Reaction to tonight's episode

[swanprincess]

Alright, I get that you want to talk about what just happened, but there's.. a lot going on right now.

Yes, Neal is.. he's not here, but Storybrooke is on the brink of being destroyed. And as much as I may love Neal, Henry.. This town? My family? They're top priority right now.

Take care of Henry first.

It's what I want. I'll be fine.

[Okay, probably not. But he's going to keep that front up.]

[swanprincess]

Of course I'll take care of Henry.

But Neal.. you were shot in the chest and then dragged through a portal to who the hell knows where.

[So much for not really talking about it, aye Emma..]

[wegotlucky]

[He shakes his head carefully.]

I'm fine. Really.

You found me once already. I know you can do it again.

[ there's really not a whole lot of reassuring truth he can say at the moment, so: ]

It'll work out.

[swanprincess]

How exactly is this going to work out?

You got shot and fell through a portal. Owen and Tamara have the diamond and have gone missing. And now I have to explain to Henry what's happened to his father and all the while save Storybrooke from being destroyed.

So, again. How exactly is this going to work out?

[ he reaches out to take her hand ]

You made it through this world all on your own. You made it through jail on your own. You saved an entire world on your own and broke a thirty year old curse while doing it. The kid here says you even slayed a dragon on your own.

You can do this. [ he tries to smile ] No matter what happens to me, you're not alone anymore Emma. You've got family there. Real family.
