EMMA SWAN and REGINA MILLS 🦢👑 ↳ Beginning & End

[killiansprincss]

I just don’t think I’ll ever understand people that say Emma and Regina is their favourite friendship. In what world is that a friendship when Regina literally barely tolerates Emma because she’s Henry’s mother and belittles her at any given moment, tried to kill her when Emma is simply existing - need I go on ????

[pirateswhore]

Gods, I'm going feral over the friendships on OUAT. the ones we could've had. especially for killian

belle and killian. ESPECIALLY after after the frozen arc. bonding over their hate for Rumple, Belle realising killian was right, forgiving him, killian forgiving himself, bonding over books. killian telling her about his travels.

robin & killian. learning about the modern world together. going through relationship woes together. double dates with CS & OQ. both being outlaws and anti-monarchists while dating royals. the honour and good form that keeps them both in line.

regina and killian. both villains, both trying their best to redeem themselves for the sake of loved ones. fearing that their happy endings will never come (or that they'll lose them). fearing that their misdeeds were so awful they can never atone for them. supporting and keeping each other from relapsing. they both understand the pull of the darkness, ESPECIALLY when darkness plays on your grief and loss of loved one. they both had to put on personnas of power (Queen, Captain) in order to hide the broken mess underneath.

bigger emphasis on Killians' relationship and parallels with David. especially the whole brotherhood notion. Killian's relationship with Henry and how they both helped each other grieve Neal/Bae's death.

Gods. it would've been so good. we were robbed

Friends are forever

Boys are whatever

[swanqueenelmaxshadowhunters]

I can't wait to write the part when Emma is back in Storybrooke and has to face Regina and Mal while trying not to think about all the intimate activities (as Regina would say) they engaged while she was trapped in the past and Lilith being the first to notice Emma's weird behavior when it comes to her mom.

but more than that, I can't wait to write the part of when they all regain their memories and Mal will relentlessly tease Regina about everything that happened at every chance she has lmao

[beckawinchester]

Almost forgot again lol

Day 9

Favorite friendship

I love that how they started off enemies and then they both became friends in the end. ❤️

Title: I Hate Accidents (Except When We Went From Friends to This) Link: Click Here To View and Comment Author: sw722 Find them on: -Twitter: -Tumblr: Rating: Mature Warning(s): No Archive Warnings Apply Words: 12k Summary: After Henry goes to college, Regina and Emma become friends with benefits. Emma quickly realizes what she feels for Regina is much more than friendship but she doesn’t want to be the one to ruin their situationship. What ensues is a lot of misunderstanding…and sex. A lot of sex.

Remember - writers and artists spent months creating the fics and art you enjoy, so it would mean the world to them if you commented to tell them what you liked! A creator who feels appreciated is a creator who is more likely to write or create art again in the future!

Question: Regina the fans are a little scared that by shipping the two of you will make your friendship awkward to the point of you stop being friends. Do you think there’s a possibility for that to happen?

Regina: Let me tell you this, there is nothing

Emma: NOTHING

Regina: in this world

Emma: IN THIS MOTHER FUCKING WORLD

Regina: that would stop me

Emma: EVER!!

Regina: from being Emma’s best friend

Emma: PERIOD!!!!!

Regina: Emma! Now they will make a meme out of this 😒

Emma: DAMN RIGHT!!

Context: Regina and Emma are actors and are at Comic Con with the rest of the cast answering fan questions.

This just popped up in my head while I was brushing my teeth lol

[bloodyshadow1]

it's really weird that they didn't make Supercorp a thing, I say this as someone who watched season 2 and then stopped after the comiccon incident. maybe they refused to make it canon in the show because it was a middle finger to the toxic supercorp fans, and there were a lot of them. I wouldnt' even mind since the second crossover event made me leave the supercorp fandom in disgust, you know whne many of them cheered when and alternate version of Jimmy, a black man, was murdered by Nazi green arrow, because the writers had him get together with Lena, it was bad. Maybe there are other reasons but it's still just strange when you make their relationship the heart of the show and don't have them get together..., it's just weird.

Once upon a time was weird like that, their show had Emma, Regina, and Henry, Emma's biological son and Regina's adopted son, not to mention the fairy tale bullshit that connects the two of them, only for them not to get together.

But with Supercorp, it was something that developed naturally, neither of them had any chemistry with the men the writers tried to pair them up with, and it was horrible writing when they were together. Yet Kara and Lena's 'friendship' kept getting center stage in the series.

season 2 lena was abducted by the daxamites because she was brilliant and had been tricked into bringing them to earth. She's going to be forced to marry Kara's boyfriend because of his mother wanting her as a daughter

season 3 a huge part of the season was Lena and supergirl's relationship breaking down, though she was still friendly with Kara. She bought Kara's job for her and despite Lena getting together with James, the writers never tried to develop that relationship.

season 4 Lena is again a huge part of the story since Lex is the real big bad of the season. The big reveal of Kara being Supergirl to Lena is what was supposed to propel the next season's plot. After she shoots him he makes sure to reveal that Kara danvers is supergirl because he knows that nothing would hurt Lena more. You know her completely platonic friend lying to her is what sets her off the deep end to become a villain.

season 5 their relationship is what drives the plot completely now since Lena is going full villain mode. The writing isn't good, but the writers also couldn't stop the two of them from having chemistry.

Hell, the writers had to be aware because the entire 100th episode was about Kara and Lena's relationship. The entire premise of the episode is Kara getting to see clips of what would have happened with her relationship with lena if she told her she was supergirl at different times or just stayed away from her. Almost every time Kara tells her, there's stress in the relationship and things get worse, but they're all about Lena, 5 separate timelines and Kara can't think of anything she would rather change with her life than try and make things wright with Lena. By the end, the episode is supposedly telling us that Lena is a lost cause, but I don't know it wasn't that good of an episode to begin with. It doesn't change that the writers decided to focus on their landmark episode to focus on Lena and Kara's relationship

By the end Lena realizes that she was tricked by lex and joins the good guys, Kara is pissed at her for what she's done, but they eventually can work together again. When lex sends Kara to the Phantom zone Lena is distraught, more than anyone else, even Alex who at least had Kelly for comfort

Season 6 is about getting Kara back and finishing the show. They kill off Kara's temp love interest and Lena is shown to be so desperate to save Kara that she's willing to go farther than Alex, her loving sister, to get her back. Even at the end of the series, the last scene of two characters on screen having a conversation of the series, is between the two of them at a lesbian wedding, where they're in tears talking about how much they mean to each other and hug.

it is bizarre that the writers didn't have the two of them get together given how much the series was driven by their relationship. Like I said, if it was a middle finger to toxic supercorp fans I would understand, but as an aspiring writer, not even a shipper, I feel insulted about how the supergirl writers just tossed aside the perfect natural relationship in the show.

I don't want to keep going much longer, but thematically Kara and Lena were one of the best relationships in the show. The actor's chemistry between the two of them was better than almost every relationship in the show, especially with any of either of their romantic partners. I dont' know, like I said I left the fandom pretty early and the shows been over for almost 3 years, but it still just baffles me.

[twelverriver]

the fact that when emma and regina hug, it's mostly just so they can both hide their face from each other... choosing to hug your friend after they told you they're engaged might be a normal reaction in other friendships but not for emma and regina !!! no they're both like. oh fuck this is gonna change things. this is gonna hurt. also "i'm happy for you emma, I really am"?? am i supposed to believe that???

[eclipsewxtch]

unpopular opinion: i actually don’t hate emma swan in seasons 1-3 regarding her inserting herself as a mom-figure to henry. “but she was inserting herself after she gave him up! she didn’t raise him! she’s not his real mother! she pushed regina out of the way!”

like. i hate that everyone acts like emma didn’t have incredibly valid reasons to distrust/dislike regina (post-season 1) AND to not trust regina around henry AND to “act like his mom” considering henry, a child barely older than 10, traveled from maine to boston (4 hr bus ride) to ESCAPE regina n convince emma to COME BACK to “save the town” and to stop regina??Henry ranted and raved at every opportunity (even to regina’s face!!) that he thought she was EVIL and DARK, literally to ANYBODY WHO LISTENED; Henry, himself, made it VERY CLEAR that he viewed emma as more of a mother when she wasn’t even present in his life for a decade and he was aware that she GAVE HIM UP even if he didn’t know the reason... (which he eventually did when regina put it in the local newspaper that emma gave him up when she was in prison which was lowkey sick omg???)

like i think it’s more of a green flag that emma stepped up in what was obviously an unhealthy situation because henry was suffering (being treated like he was crazy; unfairly put in therapy/ostracized by regina) and with regina obviously exerting control over henry the way cora did to her all those years ago… like from a non-magical, “let’s assume henry WAS crazy” stand-point; regina had a point. emma wasn’t his mom, she gave him up, she signed an agreement. legally she had no rights. BUT henry wasn’t crazy, there is magic, n regina atp WAS evil. so. emma was right.

does that mean that i think henry didn’t love regina in some way? no, he clearly does care for regina—but are u saying that if some kid traveled four hours by himself at ten yrs old to meet u, his parent who gave him up, talking on and on abt how EVIL his adopted mother is — even if u did assume henry was delusional, wouldn’t it be concerning? wouldn’t u want to get him away from her too? n considering emma was in foster care ofc she had reservations abt regina…

like. regina ended up POISONING henry (even if she didn’t mean it, n henry bit the apple pastry for emma to prove magic was real) her actions had consequences and i see so much emma slander as if she wasn’t in the right??? ts genuinely confused me.

i love regina, i do, she is one of my favorite characters. her character development, her backstory, her personality—all wonderful things. i adore her. but that woman had several screws all lefty loosey up in there n everybody just casually forgets it???

that being said, i think that makes it even more impressive that regina managed (eventually) to gain emma’s trust and friendship after all that bs😭 but re-watching s1 is not for the weak bro

[swanqueenffprompter]

When Emma and her wife, Ruby, move into the apartment next to Regina and Robin, the tension is almost immediate. The thin walls between their bedrooms mean Emma and Ruby’s passionate nights echo through Regina and Robin’s quiet, lackluster marriage. Robin, openly homophobic, expresses his disgust with their neighbors through snide comments and derogatory remarks, while Regina harbors a different kind of resentment—jealousy. She envies Emma and Ruby’s clear connection, their intimacy a stark contrast to her own unfulfilling sex life with Robin, who sticks to the same routine, leaving her feeling empty.

One day, Regina finds a distraught Emma in the hallway. When Emma confides that Ruby has terminal cancer, Regina’s heart breaks for her. Regina, a nurse, offers to help, despite Robin’s cruel remarks about finally getting some peace and quiet after Ruby is gone.

As Regina helps care for Ruby, the bond between her and Emma deepens. Regina finds herself spending more time next door, away from Robin’s increasingly unbearable presence, and closer to the life and love she secretly longs for. Ruby, aware of her fate and the growing connection between Emma and Regina, has one final request for Regina. In a quiet moment, Ruby tells her, “Leave him, Regina. You deserve more than the life you're living with Robin. Let Emma take care of you when I’m gone. She’s got so much love to give.”

After Ruby passes, Regina is left to confront her feelings. She finds herself unable to return to the hollow existence she shared with Robin. Instead, she allows herself to be vulnerable with Emma. As they both navigate their grief, their friendship blossoms into love—something neither of them expected, but both desperately need.

honestly the best part of the Frozen arc is that EMMA FINALLY HAS AN ACTUAL FRIEND FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE CURSE BROKE. not a family member, not someone who saw her as the saviour, not hook (who was a friend but there was as also clearly more there), and not whatever her relationship with Regina is (spoiler alert: it is Not Friendship)

Elsa is her actual fucking friend who supports her and understands her

[swanqueenelmaxshadowhunters]

next on powerless

"It's a shame, because I was really going to spare you," Regina pouted. "Now I'll be forced to kill all of you." With a flick of her hand, the people inside the tavern fell to the ground, their lifeless bodies within seconds. "Burn it all," Regina instructed Maleficent as she exited the tavern.

She waited for the woman to transform into a dragon and climbed onto her back. A maniacal laugh echoed through the village as Maleficent took flight, directing the fury of her flames at the houses below.
