And regardless of how you may or may not have liked Neal, he was a huge part of Emma's life, and I found it extremely out of character that she would be snogging Hook out in the open mere days after he DIED IN HER ARMS.

However, she was NOT dating Neal while he died, they never got back together. It's not like she kissed someone soon after her boyfriend died, they were over. She cared about thim of course, and he's the father of Henry, but that's it. Emma is single, and Hook keeps saving her, and being there for her everytime she needed it. Also, giving up his ship for her is a big deal considering that 'she' was the most important thing in his life. I would have been touched too if I was Emma.

But of course, you have the right to think differently.

For me, it's less about whether or not Emma and Neal got back together and more that she never had time to truly process her feelings for him. Like, when he fell through the portal to FTL after being shot, Emma told him she loved him, but when they were in Neverland, she admitted how much easier it would have been if he had died. I didn't care that much about whether or not they got back together (I'm actually a Mad Swan shipper lol XD) but I wanted her to have real closure. And when she didn't get it, I felt like it was out of character to still have all these conflicting feelings while jumping into Hook's arms.

But yeah, as you say, differing opinions and all. Hook's a fairly polarizing character, I've noticed, which is why like discussing him :)

She had time to talk to Neal at the hospital soon after "he got back". In my opinion, that's where they had a real closure.

I loved Jefferson/the Mad Hatter (and I hope he'll come back in an episode or two in the next season) but I don't think Emma could have ever considered dating him, mostly for what he did to her and MM. So, I guess I feel the same toweard Mad Swan that what you feel toward Captain Swan! lol I guess it's a matter of preference.

Thank you, Alexia!

Haha, I guess you agree with me, but of course people can have similar or different point of view/preferences :)
