Summary
If one did not watch Michaela closely, nothing would have seemed amiss. She smiled, as always, mirthful, as always; but Francesca was watching closely, and she saw that smile freeze, for just half a second, and then suddenly, like a jam jar coming loose after half an hour’s effort, Francesca understood.
“An innate indifference,” she said, “to men.”

Summary
Yelena cracks an eye open and looks over at her. "We live in different worlds, Kate Bishop."
"Not so different that we aren't still sitting in the same dive bar eating the same weird pizza and drinking the same shitty beer," Kate mumbles, and Yelena laughs. It's a genuine sound, bright and almost shocking for how carefree it sounds. When she finally stops laughing, she grabs the last slice of pizza and tears it in two. She slides half of it over to Kate and nods as she takes a bite of her own piece.
"That is true, Kate Bishop. That is true."
OR
Clint is convinced Kate and Yelena are dating, Kate is determined to prove that he's wrong, and she and Yelena are both maybe in denial about the fact that they might be more than just Very Good Friends.

Petals descending from the ceiling. Yennefer knew right away it was Tissaia, from way above up in her study, honoring her fallen girls. She looked at them, admired how they fell silently to cover the freshly dug graves.
Then the pain came.
Sharp, burning, unexpected.
Yennefer gasped.

Summary
Post-finale. Regina returns home to Storybrooke after years away to find that very little has changed in the years since she'd been gone. She still has a son there waiting, struggling to adjust to a new world. She still has a partner, a best friend in a turbulent marriage who looks at her with far too much raw affection in her eyes.
But Emma also has a little girl now, an infant with Regina's eyes and Regina's magic, and soon, all of Storybrooke as Regina has known it will change irrevocably with her arrival.

Monsters and Negatively Charged Ions by DiazTuna for insanetwin, coalitiongirl
Fandoms: Once Upon a Time (TV)

Summary
The thing about monster hunting, Emma discovered, is that contusions and concussions are pretty standard. Someone had suggested she wear a helmet to face a draugr. Nasty, rotting things with the strength of a bull. She assumes that is not a suggestion she took seriously considering that a doctor is currently shining a light on her eyes.
Or when Emma Swan gets amnesia and must take her wife out on a blind date.

Emma might be having visions of her death, but they definitely don’t have anything to do with Regina, okay? Now if she could only convince herself, she might be getting somewhere.
Alternate Season 6A. There are two versions of Regina running around town, Emma’s got possession of the Fates’ shears and is still dealing with the fallout of having been the Dark One, and the Charmings have had the gall to bring up the Final Battle when everybody else had forgotten about it. Regina and Emma haven't had a real conversation since they were last in New York, but they can totally deal with fate pitting them against each other again, right?

Wheein takes a spoonful of the cake filling, the flavor of peach suddenly unmistakable.
“I saw your performance,” Wheein says around her mouthful, “short hair does suit you best.”
Hwasa grins at her, leans closer, arms resting on her knees, “Wheein-ssi it’s so nice to finally meet you.”
Her gaze drops to Wheein’s wrist, covered in her sweater and bracelets, Wheein pulls back, tries not to look at the way Hwasa's skirt stretches over the fullness of her thighs.
Wheein doesn’t know what to say, her face feels hot, she knows she has a full blown blush spreading across her cheeks.

Summary
Emma almost has everything. She's got a wonderful son, a beautiful, tender friend and co-parent, and a family she can count on. It was all she ever dreamed of, once upon a time. At times, she thinks she finally understands what authors mean when they end their story with: they lived happily ever after.
But the feeling always leaves her by the morning. Sometimes she thinks her real happy ending has disappeared somewhere in the past, somewhere in between the curses and forgotten memories. And now it is only a possibility lost to her memories.
If she could go back...
(or in other words, season 6 emma goes back in time and accidentally makes season 1 regina fall in love with her.)

Summary
Here's the thing. Ms. Swan and Ms. Mills hate each other. Their feud is the lifeblood of the Storybrooke Middle School rumor mill. Discerning observers might suspect something else entirely– a crush, masked by obnoxious hostility and even more obnoxious pranks– but in the long run, what's going to get two romantically repressed women to figure out that they're uselessly in love?
Maybe a really dramatic Homecoming. Maybe enough interference by the resident baby gays of Storybrooke Middle School. Maybe a few more moments of unexpected vulnerability.
Maybe a little boy with a secret.
