Some days were harder than others, being a first time parent and learning through trial and error, but having a baby stuck in a tower left him with less options than most. Killian wished on the days that Alice cried from something he couldn’t predict, he could have brought her outside, lulled her to sleep from the sounds of birds chirping, leaves from trees rustling, and waves overlapping themselves. However, he felt fortunate that the tiny tot’s wailing calmed whenever he rocked her in his arms and started a familiar tune. He didn’t mind singing her old lullabies from his childhood, almost bringing back to the present the way his mother’s soft lilt and ginger curls mesmerized him as she tucked him and Liam in. Some of the words were lost and forgotten to time, but the way Alice cooed, yawned, and wrapped her hand around his finger told him his singing carried enough. (Didn't know where in my fics to put this or if I should make a short one dedicated to Killian figuring out how to take care of a baby, so I'm sending this into the world in case I never use it)

what if Rogers had a fuller beard? (2/x)

(continuing from my and @pirateherokillian's conversation, because I can't resist that bearded face)

Love how he said that like it was supposed to mean something to Black Beard.

Good to know that my likes haven't changed much; the first thing that I liked was Knightrook related. From that and seeing the sweet community on here, I guess I'm thankful that I found a new site to carve a space into and loads of new people to be friends/mutuals with. Knightrook and Madarcher/Curious Archer my beloved <3

Happy moments to lift the spirit. 

Dedicated to @lillpon. Send your request!

(WISH) KILLIAN JONES, SEASON 7 I’ve only ever known one person good enough to pass on their name...my mother. Yeah. She, uh, she tried to stay with me as long as she could. And I vow to do the same for you...Alice. 

[gender-luster]

absolutely obsessed with this, honestly

Age of Hook

Some headcanons regarding Killian's age.

Assuming he's physically around the same age as Emma and the Charmings (Colin is actually younger than JMo).

He was probably in the navy for a few years before Liam's death.

He was probably a pirate at least a year or so before he met Milah.

Based on Baelfire's aging Killian and Milah were together around 4 years. Milah was killed while Baelfire was in London as Hook was already in Neverland when he arrived.

Hook was present in the Enchanted Forest at least a year before the Dark Curse. Unclear when he permanently left Neverland.

Emma breaks the curse sometime after Valentine's Day 2012 (Skin Deep) and ends up in the Enchanted Forest shortly after.

They find Neal in New York and Hook stabs Rumple sometime after Aug 15, 2012 (Henry is 11).

It's fall or winter when they get back from Neverland.

It's winter or early spring a year later, 2013-2014 when they fight Zelena.

The S4 period of peace occurs during winter 2014-2015 (Rumple was in the hospital around Christmas)

The Camelot weeks occur before Aug 15, 2015 (Henry is 13)

It's winter again when Gideon sends Hook away in S6.

S7 Storybrooke is set around 4 years after S6 (Robin II is 5, Neal II is a child).

Henry spends a few years in the New Enchanted Forest before meeting Ella and being reunited with his moms and Hook. Unclear whether time has passed in Storybrooke.

Wish!Hook is 28 years older since the Wish Realm had no dark curse. Alice is born not too long after Regina's defeat.

His heart was cursed when Alice was around 12.

Wish!Hook spends at least 8 years (Lucy's birth and childhood) with Henry and Regina in the New Enchanted Forest between being de-aged and being sent back in time by the new curse.

Chess Allusions: White Knight

Currently continuing a draft of some chess allusions in ouat season 7 and by god, the amount of times Gothel pulls an "always my white knight" as Eloise Gardener on Rogers (4-5 times but that's plenty). She knows about his history of wanting to protect loved ones and how he gave Alice a white knight chess piece to remind his daughter of how he'd do his best to save her. Gothel does her best to twist his good intentions into ones that suit hers, as if he can't do anything but be wrapped around her finger, but she's really the wolf in sheep's clothing. It sends chills down my spine as Rogers doesn't even know he's being misled, believing in her through the hazy connection he has for Alice, "her white knight".

Alice, on the other hand, never called her papa a white knight, as much as he wanted to represent that for her. If anything, when Killian and Alice reunited in the future, she gave back the white knight chess piece to him through Ella, implying that she's grown and claiming that she didn't need a reminder anymore because she knew they'd be together again someday, that he'd find a real cure in a way she couldn't.

I like the difference in how the same ideas are used, depending on the intentions of the one wanting to display something; i.e. a heartfelt promise, a gentle reminder of trust, or most blatantly, a manipulative deceit.

OUAT Week Day 3: Favorite Origin Story

My mother used to sing it to me and my brother. And then she died, and my father abandoned us, and I didn't hear anything like it again. That's how I know a lullaby.

It's a longstanding theatrical tradition for Captain Hook, in productions of Peter Pan, to be played by the very same actor who plays George Darling. This duality between fairytale villain and father figure is realized in Once Upon a Time's seventh season, where we discover the backstory of the Wish Realm's version of Killian Jones.

Killian's abandonment at his father's hands was revealed to be the core trauma at the heart of his character in Season 2, and we saw said abandonment as well as Killian's consequent murder of his father and abandonment of Liam II play out in Season 5, but it's only in Season 7 that we learn anything about his mother. In contrast to Brennan, the elder Alice stayed with Killian and Liam "as long as she could," and it is ultimately her example, not his father's, that Killian chooses to follow when faced with a choice between his revenge and his newborn child.

Killian was set up as a failed father figure back in 2.22 "And Straight On 'til Morning," when he bonded with Baelfire, even lamenting his own father's abandonment of him to the boy, only to turn around and sell him to Pan. Just like his father, and just like the "crocodile" he loathed so much, he put himself and his desires above a child who needed him. Thus, Killian remembering his mother's example and choosing baby Alice over his life as a vengeful pirate in 7.07 "Eloise Gardener," and his subsequent moment of weakness in 7.13 "Knightfall" where he makes the opposite choice and is severed him from her entirely, is the final piece of the puzzle of his origin story, the beginning of his slow, difficult, yet necessary crawl out of villainy and into becoming a truly good father.

OUAT's choice to bring back Wish Hook in Season 7 was arguably a rather silly and contrived way to keep Colin O'Donoghue on the show without having to break up Storybrooke Hook and Emma. But Wish Killian's backstory as a father who loved and lost his daughter due to his own mistakes and is trying to get back to her more than justifies the contrivance, and establishes him as a clever adaptation of the Captain Hook/George Darling dichotomy and, what's more, as a great character in his own right.
