Summary
He turned his gaze on her, his eyes blinking slowly. His pretty blue eyes, shining with tears. Emma blinked. He was incredibly handsome, despite his clenched jaw and melancholy eyes. Or maybe because of them. It was one thing to consider jumping yourself. It was another to stand by and let someone else do it. So she was going to stand here and ironically convince this guy not to do the very thing she was here to do herself.
I know, I know! Just - this isn't what you think! I wouldn't gift this to gingerchangeling for her birthday if I didn't know what I was doing.

Summary
Emma Swan went to Britain looking for family. It should have been a Hallmark movie, a Christmas miracle waiting to happen. Instead she’s stuck in a grimy London ‘flat’, with the worst next door neighbor in the world.
Well, maybe not the worst.

Summary
Before Killian Jones climbed the tower, he was a man seeking revenge, but when he meets a blonde goddess at the top he falls into her light - and into her long, long hair. But when you enter the witch's den, you play a dangerous game, one that breaks your heart first, and then poisons it. For Killian Jones, though, it's worth it.

Summary
Princess Emma isn't the princess of much anymore. It's been months since her parents and brother were taken, and she's been on the run with her godmother Red (she's a werewolf and doesn't age, whether or not that detail is canon because I honestly can't remember). When Emma and Red board a merchant vessel to sail to Arendelle, Emma quickly finds that the captain is not to be trusted. After helping two slave brothers (Liam and Killian, if you didn't figure that out already), Emma takes over the ship and begins her journey to save and rebuild her kingdom.
We've got action, we've got adventure, we've got the most badass Emma I've ever written--there's tension and brothers and curses and love! What more could you want? (Is it Will Scarlet? Because he's also gonna be in this)

Summary
After an unnaturally long life fraught with personal tragedy, Killian Jones has become known throughout the realms as the infamous Captain Hook, an opportunistic ne’er-do-well and one of the most formidable pirates to ride the waves. When he crosses paths with a mysterious young woman with no memory of who she is or how she arrived there, he recognizes the chance to claim a monetary reward that will constitute his biggest score yet. But a journey across the world to get her home leads to a series of adventures that reveal that her value lies in far more than gold and jewels. A Captain Swan Anastasia AU - sort of. (Captain Swan Enchanted Forest AU. Romance, Adventure, & Eventual Smut. Rated E.)
Warnings: Brief but graphic depictions of violence, peripheral character death, and smut.

Summary
Emma Swan came to the underworld with one purpose; to rescue the man she loved from Hades' grip. And she would do anything, sacrifice everything in order to make that happen. When Hades offers her a deal, a test of their true love, in exchange for Killian's life, she takes it. In the end though, the bargain might just take more from them than they have to give.
A season 5B canon divergence, where Emma rescues Killian by herself, with a different True Love test.

Summary
Twice before he'd seen these symptoms in the people he loved most; twice before they were torn from his very arms while he was helpless to save them. In his heart he knows no destiny could be cruel enough to make him repeat this a third time, so he smiles and leaves her the secret she's trying to keep.

Slicked back silver hair, black snakeskin jacket, bright red lipstick, pale skin. That was what she had been reduced to. Everything that wasn't her.
****
My take on Emma's time as a Dark One, as well as a canon divergence from Swan Song.

She doesn’t need anything – not anymore, not when she feeds on the power within her, not when the world around is dull, grey. She doesn’t need anything, but magic always comes with a price.

Emma's still having a problem balancing "being the Savior" and "enjoying the moments." Good thing she picked a partner who'll let her find her footing.

Summary
There’s a name for fools like her, she realizes, watching him. Because this is weird—like Killian has become someone else in the last 24 hours, like he’s a stranger to her—and she lives in a world of witches and magic and spells and curses. There are any number of things that could make a man she—she trusts no longer himself.

Summary
The boy is sitting on a cracked bright yellow curb, curled over a notebook that’s planted in his lap. Scribbling. Messy curls falling into his eyes.
“Danny?” a woman calls over, and the boy looks up. “You need a ride?”
Wherein, Peter has an unusual afternoon.
