    Summary

    A Swan Queen-focused re-imagining of the 4x07 - 4x09 arc because, as much as I loved Gay Elsa, bringing Emma back to herself and in control of her magic should have been done by Regina.

    On top of all the Swan Queen, plenty of Swan-Mills Family feels abound.

    "Regina clenched her jaw, tried to look more annoyed than the fear she felt. Eventually all she could do was slowly reach out and press her palm to Emma’s. It felt like fire, hot but not painful, like closing a circuit; the flow of nervous electricity. And then Emma braided her long fingers with Regina’s and in the tapestry of their knuckles, everything else disappeared."

    Summary

    A SwanQueen re-imagining of 4x10-4x12, where the Snow Queen's Shattered Sight curse hits and Regina becomes the Evil Queen again for just a little while.

    Set soon after  Normal [Monsters], and while I don't think it's entirely necessary to have read that first - hey, it could be fun! This is a little darker, and maybe a little dirtier. Best to presume spoilers for all of 4a.

    "In the quietness of stone and woods, Emma had found solace and fortitude; in the cathedral of a mouth, something like benediction. All day it echoed - when she stood in front of the ice wall, or helped Elsa with her sister’s bespelled necklace - her body twinged, ached pleasantly; reminded her of time spent with the woman who never stopped surprising her. Regina Mills."

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Don’t let the unfinished status or the length put you off. This is fantastic and stands up quite well just as it is. Gorgeous characterisations in a delightfully smutty study of two flawed human beings finding that their ragged edges match up like the last two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. If these two are already your blorbos, give this a read. You’ll enjoy it. If you’re new to this pairing, understand that this fic is better written than the show.

    Summary

    "At age seventeen, Emma still has only a few belongings. She has a red jacket and a baby blanket and a few good memories she can visit in the dark with her eyes closed. The rest are lessons."

    About Time au

    This is a story about mothers, children, and time travel. Or alternatively, how Emma Swan finds a place to belong.

    This could easily stand alone as a novel without the OUAT background. Great read. Interesting premise well executed.

    Summary

    A series of pivotal moments as Emma learns more and more about the complicated woman she's slowly falling for. Ok, maybe not so slowly.
