Captain Swan one-shots and drabbles. Ratings vary. (Changed penname, was EuphoriaLily)

A series of one-shots centred around Captain Swan and the Royal Family.

Tell Henry the truth, or hire some guy to pose as his dad for a day. She chooses the lie, not knowing she'll change three lives forever; hers, her son's, and the stranger who finds he doesn't want just one day. He wants forever.

A one-shot series, following our favorite crime-fighting duo as they learn to care. Inspired by PatRose's picture, "Ten Ways To Love". Epic friendship. No slash.

'A boy with a shock of unruly, raven-black hair and ragged clothes hung from a branch, stretching an arm out for another apple. The pockets of his overlarge coat were already bogged down with stolen fruit hindering his rather impressive efforts. ' True love has a funny way of working things out even when one party is a princess and the other is a boy from the streets.

Fluffy Captain Swan one-shots based off sneak peaks and episodes from Season 4. Some one-shots were previously posted under my other story, Chinese Food and a Movie. All chapters are rated T unless otherwise noted at the beginning of the chapter. Disclaimer: I own nothing. *Note: I'm posting under my other story, That's What Girlfriends Do, during the winter hiatus.

What if the Castle crew had met in the First Grade? How would their lives have been different? Would Castle and Beckett have gotten along as children? How would the path their lives took have been different. These will all be answered (in theory) when you read this Fic. This is my first shot at Castle FF so be kind.

Hook returns from the Enchanted Forest to find Emma in New York, hoping to jog her memory and take up from where they left off, to find that his heart's First Mate has added to his "crew", his parting gift given to her before the whole missing year. But this is no ordinary little gift. It comes with a mission... Rated T for possible foul language and some sexual contexts.

A collection of one shots mostly centered around Steve and Danny. No slash, just a combination of my two favorite things: bromance and whump. Maybe some humor thrown in depending on the story. I own nothing but the plot I came up with. Enjoy! Each chapter is its own stand alone story.

Emma misses Netflix and Chinese take-out. But there isn't any in the Enchanted Forest. Or is there?

David tries to teach Killian how to drive stick gear. Who needs more patience, the air-headed prince or the sassy, unruly pirate? One shot, Captain Charming fun.(WARNING: IF YOU'RE PUT OFF BY THE SUMMARY, THEN DON'T READ THE FIC. THANKS!)

Maya: an untranslatable Sanskrit word meaning, essentially, the belief (often unfortunate) that the symbol of something is the same as the thing itself. Captain Swan, Hook/Emma. AU, no magic. If Killian hadn't had 300 years between Milah's death and meeting Emma.

Emma and Killian take Henry to Disneyland and the pirate gets to experience the world outside of Storybrooke and encounter many characters and rides along the way. Slight language.

My take on that scene in "The Queen Is Dead" where Hook knocks David out cold. What if David had seen Hook coming and was able to trap him? What if Hook convinced him that he had valuble information on Cora that he'd be willing to trade...for a price (in this version, Snow couldn't hear what Regina and Cora were planning before she went to find David. Slash. Don't like, don't read)

Modern!AU, Canon-Compliant. The loss of their child shatters the boundaries of her reality but that's not enough to break them apart. This is a world where love is incontrovertible, and truth is subjective. They've fought through time and odds to be together, and they'll stay that way as long as one of them is able to keep fighting.

Emma and Killian bond over scars... Okay summary sucks just click read i promise its better than it sounds. One Shot

Emma stops Hook from doing something unforgiveable. A look into Hook's mind set. A first kiss.

Things between Emma and Killian are complicated, but when Killian finds out that Emma owes Rumple a favor, he's terrified of losing her the way that he lost Milah. What happens when he learns the truth about Emma's heart? (A CS First Kiss oneshot)

August and Killian spend Christmas morning with their granddaughter. (Wooden Swan and Red Hook)

Captain Swan, Emma/Hook In which Hook attempts to give Emma Christmas gifts and fails miserably.

She taught him to love again, to trust that hearts were not always taken away and broken. He showed her the world she had always dreamed of and was her true love's kiss. Now, his heart needed her, but the sea was calling her. A Captain Hook/Ariel fic.

"The price for getting what you want, is getting what once you wanted." After three hundred years plotting his revenge, Killian begins to wonder just who it is he's trying to kill. After eight years of telling herself she's put it all behind her, Emma begins to wonder just who it is she's trying to fool. Captain Swan.

Killian and Emma's wedding.

The rain was never this bad in Washington. The rain there didn't make him forget about the fact that the triptocaine wasn't his only addiction. Blayden oneshot. Rated for language.

"She had always tried to be the strong one for them, but they had been her foundation." BeckettxRyanxEsposito friendship!fic. Some strong language and Caskett. Reuploaded because something went wrong the first time.

A sequential set of one shots illustrating the slow yet steady evolution of Lieutenant Carter Blake and Agent Norman Jayden's relationship into one that's more than just sexual.

Dear god help me, I'm putting up a Blayden fic. It's very silly and has a lot of bad words in it. Also, bad sex. Also, I am already giggling over the terrible pun of the title.

Steve and Danno are married. Kind of. In which there are speculations as to the marital status of Steve and Danny that they deny but are unhelpfully contributing to.
