ok no one asked for this but i’m going to talk about some of my favorite little details from 1x01
1. the door to emma’s apartment have the words “cast a spell” on them (which apparently was completely unintentional but still pretty cool)
2. i don't think this rubix cube means anything, i just like that we get this tiny little insight into emma here
3. you can clearly see emma’s baby blanket in the background of her apartment, as well as some boxes, which i believe are the same ones that get sent to her in storybrooke later on in the season
4. we see snow with a bluebird in the EF, and then later on, at the school, she’s with a bluebird again
5. i know this has probably been talked about a thousand times but i love that we get this shot of emma driving by the clock store (there are so many good nods to clocks and time in this episode and throughout s1)
6. and then of course, the nod to tinker bell
7. there’s a painting of a pear behind regina, which is what a student hands snow (instead of an apple)
8. speaking of apples, regina touches a clock here and then the shot immediately pans to emma setting her drink next to a bunch of apples
9. when emma crashes the bug, we see a the monkeys from the wizard of oz and then a picture of wonderland (i doubt the wizard of oz one was hinting at s3—they didn’t think that far ahead—but wonderland might’ve been there on purpose)
10. here charming brooding over a bowl of apples
11. there are a lot of fairytale pictures in henry’s room in s1 (kind of looks like one of those crime scene boards lol)
12. also henry’s emails don’t mean anything—i just think they’re funny
13. our first hidden mickey
14. henry's swan night light
15. i love this shot of henry looking at the clocktower but also the fact that the library itself is so decrepit looking in s1
16. of course, the key to the room at granny's that is given to emma has a swan on it
17. this is kind of vague but the ring regina's wearing was actually handpicked by lana parrilla and i just love this little detail (it was meant to show that regina is still hanging onto her darker side and past in the EF)

“Hello, Son.” There seemed to be a genuine smile on the Elder Jones’ face as he greeted his son. This was a surprise, considering that the last time Killian had seen him he had been gutful of Killian’s knife and bleeding out on a midnight dock. But the approximation of morning was not done surprising him as another voice from the past sounded from behind his father.
“Hello, little brother,” Liam Jones smirked.
“Younger,” Killian half-whispered as he looked out at the echoes of his past.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emma smiled awkwardly, smoothing her tank top into her jeans, Killian’s ring bouncing between her breasts as she grabbed out cereal, milk, eggs and grapefruit. She squeaked, “Hi!”
Milah just waved before pulling the laces on what was clearly one of Killian’s pirate shirts a little tighter. And fetching coffee cups from the cupboard.
Two men with markedly similar faces bore markedly different expressions. Brennan smirked, doffing his cup to his son, Liam’s face was a picture of revulsion.
Killian, as always fell back on bravado, “May I introduce Emma Swan, Sheriff of Storybrooke, and Princess of Misthaven and Milah, Guardian of the children of the Underworld and ex-wife of the Dark One. Emma, Milah, meet the Jones Boys, my Brother Liam and my Father Brennan.”
Milah laughed, “He always has been dramatic. Emma, love. Tell me there’s more coffee.”
Emma puffed out a soft laugh, “I’ll start another pot”.
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emma handed out coffee and Brennan took Killian out to the porch.
Liam stared at the women in front of him, his disgust poorly concealed. “So, which of you is responsible for the man he became?”
Emma looked at Milah, Milah looked at Emma. They both looked at Liam.
“You,” Emma stated flatly.
“You,” Milah agreed with a nod.
“How exactly did I make him a morally loose pirate?” Liam sneered.
Milah started, “You left him, you died.”
Emma shook her head, “He’s so much more than just the pirate, and that's thanks to you too. He’s honourable, often braver than he should be, proud, arrogant, funny, brilliant, selfless, and a morally loose pirate. You died Liam, you left him because, and no this isn’t fair, but you valued your obedience to your king over him, after that he vowed to bend no knee to royalty.”
Milah barked out a short laugh, “Well, until you.”
Emma admonished her but the dimples on her face gave away her amusement.
Liam spoke hopefully to Emma, ignoring Milah, “So is he lost in the embrace of the Dark Ones cast off or has he turned his back on piracy and sworn the Jewel to Misthaven?”
Emma closed her eyes for a moment before taking a breath, “That isn’t what she meant, Liam.”
Liam’s face flushed darkly before Emma continued.
“We’re sworn to each other, he’s my true love, I‘m here to give him half my heart and bring him home. Milah was his love centuries before, when she was murdered it completed his descent, he was so lost for so long." Emma gripped Milah’s hand for a moment. “His journey has been… you couldn’t possibly comprehend what he has been through, he sacrificed himself to save everyone.”
“So what is this then?” Liam’s pout was now more sullen than judgemental.
Milah smiled her pirate smile, “I’d say that’s none of your fucking business, Captain Jones. Captain Jones the younger survived you by three-hundred-years and who and what he chooses to do is really none of your concern.”
Emma fist-bumped Milah before they rounded on the gobsmacked elder brother of their love. Emma stared deep into those oh-so-familiar blue eyes, “Now why don’t you cut the crap and tell us what you want.”
—------------------------------------------------------
Killian sat on one side of the small table on the porch. Putting down the coffee cup, he gestured to the other wickerwork chair, “Take a seat, fill me in.”

Lost Girl : Found
Chapter 1 of my Neverland New Year 2022 offering.
Firstly a massive shout out to CSColifer who is my writing buddy, editor and muse, who made a whopping 500 edits on this 10k fic, they are my saviour.
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0ISbhObKzpx5LKmXH0xe9k?si=78daf5c1448c437d
Chapter 1 is song 1 Lost Girls by Lindsay Stirling, and I recommend that if you are going to enjoy a beverage with this fic you consider a mug of jasmine tea with a shot of Patrón Silver.

The first chapter of my entry to the Captain Swan Supernatural Summer 2022.
Beta'd beautifully by @jonesfandomfanatic
There will be actually good art later.
Chapter One
“So, you’ve been with my former lover and my son, is that right?” Milah pursed her lips.
Emma hadn’t been prepared for this, “Huh” was all she could say.
Rumplestilstkin smirked, “I’m sure we’re gonna laugh ourselves sick about this one day."
Milah filed behind Rumple and to Emma in a low voice conspired, “But not until he’s buggered off and we can get a drink.”
Emma smiled, this was an odd place, and that was Neal’s grin. The one she'd fallen for, the one full of mischief and promise. And there was the woman of fire Killian had spoken of. The one so strong that he still wanted to save. She saw herself there and smiled at the thought that she and Killian had fallen in love with the same grin.
They walked through the town, Rumple studiously ignored the soft talk between the two women.
Milah asked, "Did Bae still love to draw, when you were together I mean?"
Emma gave her a tight-lipped smile, "We were on the run, his art form was lock picks."
Milah smiled a vagabond smile, "There's a romance to that, what was he like, as a teenager?"
Emma shrugged, "I wouldn't know, he was in his mid-twenties, well, he looked mid-twenties, apparently he was closer to 300 by then, fucking Neverland."
Milah looked confused, "Rumple said… oh... oh gods no," she put her hand on Emma's shoulder, halting them in place. "Why did you have your baby in prison Emma?"
Emma looked at Milah with tired eyes, "It's a long story," she glanced at Rumple. "Let's just say, in some things he took after his father, but Milah, when he was brave, when he was a hero, he wore your smile."
"You've a kind heart, I can tell you’re trying to hide the hurt of it," Milah swallowed and glared at Rumple who was staring at his watch.
Rumple glared back, "I don't care if Hades puts in an extra few licks on your Pirate ladies, but I assume you do."
Emma looked up in confusion "The way in is here? So, what, the gates of hell are in my house?"
Rumple smirked, "As was the stone of Excalibur. The Pirate has a knack for targeting real estate with hidden value."
Milah whispered to Emma with a waggle of her brows that made Emma’s heart ache. "He's a marvel with finding treasure.”
Emma sighed, her eyes caressing the dusting toys and empty crib, “Basement door?”
Rumple nodded, “Basement door”
Emma walked up to the door and unlocked it. Trying to push through the seal on the door flashed and repelled her, “It's a barrier, all right. So what is she going to do?”
Rumple sneered at Emma, even now he couldn’t keep his disdain from his face, “Joining hands will be fine.” He reached out both his hands and, however unwillingly, the women took them.
Walking forward together they passed through the barrier as if it had never existed, Emma and Milah dropped Rumple’s hands and again strangely in synch, wiped their hands on the back of their trousers.
Emma spoke softly, the relief evident, “It worked.”
Rumple’s cold tone held more chill even than usual, “Indeed. One step closer to Hell. The spell's gone. We'll be able to pass through on our own now. Thank you, Milah. You can run back to protecting the dead children.”
Emma held up a hand to Rumple “Hang on.” Emma met Milah’s eyes intensely, “Milah... thank you so much. And... there's something you should know. Your son, Neal, Baelfire... when I was on my way down here on the River, I had sort of a vision of him. I think he talked to me.”

My #1 post of 2022
@everything-person asked if they'd re-use Killian’s headstone, I wondered if the Enchanted forest had its own calendar, it was late and I was sleepy
