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

image

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)

Oh hey. Sorry I’m so late. Thought I’d sent this before (and ignore if I did!) A Little Insurance ‘verse – is the Black Fairy involved in this version in any way?

image

It’s hard to say at this point whether The Black Fairy is involved because we don’t know much about her or what she wants. Then again this is a wish!World AU so I could literally say anything and that would also be fine.

The main question really is why did The Black Fairy show up when she did? Was it purely for Gideon? Or was it because of something else? I rather like my theory that Neverland is part of The Black Fairy’s domain. Time works differently there, and Rumple never sensed that Bae was there – just like Gideon was beyond reach of his powers while in the Dark Realm.

It was said that The Black Fairy took children but why? What did she do with them? Could she perhaps have looking for something in particular – like Pan searched for Henry – and that when the children disappointed they wound up abandoned on Neverland forming the Lost Boys? Who better than her one-time lover to rule over part of her domain? Maybe they even made a deal.

Anyway, none of this speculation is answering your question sorry 🙂

Time runs differently in The Dark Realm/Neverland and it’s easy, even for The Black Fairy, to lose track of how much time has passed in the rest of the world. When Bae made it back from Neverland Rumple did nothing. Whether it was because he was too scared to face his father, or because Belle talked him out of it, or a little of both I’m not sure. However, Rumple did eventually make the trip because of his daughter Nadia.

Nadia has Belle’s wonder of the world, her innocent belief meant that the shadow came for her one night. In the morning she had fantastic stories of her adventure and Rumple was terrified. The shadow had breached the Dark Castle defenses, it had taken his daughter. So filled with rage Rumple went to Neverland, killed Pan, practically leveled the place and took all The Lost Boys back to the Enchanted Forest. Just like he once brought the children home from the ogre war.

Just over a year later The Black Fairy started roaming the realm again. She’d been awakened by the loss of Neverland’s magic – by the loss of Pan and the loss of the easy access to children that he granted her. My headcanon until the show says otherwise is that The Black Fairy is looking for a “dark heir”, a right-hand, to rule at her side and one day take over her domain. Although I suppose fairies are immortal (though not invulnerable), so maybe it’s more just a powerful sidekick she wants. I don’t know. Anyway, she can either sense the magic, or she decides to check in on the Dark One, or she could tell who had wrecked Neverland and went to see why Rumple had done it etc. No matter what she winds up sensing teenage Gideon’s potential and she tries to snatch him – he could be the one.

Unfortunately a teenager who has had some training from Rumple, is far harder to grab than a baby. Not to mention both Gideon and Nadia were instructed to scream for Rumple the second they were in danger, and so Gideon blasts The Black Fairy back once, summons his dad and then they put the smackdown on her together.

I do quite like the theory that The Black Fairy and the Blue Fairy are the same, sort of a Jekyll and Hyde situation, so whether The Black Fairy can be killed or not depends on whether she was the original. I’m thinking that she probably wouldn’t be, so she can’t die if this theory is real. However, she could be captured, locked up in some magic device – maybe even Pandora’s Box – and no matter what she ceases to trouble them anymore.

This is a verse where Rumple and Belle and their family get a happy ending. Aside Bae’s unfortunate early death 🙁 but he married and loved Emma, and had Henry, so I guess that’s something.

Would you like to write an alternative ending for any of your favorite shows/books/etc?

YES! Yes to lots of things but I’ll just pick one for today 🙂

Alias

image

They turned Irina into a power hungry idiot, who knew reaching for the globe thing would mean her death and did it anyway. So she died. Then on a completely different continent, Jack got shot and then blew himself up to kill Sloane (it actually just buried him alive). So he died. Jack and Irina’s relationship was complicated, messy and filled with pain. By rights they should have kept well away from each other but they couldn’t because despite everything they loved one another.

If I could have written an alternative ending I would have had them both live for a start. There would be no such thing as a happy ending for them but to be honest they both operated more in the grey area. So Jack would be quasi-legal and Irina quasi-bad guy and they would snipe at one another, betray one another but always come back and work together. They would both be shown as the smart, capable operatives that they are.

I also wouldn’t have killed Nadia off, Sark would have had a bigger role, Sydney and Vaughn would either have been less whiny or smaller roles. Marshall would be as epic as ever – oooh more Weiss I liked him. So basically I wouldn’t have killed off the cool people and I would have kept them smart, and not had them suddenly become super dumb for the plot.

Supposed to tag 20 people but I’ve tagged a few people recently and I don’t like to be annoying. If you want to do it then consider this a tag from me heh 🙂

Stargate Universe and Ouat for the fandom ask

Once Upon a Time

Favorite Female: Regina. I feel bad saying that because I feel like I should say Belle but I really, really love Regina. Sorry.

Favorite Male: Rumplestiltskin aka Mr Gold, like it’s going to be anyone else 🙂

3 Other Favorite Characters: Belle, Emma (season 1-2 edition) and Neal/Bae.

3 OTP’s: Rumbelle, Swanfire and Brave Warrior.

NoTP: GoldenQueen. I love them as frenemies, but it is just so wrong as romance. Really, so very wrong.

Funniest Character: Hook has his moments and I’m not saying that to be mean. Colin O’Donoghue has excellent comedic timing. I really feel like he’s in his element playing the brash playboy pirate.

Prettiest Character: I really don’t like the word pretty, but most attractive, to be honest I think it has to be a tie because Rumple/Gold obviously but also Regina.

Most Annoying Character: Snow probably. Sorry.

Most Badass Character: Rumple/Gold, when he’s on form, oh wowzer.

Character I’d like as my BFF: Regina except she would make me feel really inferior. Perhaps just as penpals. Maybe Belle would be better, though that could be a little awkward given my admiration for her husband.

Female Character I’d Marry: This is going to be quite predictable – Regina.

Male Character I’d Marry: Again you can probably guess – Rumple/Gold.

Character I hate/dislike/least like: Zelena I think. When she was being out and out wicked, I kinda had a “love to hate” thing going on because she was brilliant to watch. I despised her actions but she did have some very good lines. These days? Not so much. She should have been retired as a villain to be honest, just like Cora was.

You know if they were going to keep a villain around couldn’t we have had a vote? I think Cora would have been fascinating or Pan actually. They both had the sneaky, master plan with dozens of contingencies thing going on, so if the heroes failed to defeat them, then it wouldn’t be as bad as not defeating someone like Zelena who is kinda in your face type villain. I’m getting off topic oops sorry.

SGU is under the cut because of length

*****

Stargate Universe

Favorite Female: Samantha Carter, she was in I don’t know two episodes. That’s cheating? Yeah ok. Alright Lisa Park. She was the female scientist on board and basically wins by default.

Favorite Male: Nicholas Rush! Like you have to ask heh 🙂

3 Other Favorite Characters: Volker, Varro and wow this is hard. I’m going to go with Greer, he never pretended to be something he wasn’t.

3 OTP’s: I don’t think I have one let alone three.

NoTP: Rush and Young. I love Rush and so I search for him sometimes and just no, so very wrong.

Funniest Character: Well Eli tries very hard for this title but I think I’d have to go with Brody.

Prettiest Character: Pretty isn’t exactly the right word but come on Rush is hands down the most attractive on board.

Most Annoying Character: Eli probably. Don’t get me wrong I appreciate all his pop culture references because let’s get real, if we were thrown into that situation we’d be the same. It’s his inconsistent loyalty and general naivety. Although to be honest the same could be said of Chloe. I think they probably tie for the honor.

Most Badass Character: Rush! No seriously. He’s the one that dealt with the Lucian Alliance invasion. He’s the one that saves their asses everytime aliens attack. I mean Greer is the badass with the gun, but Rush is the real hero.

Character I’d like as my BFF: I know I’m getting repetitive but it has to be Rush. Though whether he could put up with me is another matter.

Female Character I’d Marry: None of them seeing as Samantha Carter would be cheating again.

Male Character I’d Marry: Rush, hands down, no contest.

Character I hate/dislike/least like: Young! I loathe him, my hatred for him knows no bounds. Usually I don’t hate any characters because once I understand them, then I can’t hate them. I think Young might be the only character I out and out despise.

House M.D

Favorite Female: Hmm not sure. I confess I haven’t seen the last 3 seasons. I think I might go for Amber. I liked how she didn’t take any crap.

Favorite Male: House. It is his show and I love the sarcasm. I didn’t like it when he took things too far as that meant he stopped being good to watch, and turned into me watching through my fingers cringing. Ultimately though yeah I have to go with him.

3 Other Favorite Characters: Cameron, Stacy and Cuddy.

3 OTP’s: House and Stacy, Wilson and Cameron, Wilson and Amber.

NoTP: House and Cameron, or House and Cuddy. There’s a reason I kinda drifted away from this show. Once Stacy left, and the fun of the ‘Charlies Angels’ picking new interns was over, I really wasn’t invested.

Funniest Character: House. Hugh Laurie kills it – he’s amazing.

Prettiest Character: Cameron (she did go on to play Emma Swan so yeah)

Most Annoying Character: Chase probably. I really wasn’t a fan.

Most Badass Character: I don’t actually think I would use the word ‘badass’ to describe any character on House. Sorry.

Character I’d like as my BFF: Well Wilson’s the obvious choice. If he can put up with House then he can put up with anyone.

Female Character I’d Marry: Cameron probably

Male Character I’d Marry: None of them, they are all far too annoying.

Character I hate/dislike/least like: I don’t know. I was at least mildly annoyed by all of the characters at one point or another. To be honest the ones that I didn’t like something about, I didn’t care enough about them to dislike them.

Marina!Rumbelle, do you want children in the the future?

image

Belle:

Gold:

Belle: We … haven’t really discussed it. I don’t know if Evan wants to do it all over again.

Gold: Me sweetheart? What about what you want?

Belle: Well you have Neal, and Henry is ten and …

Gold: None of that has anything to do with what you want. You’re afraid we don’t want the same thing aren’t you? I like to think that we can always talk …

Belle: We can! I just … I never really thought that much about kids. I only ever wanted them with the right man and before you, I had sort of given up hope on finding him.

Gold: Oh Belle.

Belle: I do want a child Evan but only if that’s what you want. If it’s not then I’m happy just being the two of us. I want you, and what we have, more than some dream family.

Gold: I can think of nothing I’d like more than to have a child with you. I’m not so old that it would be unfair to them. You’ll make a wonderful mother.

Belle: You’re already an amazing father *kisses him* *slaps him lightly on the shoulder* and you’re not old.

Gold: *laughs and kisses her again* if you say so sweetheart.

WIP Meme: stay, leave, run, back

Ooooh I love this meme 🙂

From upcoming untitled Monthly Rumbelling fic

He couldn’t blame her for that, she’d been so kind spending the time she had with
him, and he just hoped that they would be able to stay friends.

Belle shifted, slipping off his lap to snuggle back against his side. “Not really but I’ll
leave if you want.”

Besides it was Belle seeing him naked that he feared, when she saw his scars and his
mangled leg, he hoped that she would run a mile. She deserved so much better
than a broken down single father, who couldn’t even make it through the night
without waking sick and shaky from nightmares.

(Back appeared 18x in this one document, clearly I like that word. I picked one)

After a minute he dared to glance back over. Neal was absolutely enchanted, hanging
on Belle’s every word. Gold’s hand shook as he stirred the dinner.

From upcoming untitled GoldenLace Bonnie and Clyde fic
(Back appeared 9x)

“We were in a bar dearie,” Gold said sarcastically. “Do you really expect me to talk business where I could be so easily overheard.” He gave her a disdainful look. “Get out
and grow up. Come back to me when you have any idea how this game is really played.”

From upcoming WIP – Ripple Effect
“What’s going on?” Young yelled, striding into the gateroom. He caught sight of Belle and moved towards her. “Leave the damn supplies!”

Rush quickly began to run the numbers. The Hammond couldn’t beam them out unless they were on the surface, their best bet would be the Stargate. However, they would have to act quickly, naquadria was notoriously unstable.

Her chestnut colored hair, carefully tied back in a tidy bun, caught his eye first. She gave him a knowing smirk and Rush smiled softly. Belle would never let him hear the end of this.

From upcoming WIP – The Winning Bid (working title)
She could forget about going back for her final year of college, she could forget the future she wanted for herself. It had all turned to dust unless she did something drastic.

From upcoming WIP – Nightwalkers

Idly Belle wondered if Gold knew. She bit her lip, not sure whether to tell him. She
wanted the games to stay as they were until the murderer was caught, and if Gold was furious about a cheating scandal, that might be difficult.

“It was about 3am I think.” Gold shrugged. “Ashley was alive when I left, she was helping clear up the bar. However, I was the first one to actually leave.”

Given the circumstances, it would be easy to get a warrant and Belle kicked herself
for not checking that David had run full financial checks on all of their suspects. Money was a powerful motive.

(Back appears 38x – clearly the motherlode word)

Neal sat back and scowled. Emma raised an unimpressed eyebrow at him and he tried to scowl harder, but his lips twitched, and he smiled without his consent. He wanted to be grumpy, he felt out of sorts, but it was impossible to maintain a bad mood around Emma.

For the crossover ask meme…OUaT and Star Trek (you can choose which series or movie). Crossover OTP, BroTP, frenemies, etc.

Ooooh ok I’m a bad Star Trek fan, I never got on with the older series. I love the new movies, I’m itching for the new series and I had a love/hate relationship with Enterprise. I think I’m going to go with the movies, otherwise I’ll wind up getting snarky about Trip.

A crossover ship I’d dig: Like I said the last time I did this, the problem is so many people are already paired up on Once. Honestly I think I might go for Kirk and early seasons Emma. They have difficult childhoods in common, they both have a saving people thing, they both have a fighting against authority thing. It would be prickly, lots of drinking in hick bars, lots of sassing one another but ultimately they’d both understand the burdens the other faced and step up when the situation called for it.

A crossover BroTP I’d dig: Bones and Regina – can you imagine the levels of sarcasm?

A crossover Frenemies I think would be inevitable: Spock and Rumple. Either they’d work together well, or it would be like oil and water. I think it would depend on what side they were on. I think Spock would appreciate Rumple’s approach (and Rumple would seriously appreciate Spock’s logic) but if they were on opposite sides then it’s like immovable object meet unstoppable force.

A crossover badass duo I think would be inevitable: Chekov and Henry. Chekov was 17 when he was first assigned to Enterprise – a genius. Henry has been battling evil so to speak since he was 10 so he has experience, and an innate understanding of the book.

A crossover animosity I think would be inevitable: Scotty vs magic. I think he would love it, right up until he couldn’t figure out how it worked. He’s an engineer and it would be like waving candy at him and holding it just out of reach. Merlin help Regina’s vault or the pawnshop if Scotty with his detector got let loose on them.
