Some questions I had while watching 1x21

[bm-shipper.livejournal.com]

Please bear with me, I might have to re-watch the episode since it was 4.30 a.m. where I was when I finally watched it... but there were some things that just didn't make much sense to me...

First, Jefferson... Where has he been and where did he come from all of a sudden? And why did Regina even know he was there again? I mean, he was in his house, right? He said something along the lines of "You know I was watching her" (his daugher Paige/Grace of course) and so she could get in "contact" with him... and if he was in his house the whole time, why making it so complicated by placing the card? Why not just showing up at his house?
And he can leave the house since Emma is there, right? That kind of "broke the curse" of him being trapped in this house the whole time?

Also... I can be wrong, but didn't Regina say to Jefferson she wants to go to Fairytale Land to get rid of Emma? to get rid of her problem? How exactly would she have wanted to do that? It sounded like she wanted to kill Emma... and she wanted to go back to do so... Fine, but I mean, if she would have done that (and like I said, TO ME it sounded like that), it would have meant she would have killed Henry all along, right? No Emma, no Henry... or wasn't she thinking this far?

And then Henry eating the pie... I actually saw that totally coming the minute Regina "took" the apple "back"... I simply KNEW Henry would eat the apple, but I was thinking he might do it by accident... like seeing the cake and being all a kid like "Yummie, Cake"... I didn't think he would do it on purpose, but I think it was maybe the "right thing" to do? I don't really know... I mean at SOME point Emma just HAS TO open up to the idea that not everything is black or white...

And what else proof does she need? First, there was "just" Henry telling this story, but more and more people "turned to her"... are they ALL crazy? Especially August and Jefferson? What benefit would they have by telling her something like that? Yes, I GET that this all sounds strange and unbelievable, but more and more people turning up and KNOWING about the curse...

And what about Graham? Is it REALLY Graham that will come back next episode or "just" the huntsman? because if it's Graham, he's another person that KNOWS about the curse and knows about Regina... Emma  can't close her eyes from reality forever... especially not when her son is in danger of dying, right? SOMETHING has to happen...

(I don't think Henry really dies, though... I think, that's the "red herring" for the finale - we know SOMEONE will die, and now the promo makes everyone think it could be Henry... or August for that matter... if it's one of the 2, my money's on August...)

Also... why did Regina KNOW who Emma is all of a sudden? I thought she didn't know before and just because of this dream she does? This is all pretty strange and I hope, we'll get an explanation for it...

By the way, I was totally gushing over Sebastian Stand... Man, this guy is a hot bastard, and I couldn't have been in the same room with him without jumping him *coughs* Yes, I'm that shallow XD

FIC: Wonders [OUAT - Jefferson/Emma - NC17]

[alyxbradford.livejournal.com]

Title: Wonders
Author: alyxbradford
Pairing: Jefferson/Emma
Rating: Mature/NC17
Warnings: explicit sex, bondage, knifeplay
WC: 5776
Summary: Jefferson makes a second attempt at getting Emma to believe in his story, the curse, and herself. When the mounting tension between them finally becomes too powerful to ignore, he finds a darkly seductive way to prove to her that she can trust him.
Snippet: His fingers are feather-light against her skin, and it seems impossible to believe this reverent touch comes from the same man who was wrestling her to the ground five minutes ago. "You have such power in you, if you were just willing to harness it. You have magic – and I have knowledge. I could help."
