Hellooo, @csficrecmonday is the best idea ever and also so freaking hard so I’ve decided to use a theme every Monday to make my life easier. And anyone who knows me and what I love won’t be surprised by my first pick.
Acknowledging Killian Jones’s pain.
Lingering by @distant-rose - Listen, listen. This fic is everything a canon CS smut fic should be, ok? It is also one of the most beautiful things I have read this year. I was going to reblog it again over the weekend just because I can’t stop thinking about it. But then this seems even better because I really need to recommend it to anyone who might still not have read it!
The Past and All It’s Scars by @laschatzi - So Sandra writes the best fix-it fics the fandom has ever been blessed with but this one - this one is something else. I needed this fic so much. I cried through it and loved every word. Hell, I cried literal tears right now as I re-read it and, guys, you should go cry as well, it’s so worth it.
On The Ravages of Aging by @delightfully-difficult-pirate - Another bit of canon where Killian didn’t get the treatment he deserved and a fic that makes it all better and fills my heart!
Still Got It by @spartanguard - Yes, I am spiraling down the older!Killian hole again and rec-ing all my fav fics in this trope again - try to stop me! This is so beautiful and loving and I shall reread it and rec it for the rest of my fandom days.
Scars that Linger by @winterbythesea - All the possibilities of Camelot, all the possibilities of Killian Jones’s deep heart and insecurities. Bless Svenja for exploring.
That’s for this week ‘cause I just got sucked into re-reading fics and Monday is gonna be over before I post :D Please, feel free to add your favs or your own fics that fit this theme - I’d LOVE to (re)read them!
Happy New Year everyone! To celebrate I made a rec list with complete fics that deseve all your love and comments! Happy reading!
If you are intrested you can find my other lists here.
To Play the Game (and win your heart), @hookedonapirate
Some people would call it a job, but to Emma and her sister, Milah, it’s a game of the heart. Play by the rules and you’ll never get hurt.Whatever you call swindling wealthy men out of their money, this con-artist duo has it down to a tee. Milah sets up an available, rich man and gets him to marry her. Emma seduces and lures the husband into having an affair so he’ll get caught in the act. He then loses his money in the ensuing divorce.The sisters wear a coat of armor around their hearts to keep them intact, but when they set their sights on their next mark, professional golfer Killian “Hook” Jones, Emma never imagined how hard the game could be and how easily her heart could be stolen—especially when she switches roles with Milah and becomes the one exchanging vows with the gorgeous multi-millionaire.
Finding The Altar, @profdanglaisstuff
The only person Killian Jones loves more than his best mate David Nolan is David's sister Emma Swan. He knows he can never act on his feelings... but what happens when she acts on hers?
On the Two, @lifeinahole27
He’s one or two solid days of drinking away from needing to check into AA, and she’s one performance interview away from being able to move closer to home. Their paths were unlikely to cross until they end up in the same place and find a way to help each other out, even if they don’t realize it. How and why they meet and intertwine is against the odds, and definitely against the rules.
Single Riders Won’t Stay Single, @let-it-raines
Emma Swan gets in the "single riders" line for a rollercoaster only to be paired with a handsome stranger for what turns out to be the ride of her life.
Alii dimidium Lunam (The Other Half of the Moon), @artistic-writer
Mongrel Killian Jones, packless and alone, finds Emma by chance in a bar, but she neglects to mention she is running away from her pack responsibilities...responsibilities that her strict father and alpha, David Nolan, expects of his only child and heir to the Misthaven pack. None of which include falling in love with a mongrel. Loosely based Lady and the Tramp AU.
Beastly, @xemmaloveskillianx
Meet Killian Jones. Attractive. Wealthy. Arrogant. He has it all… until he becomes aggressively unattractive outside as he is on the inside. Cursed to find someone that can see him better than he can see himself, he hides away, because who could ever learn to love a beast?
The Crucible Curse, @kymbersmith-90
A chance encounter on the morning of her first day at work results in Emma meeting a mysterious, heavily tattooed, pretty-eyed Irish man. But there are some secrets he's not yet willing to share with her.
Hook-Echo, @initiala
They're in a rut. That's what Deputy Emma Swan tells herself over and over again as her boyfriend, Killian Jones, grows more and more distant, and more frustrated, due to complications with his dissertation research on tornado formation. But storm season's more than halfway over and this dry spell is doing nothing to make things easier for him--or their relationship. Will everything blow over, or is there a greater storm on the horizon?
Holding On to Pieces of Us, @ilovemesomekillianjones
One year after the disappearance of the love of her life, Emma Swan is struggling. She’s losing hope, consciousness, and she might be losing her mind. After receiving life altering news, Emma will be faced with more than one difficult decision. Her choices seem bleak, until a new choice is offered, one she couldn’t have fathomed even in the crazy hallucinations she’s been having. Will she embark on a future that’s different than the one that was ripped from her just one short year ago?
The Gift Receipt, @welllpthisishappening
It genuinely makes sense in her head.
After all, Mary Margaret is being Mary Margaret and Emma just needs five seconds to herself and for her friends to get off her back and saying she can’t talk to Killian Jones because she and Killian Jones once went on a very bad date is the perfect excuse. It’s also not true, but whatever. It works.
Until Emma needs to bring someone home for Christmas. To get the entire town off her back. So, she comes up with another plan and another lie and pretending to get back together with a guy she was never actually with will make their inevitable break-up incredibly easy. It makes sense. Seriously.
That is, of course, until Killian agrees and there’s far too much pie and radio hits of the 70s and opinions on animated Christmas classics. It gets a little more complicated after that.
The Princess of White Chapel, @katie-dub
Dr Killian Jones is having a terrible day. He’s got a mission, he’s got a time machine, he’s got … drunk. What could possibly go wrong?
The Dancing Thief, @trueloveseyeroll
Pretending to be a noblewoman might be the dumbest thing Emma has ever agreed to do. And she’s not sure if meeting Lord Killian Jones made the whole thing better or worse. (Better. Definitely better.)
Help a friend? Looking for new CS fics to drown myself into. Can anyone recommend some 2016 onward multi chapter fics. I say 2016 -> because I think I've read most of the dense multi chapters before that. But if you think it's worth a reread, comment/reply! Thanks all!
Ok, ok, this is the most wonderful shit ever and I’ve been tagged in beautiful posts and sent beyond sweet messages and I sooo wanna participate but I’m on holiday and I’ve been busy as hell recently and feel like I’m so behind with the fanfic reading. Buuuuut I can’t let this day go unmarked so this is gonna be a complete random selection of what popped into my mind and most of it is gonna be pretty old and I’m so so sorry that I can’t take the time to put each CS writer on this list cuz you fucking deserve it, you most precious beans. Love you all!! Now have a messy list of pretty old fic, hope you find some gem you missed!
The last fic I read: Light of All Lights by @ripplestitchskein
I finished this last night around 2am because, man, could not stop reading. This is so fucking good. I don’t even have the words to express it, seriously. I freely admit that I rarely invest in 100k+ fics and gods, I’m so glad I did in this one. It is so worth it - the characterization, the emotions, the connection, the love. This is everything and so much more than I expected when I giddily sat down to see how damn delicious DarkSwan/DeckhandJones can be. Turns out - very.
The last author I binged: @lifeinahole27
Again, I’m not a time investor (I still have a couple of longer fics by this brilliant one) but this was so addicting! Once I started going through her fic list - I could not stop. There is a sense of admiration and love you can achieve for a writer and their work only when you see how much of it they have gifted you and how damn good it all is.
The one I’ve been meaning to read forever: @spartanguard‘s A Tall Tail series. OMG. I’ve been looking at all the gorgeous art and bookmarking every single story for ages! It’s that one treat that I know will be so good and I feel like I need to have a whole weekend with the most perfect weather and food set just for it. Reading this series is the present I need to make to myself ASAP!
The hottest shit ever: to the surprise of no one that would be @this-too-too-sullied-flesh and everything that comes from under her magical hands. Honestly, the sheer quantity and quality of the most delicious and emotional CS fic you can find on her blog is staggering. (Theoretically and A Hard Man is Good to Find are particular favourites)
The most beautiful and heartwrenching: @acrobat-elle‘s Make a Wish is everything I wanted after we got old!Hook. I do not know how to express the pure emotion in this fic. I was sobbing, literally sobbing while reading this. It is the mark of a true artist. (also I simply cannot mention Elle without reminding everyone that one of her first CS fanfics Pay It Forward will own my ass until the day I turn to dust)
The softest: Listen, if you ever feel down, all you have to do is go to @captainstudmuffin‘s blog. For one, Liz is a freaking angel. For another, her fics are pure gold. And that never applies more than when she is writing about the golden days of autumn. Just go ahead and save this one for Halloween from now and also basically read everything she has ever written.
The best guilty pleasure: Basically I stalk @killian-whump and @sherlockianwhovian‘s blogs every night. Every freaking night I go digging through their tags, uncovering more and more treasure. And if you like your Killian deliciously hurt but also taken care of I cannot make you a better gift than sending you their way.
The best fix-it fics: @laschatzi makes my dreams come true!! It’s just what she does. She is the absolute freaking best at giving Killian Jones what he deserves (the world, he deserves the world, you all). You should just go to her fic tag and read everything but particular favs of mine are Trying Something New and The Past and All Its Scars - the world is a better place for having those fanfics in it.
The forever fic: My memory is shit. I love fics with my entire being and then completely forget the title or where I found them and ugh, I’m the worst. But @weezlywrites‘s a one time thing and other untruths is my forever love. It is the first fic I always think of when making a rec list, nominating fics or anything CS fanfic related. It is the ultimate love of my fanfic life. I’m pretty sure that so is everything else written by this brilliant human.
I cannot express how much I want to go on and list every piece of absolute gold fic I’ve read but this what I gotta leave you with for now. Thank you, thank you, thank you to every writer in this fandom. You deserve all the love and respect!
Hello CS fandom! I made a new list and it’s a long one because there are so many great stories with that trope. It includes stories where our favorite couple are neighbors. Hope you enjoy!
If you are intrested you can find my other lists here.

Complete
With Affection, @phiralovesloki
Emma Swan isn't a middle schooler. So why is she receiving notes from a secret admirer? She's also definitely not a romantic person. So why is she writing back? Modern!AU Captain Swan, with side orders of Snowing and Frankenwolf. Updated with second epilogue.
Knock, Knock, @charmingturkeysandwich
Emma Swan has made the best of her crappy apartment ever since she became best friends with her neighbor, Ruby. But when Ruby moves out and a loud Brit takes her place, the thin walls and lack of space are suddenly not so endearing. After a particularly stressful day, Emma decides to confront the nightmare next door, and entirely against her better judgment, she might just be making a friend.
The Pirate Next Door , @the-captains-ayebrows
A handsome stranger moves into the apartment right next to Emma Swan's. Emma isn't ready for romance, but what harm could come of making friends with the charming self-proclaimed "pirate" whose bedroom shares a wall with hers?
Unbreakable, @xemmaloveskillianx
What if Hook was able to go with Emma and Henry when they left to escape Pan’s curse? With no memory of each other or Storybrooke, Emma and Killian meet in New York as complete strangers, both with broken pasts, and both with clean slates for their future.
Sign of Attraction, @hooklineandswan
Some day she was going to find a way to kill him without leaving a trace. Hopefully it would happen before he drove her insane.
In the Name of the Brother, @tnlph
Killian Jones not only finds out about his father's death, but about the brother he never knew he had. Rather than let another Jones boy grow up without a father, Killian takes the boy into his life. He'll do all he can to be the man for his younger brother that his older brother had been for him.
Lend me some sugar, I am your neighbor, @kittennharington
Killian and Emma knew each other in middle school before she was taken away to a new foster home. They meet each other again years later as neighbors in an apartment complex. Contains smut.
Can You Feel it Right Now?, @cutieodonoghue
When Emma Swan agrees to let her annoying neighbor Killian Jones join her to go to the grocery store, the last thing she could have ever anticipated is becoming his wife over the course of a conversation with some people from his past.
Some Sort of Neighborly, @shipping-goggles
They're not neighbors, not exactly, and they're not friends either. It's pretty hard to find reasons to bump into the woman who lives next door to your best friend, especially after your only interaction with her has been waking up on her couch one Saturday morning. Sequel to Rude Awakening.
Look What the Cat Dragged In, @athenascarlet
There are only a couple things Killian Jones knows about his neighbor, Emma Swan. She's a bail bonds person and she's attractive. Also, she apparently has a cat. And he apparently is now her cat sitter.
The Reason, @xemmaloveskillianx
he three of them share a laugh before they all look to Emma. She has yet to comment on the new addition because she isn’t sure what to say. She usually doesn’t like change, they have a good thing going there, just the four of them. Plus, they all know him and she doesn’t, but she trusts their judgement, and she’s sure any brother of Liam can’t be all that bad.
So, with a shrug and a smile she says, “Welcome to Storybrooke, Killian Jones.”
Make Some Noise, @fyeahcaptn
Emma doesn't hate her neighbour per say, she barely knows him. Killian Jones an irritating, insufferable ass who's far too cocky and confident for his own good but seriously, would it hurt him to keep the shower to a normal time like an actual human being? Before she kills him. Modern!AU.
Pay It Forward, @acrobat-elle
Breaking your ankle is one thing. Breaking your ankle three days after you moved into a fifth-floor walkup is something else entirely.
Wip
A Helping Hand, @hookedonapirate
My girlfriend just dumped me and I've gotten piss drunk and somehow managed to get into your apartment instead of my own. I'm trying to masturbate my feelings away and boy were you surprised.
Breaking the Hinges, @piratesails
When Killian Jones decides to spend his night off relaxing in his apartment, the last thing he expects is a beautiful blonde woman bursting through his front door.
Neighborly Affection, @hookslovelyswan
Emma Swan's new neighbor, Killian Jones, is the talk of the neighborhood, and living next door to him is almost more than she can stand, especially since the man doesn't seem to own a shirt! But the tug she feels toward him is inexorable, and the genuine feelings that develop between them...quite unexpected.
One-shot
Transatlanticism, @mahstatins
Emma Swan went to Britain looking for family. It should have been a Hallmark movie, a Christmas miracle waiting to happen. Instead she’s stuck in a grimy London ‘flat’, with the worst next door neighbor in the world.
Well, maybe not the worst.
What a Year (for a New Year), @high-seas-swan
Killian Jones, Boston Bruins right winger, needs a break from the questions and concerns over his career-threatening injury. He thought Storybrooke would be the perfect place to escape to. What he didn't expect was Emma Swan, her kid and a holiday season he never knew he needed.
Subtle and Nuanced, @phiralovesloki
Killian Jones has an unusual relationship with a neighbor in which they exchange notes via cat. He’s also slowly falling for his flower shop’s newest customer. Surely these two things are unrelated.
Tim Finnegan's Wake, @icecubelotr44
"You live in the apartment next to mine and you're always blasting music while I'm trying to sleep but you've been silent for the last two days, are you all right?"
Emma Swan never minded the music. Not until she broke her ankle and her shift moved to days. Now she just wants to sleep. But Killian Jones doesn't seem to notice. So when the condo next door goes silent, she's understandably concerned. When she finds Killian after he got the phone call about his brother he never expected, they'll have to figure out if everything is as it seems.
Smoke and Mirrors, @lifeinahole27
I was burning scented candles and fell asleep. You’re my neighbour who bashed the door down when my smoke alarm went off.
The Perils of Firemen and the Food Network, @shireness-says
Emma Swan is not a cook. But maybe, with the help of her upstairs neighbor, she could be - if her feelings don't get in the way.
Keep On Fallin' , @resident-of-storybrooke
Emma Swan may be a successful bail bondsperson, but when it comes to her love life not so much. After several failed blind dates Emma is ready to give up, but Mary Margaret convinces her to give it one more shot. Is Mr. One Shot going to be the one? Or is she willing to risk taking a chance with her blue eyed gorgeous neighbor?
For the Story, nothandlingit
If there's one thing Killian Jones is ruthlessly stubborn on, it's not letting Emma Swan know how many coffee/hot chocolate/bear claw combinations he's had to gift on to unsuspecting strangers when she doesn't show up at the little bakery near their apartment building. Turns out accidentally running into each other costs some money. A CS AU week submission - beloved tropes.
The Worst/Best Christmas Ever, @captainhookcaptainfreedom
When their flight home is cancelled, Emma is convinced that she and Henry are going to have the worst Christmas ever. However, their next door neighbor, Killian Jones, has different ideas.
That Guy Next Door, @a-fictional-life
M-rated AU one shot just cos it’s Saturday…
You Make Me Better, @ilovemesomekillianjones
CS Neighbors AU where Emma is a nurse and Killian is her definitely-faking-it hypochondriac neighbor who uses illnesses and injuries as an excuse to talk to her.
walking the high line, @losttalongthewayy
Captain Swan NYC neighbors AU – It’s Emma Swan’s 28th birthday and she finds herself stuck helping her upstairs neighbor —the very one she’s sure she hates.
seven for all mankind, @arexnna
“we’re neighbours and we do everything together and spend all our time together and that’s normal, but someone pointed out how we’re essentially dating, but we aren’t, are we?”
Postcards and Shower Songs, @nightships
Emma often finds herself wondering whether it's possible to hate a stranger. Despite never having met or seen him before in her life, she knows exactly two things about Mr. K. Jones — he gets a ton of mail from all over the world and he plays extremely loud music when he wakes up in the morning.
Too Hot (Hot Damn), @this-too-too-sullied-flesh
Emma just doesn’t know what’s hotter--the weather and the fact that the air conditioning is out in her building, or her neighbor.
The Savior's Spatula, @imhookedonaswan
Killian Jones hears his neighbor Emma screaming from her apartment, being the gentleman he is he grabs the first thing he can find to go try to save her.
how not to meet your neighbor…, @startswithhope
Here’s a bit of modern AU nonsense, starring Killian and Emma…
The Sabbatical (or how Emma Swan brought Valentine’s Day back), @lenfaz
Killian Jones abhors his neighbors. He really does.
Two-Shots
The Favor, @madjm
AU. Emma Swan doesn't do relationships, but her annoyingly attractive neighbor, Killian Jones, might change her views. Captain Swan. Previously on ffnet.
The Not So Neighborly Noise, @optomisticgirl
After an exhausting day, one which started with her annoying neighbor waking her up with his singing, all Emma Swan wanted to do was sleep. Little did she know when she crawled into bed that night that everything she thought she knew was going to shift dramatically. Can a closed off woman give a man a chance to prove her wrong?
Ten Minutes, @hookedonapirate
“The game's simple, really. In fact you, my love, don’t have to do a thing,” he ends with a click of his tongue, his silky accent sending shivers down her spine.
“Don’t call me that,” Emma warns him, but honestly her heart is thumping and her interest is highly piqued, “but please do go on.”
“It’s called Ten Minutes. You give me ten minutes to do anything I want to you—touching, teasing, kissing, biting, whatever I want. You so much as moan or make any sound of pleasure, you lose.”
Emma bites her lip at the idea of him doing all those things to her and feels heat creeping into her cheeks. “And if I win? What do I get out of this?”
“If you win, I will never bother you again.”
A grin spreads across her lips. “Okay, you totally made this game up, but sure, I’ll play along,” she decides confidently. She has no doubt she’ll win, so why not? Emma sits up and places the bottle on the floor, glancing over at him again. “You’re on, Jones.”
We Can Feel So Far (From So Close), @once-uponacaptain
Waiting until your best friend left for a cross country tour was a fine time to realize you're in love with him. Captain Swan.
Stray Hearts, @piratesails
He’s insufferable, and nothing, not even the fact that he’s laughing with childlike glee as he cuddles a litter of stray kittens, will change Emma’s mind about Killian Jones. Or, that’s what she thought, anyway.
Three-Shots
Please, Please, Say You Feel it Too, @cutieodonoghue
modern au; Emma pawns her son off to her neighbor Killian. Romance ensues. (Daddy!Killian feels abound!)
Spider Slayer, @startswithhope
"This is totally awkward considering before this the only interactions we've ever had have been casual nods to each other in the hallway but there's a huge fucking spider in my bath tub and you seem like the friendly neighbor type please help me."
Hello fandom, this list was requested by @jonirobinson64, who asked for stories “where one of them is sick or injured and the other is taking care of them”. Hope you like it!

Scar Tissue, @pocket-anon
Four years after losing his hand and his first love in the line of duty, Killian Jones, now a permanent exchange officer with the British Royal Navy, is starting to wonder whether his emotional scars are doomed to be as permanent as his physical ones. A chance meeting with Emma Swan, a young Navy surgeon-in-training, however, grants him the opportunity to work toward healing and happiness, if only he’ll let her in.
When The Beat Of My Drum (Meets The Beat Of Your Heart), photo set @nightships
Pro-surfer Killian Jones loses his hand in a shark attack. During his rehabilitation, he meets physical therapy student Emma Swan. She makes it her quest to help him return to the ocean where he belongs.
The Darling Affair, @icecubelotr44
Ex-military officer Killian Jones has never forgiven the Gold family for what they took from him. But when his path searching for justice (and maybe revenge) leads him straight to Emma Swan, a social worker who’s young charge has just been kidnapped by Malcolm Gold, he might just learn to let go of the past.
Love and Other Bruises, @msgenevieve447
It should have been the simplest of skip grabs, but clearly her life wasn’t meant to be simple. Now she’s banged up and stuck in a hospital bed in the care of a disturbingly attractive male nurse who sees her as a captive audience for his terrible puns. Like she said, her life clearly wasn’t meant to be simple. (mention of minor injuries).
Take Your Time, @montanarosalie
Killian is sick. It’s a lucky coincidence that Emma is a doctor who doesn’t know when to quit.
But Darling, @herfairy
AU: Breaking and entering is a crime, no matter the intentions, but Emma knew she would freeze to death if she didn’t do something.
Wip
Varcolac: A Hybrid Tale, @hollyethecurious
While heading home to prepare for the coming evening, Killian Jones happens upon a woman broken down on the side of the road. A woman who shifts the entire foundations of his being with just her scent. Killian Jones is a werewolf you see, and the unsuspecting lass has landed herself deep in werewolf country on the cusp of the first night of the full moon. Knowing he must get her on her way for her own safety, Killian offers to fix her vehicle, but things go awry in town when another wolf attempts to stake a claim on the stunning stranger. Now Killian must do all he can to protect the woman, Emma Swan, from a vengeful pack, all while keeping his true nature a secret from her. Turns out, Killian Jones is no ordinary werewolf.
One-shots
Scar of the Heart, @curiousthingdarkness
Emma Swan hunts alone. Except on nights when Killian Jones, fellow demon hunter and pain in her ass, insists on joining her. When dealing with a particularly troublesome beast, they discover that perhaps there is more to each other than meets the eye. Captain Swan soulmate/demon hunter AU, one shot.
Prompt, @sotheylived
Killian and Emma are both thieves that work together but they have a maybe bank robbery gone bad in which one of them gets hurt with a happy ending?
Intensive Care, StrawberryFields4ever
“He’d been wondering what color her eyes were for months, until the day he didn’t have to wonder anymore.” AU One-Shot. Doctor!Killian and ComaPatient!Emma.
In Sickness and In Health, @ilovemesomekillianjones
Emma is sick and tired, literally. As always, she perseveres by pushing through her bout of the flu because only Emma takes care of Emma. When Killian comes down with the same flu, how will he handle it? Is he a cut above the average ailing male, or will Killian manage the man flu the same way he does most things... with panache?
A Minor Slip-Up, @phiralovesloki
After injuring himself, Killian has to rely on Emma to take care of him, whether he likes it or not. Captain Swan one-shot.
Her New Project, @sherlockianwhovian
Based on this Tumblr prompt: Lieutenant Jones is stuck in bed with a high fever, Emma takes care of him.
Seeking Refuge, @hollyethecurious
Out of the corner of her eye Emma Swan spotted something sticking out of the snow. She knew she should press on, but curiosity got the better of her and she changed course to go investigate. Nothing could have prepared her for what she found.
Lying there, with a layer of snow starting to cover him, was a man. Blood was crusted along his dark hairline and had dried in streaks down his face. He was terribly cold to the touch, but she could feel a faint pulse and see puffs of frozen breath escaping his mouth.
She didn’t have time to wonder who he was or how he got there. He needed to get warm before his body shut down.
Hello Beautiful Fandom, the latest list has some lovely historical aus, I truly enjoy reading about captainswan through all times and places. Hope you enjoy! 🕮 🔖

The Reformed Scoundrel, @hooklineandswan
Emma's dire situation calls for desperate measures, proposing marriage to a duke seems to be the only way to protect her son, and there is just one nobleman who might consider such an outrageous offer - Killian Jones, the Duke of Hillsborough, the most notorious rake the ton has ever seen.
But Never Inconstant, @shireness-says
Persuasion AU. Killian Jones and Emma Swan were wildly in love, until he broke their engagement, ostensibly to preserve her family ties. Eight years later, the former lovers meet again. Can they mend their relationship and right their misunderstandings, or is it too late?
Wip
Love, Kindness, and Other Useless Things, @joneskillian
CS AU, set in 1815.
Lord Killian Jones is haunted by the demons of his past which makes him nowhere near the man he once was, so he can’t be the father he wants to be. And above all, he believes he is undeserving of love. Perhaps with Emma that is all about to change. But falling in love is never easy, that’s just how it is.
Blunders and (happy) Beginnings, @effulgentcolors
The result of too much Jane Austen and associating everything with Captain Swan.

A Pirate Comes to Pemberly, @mryddinwilt
Years ago Miss Emma Nolan of Pemberley was left heartbroken by the unfaithful Neal Cassidy. Now an older and wiser young woman a chance meeting with the scandalous Captain Killian Jones leaves her determined to not make the same mistake. A OUAT AU fused with Pride & Prejudice where David and Snow are Lizzy and Darcy and Emma is Georgiana. A long one shot and birthday gift!
Home, @eleveneitherway
WWII AU where Killian returns home from war alongside Robin, Liam, Will and Dr. Whale.
you cut through all the noise, @joneskillian
CS AU set in early 1940s.
How DO you win over a girl who isn't interested in a handsome face and witty one-liners? Perhaps being her friend would have been a better start.
Girl Named Tennessee, @searchingwardrobes
The pretty brunette and the gorgeous blonde at the bar introduce themselves as “Georgia” and “Tennessee.” Naval officers David Noland and Killian Jones know full well those aren’t their real names. But its 1942, and they ship out tomorrow, so does it really matter?
OK, so I have tons of work to do this weekend and also prompts to write but I can't help iiit - I've been craving fics with single dad Killian and single mom Emma like crazy! Separate is good (esp with Killian since I know Emma is a single mom in A LOT) but especially both together.
