Season 2 Rewatch Drabbles--2x14 Manhattan

Summary:  A series of 100-500 word drabbles to accompany my   rewatch of season 2 of Once Upon a Time as an attempt to finally jump   start the muse again.  There will be a drabble–either a deleted scene, a   “fix it” fic or a character musing for each episode of the season.    Focus will be on Emma, Henry, the Charmings and Killian–with an   emphasis on the very beginnings of Captain Swan’s epic love story, as   soon as a certain dashing pirate makes his appearance.  

Word Count: 482

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Note: After watching this episode again, I once again have the strongest urge to force Neal to walk barefoot across a room full of legos and rusty nails. The following fic shows you exactly why.

“I get it,” Neal said with a patronizing smirk, “we’re all messed up. Let’s just try not to pass that on to Henry, okay?”

Emma nodded and dropped her eyes, emotionally collapsing in on herself as she watched him climb out onto the fire escape to talk to their son.  Suddenly she felt small, unimportant, petty.  Suddenly she was that unloved, emotionally stunted seventeen year old again.

For years after her arrest she’d hoped and dreamed of the moment she’d see Neal again, hoped he’d come back for her, hoped there was some reasonable explanation for why he’d left her, why he’d set her up for his crimes.

But as the years passed without even a word from him, that hope had died.  She decided she really should thank him.  He’d taught her a valuable lesson: that you’ve got to look out for yourself, never let anyone in.  She’d built the walls that had protected her for the past decade, and she was stronger for it.

So imagine her shock when she’d successfully run down Gold’s long lost son this afternoon, only to discover that son was Neal.

She’d wanted to hate him on sight; wanted to throw in his face how much he’d hurt her, wanted to at least show him she was over him, over it all, but she couldn’t.  As soon as she saw him, she realized she’d never stopped loving him.  She’d never gotten closure, and so, she’d never moved past being that lonely seventeen year old who’d wanted so desperately to be loved that she’d soaked up every scrap of affection Neal gave her like the parched ground when it finally got rain.

Emma had agreed to have a drink with him, finally asking him for the truth.  When he gave it to her, she wished he hadn’t.

“Did you know who I was when we met?” 

“If I had, I wouldn’t have gone near you.”

“You left me and let me go to prison because Pinocchio told you to?”

She’d left, her heart shattered all over again.

And then he’d returned to his apartment, and everything had hit the fan.  She’d had to come clean to Henry about his father, and the betrayal in her kids’ eyes had nearly destroyed her.  She knew what this kind of betrayal felt like, and she was damn well NOT going to let Neal further hurt her boy.

She’d tried to stand up to Neal, tried to show him one last time how much he’d hurt her, tried to give him one last chance to apologize–or at least explain, but what she’d gotten instead was condescension and a chiding about being petty with regard to their son.

Maybe Neal was right.  Maybe she still was nothing more than that unloved teenager who’d never be worth a damn as a girlfriend, as a mother, or even as a human being.

ONCE UPON A TIME 2.14, Manhattan

[fuckyeahbelleandrumpelstiltskin]

[intothewickedwood]

Once Upon A Time Rewatch: 2x14 Manhattan

Rumple taught Milah how to sow! Awww!

It’s so interesting that Milah didn’t want Rumple to fight in the ogre wars at first. If you ask me, that’s the sensible stance to take. I wonder what changed her mind. I guess it was what Rumple said about it.

Wow, Neal really doesn’t wanna be found.

Emma processing all that finding Neal in place of Baelfire implies xD.

I love that reveal! I think I remember calling it just before I initially watched the episode.

Woah, this looks really bad to Emma. It looks like Neal and Rumple set her up from the beginning.

What are the chances that 2 people from that world would find each other in the LWOM? There must be some sort of magic at play there.

Aww, Rumple treating his grandson to a hotdog is so cute!! And then he thanks Henry for bringing Emma to Storybrooke!! And Henry trying to reassure Mr. Gold is so sweet. My heart!!

Poor Emma. This must be really hard for her.  

I’m not sure I believe that everything that happens, happens by design. I just believe that we have what we have and then all hell breaks loose. But then and again who knows for certain. Maybe our past guides our future or something wild like that.

I think Emma should have told him about Henry. I understand why she didn’t; having him in her life was too painful.

Wow. She’s been wearing that keychain this whole time!

That girl is not a freaking beast! She’s a child for god’s sake!!

And they haven’t given her any water in days!! How cruel!! Wow, the people fighting in the ogre’s wars really don’t give a damn about children.

Omg, can that young actress see under that make up? Is this safe??

Rumples so excited to be a father!!

It seems the Seer’s prophecies come to past no matter what. The Seer is Raven Baxter’s ancestor?? Rumple is??  

It’s true. Henry has a right to know who is father is. I didn’t meet my father until I was 9 because my mother couldn’t bring herself to call him and my father didn’t actually do anything wrong?? But yeah, not knowing is the worst, at least, it is if you want to know.

Hmm. Where did Rumple get that ring from? Am I forgetting something?

Rumple: “The future is like a puzzle, with missing pieces. Difficult to read and never, never what you think.” I like the way Rumple’s foresight works. It gives him just enough of a heads up without giving him knowledge of absolutely everything that’s going to happen.

How does Regina know where the dagger should be?

How does David not know that you can have more than one grandfather??

The Seer knew the chain of events that would lead to Bae being fatherless. That’s so interesting.  

What’s the point in sending all those people out to fight the ogres when their methods are seemingly ineffective? And to think, even knowing this, they later go on to recruit children! Like, what’s the point??

Mr. Gold can be hella scary sometimes. What’s he threatening to do anyway, beat Emma??

Wait. That doesn’t make sense. The Seer said Milah was already pregnant and on that same night Rumple damaged his foot. But when he arrives at his old place, Milah is carrying a baby, so unless they waited a while to let Rumple go after his injury…Oh! Unless he had already been with the soldiers for around 9 months, I guess.

Milah seemed so happy when she told Rumple Bae’s name.

For goodness sake, who gives a damn about what other people say. Rumple left the battlefield because he didn’t want his son to grow up fatherless like he did. I will always stand by Rumple here. He just wanted to be a good, present father.

Why does Milah have to be so cruel here. I don’t dislike the woman but would she have rather become a single mother? Rumple was a dedicated, loving parent to Bae. Who wouldn’t want that for their child? I mean, I get that more went on, with him making a deal that prevented them from having another child (which I think was understandable, given the fact that their son would have died otherwise) and not allowing them to leave the village but I don’t understand her anger here.

Look at Rumple with his son. This is such an adorable scene!! He just wants to be a good Papa!

The flashback makes it even more heartbreaking for Rumple. He loves his son more than anything and goddamn it, I just want them to be a family again. I know a lot has happened but Rumple instantly regretted letting Bae go.

“Is this my son?” I just know, from that moment Bae is gonna be the best father he can be.

Hehe, Hook getting thrown around by Cora!

Imagine Cora as the dark one. Goodness help us all!!

Imagine if Bae decided to be 14 again. That would have been wild! But it’s also heartbreaking how much Rumple wants Bae to say yes to that. He’s lived hundreds of years regretting letting his son go. I mean, that is such a dedicated father. He cares so much and would sacrifice everything for his child.

Neal: “Every night, for more years than you could know, the last thing I see before sleep, is the image of you… You and me, over that pit. Your hand… Wrapped around mine. And then, you open your grip. And as I fall away, all I can see is your face. Choosing all…this…crap over me.” My soul just broke.

Seer: “It will not be an easy path. It will take many years… And require a curse. A curse…powerful enough to rip everyone from this land. You will not cast the curse… Someone else will. And you will not break the curse… Someone else will.” That explains so much.

Aww. Henry and Neal getting to know each other. And Henry’s smiling whilst talking to him.

Seer: “The future is a puzzle with many pieces to be sorted. In time, you will learn to separate what can be, from what will be….. You will be reunited with your son, and it will come in a most unexpected way…. A boy… A young boy will lead you to him. But beware, Rumpelstiltskin, for that boy is more than he appears. He will lead you…to what you seek. But there will be a price. The boy… Will be your undoing.” If Rumple knew this, then I wonder why he initially didn’t want Henry to come with them to NY. Maybe he didn’t want Henry to be the boy.

Also, was Henry Rumple’s undoing in the end? I don’t know if he was the first time he died (Maybe he was because the events that came after searching for Henry in Neverland led him to make that sacrifice). But in season 7, Henry wanted to save Ella and Lucy and Rumple ended up in the globe, which allowed him his bonding moment with Wish Hook, which could have led to his sacrifice but I suppose a better explanation is that Henry retrieved the Author’s pen, which led to Wish Rumple taking possession of it and using it to try to write personal hells for all of the characters, which then led to Rumple making his final sacrifice. So, I guess, in a way, Henry was his undoing.

Gold, don’t you dare hurt Henry!

[sendintheantiheroes]

One of the things I love about Once Upon a Time is how a lot of it taken out of context is so damn funny, I mean where else am I gonna hear lines like "You left me and let me go to prison because Pinocchio told you too?"

Your magic globe didn’t give you an apartment number? It doesn’t work that way. Do any of these names mean anything to you? Well, names are what I traffic in, but sadly, no.
