Summary
Just days after Emma announces her engagement, Regina is found in her vault without any memory of the past five seasons. The newly returned Mayor Mills is caustic, scheming, unnerved by her own future, and loves only Henry– and she might see more clearly than anyone around her.
Then again, that might not be for the best.

Summary
Emma looks away because she just can’t go here tonight and Regina shuts the water off, closes the dishwasher. “Get off my counter, Miss Swan,” she orders coolly, in that voice that she uses anytime they edge toward that something they sometimes get near.
A something that will remain nameless, thank you.
It's a few days before Christmas. Emma has no idea what to get Regina but Regina? Yeah, she pretty much nails it.

Summary
“Do you think she's pretty?”
“Yes. I think she’s really… pretty,” Emma coughs. Hopes she can pass off her tomato face as a heat symptom.
“And smart?”
“Mhmm.”
“And nice?”
“Kid, if this is your way of interrogating me for your mom’s friendship, then yes. I think she's super pretty, super smart, and super nice. Sometimes,” Emma adds as an afterthought. Because Regina can still be a Super Bitch. “She’s also a total MILF, so there's that.”
Henry wrinkles his nose. “What's a MILF?”
“Madame I’d like to friend.”
“Oh.”
Or -- In the dead of night, Emma stumbles across a lonely boy and his mom. The neighbor AU.

Summary
That voice is not one Regina ever thought she would hear again. She has imagined it so many times over the years—she must simply be imagining it, now. That has to be it. Regina goes absolutely still, like prey. A primal instinct she hasn’t felt from herself since Mother was alive. Beside her, Henry grabs at her arm. “Okay, Mom, don’t be mad, please—” he quickly whispers.
Before Regina can strangle her son, or move, or run out of the cabin, Emma Swan walks into the room and jolts to a stop at the sight of them. “Oh,” she breathes out. “Fuck.”
