant that after Pan told him he had a drinking problem in “Good Form” we didn’t see him imbibe ONCE until 3×10, when he had separated himself fromĀ his True LoveĀ Emma? šŸ˜‰

    Killian Jones was a man who thought rum led to bad form. Emma brought him back to that self after they kissed… and once he lost her his Captain Hook persona emerged again.

    Lol… i am totally loving this

    Sounds like trouble… #OnceUponATime pic.twitter.com/oskggWASWa

    They’ve captioned it “sounds like trouble”

    i.e. sounds like trouble for Captain Swan

    i.e. tune in this week to see Ā what happens with Captain Swan

    to be honest i think we should be getting our hopes up a lot because they’re using CS to try to draw people in this Sunday

    So yeah. I’m not saying we’re going to get something AMAZINGĀ but actually i kinda am but yeah I wouldn’t be worried about CS in the slightest for the winter finale hehe.

    From onceuponamirror

    Okay but i’m still not done talking about it
    Let’s talk about this line for a sec, eh?

    “Don’t thank me yet. You see, I’m in this for the long haul. And you already walked out on Emma once; not so sure she’ll let you back in.”

    We’ll get to the gloriousness that is the long haul at the end, because first I want to talk about Hook bringing up a point I—and other CSers—have been making for a long time.
    If the true love story wasn’t about Hook and Emma, but about Neal and Emma…Hook wouldn’t be necessary. He wouldn’t be part of the equation.
    Like Hook himself just said, he isn’t the obstacle between Emma and Neal. Their past, what Neal did to Emma, and how she had to carry that pain for 11 years, is the obstacle.
    He knows that Emma and Neal can’t work out in the end, which is why he’s decided to be patient, even if it kills him. But inevitably when Neal and Emma fall apart FOR GOOD, he doesn’t want to be held responsible by them…OR by Henry.
    Like I’ve said, he wants to be a part of Emma’s family, and being seen as a monster in the eyes of the boy he wants to be a stepfather…isn’t something he’s looking to repeat.
    He’s well aware of how similar the situations are, but he knows he doesn’t have to ā€œtakeā€ anyone away (even though Milah had her own agency the first go of it), because Emma will leave Neal on her own.
    Now, to the long haul.
    You guys…I hope you’re never, ever, ever nervous again.
    Not only did Hook and the writers just say on screen a synonym for ā€œendgameā€, but it also shows (once again) how IN LOVE Hook really is.
    This is not a man who loves easily, but when he does, it’s unwavering and with his entire being. He knows he wants to spend the rest of his life with Emma, and he knows it might take a while for her to be ready for that, but he doesn’t care.

     

    He’ll wait. He’s not going to move on.
    Unlike some people.

    So accurate.

    I did another rewatch this morning and can i just point out some things about Emma’s dialogue in the Daddy!Charming scene:

    Are you sure you don’t have other reasons for pushing me towards Neal

    I mean, i think that pretty much says it all. Pushing implies reluctance. She doesn’t want to go towards Neal.

    I don’t know, keeping me away from Hook?

    Implying that Hook IS something she wants to go towards.

    I mean really, those two bolded things are the complete opposite of each other.Ā Emma is so done with Neal, like really. Honestly at this point i can’t see her getting with Neal for Henry’s sake for even a short amount of time. The writers wrote it this way for a reason.

    @CaptainEala Thanks! Those were just too beautiful to pass up.

    Oh i agree. We should definitely keep posting the gifs here – i think we see a lot more than we wouldn’t have seen immediately when the episode aired šŸ™‚
