I also think their personalities match. They would be silly and funny, and Neal would make Killian laugh freely with ridiculous jokes and he also would get really exasperated every single time (because he might have chosen someone worse than himself). They would compete every moment, for no reason, like two children. They would be a mess and they would be really wonderful while being a fucking mess.

they focused on the counting thingys but baelfire, even after his argument with hook, what does he draw ?

first of all, right there in bold, the port and starboard thing killian carves, he’s not even on a ship and he left it there for prosperity, plus what i think its the view from the front of the jolly roger on top of that !

and my absolute favourite, he drew the hook !

i’m just, it made me so emotional when i noticed it and i wished, i fucking wished the writers had more balls to include that in the episode, maybe see killian get visibly emotional - we didn’t need much, just a prolonged, longing look at the drawings and then maybe not include the love triangle thing cause you know, it’s absolutely ridonkulous !

Summary: “So — you remembered.”

Notes:  ...someone tempted me. And I have zero self-control LOL, so here’s some Hookfire. This is a follow-up to the first one-shot in this series, which obviously provides the context. But basically it's Neal digging up, per Emma's request, his old habit of telling the stories behind constellations to help them fall asleep. Those stories he learned from Hook, who is listening and has a bit of a "WTF" moment. So this fic has them talk about it as they are leaving Neverland.

Killian hasn’t exactly been keeping a close eye on him, but — the urge to ask has been lurking in the back of his mind in every quiet moment, all too insisting for what is supposed to be such an irrelevant matter.

So he remembered one of his stories, what of it?

It is surprising, considering that they didn’t leave each other on anywhere nearly amicable terms, so even if he somehow remembers it, after a couple of centuries, why would he so easily recall it, like it’s a fond memory?

It’s — it’s curiosity, that’s what it is.

Regardless of that curiosity, though, they haven’t spent much time around each other, not without more important matters to tend to, so the occasion to ask doesn’t present itself until Baelfire makes his way to the deck, leaning over the edge to take a look at the island that they are leaving behind.

(Killian’s legs twitch, and he can still hear himself shout at him that if he were to fall overboard he’d leave him for the fish to dine with.)

“Fucking finally,” Baelfire breathes out, turning back towards him. He walks closer. “Do you need me to take a turn?”

It takes a few moments for Killian to even realize that he’s talking about taking the helm, but then he’s quick to shake his head. “No, I got it.”

“Alright,” Baelfire shrugs, moving as if to walk past him.

Which would probably be the right moment to —

“So — you remembered.”

Summary:  Five times Hook messes up the whole stepfather thing. (And one time he sets things right. Or tries to.)

Notes:  So. guess who was having Hookfire feels, for a change? This contains some Hook&Henry (although it's not exactly about the two of them per se), and mentions of Emma/Hook when it appears in canon, because the story follows the canonical events up until the s3 finale, but they eventually break up amicably. S4 is completely ignored, let's pretend like there was no Elsa at the end and Marian was actually Marian (which doesn't even come up in this fic because Hook couldn't care less about Regina's love life, but still). Enjoy!

The first time is massive and messy, the situation spinning out of control before he can even realize how quickly they are headed for destruction.

Baelfire wasn’t meant to find out about Milah, not like this, not when he had the time to get riled up before Killian could even get a word in, attempt to explain that he has loved his mother dearly and never meant to hurt either one of them.

(If he’s being honest, though, he doesn’t even know when he planned to tell him. Things were way too serene for him to risk shattering it all.)

Baelfire yells and cries, spits out venom like he’s suddenly become his father’s son, and Killian’s edges are way too sharp for him not to retaliate.

He won’t be abandoned, he won’t be rejected. If Baelfire doesn’t care for him enough to listen, Killian doesn’t care enough to protect him against his own selfish interests. That is how it works, a pirate’s life for you, my boy.

You don’t point a sword at your captain’s throat and expect to survive to tell the tale.

(Still, he begs to be given a second chance, up until the last minute. He begs, and he hopes, and it gets thrown in his face.)

(It’s no matter, he tells himself, he needs Baelfire even less than Baelfire needs him.)

  The second time, he somehow manages to sink even lower.

Oooooh!  I’m oblivious.  I knew nothing of CaptainFire shipping.   I am intrigued.  And oddly pleased.   It seems so much nicer than Hook fans who think Baelfire is the anti-Christ or son of The Devil.
