When his brother goes missing, detective Killian Jones stops at nothing
to find him. He follows a lead to a town called Storybrooke, where he finds an
ally in the local sheriff, Emma Swan. Trying to piece together the evidence
proves harder than they thought. They work overtime, hoping to find Liam alive
and capture those responsible. Their perseverance pays off. They solve the
case, find Liam and lock up everyone involved. They celebrate their success
over dinner, and continue with a nightcap in Emma’s apartment.
“Do you know James?” the woman behind the counter asks her.
Emma frowns. “No, he just – no.”
She shakes her head, and shakes the air of familiarity away from her mind. Her memory is good enough for her to know she never met the man before. And even if she did, so what? She’s only here to make sure Henry is okay.
Summary: Queen Emma of the Underworld enlists the help of a magical healer when her son falls deathly ill. Killian Jones, one of the best healers alive, is Emma’s last hope. But with so many people who need him, he can’t stay down in the Underworld forever. With the help of a few pomegranate seeds, he may not have a choice. Hades and Persephone!AU.

Seed I
They called him Healer of the Sea because the seas seemed to calm their agonized rage when he stepped on the shoreline. With one dip of his hand into the cool waves, he could bring restoration in the form of clear water. Where the man sailed, the ocean saw peace. And perhaps he did heal the ocean of its torments in the form of hurricanes and storms, but the true meaning of his name went beyond its shores.
Those who met him knew him as a healer of people, and soon, those who merely heard of him knew him this way as well. Testimonies arose from across the seas and back of a man whose touch enchanted water with magical properties that could heal any ailment. He was a humble man, yet carried his compassion on strong shoulders and gentle hands.
Not that Emma would know. She’d traveled all this way to this sickly bright land to call upon him, only to find his ship, The Jewel of the Realm, departing from the harbor.
Emma Swan, reluctant goddess of the underworld has accepted her fate as the ruler of Hades, but what she refuses to accept is that Henry’s fate is to be sealed with hers in death. Hoping to find a cure for his sickness, she seeks out a man she’s only heard of in a whisper. A man who can heal anyone, but as we all know, nothing is ever that simple. So strap in for this mournful tale of death and despair, but fear not, for where Killian Jones, ‘Healer of the Sea’ goes, hope follows!
“It’s nice,” she blurts, and bites her lip forcefully to hide her wince. “I mean… not that I didn’t think you were nice before…”
“You thought I was a screaming alcoholic with terrible taste in music and a severe cholesterol problem.” He lifts an eyebrow, one gently festooned with red glitter. “You can say it.”
CS Pirate/Princess AU: When pirate Killian Jones sneaks to the forest to escape the royal guard, he doesn’t expect to run into Princess Emma Swan. A chance run-in quickly becomes a regular meeting, and trepidation gives way to love. When the castle announces a royal ball, Killian knows he has to find a way to dance with his princess, no matter the cost.
Merry Christmas Hollye! I was your CS Secret Santa, i hope you have a lovely holiday ♥ ( @hollyethecurious )
