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
Regina exhales, but it’s not as intense as it has been before, as she opens her mouth to say, “Okay.” Her voice is small, not as sarcastic or snarky as it once was, but also not without its reservations. This is hard for her, and Wanda can see that.
“Just three months,” Wanda says, finally picking up her glass of water and taking a sip, she desperately needed to do something with herself to settle her nerves.
You smile a toothy grin at them, “Good. Now eat your sandwiches, they've been sitting there this whole time and neither one of them has been touched. Once you’re finished I’ll clock out and we can go.” Wanda and Regina nod towards you, both reaching for their plates at the same time, but as Wanda decides to go for her chips first, Regina grabs at her sandwich.
This was going to be odd. Or fun? Oddly fun, Wanda settled on as she bit into her first chip.
