    Summary

    What surprised Rumplestiltskin was not so much the fact that he had a sister, but how the Black Fairy had managed to conceive another child. By nature, she could not become pregnant. The laws of magic made it impossible, and Rumplestiltskin was certainly an expert on these laws, just as he was aware of how they could be bypassed.
    So he had a sister, and her name was Colette.

    Summary

    Belle and Rumpelstiltskin are more than just Beauty and the Beast. They're an intellectual power couple with a cosmic mission. As they struggle to balance Light and Darkness in their relationship, the realms follow their lead. Though some readers might call this story an Alternate Universe, it sticks close to the canon timeline and dialogue, so I say it's more of an alternative interpretation. Set almost entirely in Fairy Land before the Curse, new missing scenes create a mythology that fills in the series' plot holes and inconsistencies. If you believe that Belle was right about Rumple's goodness all along, you're the ideal reader for this story. It opens when Belle is returning to her father's palace after her secret trip to Arendelle.

    Summary

    Excerpts from the lives of one Belle French and a Mr. R. Gold in which they are slowly, inevitably, drawn together.
    _________________________________

    It was in that moment Gold found his voice again, and it came out small, almost reedy from the thickness of emotional congestion.

    “I love you too, Bae.”

    This earned him a tired, sarcastic scoff and a narrow, sleepy look over the banister.

    “Where do you get off on calling me that?” Bael asked, and added, with a playful wag of the finger and a mock Brooklyn accent: “I ain’t a kid anymore.”

    Then he slipped away, padding off into the comforting darkness of the house.

    And Gold felt a bit better.

    Summary

    You didn't really think that Rumple and Gideon were the Black Fairy aka Fiona's only children, much less only sons, right? Well, this fic explains it all! Connecting canon characters altogether into one family tree, such as Glinda the Good and the unknown mother of Abigail, including a commonality of twins, are just some of what's in store! In this tale, Fiona had in fact 7 children, including Rumple and Gideon. The seven children/siblings are as follows: Rumplestiltskin, Felix, Stefan, Cleopatra (his sister), Maleficent, Glinda, & Gideon Enjoy!

    Summary

    Gold has a past, a past that he has rejected, but it seems one that will not let him go. Belle, daughter of Governor Maurice French has been kidnapped, along with her mother, and just as the authorities raid the organization that is holding her hostage, decides to make her own bid for freedom, unknowingly derailing an undercover sting, and Agent Milnor has not choice but to take her into 'protective custody,' but is he all that he seems? As the threads of the story grow more tangled and the threat to Belle, and to Gold, her appointed protector, grow ever more real, a growing, mutual attraction makes everything far more desperate and far too personal for Gold to ignore what he knows to be the truth.

    Summary

    "Was that my mistake?" She couldn't keep the entirety of the mental conflict which she had concealed from showing, not any longer.

    "No...No it wasn't. Maybe you still do like me, Addy."

    The girl exhaled shakily as Coach closed in on her further- there was a hair's width between them, and she couldn't stand it, yet she was frozen to the spot. And there was underlying truth in the woman's words as she continued, which, Addy realised, was a painful issue.

    God, Coach was good at this.
