Summary: Set in England in the early 1800s, this story is inspired by Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility. Emma and Mary Margaret Blanchard are the lovely and beloved daughters of Leopold and Eva Blanchard. When unexpected tragedy strikes, orphaning them, the young sisters find themselves dependent on their half brother, Robin, and reluctant hostess of a sister-in-law, Regina. A burgeoning romance between Mary Margaret and Regina’s stepbrother, David Spencer, is interrupted when the sisters decide to take up the offer of a distant cousin, Ingrid White, to make their home with her. There, the sisters meet a host of new acquaintances including the enigmatic landowner Captain Killian Jones and young charmer Neal Cassidy. The sisters hope to find their Happy Endings while navigating polite society on the fringes of genteel poverty.
A/N: I can’t thank my betas @thegladelf and @mryddinwilt enough for all the time and effort they put into the fic. They helped make the story fifty times better than it was. Huge shout-out to @onceuponawesteros for the hours we spent bouncing ideas on chat when I first planned out this fic more than two years ago. Thank you, @emmaswanchoosesyou for digitally holding my hand whenever I felt discouraged about completing the story! @captainswanandclintasha created the lovely banner and a number of gorgeous pic-sets and art for the story. Thank you for your patience thorough all the edits I made to the fic! Last but not least, a big shout-out to the Big Bang mods who have done an excellent job organizing and running this event and to the Discord chat crew for all the writing sprints and writing help. Fair warning: This fic is not very flattering to Regina or Neal.
And now, to the story…

A Dream and a Dance: Chapter 1
It was a pleasant English July afternoon. Not a cloud was in sight. A gentle breeze ruffled the leaves on green trees and caused delicate ripples to form on the surface of the ornamental pond at Locksley, the family estate of the Blanchard family. The young people staying at the house were taking full advantage of the mild weather and were out of doors. Emma Blanchard, one of the aforementioned young inhabitants, was reading a novel seated in the shade of an elm tree, lazily scratching the ear of a terrier that was resting beside her. As she turned a page, she covertly observed her sister, Mary Margaret, and her companion, David Spencer, who were shooting arrows at a target a little further away on the lawn.
Thwack!
The arrow flew straight and true, hitting the bullseye.
“Well done, Miss Blanchard!” said David, throwing Mary Margaret an appreciative look.
A tiny smile of amusement bubbled up on Emma’s face on seeing the obvious admiration on David’s countenance. The sparkling eyes that accompanied Mary Margaret’s answering smile caused Emma to temporarily forget the discomfiture of her and her sister’s present living situation.
Buckle up people. aloha-4-ever is taking Emma and Mary Margaret on quite an adventure, both emotionally and physically and we’re going with them! With a Jane Austen style, Aloha has managed to make this story her own. And we’re sensing some Pride from Emma and quite a bit of Prejudice from Regina!
HI CSers! Uh, long time no see. Here’s my very very humble but heartfelt contribution for today’s posting date, October 14th’s @cscocktoberfest !
A very belated piece of illustration inspired by @optomisticgirl ’s fic Take Me To Church, chapter 9 where the good man finally snaps. Also a long overdue apology to @phiralovesloki. I hope everyone enjoys it.
Summary: After many years, rumors swirl that the Evil Queen is back and filled with more vengeance than ever. But instead of setting her sights on Snow White she goes for the thing Snow loves most, her beloved daughter Emma. For her own safety, Emma is to be transported to safety on an unassuming merchant ship, where she meets two indentured servants hoping for a way to find their freedom.
A/N: Here she is! My @captainswanbigbang fic, I have been working on this fic for three years and I would not have been able to finish had it not been for CSBB. My two betas @justanotherwannabeclassic and @eloquentlyenchanted where both a godsend and this fic would not be nearly as good as I hope it is if it wasn’t for their hard work. I’m truly so grateful for you both. I also want to give a shout out to my artist @princesse-swan for going above and beyond with my chapter headers, that’s right I said headers because this wonderful person made multiple chapter headers for me and I cannot wait for you all to see them!
I would also like to note that this work features Regina in full on Evil Queen mode and does not shy away from it. This fic also does include some battle scenes, mentions of sex, sexual assault, and minor character death.

“How are you feeling Daddy?” Regina sat at her father’s bedside, sponging his sweaty forehead.
“Not well,” he coughed.
“Don’t talk like that, you’re going to get better.” She picked up the bowl of soup on his nightstand. “I’ll make sure of it.”
“Regina, I am an old man-”
“No, you are all I have in this world. What would I do without you?” she gripped her father’s hand. “I’m not strong enough.”
“You’re stronger than you know Regina, look at you. You’ve set aside your hatred of Snow White for all these years, I cannot tell you how proud you have made me.” He coughed into a handkerchief. Regina helped him to sit up, rubbing him on the back, her eyes fell onto the bloodstained handkerchief.
“Daddy how long has this been going on?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Henry tried to hide the handkerchief.
“I’m talking about the bloody handkerchief, how long?”
“A few months,” he murmured before coughing again.
“Why didn’t you tell me? I could have healed you, I would have found a way, you know it.” Regina pleaded.
“Regina I am old, I have lived a long life. And watching you grow up has been the highlight of it.”
“Excluding the evil parts, I’m assuming,” Regina muttered.
“No, including them. You lost your way, but you found your way back when you refused to cast that curse. You never did tell me why,”
“Because I couldn’t live without you,” she said as two large tears fell from her eyes. “That would have been the price I had to pay.”
His work was the stuff of legend. It was whispered on the highest parlors of society, the story and the craft of the man that was taking the town by storm. His name remained a mystery while his trade was the name he was known for: The CockMaster.
Here is my first contribution to @cscocktoberfest. Captain Red Swan is one of my favorite groupings and I just had to write a story for them when I was thinking of what to create for this event.
There is a very NSFW pic set below the cut. Consider yourself warned.
Many thanks to @theonceoverthinker and @nerdyhuntress for being my beta readers and helping me make this filthy piece of smut into a more grammatically correct and readable filthy piece of smut.

Summary: Discovering you have magic in a world where it doesn’t exist is scary enough. Having yourself exposed as some kind of magical being because onion rings are falling from the sky might be even worse.
Happy Halloween (almost) everybody! I’ve never been one for things that go bump in the night and stories that have me hiding under the blankets shaking in my boots, but I am one for some Halloween fun and some Halloween puns. So I hope you enjoy this magical little tale that was so very fun to write. Also, I’ve really got to stop spamming you guys with words on the weekends, but that seems to be when I get most things out 😀
The Harry Potter stories have been banned from hundreds of libraries across the world for various reasons, most commonly because people believe that if impressionable children read these stories, they’ll believe in witchcraft. It’s a funny thing, though. Since when did believing in something make it come true?
Emma Swan always believed that she’d be adopted. She never was.
Emma Swan always believed that she’d find a family. She never did.
Emma Swan always believed that she’d find a place where she belonged. She didn’t.
Hello my lovelies! I’m back! This is my submission for the CS Cocktoberfest! I’m so excited for a whole 30 days of smut! And what better way to end the first week than some Neverland smut!
This one shot is not for the faint hearted so be warned!
Emma keeps having sex dreams about a certain pirate. They both sense the tension, but how does she react when he confronts her about the awkwardness between the two of them?
Wanna read more Neverland one shots? Here! and Here!
Her body was on fire. Every atom, every cell, and every nerve was pushed to its maximum pleasure. His beard tickled her neck in the most perfect way as he sucked her pulse point in rhythm with his thrusts.
“Harder,” She moaned against his lips. He took every command with great pleasure and heeded every request.
Emma could feel herself getting closer, faster than she ever had with any partner. She chased that feeling, hooking her legs around his toned waist welcoming him deeper into her core.
“Killian don’t stop!”
Emma’s eyes shot open only to see the dark material of her tent and her hand between her legs. Fuck, it was a dream.
Ever since she kissed that stupid pirate all she ever thought about was him. Which was stupid because all that ever happened was one kiss. And she shouldn’t even be thinking about him! She’s here to find her son! But those gorgeous blue eyes and that rugged smile paired with the irresistible scent of sandalwood and rum drove her crazy. This was the second night in a row that she had an unforgettable sex dream about him. And it was messing with her head! It was so hard to look at him at breakfast thinking “I just had a dream where you fucked me for two hours straight.” Her thoughts were consuming her. She couldn’t think about anything else but the earth-shattering sex that they had in her mind. If the sex was that good in her dreams how amazing would sex with him actually be?
It’s time for the 2018 @captainswanbigbang and the whole crew has turned out in @lenfaz’s OUAT/Ocean’s Eleven crossover fic: Sea Squad. She’s done an amazing job taking a classic movie and turning it into a heartwarming family drama.
Killian will have a hard choice as he works with his brother and his team. Does he choose his family and the money, or the woman he’s been dreaming of?
