I never thought I'd find an OTP I would dedicate a side blog to, until I met you. I'd go to the end of the world for Captain Swan...or time.

Once Upon A Time : Goodbye Series

Here is my tribute to the ending of the show. It was fun, yet I did feel a bit of sadness when doing them just because I don’t want to say goodbye. 

People were asking if they would be up on my Etsy shop and all of them are (even in digital form). I put an option for you guys to purchase two at once (saving you $10 ) and not be charged extra shipping. My Etsy store is CrispArtPrints  for those interested :) 

Enjoy the finale, everyone!

CS + “So, I found this waterfall...”

Neverland arc.

send me a number and pairing. [gendrya, jonerys, captain swan]

“Where have you been?” He comes crashing through the jungle like a man possessed, his hair half a mess and his coat twirling about his ankles. He has his sword drawn like he intends to do battle, his entire body hurdling to a stop when he finally take her in - pants rolled to her knees and feet dangling in the water. 

“I, um,” she wiggles her toes in the water, suddenly feeling stupid for the indulgence. But the jungle was just so damn humid, and she hasn’t been able to breathe for a second, and - 

“I found a waterfall,” she explains. 

He drops his sword by his side, blinking at her. Silence stretches between them and she looks over her shoulder for her boots, suddenly feeling like crying, though she doesn’t know why. The exhaustion, probably. Worrying about Henry and - god, Henry. He could be anywhere and here she is - sitting with her feet in the water. Lounging like she’s on a holiday vacation. 

“I’ll just be a minute,” she mumbles, pulling her legs from the water. “I need to get my - “ 

His hand is gentle on her shoulder, his sword back in it’s sheath and his leather jacket in a neatly folded bundle next to her boots. He looks smaller without the coat. Less pirate captain, and more - 

More Killian. 

“Nonsense, Swan,” he doesn’t toe off his boots, but he does sit next to her, angling his face into the cool spray of the water. She’s never noticed the line of his jaw before, the flip of his dark hair at the nape of his neck. “We can spare a moment more.” 

They sit in the silence together, and she doesn’t overthink it when her head finds his shoulder.

I know I know it’s kind of late but I’ve just finshed If the Stars Align by @swanslieutenant and got inspired. So there we have two manips!

[wuvtwoowuv]

Emma: Then let's get the hell out of Neverland.

Hook: As you wish, my lady. Bosun, weigh anchor!

David: Who the hell is Bosun?

Emma: Do I look like a Bosun to you?

Regina: I made the ship fly, I'm out.

Snow: Maybe he has an invisible friend... named bosun?

Neal: *long suffering sigh* On it.

Would you by any chance has some longer rics where Emma was a visitor in England or Ireland and met Killian while she was there?? Thanks so much love! :)

my dearest anon,

you’ve hit the motherlode. but there’s a catch

let me tell you a story that you definitely didn’t ask for

it was 2014. i was a newbie in the fandom, only following half a dozen cs stories on ff net. there weren’t a lot, but enough to get one update every day. i read avidly. then one story touches me deeply. it’s about emma giving up her life in the us and catching the first plane to ireland. the land is green and beautiful but she is lonely amidst the planes. she thought she could escape, but now it doesn’t seem like a grand idea. what convinces her to stay? a kind hearted, beer queen granny, her sassy grandaughter and of course, a blue eyed smirking irishman. mix all that with making beer, enjoying the beautiful irish tranditions and a fondness for uk 70′s rock music (i developed an affnity to the who myself after that) and you got an irresistible story

what is the catch, you ask? well, it hasn’t been updated since 2014. april. the 9th. i remember because i check. routinely

the story is The Irish Ocean by tnla 

Summary: Modern AU: Emma Swan decides to start a new life far away from New York and her past. She decides to take a plane to the first place that catches her eye: Dublin, Ireland. Rated T. 8/?

the author responded to one of my posts a couple of years ago, saying that she didn’t think anyone still cared about it

feedback matters, guys!

so, to answer your question, this is the one i’d rec you first. the story was a message to the fandom and something i needed to say

since this was less of a rec and more my ‘one who got away’, here are more recs:

Ireland Fics

A Million Shores and Bays by @piratesails

It isn’t exactly her fault she’s come to trust a man she’s never met over, well, any other man she’s actually met. It’s what makes all of it safer, easier even, knowing that there’s no way she can actually fuck it all up by running away when she’s already away to begin with. Pen Pals AU.

Something Old, Something New by @siren-lungs

Stuck in an unhappy marriage Emma Swan finds that her once fulfilling life is anything but that. Can the reappearance of old flame, Killian Jones, help her find what she’s been missing? Rated M for later chapters. Modern AU.

irish summer by @initiala

Even the Dogs in the Street Know by @nightships

In her defense, Ruby’s grandmother had called it “perfect weather for a jog.” In hindsight, though, she should have known better. Emma’s run in the rural countryside of Ireland leads her to far more than she ever bargained for waiting down the lane.

Another Scenario by captainofswans 

Emma Swan can’t stand to live in New York City a day longer. She switches homes with a man named Liam Jones, who lives in a small town in Ireland, and her life is about to get flipped on its head-with or without her consent. 

Finding Emma Swan by @optomisticgirl  

After an emotional crippling incident Emma Swan decides to try to find herself amid the rolling green hills of Ireland. But while there she will find more than just herself, if only she’ll open her heart to the blue eyed Irishman who promises her the world.(unfinished) [the first story that got me interested in the writer]

Just a week by CaptainMatick 

AU. Emma Swan is from Boston and is about to fly to Dublin, Ireland. Killian Jones comes back home after a while spent in America. Both of them end up in the same plane, sat side by side. That’s where everything begins.

A Rose in the Deeps of my Heart by @spartanguard

Emma’s visit to her friends in Ireland becomes more than just a vacation when she meets a handsome man in the woods. A handsome man who turns out to me an immortal fae—and helps reveal some truths about herself.

Love In Éire by BlackWidowNat 

Emma goes to Ireland to help her foster brother August on a movie set. She meets the dashing lead actor, Killian Jones, and her life will never be the same. Can she get rid of those walls and let someone in? (Modern!AU with actor!Killian)

*wait until the 16th february for @mahstatins story for the cslb. no spoilers, but emm & uk & tv shows

Happy 35th Captain Swan Day!

Hello My Friends!

@alexandralyman​ is talented and brilliant writer and i think most of you, my friends, know her fics. I love her stories so very much! And not only her MC - last week i rediscovered so many wonderful, amazing one shots that i read long ago and read even more for the first time. She wrote so many and every story, every verse she create is perfect!

Alex - thank you for all fics you write, thank you that you share them with us! I love words you create, historical times you show us - everything you write is brilliant and reading your stories makes even the worst day better! Thank you! <3

Beyond the Horizon -  AU: When Princess Emma’s ship is captured by the Jolly Roger and Captain Killian Jones, she offers herself as a hostage for ransom if he will let the ship and the other passengers go. With Emma, Killian remembers the honour he once held dear, and Emma catches glimpses of the gentleman Killian had been. Against all odds, the pirate and the princess begin to fall for each other. 

Between Heaven and Hell  (Tumblr AO3) -  A Hook/Emma angel/demon AU. They hide in plain sight, the servants of heaven and hell. The angels and the demons, who can save your soul or damn it. They stand on opposite sides, they are the bringers of light and the agents of darkness, they are enemies in an eternal war, but what happens when an angel and a demon are inexplicably drawn to each other? 

I love this two MC - and i think most of you read them too - if not - i strongly recommend you to do so! (warning - highly addictive)

(bonus - read all one shots she wrote for this two stories - perfection!)

I also love her other stories:

Love Potion Number Nine -  After defeating the Wicked Witch and returning to the Enchanted Forest, a prince arrives with the goal of winning Emma’s hand in marriage. He attempts to snare her with a love potion, but Hook intervenes and winds up activating the potion himself, causing Emma to fall in love with him. The effect is temporary, but it’s going to be a hell of a ride until it wears off.

Two amazing WIP:

Faster, Higher, Stronger (Tumblr) -  Crown Princess Emma of Misthaven is considered the best hope for the tiny European country to win their first ever medal at the Summer Olympics, but due to security concerns her parents have sent her to Rio with two ex-British Special Forces private bodyguards, Liam and Killian Jones.

Liner Notes (Tumblr) -  CS rockstar/actress AU. Killian Jones, lead singer of the band Crimson Flag, has been burned in the past by love and turned his heartbreak into a hit album, Hook. But with his new single, I Still Do, he’s ready to proclaim to the world that he still believes in love. All he needs is an actress to appear in the song’s music video and he has just the one in mind - TV star Emma Swan.

Her perfect one shots:

Enjoy The Ride -  What if Killian hadn’t been in the cabin when Emma and Past!Hook came back to the Jolly Roger? 

My Kiss is Poison But My Love is True -  Hook’s lips are cursed but hers aren’t. Angsty smut set after “A Curious Thing”.

Slow Dance  (Tumblr)  Snow White has planned a large royal ball, but Emma just wants a night alone with her pirate. After all, it’s not the dance, it’s the partner that counts. (written after s3)

Captain Duckling runaway bride AU

Put Another Coin in the Jukebox Baby (and dance with me) - Smutty Bartender!Killian AU.

Can’t Sleep - A little CS, post-Camelot ball drabble

Bed of Roses - CS after kiss in the middlemist field

“Swan! You’re depriving me of a romantic gesture.”

Killian and Emma after his heart is back

After 4a finale

CS drinking rum in New York City Serenade

Killian buying Emma flowers

Now You See Me - Emma notices that Killian has to hold his cell phone away from him to read it. Emma thinks he might be farsighted. Killian ends up getting glasses.

CS street kids AU

Secret Agent Man -  Kingsmen inspired AU - Part 1 Part 2

Lieutenant Duckling smut Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

hips don’t lie -  CS modern AU fic. Emma and Tink are used to their friend Ruby’s crazy ideas, so when she signs them all up for belly dance classes they don’t bother arguing and just go with it. Part 1 Part 2

Snowflakes and Starlight (Tumblr) - pure Lieutenant Duckling fluffiness. A princess with diamond stars in her hair, a smitten young Lt Jones, and a royal winter ball. 

Anchor -  AU of the tavern scene in The Jolly Roger

Touch -  Killian with both hands on the date, written before the ep aired

at my worst, you are my best -  Killian gets split in two by Jekyll’s potion

counting down (the weeks, the days, the hours) (Tumblr AO3) -  He counts down the time left until he’s eighteen and can finally leave, join the Navy like his brother and get out of this damn town. She waits to age out of the system so she can live near the beach and finally have a real home. Lieutenant Duckling modern AU. 

A Dream of Spring on a Winter’s Night (Tumblr) -  A wintery, melancholy Enchanted Forest AU, where Captain Hook is stuck in port during a snowstorm and whiles away the evenings at the Lone Swan tavern.

Cleansed (Tumblr) -  After Killian’s return from the Underworld, he and Emma go back to the house together to change and enjoy a little reunion in the shower before heading back out to face the newest threat to Storybrooke.

Lives Never Lived (But Not Forgotten)  (Tumblr) -  A little bit of canon divergence where Emma and Deckhand Hook had one night together in Isaac’s version of the EF. He doesn’t remember her, but he’s the only one in this world who wants to.

Every Page is a Story (The Tales of Us)  ff.net collection of various Captain Swan themed one shots and drabbles.

from that collection i found on Tumblr:

Forever Home   Captain Swan fic with a Newfoundland puppy in the snow

Falling through Time (and into your arms)  -  an Outlander AU -  Emma Swan-Cassidy has somehow managed to time travel from 2015 back to 1785 while in Ireland with her husband Neal.

She wants to return to her own time, but she can’t deny her attraction to the gallant young Irishman.

fallen skies -  A little post apocalyptic CS AU

let slip your secrets, my darling  - written after 4a 

playing footy - CS AU inspired by Colin playing football

[alexandralyman]

Wow - thank you for this trip down memory lane! Everything from Neverland to Camelot and more. Some of these stories didn’t turn out the way I imagined, some turned out better, but I’m proud of trying new things and putting all of this out there. I have a few things left unfinished I’d like to go back and complete, some I want to continue or expand, just to WRITE ALL THE THINGS!

@cat-sophia, I’m just blown away by this. And to all of you who have also been liking/reblogging/commenting on these old fics, thank you too!

Bad Idea (Ch.1)

Enemies AU

Emma Swan’s big story is stolen by none other than Killian Jones. But to her surprise, he comes to her with a proposition. 

Word Count: 1659

For @swanandapirate

Happy music plays in the streets, and multicolored lights twinkle in the trees. The air is crisp and cool.  There’s a fresh blanket of snow on the ground. New York is dazzling during the holiday season.

It’s giving her a headache.

She spots someone reading a copy of The Mirror at a nearby bench. She grinds her teeth. On the front page is a picture of Mr. Gold being led away in chains accompanied by large black letters.

Mayor Gold Arrested

By Killian Jones.

That damn man kept showing up. Always shoving himself where he did not belong. She could not be rid of him.

In college, they worked on the paper together. Both determined to win the coveted internship at The Mirror given at the end of senior year. She drove herself to near insanity. She sacrificed tears, sweat, and long hours of work. Everyone thought it was hers, and then Killian won it. The rivalry transformed into something else. Something deeper. She accepted a job at The Informer. It was a good paper, but it was second rate compared to The Mirror.

Now he was stealing her stories now too.

How did he even find out? Detective Lucas had promised she had only spoken to her, and Emma believed her.

She needed coffee.

Fighting This War

“If it takes fighting a war for us to meet, it will have been worth it.” Lieutenant Duckling AU

Author’s Note: Merry Christmas, everyone, especially to @seastarved , to whome this fic is dedicated. Surprise! I am your Hub Secret Santa! I hope you enjoy this Enchanted Forest AU. I’m so glad we share a mutual love of Enchanted Forest AUs. Special thanks to @sambethe , who helped me with this fic many moons ago.  Can also be read on AO3. 

Fighting This War

Snow gently falls outside as skirts twirl inside, ladies being spun around the ballroom by their suitors, laughing and loving and forgetting the potential disasters that await them on the other side of the castle’s walls. At least, all appear to forget except one, Princess Emma of Misthaven. 

She hates the balls, hates what they symbolize when a war is being waged outside of these walls. It seems so superfluous to her, if not downright insulting to those fighting and dying to be hosting one fete after another. Her father tells her that these balls are the best way to honor the men who risk their lives in honor of the crown. Her mother says they are to distract their people from the fear of war, give them something to celebrate, a momentary reprieve.

Emma simply finds it to be a waste.

feel a little rush (I think I’ve got a crush) [2/2]

you guys are the best, thanks for being so enthusiastic about this little story. it all wraps up here, and I hope you guys enjoy! @high-seas-swan deserves all the love and praise for actually getting me off my butt to finish this, and finish it well.

for those of you who don’t know:  au where high school lit teacher killian jones ends up on the hotdudesreading instagram page and is very, very confused by it all.

part one | ao3 | ffn

Perhaps he should have anticipated at least some of it but he doesn’t think he’ll ever get used to people walking up to him in the middle of the street and saying, “I drove here from Boston because I saw you and this town on Instagram oh my God can I get a photo with you please?” All as if it’s one sentence, too.

It doesn’t happen too often, but it happens enough. Because apparently his face is attracting tourists and the town’s business has never been so good. Or so Mayor Mills tells him, in her perpetually unimpressed tone of voice, pursed lips and all.

He’s fallen down some wormhole, or walked through a portal, or is surely dreaming of something Twilight Zone inspired because this is not a life he’d ever thought he’d be even remotely close to having.
