tag drop . but i think i might redo my tags soon im having a lot of issues with them populating

AU where August actually gives Emma the money that Neal meant for him to give her.

Wouldn't change much, but I can imagine it would have changed some things.

✿ (Emma & Neal)

from here

A thought about them that she'd never share: I would light a candle every night when Emma would go away to protect her from Peter Pan.

First impression of them: She's amazing and resourceful

Favorite thing about them: Her smile and quick wit

Least favorite thing about them: That she can be a little too serious sometimes.

Hopes for their future relationship: I hope that we can make amends and maybe have something more.

not to be talking about once upon a time for some reason in *checks watch* 2022, buuuuut. hot take. they shouldn’t have killed baelfire/neal. like it’s such a whack thing to do to remove that character. i’m not saying he was some sort of fan fave that people clamored for but season 2 was so much a set-up for that character that it all feels pointless that they kill him off.

i have no clue what the original plan was in the writer’s room but i feel pretty confident that hook and emma’s relationship was expanded after seeing the chemistry with jen and colin and the fan reaction to it (i think i’ve read about that?) and that’s how they end up writing themselves into a love triangle in season 3 with neal, hook, and emma. but let’s be completely honest... they kill neal to end the love triangle, right? they don’t want emma to have to pick between her first love/baby daddy and her new attraction with hook, possibly because they feel after the ending of season 2 that she would pick neal, but that just feels like such a disservice to hook and emma as a concept. even in 3a, emma is clearly not “making a decision” other than picking henry over both of them, but hook is clearly confident in the bond he has with emma. just because she had history with neal didn’t mean she had to choose him, nor that they had to kill him off to avoid emma making a decision.

and more than the emma/neal plot, the killing off of neal is egregious because literally killing off neal metaphorically kills rumple. and look, i fucking hated rumple for 90% of the show, i’ll be real, but i do genuinely think s1-2 rumple has intriguing moments and do you know why? BECAUSE HIS SON IS HIS MOTIVATION. by killing off rumple’s son, they are effectively killing off any likability rumple had. sure, there’s still belle, but rumple is awful to belle at pretty much every turn. neal is pretty much the only place rumple is redeemable at any point in the series and we have to watch him for THREE MORE SEASONS be the fucking worst with absolutely no good motivation. anyway. hate it.

Link thinking of Moonlight as an Academy award winning movie is such a choice, not that the movie wasn’t great or Oscar worthy, but it is not among the most famous or cinema defining movies that have won (ie Titanic, Lord of the Rings, Silence of the Lambs, Gladiator, Braveheart etc etc etc etc), Moonlight is more on the side of the subtle winners and Link the “I-haven’t-watched-that-movie” guy coming up with Moonlight first thing seems uncharacteristically particular to me 👀

Have y’all noticed that A LOT of the shows and movies he mentions have discovering or embracing sexuality as a central theme?

10 years of Swanfire. 10 years of “Tallahassee, baby, almost home”.

10 years of “All I really want is you”. 10 years of “I stole a stolen car?” 10 years of the keychain.

10 years I’ve laughed, cried and mourned. Forever grateful for this fandom.

@wildthiiing from here:

"You always try and keep Peter out of it." Succeeding was definitely another story. Peter was too smart, and he knew how to read Neal too well for that to work very often. "I like plausible deniability as much as the next girl..." But she wouldn't be asking, if she wasn't willing to at least consider helping him out. "But, hypothetically, how much do you need me?"

@ofhumanvoice​​ continued

“It’s not a tough act to follow when I can barely remember her in the first place.” 

“You ever experience the horrors at seven years old? Or is that just me?”

Can I do it with your iris?

Can We Find the Name Brand?

Currently, I'm thinking about wiping everything S4 finale onward related to Peter being arrested. Mainly BC they had characters do stupid ooc stuff to make these plot points happen. As such, most of the huge plot arcs in s5 and s6 are currently erased. A few of the cases that don't deal too much with the plot will be kept. I may still have Rebecca meet Neal and them be in a relationship in a different way, but if I do, it'll definitely change Neal from being a romantic to being suuuuuper cautious from then on BC there's no way you exit a relationship where an assassin pretends to be in love with you partially to use you without a few scars.

i’m so glad the collective braincell got infected by royalty au it’s superior (.❛ ᴗ ❛.)
