Love modern fairytales. Would love to see a once upon a time tv show with a modern fairytale someday

I joked about the gap between Emma and Regina in their scene as the writers "Gay Panic" but what if it was actually our ladies who were suffering with it? Think back to season 1 when our ladies weren't so friendly, hated each other even. They were all up in each other's faces, uncaring about personal space. They had no personal feelings for one another, they wanted to intimidate each other. Even if there had been some attraction they weren't about to go off for some stress-relieving hate sex; it's a family show, after all, so physical intimacy comes with feelings. Flash forward we get introduced to Pirate Beard and Thief Beard. It's okay for our gals to get closer because they can't get too close around all that facial hair because it'll get too uncomfortable for everyone involved. We see moments of jealousy as they start being physically distant. Now we're a beard down things have gotten more complicated. Emma's confronted with alone time with Regina, the woman she shares a son with, whom she has sacrificed for, a woman who has supported and chosen Emma for no reason other than she cares. They want each other to be happy. Emma has always wanted to give everyone their happy ending, with Pirate Beard claiming it's her, so shes really trying to live that hetro dream she's seen all around her, but it's not making her happy despite her saying she is. She keeps her distance from Regina because of her Gay Panic, and Regina keeps her distance because she doesn't want to get in the way of Emma's supposed happy ending after she's spent so long trying ensure Regina gets hers. The closer they've gotten the further apart physically they keep themselves so they don't tamper with each other's happy ending. And that breaks my heart because they should realise that they are each other's happy ending. I don't know if I articulated my thoughts properly, but this is my theory on why they seem to always be so far apart despite how close they've grown in their relationship.
