Summary
Written for Swan Queen Week Day 6: Trapped in an AU.
Henry blinks at them. “Mom. Mom...Mom,” he says, eyes flickering from Emma to Regina to his future mothers, who are still holding hands. “Mom. Something you want to tell me?”
“They’re from the future,” Regina says.
“They’re married,” Emma says. “To each other.” She’s still standing in the middle of the room, utterly discombobulated.
Henry rolls his eyes. “Duh. Can I go get my Playstation?”

I've got you deep in the heart of me by coalitiongirl for queenssaviour

Summary
Soulmates are for the privileged few, the good, the fairytale heroes. Soulmates are for love stories, and Regina’s love has only ended in pain and loss. A soulmate would be a waste of her ability, and she persuades herself of it so vehemently that she can stand naked in her castle, surrounded by mirrors, and pretend that she isn’t searching for a tattoo on her skin anymore.
She casts a curse, rides to a castle to find a savior, and wakes up in a strange house that is to be home from now on. She’s won, and it’s never felt so fitting.
When she dresses for her first day as mayor, she sees it: an intricate mark against the tan skin just beneath her breast, shaped like a sunburst with a web woven through it. It’s a new world, it’s a new destiny, and she touches her mark and is as afraid as she is wondering.
Written for Swan Queen Week Day 4: Soulmate AU.

Summary
Emma reaches for Regina’s hand again, but Regina’s moved her ice cream to it instead. “Though, I mean, if I were into women, your mom would definitely be first on my list,” Emma tells Henry.
“I’m flattered,” Regina says dryly.
Her voice sounds a little strained, and Emma tries to lighten the tone. She hadn’t thought Regina would be uncomfortable with the idea of…well, Henry has two mommies, but the Enchanted Forest had seemed a little regressive. “What? Are you saying I’m not on your list?”
“Yes, Emma,” Regina says, and she barks out a choked laugh of her own. “If I were into women, you would definitely be on my list.”
[A year in the lives of Emma and Regina, falling in love all the way through and doing every bit of it backwards.]

Summary
Enemies with benefits. That's all this is, right? It's not like Emma's going to hook up with Regina a few times and promptly fall in love with her, no matter what anyone else seems to think. Probably. Maybe.
