Summary
Set in Season 1. Regina already discovered that Emma was the Savior and was supposedly destined to break her curse. The Evil Queen and the Savior couldn't be companionable, could they? It seemed to defy all odds.
" Emma swallowed nervously. 'I don't really know what's happening between us, but I don't want to screw this up.' Regina placed the knuckle of her index finger under her chin and lifted her gaze, smiling down at her with a small genuine smile. She leaned closer to parted pink lips, smelling the alcohol on her breath.
'Stop talking, Miss Swan.' "

Summary
Emma once believed the price of her magic, of being the savior, was that she didn’t get moments, that she didn’t get to live the boring, monotonous life with routines that she secretly craved. This belief now debunked, she wonders if maybe the curse of her magic is never truly being satisfied. Because when has Emma ever felt completely content? When has she ever really felt like she had everything she could ask for? Every time she thought she had what she wanted, she soon felt like there was a missing piece.
Feeling insignificant and bored with life as the sheriff of a Storybrooke that no longer needs a savior, is it time Emma searched elsewhere for the elusive more she seeks from life?
(or, the one with gal pals and moochdocking adventures. it's a road trip fic, y'all)

Summary
“You would do that for me?”
“I am very grateful for you choosing to stay here. For allowing me access to Henry.” She paused as she passed the freshened drink. “Besides,” Emma watched as Regina sipped from her glass, “I’m nice now,” the older woman smirked at her.
This is a slow burn SwanQueen starting at 4a but strays from the canon. (Previously posted under the title 'Moments').

Summary
Regina rolls a starry blue marble between her fingers and thinks of the light going out of her mother’s eyes as she held her on the dusty floor of Gold’s shop.
Is this where it all ends?
All of their corruption and creation and planning, years—decades—of meticulous threads woven together, lives stolen and ended and begotten. All for this:
Cora, dead by her daughter’s unwitting hand. Rumpelstiltskin, dead by the dagger that made him. Baelfire, the boy for whom all this had been given, dead protecting the father who abandoned him, bleeding out in the arms of the Savior as the letters on the cursed blade, and then the blade itself, fade into nothingness.
**
[S2 canon divergence: Rumpelstiltskin dies before Cora can use the dagger in "The Miller's Daughter." Neal dies protecting him.]
After the events in Gold's pawnshop bring up best-forgotten memories, Henry, Emma, and Regina struggle to come to terms with each other. Meanwhile, a mysterious prankster wreaks havoc across Storybrooke.

Summary
“Besides,” Regina says, looking from her son, 400 miles away, to his other mother sitting beside her on the couch in the study, “I’ve already gotten us a room.”
“You have?”
“Oh, good!” Henry looks relieved. “I mean, the email about graduation stuff said finding rooms can be tricky. So, that’s good, Mom.” He beams at them both.
“Wait. A room? As in, singular?” Emma questions.
“Well,” Regina frowns, “yes. It was really all they had left, and I wanted to stay at the Charles since it’s right there in Cambridge and close to campus.”
“That’s great, mom!” Henry repeats, but Emma is still staring at the woman sitting next to her.
“So, like,” she licks her lips. “We’re going to be … roommates?”
Regina glares at her, but then sighs when Henry laughs from the screen. “Yes, Miss Swan,” she agrees finally. “Roommates. For two nights only. Do you think you can handle that?”
