There are some things in every woman’s life that she just knows.  Things like if it’s going to be a good hair day if certain pants make your butt look big, or when the only thing that will hit the spot is a piece of chocolate. There are also certain things about a woman’s body that you know when they are off and when you need to start asking yourself questions and no longer blame the fact that they are off because of the magical disarray that is your life.  Questions like how long have things been off?  Or how careful have you and your pirate husband been about protection?  And most importantly asking yourself when you are going to get the courage up to just take a test and get the answers to said questions?  All of this and more were running through her mind as Emma showered, dressed, kissed her boys goodbye and drove away from their home by the sea. When Emma opened the door to Granny’s the smell of frying bacon and percolating coffee hit her in the face, causing her throat to tighten and her stomach to roll.  “Breathe deeply, in through the mouth, slowly out through the nose,” she murmured softly as she made her way to the back booth where her mother waited for her.   "Get something into your stomach fast,“ she continued just as she reached her mom and baby brother and slid across the seat. “Emma, I’m so happy you could meet me this morning.” “Sure, mom, I’m starving where’s the waitress?”

Happy, Happy Birthday to @imagnifika - I wanted to mail your gifts but with everything as it is, I was afraid you’d never get them so… I ‘borrowed’ one of your amazing edits and wrote you a special story.  Enjoy - 

Hey everyone! So, I’ve got some weird news - but good weird, I promise. I’m officially making the jump from fanfic to publishing. WAIT, don’t run away! And please read to the end before yelling at me.

I’ve been a diehard CS’er for years, and I refused to take this step until I had a solid way to keep my stories in the fandom, with you! - without violating publishing rights or making you download anything just to reread.

I’m starting with Irish Betrothal, which means I’ll be removing it from AO3 and FFN. I know it’s short notice, but you have until the end of the month, 8/31/25 to download if you want your own copy.

That said, if you’d rather skip the download hassle - I’ve created a cozy little corner where you can reread to your heart’s content. There’s a small layer of privacy to protect everyone involved, so I can’t share it publicly.

👉 Just DM me (rylieblu) on Discord and mention this post.. or just say “IB” or something and that's it.

Updated 12/30/2022 for New Year’s 2023

It’s been three years since I put together this little ficlit together. But every year, I pull it out and add to it. Who knows, maybe someday I’ll have a complete story.

Life has changed a lot for many of us since OUAT ended. While I’ve not been writing (or really even reading) fanfics, I haven’t said goodbye to writing, though. I’ve been writing small town mystery romance. My books are available in all Estores. You can check them out here.  Swan Harbor Books 

Some of my friends that I met through our love for CS @imagnifika  @duathadun @lfh1226-linda and Maggie for hanging with me through it all. 

My hope is for 2023 to bring peace and happiness to all. Remember - without hope, there would be no happy endings. 

This ficlet follows canon from my Season 7 Canon divergent -- A Happy Ending Begins with Hope. It can be found on AO3, FF, and tumblr with gifs. 

Summary: Hope has a date.  How will her family react?

Hope’s New Year’s Date

Words ~ 1500

During Hope Jones’ young life, Storybrooke had gone through many changes, and none more so than around the holidays. They had town Easter Egg hunts, fireworks and picnics in July, bonfires for Halloween, family feasts at Thanksgiving, and caroling at Christmas. 

Hope had memories of each one of them. However, there was one event that she had been looking forward to for years, and that was the Snowflake Ball. 

Held every New Year’s Eve, the Snowflake Ball was only for those who were sixteen and above. Everyone brought out their formal clothes and danced until midnight. And, if she was lucky, the man she was crushing on would ask her to go with him. 

Gideon Gold was ahead of her in school and so dreamy, he made her head spin. Plus, when he looked at her with his chocolate brown eyes, her heart raced, and her breath stuck in her throat. 

She’d been crushing on him for years, but it had only been in the last six months that he’d given her the time of day. Did that mean that he was seeing her as more than a girl? If so, was it possible she’d finally get to spend the evening with him — as his date? 

Canon Divergence from Season 6 ~ 15 After saving Agrabah, Emma saves Killian and on the way back to Storybrooke a question is popped and a special visitor arrives to see Killian's special day.
