Keeper of Captain Swan's first kiss
Sheâs making a conscious decision to kiss him and JMo even refers to it as a âhumanâ choice. JMo could have referred to it as an animalistic desire to kiss Hook but thatâs not the word she used. If she did, there would be no debate right now. Sheâs actively choosing to kiss him. What happens after the kiss is what Iâm curious about. Because thereâs bound to be remaining tension. The feelings arenât going to go away. Theyâre still going to be there and itâs what happens next, is going to be Emmaâs choice from here on out. Which is also something weâve said time and again. It wonât be Neal or Hookâs choice, itâll be hers and Iâm 100% sure that she will choose Hook, or shall I say, Killian Jones.
yes yes yes yes yes yesyesyesys sdjfklasdjflkjsdl fjasdl
CHOICE IS A CAPTAIN SWAN THEME.
HE’S CHOSEN HER
AND SHE WILL CHOOSE HIM

Omg. Love that meta analysis. It’s perfect. AND IT EMPHASISES “CHOICE” WHICH WAS WHAT I DID IN MY POST ABOVE.
THEY ARE GOING TO CHOOSE EACH OTHER
and it will be beautiful

I LOVE THAT STORY MORAHA
*takes rum*
*imbibes way too much because of feels*
*but it’s ok because Captain Swan, kiss or no kiss in that scene, are CANON*
*AND TIMELESS OKAY WE ARE TIMELESS*

There’s going to be capslock people!!!
I don’t know where to start. Oh here, let’s look at it again:
GOD can we just talk about how Emma is CLINGING to him, and he to her, like they’re never going to let go. And he just has an expression on his face and you can tell he thinks that she is the most precious thing in the whole universe. Their foreheads are pressed together, and that’s a huge sign of intimacy. Their eyes are closed, and they are just CONSUMED with each other.
I’ve seen some SFs trying to downplay this kiss. But i’m sorry, it’s just impossible. Trying to make out that it’s “just” because she’s emotional; Â yes but that is what makes it so ASTRONOMICALLY HUGE. When Henry died did she hop into Doctor Whale’s arms? When Graham died did she go out and find the nearest hot guy? NO. That’s NOT how Emma works. She keeps her emotional turmoil INSIDE. THE FACT THAT SHE’S LETTING IT OUT WITH KILLIAN IS HUGE. SHE TRUSTS HIM.
NOT TO MENTION THAT THE LAST MAN SHE KISSED DIED IN HER ARMS. And that man, Graham, was originally intended to be Captain Hook. But since they couldn’t get the rights at that time, instead they made Gremma, and that into a parallel with Killian – they have both lost people to heart ripping.
And the fact that SHE is the one initiating it (like we freaking said may I just point out), not merely going along with things. HUGE. I remember when we first got talk of the kiss last week – we were SCOFFED at for thinking she was going to initiate it.
The other ships have had to backtrack and backtrack and backtrack with every scene of our perfect Captain Swan together, always had to change, they always had to re-evaluate. But we haven’t. Our momentum has been barreling on towards the only thing that makes sense – that Captain Swan are endgame.
It’s hot, the chemistry is palpable. But so is the vulnerability because they are clinging to each other for dear life. It’s going to be a huge emotional moment, and in that moment Emma will let down her walls and give in to her feelings for Killian Jones. Because she has them, and ANYONE who denies that at this point is delusional. Of course, then she’s going to freak out, her walls will slam back up, and she’ll probably pretend nothing happened or downplay it (AND GOD poor Killian will be so hurt). But it’ll be there. The memory. And then of course Neal will come back and there will be guilt and more emotional turmoil from all parties. BUT EMMA WILL CHOSE HOOK (eventually after a lot of drama). She is CHOOSING to kiss him, she “would pick him” and he “chose” her. At the end of the day it all comes down to Emma’s choice – and it has already been established in previous dialogue together.
And the Snowing parallels. Because jeez, that kiss in 3×02 and 3×05 are identical. Just one more parallel in a long series. If any of you have any doubt about the endgame-ness of our ship, stop doubting now. Because like i said – they’re focusing on Captain Swan. The whole structure of this season has been about seeing them as a power couple, they’re trying to get people to root for them and ship the heck out of them and want more kisses and want them to be together. They’re setting Killian up as the partner for our main character and MARKETING them together.
I’ve seen so many different ships for Hook and i’m just aghast, because they DO NOT get Killian Jones AT ALL. This man spent 300 years avenging his love. He’s IN LOVE with Emma. He’s being redeemed from his dark revenge filled past FOR AND BY HIS LOVE FOR EMMA. AND WE ARE SEEING THE RESULTS IN THE ABOVE PICTURE. He’s not just going to fall in love with anyone else, it would be completely out of character. Emma is it for him. HIS SECOND AND LAST CHANCE FOR A HAPPY ENDING. He’s not going to get redeemed by his love for her and just sail off into the sunset with someone else.
They are going to be an EPIC True Love, just like Snowing. They’re going to trust each other and fight for each other and choose each other and overcome obstacles to be together and they bring out the BEST in each other which is what TL does. Emma does NOT bring out the best in Neal. NOT IN ANY WAY.
So yeah, if you think that Captain Swan are anything other than endgame..
YOU ARE WRONG.

The episode in question? Airs 1 day before the anniversary of their meeting in 2Ă05 The Doctor. 2Ă05 â Meet 3Ă05 â Kiss (Also someone pointed out on Tumblr that Snowing met in 1Ă03 & got married in 2Ă03) but of course, we play out in real time! Also a way more interesting note I hadnât even thought of? THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE SEE HOOK KISS ANYONE. We never saw him kiss Milah, the woman he spent centuries trying to avenge. Nope, we see him kiss EMMA. Now tell me that is not remotely significant.
IT’S NOT A COINCIDENCE. BECAUSE WE’VE NEVER HEARD HIM SAY “I LOVE YOU” EITHER. ADAM AND EDDY HAVE BEEN SAVING IT AND HIS KISSES FOR EMMA ALL THIS TIME. *sobs*
Plus the last time she kissed someone, their fate ended up the same way as the last time HE kissed someone. THIS IS BIG FOR BOTH OF THEM. Itâs massive. Now, I would like to think they are not trolling us for ratings (and it would be rather stupid of them as Iâm sure it just ticks off every other fanbase) so Iâm going to hope that theyâre doing this to get us excited for the pairing that is going to survive. Otherwise theyâre doing a horrible job marketing Neal for this season and are in extreme stealth mode or something. Personally Iâm going with VIVA LA CAPTAINSWAN. *gives cookies*
Yep agreed with all of that. They aren’t hyping up Neal AT ALL, didn’t even give him a proper “believe” poster. If they wanted to hype up the triangle they could have shown us a scene with all three. If they wanted to hype up Swanfire they would have given us a reunion picture.
But no. They’re giving us Captain Swan. Anytime Neal is mentioned it’s in relation to Captain Swan. He’s their obstacle.
Going to work on a long post now, be warned! đ

Itâs been a while since Iâve been back here! I hope you have all been very well and enjoying this seasonâs offerings
And I hope this is able to brighten anyoneâs day. I also hope we make it out of this season alive WE SHOULD PUT THIS ON EVERY PAGE OF THIS THREAD LEADING UP TO 3X05
FOR REASONS

Thanks RG!
I will reply to everyone’s thoughts later when i’m more coherent!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay, shamelessly going to quote myself from a post I made after 3×02:
1) We got the tweet âactions speak louder than wordsâ from Colin
2) We got the line from JMo âthey have an interesting dynamic, which does play out
3) The amazing Snowing kiss that followed the Charming/dwarves drinking scene (foreshadowing!!!)
weâre going to get a kiss this season. JMo has said that Emma isnât thinking about romance, but that doesnât mean that Emma wonât have any romantic moments. So I think we could get it before Neal comes back into the picture, and that would amp up the whole drama of it.
I would like to draw your attention to point 3. The foreshadowing. If you look at the way the Snowing kiss goes in that scene, Snow grabs Charming lapels and drags him close for a kiss and he put his hand on her hair/face.
Now look at the CS photo of the kiss.
DO YOU SEE WHAT I’M SAYING HERE
