Summary
After returning from the Land of Untold Stories, Belle and Rumple went their separate ways for a short time. They may have never reconciled, if not for the intervention of their daughter, and received a much-needed warning of the battle to come.
(This became much more convoluted than I intended: now it's become the Gold-Charming family feud that we should've gotten)

Summary
(Swanfire/Thursday Next AU) In another 1983, a laboratory accident opened a rift to the Enchanted Forest. For thirty years, many such Persons of Dubious Reality (PDRs) have lived in a protected town in Maine, designated for their use and kept separate from the rest of the world, except for when their written lives dictate a predisposition to trouble, in which case it is the job of the underfunded Nursery Crime Division to wrangle them. Officer Emma Swan has worked in the NCD since leaving the Union Army ten years ago – being a PDR herself, she’s somewhat uniquely qualified for the job. But she might have her hands full when Peter Pan starts kidnapping fairytale characters; not to mention that she also has to find time to halt the American Civil War, figure out who really wrote Shakespeare’s plays, and persuade the man she still loves not to marry another woman.

Summary
Following Zelena’s defeat, the people of Storybrooke settle into life back in the Land Without Magic. Though trouble is always just around the corner (especially with King Richard testing the leadership of the town), it’s nothing that Emma and Regina can’t handle. At long last, it looks as if the storm is over. But villains can appear in the strangest of places, especially after a betrayal comes to light that will shatter the line between good and evil. Edited Universe, Alternate Season 4, continues on from There But for the Grace of God

Edited Universe - A Briefer History of Magic by Shepherd23
Fandom: Once Upon a Time (TV)
13 Dec 2017
Summary
Dissatisfied with the way canon has been treating beloved characters for the last three seasons? Well, this is a complete rewrite of OUAT starting from ep. 3x11 (canon up until then; if it doesn't get mentioned explicitly, assume it didn't happen). It roughly follows the path of canon but some major mistakes have been fixed, including:
- No CaptainSwan. Ever.
- Neal lives, repairs his relationship with his father and Emma and actually gets to be a freakin' dad
- Rumbelle in-character; some angst, but hopeful and it'll be worth it in the end
- OutlawQueen have some actual development, rather than a shoehorned relationship. Also Robin doesn't die.
- characters like Robin, Belle and Snow don't get shoved to the sidelines, only to appear when the plot (or a certain pirate's so-called redemption) calls for it.
- Not Zelena-friendly. Ever.
- Bit iffy about Hook; he spends a lot of time drunk under a bar and once got mistaken for dirty laundry.
- Blue Fairy is shady and may be villainous.
- Balanced ensemble cast with recurring appearances from other sidelined characters.Rumbelle, Swanfire, OutlawQueen and Snowing to the end! Hope you enjoy!

Summary
Alternate Season 5. Merlin is long dead, Camelot destroyed. Emma is the Dark One, without an easy answer. Rumplestiltskin becomes the Sorcerer, but magic alone cannot save her. An age-old war against darkness revives in Storybrooke, in which the fate of all the realms will be decided forever—and the final battle begins.
CS until about chapter 50, after which it will shift towards slowburn SwanFire.
Winner of Best AU!OUAT, Best Season Rewrite, and Best OC in the 2016 TEAs.
