    Summary

    Emma almost has everything. She's got a wonderful son, a beautiful, tender friend and co-parent, and a family she can count on. It was all she ever dreamed of, once upon a time. At times, she thinks she finally understands what authors mean when they end their story with: they lived happily ever after.

    But the feeling always leaves her by the morning. Sometimes she thinks her real happy ending has disappeared somewhere in the past, somewhere in between the curses and forgotten memories. And now it is only a possibility lost to her memories.

    If she could go back...

    (or in other words, season 6 emma goes back in time and accidentally makes season 1 regina fall in love with her.)

    Summary

    Ann Walker is a teenager. Painfully shy, socially isolated, and awkward with people outside of her immediate family. Her older sister Elizabeth feels that it's time that Ann was bought out of herself a little, and in doing so accidentally introduces Ann to their utterly charming, endlessly fascinating, and casually domineering neighbour, Miss Anne Lister of Shibden Hall.

    Now extended, so I can include the 'Monstrous, pedantic and disagreeable girl' passage.

    Summary

    “Yes but what do you want?” Elizabeth said, her tone still giving away her surprise at Ann’s change of mind.
    “I can’t have what I want. So.” Ann said in reply, thinking more so that might be the case. Especially now that it seemed like Anne wasn’t about to drop in to save her again.
    “What do you want? Ann?”
    “To fit in. And not be a nuisance.” Which was the usual reply that she gave.
    “That isn’t what you meant. What do you want? Ann.”

    Ann couldn’t tell Elizabeth then. And she was sure that her sister knew that. So she was sure that the reason that she found herself alone in the woods near Fortrose was only to get the answer out of her properly. Although, Ann had no idea how she was going to take the answer.

    Summary

    If she squints enough, displacing the sheen of wetness in front of her eyes that she rejects so very thoroughly, she can almost see the outlines of the photographs that lined the wall. Poof. A family won, a family lost.

    [Part 3 of a 3-part post-curse AU that mostly ignores Season 2 developments; see the notes for details.]
