Oh boy, do I have a treat for yâall (@swankkat and @caprelloidea have already seen it but I think itâs time to share it with everyone else). Hereâs a missing scene from Killianâs POV. Itâs under the cut because itâs slightly spoilery, and you know how I feel about spoiling this story for people. (Falling Slowly)

Candy is Dandy, But Liquor is Quicker / CS + Candy Kisses
Notes: Also inspired by @allons-y-to-hogwarts-713 aesthetic submission where she featured the Willy Wonka quote and made my muse go YAAAASSSS!
Rated T / ~300 words
A âsugar rushâ she called it.
The manic euphoria one gets from ingesting copious amounts of sugar in a short period of time.
Followed soon after by the âcrashâ.
The onset of lethargy, moodiness, and occasional stomach cramps that follows the high of ingesting copious amounts of sugar in a short period of time.
He doesnât mind the rush part. The way it makes her a little bit giddy and giggly. How playful she becomes when the milk dud soaked popcorn finally hits her system, or how the sweet surge from the bear claw (or three) gives her a naughty desire to patrol him rather than the now quiet streets of Stroybrooke.
The problem is that its epithet is actually a bit of a misnomer. âRushâ typically signifying that a thing would happen quickly. Suddenly.
Not so with sugar, he finds. The consumption taking too long of moments to finally hit her blood stream.
Not like with rum.
With rum the desired effect is nearly instantaneous. The way it warms your belly and sends that coursing heat through you after the very first swallow. How it relaxes tensions, dulls distraction, and leaves a lingering spice upon the tongue.
He likes the effects of the rum. Not the âIâve lost all sense to make reasonable choicesâ effect, but the sultry way she licks those errant drops from her lipsâŚas if she doesnât know what sheâs doing kind of effect.
The luxurious and languid way she kisses him before they even make it through their first tumbler, or how her eyes go dark at him over the rim of her glass or bottle when they are out in public or in anotherâs home, holding promise for more enjoyable activities when they finally find themselves alone.
It may be true that candy was dandy, but liquor was quicker.Â
And as long as you partake in moderation, it holds all the same pleasures without the impending crash.

Heartbeat – Killianâs POV
When they had discovered that Emma was approximately eight weeks along, Killian took it upon himself to learn everything he could about the development of the embryo inside of her.  Making a nuisance of himself at the library was the first order of business and one by one he worked his way through the many tomes regarding what happens inside a womanâs body when she is with child.  He was fascinated to learn how the changes inside of Emma were affecting her behavior on the outside on a day to day basis.  As she did with any new situation, his Swan rose to the occasion and he couldnât have been happier when she lowered her walls and allowed herself to lean on him more each week. Â
As weeks nine and ten arrived they settled into a new routine for beginning their days and while it wasnât much, he felt as if he were contributing and sharing her burden.   He made it his job to rise early and help Henry get ready for school and on the days that the babe was causing Swan to feel out of sorts, he arrived with dry toast and ginger ale to help her get the day started.  She always made a point of making it downstairs in time to see Henry off to school, though, and if he was lucky he could get her to eat a healthy morning meal instead of those dry pastries she usually consumed.  She liked to pretend she didnât like the fuss but watching her eat whatever he put in front of her, and seeing the healthy glow on her face started each day off the right way.Â
In the early stages of Emmaâs pregnancy, Killian had been pleasantly surprised when the dwarves had suggested they keep an eye on the savior, and because Killian selfishly was worried about her, he agreed.  He knew Emma knew, just as he knew that she thought it had all been his idea, but since she hadnât complained too loudly, he didnât feel overly guilty when he received daily reports from the many watchdogs that resided in Storybrooke.  In fact, today he had learned that she had been spotted looking in the window of Mother Gooseâs Nursery at a cradle; an activity he hadnât considered necessary quite yet, considering she had just turned eleven weeks. Â
when the beat of my drum (meets the beat of your heart)Â
One-shot in which Ruby takes Emma to a music festival for the first time and her life is forever changed. [This is an oldie but I wanted to repost it for summer. Enjoy!] Â Also available on A03.Â
âCome on, I think the next set starts on the East Lawn,â Ruby calls, grabbing Emmaâs hand and pulling her through the crowd.
Sheâd never been to one of these things before, but apparently this was one of the largest music festivals on the East coast, and her best friend Ruby had bought tickets 8 months ago for the two of them as college graduation gifts.
As far as she could tell, Emma didnât think that there was that much to get excited about. Sleeping in tents in the middle of the summer left much to be desired (god, how she missed air conditioning) and the herds upon herds of sweaty hipsters everywhere were starting to catch her last nerve.
It certainly wasnât all bad, though. Everyone was dressed to the nines in the brightest possible colors (sheâd never seen so many high waisted shorts in her entire life), running around and being with their friends, and not to mention the musicâŚ
She was able to look past all the bad things though (like guys giving her and Ruby double takes everywhere they walked – it probably didnât help that Ruby was wearing next to nothing in the name of âfreedom of expressionâ), because of the music. A lot of her favorite bands were playing that weekend, and she had an all access pass to all of the concerts.
This night in particular, one of her all time favorites, Young the Giant, was playing the headlining show. They had two openers, both of which Emma had never heard of. Theyâd have to sit through at least an hour of random music before the good stuff started.
Luckily, the sun was setting a bit, so the air started to cool off and everyone could breathe just a little bit easier. It was beautiful out there, near the mountains. Out in the distant sky, some stars were starting to peek out through the blue.
All around them, other people were finding their spots, waiting for the concert to start. Some people took the easy route and laid out blankets on the lawn, but Ruby refused.
âEmma, we have to get up there!â She whined.
Emma raised her brow, knowing sheâs going to give in eventually anyway. âRuby, thereâs hundreds of people up there-itâs completely chaotic.â
âFor fucks sake, Emma. Take a chance for once. We made it all the way out here for these concerts, you could at least try. You may just have the experience of a lifetime.â
Emma rolled her eyes and sighed as her hands dropped to her sides. âFine, letâs go.â

regardless of realm…
I set out to write something and it turned into smut, and it got a bit filthy, so well, here you go. Some references to spoilers ahead⌠(2400 words, very M) AO3
Heâs been gone for just a few hours and sheâs already wondering if letting him go was the right choice. Tracing her fingers over the books on Killianâs shelf in his cabin, Emma thinks of what Henry excitedly explained to them, about wanting to explore these other stories and someday find his own.
âSo, do you think there are different versions of you out there in other realms?â
âPardon, love?â
âCaptain Hook, heâs a fairy tale character, so there could be other versions of you, you know?â
Looking up from his task of sharpening his hook, Killian lifts his eyebrow and flashes a dashing smile.
âIâd like to think Iâm one of a kind, SwanâŚâ
Emma laughs, her boots shuffling across the wood as she crosses to him, her hands coming to rest on his lapels as she nudges her hips between his spread legs. He leans further back into his desk to accommodate her, the mischievous twinkle in his eye sparking with immediate heat at her closeness.
âIâm serious. If Henryâs right and there are other realms with the same characters and similar stories, there could be many different Captain Hooks out there.â
âI suppose itâs possible, love. Even if we look at our history and the adventures weâve had, youâve met quite a few versions of me so far. Hell, there was even a time you had the pleasure of being with two of me at once.â
The animated eyebrow wiggle he gives her at that memory has her playfully flicking his earlobe, but she still leans in to give him a quick kiss.
âAh, a memory you obviously enjoy, I seeâŚâ Killian mumbles against her lips, his head moving forward to chase her mouth as she pulls away with a smile.

Prompt: descriptive uncircumcised hand/blow job from Emma to Killian? The way you had it in Ecstacy was hot as fuck, even if it was just a little sentence!! I don’t know why, but I loved it so much and it was a huge turn on!!: “like that⌠pull the skin up over the⌠Oh God, EmmaâŚâ
theeeeeeeee oldest prompt still alive/uneaten in my askbox, letâs suck some diiiiiiiiiicks
hiatus between 4a and 4b
There are a lot of questions Emma still feels are too weird to ask and keeps her mouth shut about â how did people get ringlets in the Enchanted Forest? Did corsets ever get more comfortable or were there some spleen issues her mom needed to see a doctor about? Was virginity as overrated there as it was here? How did anyone survive before tampons? Or Advil? How many expensive foreign vases given as gifts from ambassadors would she have been allowed to break in a princessy tantrum? Can Granny teach her how to shoot that crossbow sometime?
âHey, did you know that yours is the second uncut dick Iâve ever seen?â is one she never expected to think up, and she definitely doesnât voice that aloud.
(Really, thinking about her ex in this scenario shouldnât happen at all, but she does have him to thank for knowing what to do in this scenario.)
As irritating as not having her own place is, half the fun of these stolen moments in Killianâs rented room is seeing how far they can go before Granny gives them dirty looks at breakfast the next morning. An inn run by wolves is not an inn that allows for very much privacy, but Emmaâs determined not to let that stop her from seeing if after talking the talk Killian can walk the walk.
(Oh, he definitely can walk the walk. Some mornings Emma isnât sure she can walk the walk of shame back to the loft.)
Not sure if you’re still taking prompts, but if you are, how about ‘finding the other wearing their clothes’?
The last thing he thought heâd be doing on a Tuesday evening when the sky opened up and let out a monster of a thunderstorm, was leaving the house and getting caught in the rain. And yet, here he is, wringing water out of his clothes in the bathroom sink to get them just dry enough that they wonât leave trails when he takes them to the laundry room downstairs.
He heaves out a heavy sigh but he canât seem to get mad. Because every time he tries, he thinks of Emma Swan knocking on his door and pulling him down several flights of stairs to soak him to his toes. His best friend is a thunderstorm in herself.
Thereâs a knock at the door, and he hums in reply.
âI made apology coffee,â Emma calls out. He laughs, as though she has anything to apologise for. She could lead him anywhere and heâd follow willingly, as head over heels he is about her.
âIâll be right there, love.â
It takes him a few seconds to gather his clothes in the basket at the corner, to push his fingers through his hair several times and look in the mirror, giving himself a silent pep talk. Itâs mostly new, the discovery of the severity of his feelings for Emma. Heâs always known he was drawn to her, but thereâs something else there, too â a need to never be separated, a sensation of care that extends well beyond the natural, and a word that starts with L that he doesnât think he should ever utter out loud in her presence. Not now anyway. Someday, maybe.
He hears her humming from the kitchen and smiles to himself.
âApology coffee and a musical performance? Arenât I just the luckiest man in the world.â Itâs easy for him to slip into a tone of levity, even easier when she teases him right back.
âPlease,â she scoffs. âYouâre going to have to make me coffee if you want to hear me sing.â
âI make you coffee every single weekend,â he replies, throwing in a pout for good measure.
Emma shrugs, her smirk taking away from her excuse of an apology. She turns around to pick up the mugs from the counter and thatâs when he notices it, the deep red fabric that bunches around her arms where sheâs pushes the too long sleeves to her elbows. It hangs loosely on her frame, the threads fraying, the small tear in the hem glaring at him in recognition.
He hasnât seen this sweatshirt in years, had forgotten about it completely, in fact. And here it is, worn by the woman he would never, in his existence, want to forget.
She places the mugs on the table and hesitates when he stays frozen in place. Heâs staring, he knows, but he canât help it.
âI forgot to bring an extra sweater, I thought it would be okay if I borrowed one?â she explains, though it comes out more like a question. He opens his mouth but doesnât get a word out. Emmaâs fingers run along the hem, fidgeting. âIâll just go put it back in your drawer, Iâll be fine in my shirt.â
He steps in front of her when she tries to pass by him, and shakes his head.
âNo, no, I justâ my brother gave me that sweatshirt. I simply havenât seen it in a while, thatâs all.â
âShit, sorry, I shouldâ,â she moves towards his room but he grabs her by the elbow and pulls her back in place.
âSwan, itâs perfectly fine. It even suits you,â he grins. And gods, does it ever. It brings out the gold of her hair and matches the red on her cheeks thatâs always present during colder months. And itâs something else, to see her wrapped up in clothing thatâs his. Heâs pathetic in his longing for domesticity, for wanting it with Emma and Emma only. Unbidden, he imagines her in nothing but his sweatshirt, greeting him on a morning after with intimacy he should not be letting creep into his mind when sheâs standing right in front of him.
He coughs, trying to cover it up.
She eyes him warily. âAre you sure?â He knows what sheâs asking, Are you sure you want to trust me with this? As though she and Liam arenât on the same standing in his mind, as though she isnât deserving of being compared to his late brother. How she doesnât see his heart beat straight out of his chest when sheâs near, heâll never know.
He gently runs a hand up and down her arm, and she visibly deflates at the gesture. Heâs so close to her that he can count the creases on her forehead, knows they wonât leave her until the unnecessary guilt subsides.
âPositive,â he reassures.
And perhaps if he was privy to her thought process, he would expect her reaching up on her tiptoes and places a soft kiss on his cheek. Instead, he stands there like a fool, stock still, as it happens.
âThank you,â she practically whispers. She squeezes his hand once before stepping back. âYour coffeeâs getting cold.â
He watches her walk to the table, damp curls hanging down her back, at home in a place that isnât hers. Engulfed in an article of clothing that he associates with warmth and comfort. Completely and irrevocably making his heart pound. He lets out a gust of a breath. A thunderstorm in herself, indeed.
Defending the Crown (1/1)
Captain Swan, Rated E, ~3000 words.
My fluff offensive continues. This started as just a bunch of dirty lady banter
that amused me (because do I have a weakness for writing women oversharing with each other? I do), and then it turned into dirty sex. Oops. For the purposes of this fic, I just pretended all the side characters I wanted are still in Storybrooke. Set several months after the final battle.
It was the third margarita that made Emma open her big mouth. That and the fact that her mother, usually present at a girlsâ night such as this one, was absent.Â
âYou need to advocate for your own pleasure,â Zelena was telling Aurora as Emma came back into the room with her drink. âIf heâs not doing what you need him to do to get you off, then you tell him what he needs to do.âÂ
Emmaâs gaze met Reginaâs and the two of them had a silent conversation through strategically widened eyes about how these nights always devolved into sex talk and oversharing.Â
âExactly,â Ashley agreed. âOr show him.âÂ
Aurora looked slightly scandalized at that. âShow him?âÂ
