no but like. Killian lost Milah because her heart was ripped out and crushed. Cora was unable to rip out Emma's heart. Emma lost Neal because he abandoned her out of fear of the Dark One. Killian never abandoned his centuries long quest to defeat the Dark One. Killian can't lose Emma the way he lost Milah. Emma can't lose Killian the way she lost Neal. 🥹

I will never forgive the OUAT writers for not giving us a Killian and Milah reunion. That man spent literally 200 years to avenge her and he was in the process of moving on. He deserved at least 1 minute of closure. Not to mention that a couple of episodes prior Emma and Neal got that 1 minute of closure.

“The Crocodile”
Okay. I was typing a reblog and it somehow became a rant/spiel, so I’m making a whole post about it.
“The Crocodile” Episode? I know a this isn’t exactly an unpopular opinion, but I’mma say it anyway.
Hook and Milah. Had. It. COMING.
Granted - Hook became cool eventually. But I hated him for a LOT of the series on the grounds of his first impression alone.
Like it’s one thing to run off with a man’s wife. Rumple and Milah weren’t in love and the marriage wasn’t a good one. She put zero effort into their family and taking her off their hands may arguably have been better for everyone.
Seriously. Fuck Milah.
Spinner Rumple tried so hard to be a good husband and father, or at least to make their family work in a loveless marriage, and he deserved better.
Tumblr media
But in spite of that, what Hook did to him on the ship crossed so many lines and he totally deserved to get owned for it.
Let’s review:
Concerned husband boards a pirate ship to beg for his wife back, thinking she’s been abducted. Right off the bat: That right there took courage. It always pisses me off when OUAT characters call Spinner Rumple a coward, because he really wasn’t. The world put him through it and he was doing his damn best. Just showing up to the ship of bloodthirsty pirates, knowing that literally all he could do was beg and hope for the best, took guts.
Back to Hook. So this poor guy shows up to ask for his wife back unharmed. And shy of actually hurting Rumple, Hook decides to do quite possibly the cruelest thing he could have done:
Keep letting the spinner think that his wife had been taken against her will and that she was being raped by the whole crew.
Tumblr media
If Milah was in on the lie, then in my opinion SHE was the cowardly one here. Not Rumple. You want to abandon your disabled husband and son to run off and live the high life with a pirate? Own your shit.
But no. Instead they pushed the blame onto Rumple and gaslit this poor man into thinking it was somehow his fault.
Yeah - Rumple didn’t pick up the sword when Hook challenged him to a duel over Milah. But let’s think about that for a sec shall we?
We have Rumplestiltskin: An older wool spinner with a disability. Who can’t walk all that well WITH his walking stick - much less without it, on a boat, and during a fight with a sword. Which he’s barely held in his life unless you count the crash-course he got as fodder- I mean a new recruit, when he was drafted into the Ogres War.
Versus Captain Jones: A younger, taller, stronger pirate. An experienced swordsman, comfortable on a ship, and with two good legs. AND with a loyal crew of OTHER strapping pirates who would probably kill Rumple even if by some miracle he DID take Hook by surprise or something.
Tumblr media
So really, Rumple had two options here.
Option A: Refuse to fight the bloodthirsty pirate, leave with your life but without your wife, and return home to your now motherless son.
Option B: Fight the bloodthirsty pirate, probably die or at least get badly injured (which could be death within a few days-weeks anyway given his financial situation and living conditions), the pirate takes your wife anyway, and your son is left an orphan who may or may not ever know what happened to you.
So there was no realistic scenario here where he fights off the pirates like a dashing hero and carries his wife home.
What else was he supposed to do?!
Rumplestiltskin is extremely smart. He always was. He knows when to pick his battles and he would have known all of that at a glance.
Refusing to fight wasn’t cowardice. It was common sense.
Tumblr media
And yet Hook, this mothafucka, who must have realized all of this too and put Rumple in this situation in the first place, had the gall to act disgusted about it when Rumple refused to “fight like a man.” And then gaslit him into thinking that he was a coward and a fool for making what was obviously the more rational decision.
Now Hook is a pirate. I never would have expected much from him. But that’s no excuse. What he did was fucked. And karma is a bitch.
Tumblr media
Stupid Game = Stupid Prize
And yes I know this is a pretty commonly held opinion so it shouldn’t be new to anyone but I rewatched that episode recently and needed to get this off my chest. 😤

Bleeding Out
on AO3
Tags: major character death, character insight, inner monologue in canon scene, hurt/no comfort
Summary: When Milah is murdered in front of him, Killian watches his entire world crushed and carried away on the salt-scened wind. He barely reacts to the severe pain and bleeding of his own body.
Word count: 1 084
Tumblr media
He has been a fool for thinking a heart twice shattered had a chance to hold together while still being made of flesh. He should have turned it into solid rock. He should have cast it in steel. He should have thrown it into the ocean deep and leave it to fossilize. Because now its shards are piercing his lungs and he cannot breathe without a stabbing pain.
The softest touch of fingertips brushes against his jaw and he can feel the life fading out of them. Once again, he is powerless to stop it. Once again, he watches the one he loves most turn into a cold, unresponsive, empty body right in his arms. One moment a person, full of life and love and with so many horizons to see, the next a lifeless cadaver. A beating heart is nothing but sand in the wind.
He caresses her cheek one last time, unable to turn away just yet. This is the work of a coward. A coward who wouldn't even put up a fight for her, who has never deserved her beautiful, bold, courageous heart. A coward that hadn't passed his test years ago aboard this ship. Only a coward could hide behind dark magic and dare to claim the life of a woman for not wanting him. He wouldn't fight for her but he would dare seal her fate? How dare he? How dare he!
Does he have any idea what he has just done? What kind of monster is he to destroy the most precious soul in the entire world? What kind of monster is he to take a life worth a thousand times his? Can't he see that he has blocked out the sun? That the sea runs red with blood and the air is turning to smoke? Can't he see that without her there is no point? That all gold has lost its glimmer and all songs have turned to hoarse, empty gasps and all wine has turned bitter and bleak and there will never be joy in this world ever again?
Can't he see, that empty arms, that still feel the remains of a dying loved one's last warmth are a curse most horrid and that he will never ever be able to shake it off? And how dare he let him live with the remains of her last breath clinging to him like frost to a tongue? Once again, he is left behind. Once again, he is forced to watch someone leave and he's condemned to survival. As blood spills on the deck and his clothes, as it runs thick and warm between his fingers as he clutches his wrist, his whole body should be writhing in pain, but he might as well be already fossilizing. He can only feel the hazy edges of it but he knows there is more. It is hanging over his head like a wave stopped mid-motion, lurking, waiting for the cue to crush down on him and overwhelm his senses with the worst agony he has yet to taste. But not yet. It is held at bay by a pain greater still. And a new-born purpose.
A hook is a weapon as good as any other. Anything that has a sharp point can pierce, anything that has a purpose can have another. He couldn't kill the poison that took his brother, but he sure as hell can and will destroy the poison that took his love. His fate is decided the moment when he fails to fulfill that new oath on the spot. And he sees that this is why he is still alive, why he has to be alive even as everyone who deserved to live longer becomes nothing but bones in the ocean and another scar. He was a fool to think happiness was in the cards for the likes of him. No, he has not survived to find a happy ending. He is here to fulfill a different destiny. He must be an emissary of death. He must be the agent of wrath for those that cannot feel it anymore. And he has enough wrath for all of them, more than his wretched heart can hold. He can feel it pouring out through the cracks. And he lets it flood him. He lets it drown out the hopeless, lost despair. And he dons vengeance like a thick, grief-proof coat. What else is there left for him to do but destroy what has destroyed those that made life worth living? A thirst like he has never felt before takes over him. A thirst for crocodile blood.
No, he doesn't need gold to glimmer or songs to sound pleasing and merry or wine to be velvety and sweet. He doesn't need the sun to shine and the ocean to glint in its light. He needs to break what has broken him. He needs the satisfaction of annihilation. He needs to rid the world of this dastardly, abominable demon.
He has loved people whom he would have followed to the end of the earth and beyond. But now they have both fallen off the edge and he is once more left to roam the seas aimlessly like a ship without a crew. Like a wind torn sail without a purpose. The time of love is over. Now there is only one course in the stars for him. The age of hatred has begun. And he will follow it to the blue unknown. He knows what his dying breath will be. A proclamation of triumph when he will have slayed the demon.
The world sways around him as its single focal point becomes the glint of the hook he is holding. And it is then that the wave of unmatched suffering crushes down in full force. His knees buckle and his head spins in haze. And he can't see anything but red, red, red and dark spots and oh, he never knew he could hurt like this.
"Captain!" somebody calls out.
Feet pound on the wood and rush toward him. He is fading. Like Milah's heart. Like Liam's smile. Like a lantern's flame in the draft. But this darkness isn't death, it is merely slumber before he is reborn from the ashes, with a heart of stone this time. He cannot die, for he isn't truly alive anymore. His is an eternal death. A death he will live out to the last weary day. The hunt for revenge has only just begun.

MILLIAN HC BECAUSE EMOTIONS.
so we all know s7 killian is like, stupidly good at art and we don’t explore that for the first six seasons. Like what???? So here’s my hot take on this.
I feel like maybe he knew how to draw when he was in the navy then dropped it, after Liam died, losing the skills. However, he had a sketch of his brother he made, and kept it with him, always. After he meets milah quite a few years later, she helps him learn to draw again, because she needed something to do while having a shitty husband, and while she’s sleeping he does a sketch of her, tucking it away thinking it’s no good, not knowing he wouldn’t get a chance to do it again. Rumple comes back before the sketch is even finished. Throughout his 200 year search for revenge, he always had that sketch of her. Never letting it go, taking her with him wherever he went.

The greatest running joke in OUAT is the complicated family tree and as such I always find it hilarious that Killian is Henry’s stepfather AND basically his step-grandfather.

One of my biggest requests for a world where Neal lived is for him to get to see Milah and watch how all of that plays out.
Understandably, when he finds out she ran off with Hook and his father murdered her, it's glossed over because he's focused on yet another father figure lying to him.
But I'm sure during those two centuries spent in Neverland, he had time to think about it. He also came to Storybrooke at the height of Cora trying to kill everyone off. Watching Regina battle her own mommy issues had to spark something in him.
Rumple tells Milah "He'll forgive you". And I do believe Neal would, it just wouldn't be easy. While Rumple abandoned him, he did everything in his power to find him again. Milah claims she and Hook were going to come back for him but it had been approximately 9 years (I assume he was about 5 when she left and he was 14 when Rumple became the Dark One). Even if she did, by that point she'd be a stranger and traumatize him by ripping him from the one parent he knows. Both choices are terrible.
Neal holds grudges and I can't see him forgiving his mother easily. He also isn't willing to put in all the work. Rumple had to show that he was willing to be the father Neal knew. Would Milah be willing to put in the work?
Just add this to the list of things we'll never get to see.
