Aw thanks guys! I know I can be long-winded and I try to cover things from different angles than I have before but sometimes I just can’t remember. So happy we have 11 weeks of new material in a row this season to work with and glad someone enjoys my rambling from time to time!
I LOVE your long-windedness, don’t ever change! 😉 now where is that CS photo from EW, I need it YESTERDAY

You’re all such good writers – MysteyKat, thanks for your long posts. I enjoyed reading them and I agree on all of it. Let’s tweet to Adam that we believe in Captain Swan. In fact, I’m going to do that right now.
Thanks moraha! Your thoughts are always welcome too 😉 I took your advice and randomly tweeted Adam some love. Haha!

Ha I love it! Apparently people are saying that the coconut Emma was holding in the promo is the same one Killian gave her? How would anyone be able to tell that? Haha.

That picture will come on Friday.
I’ve seen some people saying that they get their issue in the post (American word=mail lol) on Thursdays!

Awww. Wrote another meta yesterday. Nothing really that new since it’s based on two twitter questions Jen answered on Sunday during the episode.
Yeah I check tumblr blogs probably once or twice a week, normally after each episode ends.
It’s an excellent summary 😉 I agree with everything. I cannot get over how sad it is that she gave up Henry because she was in jail. I just can’t, it literally makes me want to cry.
Anyway, so extremely excited for the EW magazine, hopefully we’ll get the picture sometime tomorrow!

Do you have a tumblr Eala? Because it feels like I read the same exact words about that being a Freudian slip.
I’m not on tumblr no, but I DO follow a lot of blogs (including yours and MysteryKats!) to see what they’re saying! And yes I follow the blog where it was mentioned that it was a Freudian slip 😉 A lot of things get mashed together in my head on tumblr haha.
It is beautiful and real and it is sailing. I refuse to believe otherwise at this point. There has been NOTHING they have shown us that eliminates it. I’ll admit, I have my moments of doubt. I rewatch an episode a couple of times before saying it was a good thing for us. I sometimes wonder if this or that means that it has to be SF and we’re just kidding ourselves. But when I analyze it and breathe, I always come back to being able to put my fears aside because they have set it up so beautifully and I do believe in it. F, T, & P.D. for us right? I BELIEVE.
I’ll admit, over the summer I was only 99% sure that CS was the endgame direction, the hiatus got to me a little. But after what they’ve shown us so far, especially over episode 3×01 and 3×02, it just goes to show that Killian is going in the direction that CSers predicted, and I now have ABSOLUTELY no doubt. None. It’s all there, plain as day, IF you want to see it.
They have set it up incredibly. It’s very subtle sometimes, but it’s there. Even the evolution of Emma taking drinks from him has just been amazing.
Ah I see. I hope JMo is not teasing us!
Having these CS moments makes watching Once even more enjoyable than it already is! I’m like a kid on Christmas Eve before each Sunday. 99.9999% sure it’s a CS kiss 😉 Matt is a CS shipper, and he deliberately brought the subject to Killian after JMo mentioned the kiss. And although some people debate it, Eddy is a closet CS shipper, and he was like “I wonder who that is?” wink wink nudge nudge. Lol. So yeah, no doubt.

Hm well as to the coconut, I somehow think it’s going to help them get home from NL, since Emma was holding a coconut in the 3×04 promo and looking up at the… pixie dust?… when she said “home”. Also MJR was holding a coconut, and he’s made it out of NL before, so SOMEHOW the coconut is important. Haha. Somehow the coconut helps them get out of NL, that’s my current theory lololol.
As to the Neal thing well, if Neal was still Bae, had Bae’s honour, integrity, innate morality, bravery, taking the path less trodden etc. I would be much more amenable to the idea of him being Emma’s TL. I would. But the fact is, adult Neal has made some selfish choices under the guise of being selfless. He’s literally fooling himself. He left Emma because he wanted to get her home, but the fact was, he ALSO wanted to avoid his father. He put Roland in danger to get to his family because he wanted to save them, never mind the fact that he was potentially going to ruin two lives because of it. I’m sure that being in NL for 300 years has permanently and psychologically scarred him.
Ugh, and the thing that kills me, JMo has tweeted that she would have kept Henry if she hadn’t been in jail. I’m literally so sad about that. It wasn’t necessary to send her to jail. I get that she will be able to forgive him, and I hope she does. But the fact is he made decisions for her that had HUGE consequences for her life. HUGE. I don’t know about you, but personally I would NEVER, ever, in a million years, trust that person not to break my heart again.
To me it’s fairly obvious that they’re setting up Captain Swan as endgame. They have paralleled them extensively with Snowing, while also giving them their own love story. Killian is being redeemed through his love for her. The structure, the dialogue, the filming choices, the characterisations, the body language, EVERYTHING, is a great neon sign pointing towards CS for me. I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life, and i’m being honest here, that CS is endgame.
The entire structure of season 2 would have been different if they were setting up SF. Time and again Neal has been referred to as an OBSTACLE to the CS ship, he was introduced as an obstacle in the first place, because he was the one who broke her ability to trust. JMo has recently tweeted that HOOK reminds her of NEAL i.e. she has to get past that before she can be with Killian. Neal has been paralleled extensively with his father, and there has been enough foreshadowing for me that I think Neal will be going down a dark path. Whether he does or not remains to be seen. JMo also gave an interview at NYCC that obisgirl touched on and these lines in it are VERY interesting:
Hook is the one who is helping her right now. Hook is the one who is present. He’s the one who’s sort of surprising her by following through on what he promises to do. And seems to be doing this very selflessly instead of selfishly. And so she’s definitely taken aback by how different he is than she expected.
Between the above quote and the fact that she said Hook reminds her of Neal, well, she’s obviously comparing the two (thanks again obisgirl!). It’s a Freudian slip – JMo is unconsciously giving us a comparison there. Basically that she expects Killian to do the wrong thing in every situation and is surprised when he doesn’t. Killian is following through on his promises whereas Neal didn’t. He’s acting selflessly instead of selfishly unlike Neal. And Emma is learning the difference between the two of them.
That’s where JMo’s mindset is at the moment. It seems like she doesn’t ship SF either.

It’s a CS kiss. No doubt about it. Matt is a hardcore CS shipper, and he deliberately moved the subject to Hook after Jen mentioned the kiss.
Plus the kiss was foreshadowed in 3×02.

I think JMO’s indirectly comparing them because I saw another post, from one of my fellow ‘shipmates that said the same in reference to their actions:
Killian is selfless right now it’s not a drill it’s canon, on the other hand you have Neal who’s being selfish. X
Maybe she is! 🙂
You write very well half asleep, lol 😉
