Summary
Princess Emma flees her own betrothal ceremony rather than marry a woman she's never seen — the Evil Queen, feared across two kingdoms and never once painted, sketched, or glimpsed beyond her own court. She runs straight into a storm, and straight into the arms of a stranger who carries her out of it.
What Emma doesn't know is that the woman in the woods and the queen she's fleeing are one and the same — and Regina has no intention of telling her the truth until it's already too late to matter.
A story about the games people play to avoid being known, the storms that find you anyway, and what it costs to choose honesty after you've already chosen the lie.

Summary
The day after her coronation as the Good Queen of the United Realms, Regina Mills should finally have everything she's ever wanted. Instead, three strangers walk into her council chamber — and one of them looks disturbingly like her.
Morgan is twenty-five, dangerously magical, and furious. She's also, as far as anyone in Storybrooke knows, a total stranger — until the truth she's been carrying starts breaking loose in public, one devastating piece at a time.
Emma has known for a year exactly whose daughter she's raising. She just never found the courage to say so. Now the family she was too afraid to build the first time gets one more chance — if any of them survive finding out how badly they already failed each other, in a future none of them are supposed to remember.

Summary
Robert Matthews had a good life. He had a wonderful wife, a promising career, a fast car and an apartment that had a pretty decent view. Overall, he would say that he had done quite well for himself, especially for thirty three. Only God knew what future held for him, but for the first time Robert had the distinct feeling that it was gonna be good.
That is until his wife's long lost son knocked on his door, dragging him into the narrative of a seemingly unremarkable town in Maine.

Summary
After the final battle, Emma Swan has everything she once thought she wanted—her son, her parents, a fragile truce with Regina. But peace feels hollow, her life a performance. The ache she's buried grows unbearable—a feeling that her story ended somewhere before she got to live it.
When a cosmic event and a brass compass sends her back to Storybrooke before the curse broke, Emma finds herself in her own past with future memories intact. As Sheriff again, she navigates familiar faces who don't recognize the changes in her, especially Regina, who grows increasingly suspicious of Emma's altered behavior and inexplicable knowledge.
The question isn't "How do I get back?" but "What was I missing?" As Emma begins to see Regina through different eyes—not as the antagonist she once feared, but as the woman she might have always loved—she walks a dangerous line between preserving the timeline and following her heart.But with Regina's suspicions mounting and Gold's cryptic interest in her situation, Emma must decide: protect the future she knows, or risk everything for a chance to rewrite their story?
Time travel's a bitch. So is falling in love all over again. SQ [ACTIVE WIP 2x week updates]

Summary
“I’m here because... I think my kid is having some kind of delusional breakdown because he can’t cope with the fact that ... Mayor Mills and I split up.”
Dr. Hopper pushes his glasses up his nose in a measured movement. “What makes you think that?”
“Well, among other things, he thinks his mother is about to cut Mary Margaret Blanchard’s heart out of her chest, before pulverizing it and sending her into a coma that only her true love can rescue her from.”
[AU; here, 'fairy tale land' is merely a product of Henry's imagination during a difficult time.]

Summary
When Emma Swan was 18, it wasn't the best time to raise a baby. She was in juvie, the best foster mother she ever had died suddenly, and that jerk Neal let her take the fall for their mistake. So the best thing she could do was let baby Swan be put up for adoption.
Ten years later, after a semi-decent career as a bail bondsperson, Emma is looking for clues to make sure that letting baby Swan go was the right decision. There isn't much she can find out (legally) because it was a closed adoption, but the leads brought her to a small town hidden in Maine, where she got a job as a deputy sheriff.
Regina is the fifth generation embalming in the basement of Mills & Sons, a family funeral home operating for over 80 years. Her funerals are orderly, quiet, and families usually have no complaints about her work, to which she dedicates herself with a professional passion. But it wasn't always this way. There are days in Director Mills's past that left a deep and permanent mark. Her greatest joy: little Henry, the precious baby boy she adopted when he was three months old.
An administrative error that brought Deputy Swan to the foyer of the town's only funeral home could change these two women's lives forever.
