#red snowing

[konako]

How do you think Red came out as a werewolf to everyone? Like obv Snow Belle Dorothy and Mulan all saw or heard about it but what about the not so obvious ones like David? How did they pr would they react to it?

We both know I’m a multi-shipper and i adore Red Snowing..what if in the Swanfire universe during season 3-4, Ruby kinda encourages her daughter to truly go for it and see what happens?

Because Emma doubts the idea of love with Neal again, until she get stuck in the portal with Neal (or let’s we can make it a mother daughter trip instead with Ruby & Emma whichever one you like lol) back in time to the enchanted forest, that she realized that she is loved. And that she definitely deserves to truly try it again with Neal for real this time.

I believe after that trip Ruby nudges Emma go finally go for it and see what happens. Because Ruby knows that True Love existed and you should always try to find a way to be with someone or you will regret it.

So in season 4, when she finds out that Emma and Neal are going on a date. Ruby and Snow team up to make sure they’re daughter looks so pretty, confident and happy for that night.

Snow even tells their baby son, “Your big sister is going on a date.” 

“Snow honey, let’s just see how it goes first.” Ruby replies with a smile, looking at baby Ben, “But your mother’s right. She is.”

Idk what else to add. I can only imagine how both of them are secretly gushing about the date meanwhile David is huffing thinking that Emma is still his babygirl and whatnot, not TOO trilled about the date. Because hello, protective daddy charming is cute haha.

I love all that :)

I do think David is a lot easier on Neal because he knows he's actually good for her. He likely would give Neal the whole staredown and jokingly offer to drive, but I don't think he'd be as bad. David went and picked up Emma when she stood Neal up at the diner haha. It's safe to say, all of Red Snowing is on Team Neal.

Snow: There's no way he likes me back.

Ruby: Charming would throw himself in front of a car for you. Trust me, he likes you.

Snow: Charming would throw himself in front of a moving car just for fun.

Ruby Lucas is the unsung fandom bicycle because the straights stole our bisexual pirate trash can from us

#we deserved more scenes with David and Ruby restoring some order#because of course they do in Snow's absence#and also I will never be tired of shepherd and wolf moments#(oh S2 began with the most wonderful set-ups) YES we deserved more scenes! They could've been a power Throuple! Also, I still feel like first half of season 2 was the best.

The beginning of S2 is so amazing. What I love most is how they resolved this whole issue with Emma suddenly having to believe in everything. Including that these are indeed her parents. Who abandoned her (for what they thought of as good reason, but she was ALONE), Send them to the Enchanted Forest, where she can’t run from Mary Margaret, where she has to learn some things the hard way and where she gets to meet Snow fucking White. Fierce protector of what she loves. (And the side-story with Sleeping Warrior is icing on the cake... until they suddenly run off to revive Philip... because...... well... they can??????)

The emotional investment seeing Cora scheme, Regina’s struggle with everything, I even enjoy seeing this evil side of Gold who is all like “magic is power and I want power” and Belle is just “but why? can’t I be enough”. If Hook was just the fun rapscalion and didn’t project “love interest here” from the start without work from the writers... oh S2 was brilliant. Cora’s death! And the aftermath! The way Greg and Tamara are set up (oh, having Sonequa Martin Green on the show...)

But yeah, in the midst of it all in the chaotic new awakening, we had David who lost his wife and daughter through a portal, holding things together. And he could rely on Ruby. Because she was there for the whole story (even if it doesn’t look like it, because the flashbacks leave out a lot and later seasons... well.... she was there in spirit! Always!). And yes, this is a time where I am absolutely down with a throuple, like we say now. The polyamory solution to everything! They can just work on so many levels. (I also like to imagine Grumpy having the laughing fit of his life when he finds out that David isn’t Prince James, but really a poor commoner. “A shepherd? And a wolf? In your bed together??”)

Imagine the writers had taken some time to let the group catch up after Mary Margaret’s and Emma’s return. Okay, I think the bit in the hospital is super funny (”like some kind of Frankenstein” “yep, that’s Whale” and the whole reviving Daniel thing etc lol ). But also a bit more. For the emotions. This feeling what it means that David and Ruby did their best, even though the center of their universe was missing. (Eddie and Adam could materialize in my room and tell me that Red never had a crush on Snow and I would shoot laserbeams out of my eyes and tell them they’re wrong).

The most important reason why Red is totally squeezing in with this One True Love couple to end all True Love couples? She helps raise Emma in a time without the curse (of course, again, wish!verse didn’t have Red, because of stupid decisions, which is why wish!verse is lacking a key ingredient). Why else does everybody agree to let Ruby babysit Henry without a question? Because that would’ve been her role as secondary mom//godmother//wild-forest-aunt. Emma barely got a chance to talk to Ruby after the curse broke. How stupid is that?? Emma never even met the wolf.

Which then led to that weird nightmare moment at the end of S5 that doesn’t make an ounce of sense. “Dreaming” about a beast killing Snow to then find it’s Red...... what even......... no, no, no, no. I want Red running around with Charming more. Terrible jokes about eating sheep and neither actually being fit for royal drama. I need them to argue who’s turn it is to hold Snow back from doing something reckless. (This is Red’s fault, when they met she was suddenly “let’s kill the wolf” and ever since Snow has become more and more of a daredevil with a let’s-do-the-thing-attitude. Consequences? Ha!... well and then comes regret.)

Put it in the subtext............ after Snow gets back her throne, Red holds on to all her bandit!Snow clothes and keeps every trinket from those days safe.
