Summary
"You have expensive tastes, Mr. Robin Hood."
Regina, The Evil Queen, thought the plan was relatively simple. Get King Lear of Sherwood the thief, Robin Hood, and receive Snow White, the rebel princess, in return. She hadn't considered that keeping the thief in her custody might change anything. And it didn't. Not until he's tasked to kill her, at least.
Robin Hood was a man with morals of steel. And yet, he found himself tested by a woman with no morals to speak of.

Summary
After the final battle, Emma Swan has everything she once thought she wanted—her son, her parents, a fragile truce with Regina. But peace feels hollow, her life a performance. The ache she's buried grows unbearable—a feeling that her story ended somewhere before she got to live it.
When a cosmic event and a brass compass sends her back to Storybrooke before the curse broke, Emma finds herself in her own past with future memories intact. As Sheriff again, she navigates familiar faces who don't recognize the changes in her, especially Regina, who grows increasingly suspicious of Emma's altered behavior and inexplicable knowledge.
The question isn't "How do I get back?" but "What was I missing?" As Emma begins to see Regina through different eyes—not as the antagonist she once feared, but as the woman she might have always loved—she walks a dangerous line between preserving the timeline and following her heart.But with Regina's suspicions mounting and Gold's cryptic interest in her situation, Emma must decide: protect the future she knows, or risk everything for a chance to rewrite their story?
Time travel's a bitch. So is falling in love all over again. SQ [ACTIVE WIP 2x week updates]
