#prince squared

I will use "#the season 7 rewrite" and "#the next gen verse" for my stuff, "#other people's ideas" for other people's stuff, and "#adjacent" for stuff that won't really fit into either category.

Intro:

This is a queer friendly space. This AU includes trans and non-binary characters, characters in same-sex relationships, aromantic and asexual characters, and queer M/F presenting pairings. If this bothers you, leave and come back when you're a better person.

I try to keep things fairly neutral when it comes to characters, but I will say, shade will be thrown at Rumple, Zelena, and Neal Cassidy/Baelfire. I will ALWAYS tag "anti [character]" if a post needs it. Block accordingly.

Since shipping is...what it is, I decided to lay out all the main ships that show up in this AU, either Next Gen ships or canon. Don't like, don't read ect, ect

Captain Swan

Snowing

Rumbelle (potentially past, I'm workshopping a bit)

Belle X OC (potentially)

Outlaw Queen (past for a bit, but Robin's coming back, don't worry)

Glass Believer

Curious Archer/Mad Archer

Cygnet Scholar (Hope Swan-Jones x Gideon Gold)

OUAT: The Next Generation

Neal Charming and Prince Phillip “PJ” II’s Story (developed with @queen-of-the-merry-men)

Neal and Phillip were high school sweethearts, in love. But after graduation, they went to different colleges with Neal going all the way to Connecticut to escape the drama of the U.R. He ends up staying there, gets married and travels with his family visiting him until his husband dies. He returns to Storybrooke to take up a professor job at Storybrooke College and be with family to find PJ still there.

PJ went to a school in Farmington but did return to Storybrooke. He was briefly married and had a daughter, Aurora “Rory” but the mom took off. He’s now a doctor.

Teenaged Philip II (PJ) and Jake Charming have been friends from birth, their moms were friends, they attended the same Mommy and Me group, and lived only a few streets apart. They were best friends all through school, and when they turned 15 they started dating each other. They broke up when they got to college, both were miserable for their few months apart, Philip took the jump and transferred to the same school as Jake, telling him that he was “all in”.

Jake went on to study literature and creative writing at Yale, while PJ studied medicine, after both graduating and Jake published his first science fiction novel, he turned it into a trilogy which got adapted into a movie. With the new hit of fame both him and Philip were relieved that United Realms was hidden from outsiders, it became their utopia.

The two marry in a ceremony in Storybrooke and move to an apartment in Hyperion Heights, PJ continuing to be a doctor at the hospital, while Jake continues writing science fiction novels and screenplays. They find the perfect house by accident, driving past it on the way to visit Jake’s side of the family. They move in there and find their lives nearly complete.

After a couple of years they try IVF and are successful, giving them a baby girl, who they named Mia Rose Charming.

A couple of years after Mia was born they decided to try again, this time they had a son, Adam Philip Charming, it took them a while to get used to the juggle of having two kids, Jake made story books for and based on the two of them. When Mia went to school Jake and PJ decided to try for their last child, naming him Luke Henry.
