I need a hysterical laughter gif because I’ve reached the part of my plan where it says they have “witty conversation” and yeah that’s not happening. I don’t believe in ‘writing what you know’ but there is definitely a few things that if the author sucks at them, then they can’t write them. Witty conversation and arguments are just something I can’t do.

So time jump ahoy, with Gold reflecting on the nice “witty conversation” that they’ve had … oh well it’s leading to sex in his office so I doubt anyone will care right? /cringes

A Little Insurance!Stiltskin family – Was Gideon enthusiastic about getting a sibling?

image

Rumplestiltskin: *closes his eyes with a pained look* enthusiastic isn’t exactly the word that comes to mind. Gideon was nine, old enough to start having festering secrets.

Belle: *teases* He gets the brooding from you.

Rumplestiltskin: I’d made sure that he knew all about Bae and I’d never …

Belle: *lays a gentle hand on his arm* Gideon felt like he was replacement, like he was second best. Bae wasn’t around to compete with but another child … *shakes her head* it was a difficult couple of months but we talked a lot.

Rumplestiltskin: *nods* by the time Nadia was born Gideon wanted to be a good big brother and he is, Nadia adores him.

You do realize that now I want a fic about fake!Belle’s second pregnancy, right? Pweeeeeeease?

I have to be honest I’m really not feeling this idea right now. It’s the kind of idea that I put on my list. Then if I get another prompt that works perfectly with it, then I’ll use it and write both because it’ll have the twist/hook/whatever it’s called, that means I have to write it.

Right now, I sort of feel like it’s a nice idea but I’m not attached to it, if that makes sense? So for the time being I’m going to say no, but I’ll also say never say never because I might write something on these lines one day. I just don’t have the spark to do it at the moment. Thank you though very much for your nice comments. I really do appreciate it 🙂

Once Upon a Lifetime Belle: So did Gold ever find out about your stories? ;)

Belle: *blushes* writing is important to me so if things went well, then I’m sure it would come up eventually. I would be very careful about what I showed him. I would die of embarrassment if he ever learned of my more … erotic stories.

(OOC I am supposed to be writing a sequel for this. Honestly where does the time go? This is going to be a plot point so I don’t want to spoil it too much as I haven’t written it yet and I’m not entirely sure how it’s going to go down. Good question! heh)

Love this! I’m such a sucker for Lachelle. Hope you write more 🙂 x

Thank you so much! I’m definitely planning on writing more. I’ve just not been having a very good month and my writing has really suffered. I had hoped to have updated this several times and completed it by the end of the month, but it’ll be the end of April now probably. It will definitely happen! I’m not one to leave things unfinished, don’t worry 🙂

Memoria…

One day Belle wakes up in a remote town, which is accessible only by boat. She doesn’t remember anything, not even her name. She only guesses she’s called Belle because of the band around her wrist. The still water of the fjord terrifies her, and she has nightmares of drowning. The cabin where she lives is paid for, everything she wants is always paid for, but nobody knows who she is, how she got there or who is paying the bills.

Belle wants to learn who she is, and what happened to her, but leaving the small town would mean travelling on the water. It would also mean facing the complete unknown, as everything beyond the shores of the town is a mystery. Nobody ever comes to town, the only boats they get are for resupply or locals travelling to and from the mainland. Then one day a stranger arrives, a stranger who calls her name in a wrecked tone and holds her with fierce desperation.

Urk new promo shots for Agents of Shield just came out. I was tempted for half a second to change my icon but that feels disloyal. Once is my only actual fandom, and The Gold Family is especially important right now, so I won’t.

But yikes Fitz and Simmons do look good.

I’m about ten episodes behind due to living in the UK but I’ve spoiled myself just a little bit and *incoherent screaming* I can’t wait!

I forgot to put this in my review. I’ve seen a few posts floating around saying that Bae using the dagger against Rumple is a retcon, because Rumple told August that Bae would never control him. I don’t believe it’s a retcon for one simple reason.

Rose-tinted glasses.

Rumple had a couple of hundred years with just the memory of Bae, and how he felt that he’d let his son down – how he’d failed him. I mean Rumple already had Bae as the center of his universe – “without him I’d truly be dust” – and he thought that Bae made him stronger, was the best part of him etc. So I’m sure after two hundred years, in Rumple’s mind Bae was the most perfect son ever who could never do anything wrong.

The sheer depth of Rumple’s self-loathing would probably make him twist everything so that Bae was right. In Rumple’s mind everything would be his fault, never Bae’s. So while he might remember what Bae did, Rumple would put it down to circumstance, it never happened again, it was just a one-time thing, and it was a mistake, and Bae doesn’t even remember so it’s like it never happened. Rumple would never want to remind Bae of something he’s trying to protect him from.

So yeah in my opinion it wasn’t a retcon.

The hero they deserve

6.13 Ill-Boding Patterns is going to be up there in the hall of fame of top episodes. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed an episode quite as much as this since season two. It was amazing. Finally Rumple in all his glory being shown on screen. Anyway, usual drill, spoilers under the cut as I go on a lot about everything that happened.

I need a gifset of Rumple striding up to Gideon, turning to the Blue Fairy and taking care of business like I need air.

“I’m not here to stop you. I’m here to do it for you. I won’t let you touch the darkness” – essentially I will do whatever nasty stuff needs to happen so that you don’t have to – I will be the villain to protect you.

This is the Rumple I knew, finally on screen in all his glory.

I also need one with Rumple giving Bae memory potion and letting his son hate him, taking all the judgement on himself just to spare Bae the unpleasant reality. Think about what Rumple could have had. Bae could have understood him but he cared more about what was right for Bae, than what he wanted.

Honestly I don’t think I’ve loved an episode this much since season two.
