Once upon a time: Emma & Hook
Hey Guys,
not long and Once upon a time is on again and i would lie if i would say i wouldn’t wait for it. I just hope this part will be better than the last. But that is not the theme today. Today i am talking about Emma and Hook or Killian… i mix the names, so don’t be confused.
Let’s start with the truth you already know, i am not a big fan of Emma. She is so much like her parents and good and judging… and yeah i think i talk enough about it. The reason i write about is Hook. Hook is one of my favorites, he is a good guy, who wants to act like a bad guy. The only time we see him really ‘bad’ is when he gets his hand back. But let’s talk more about him.
Killian Hook is coming in season two and when we first get to know him, we see him changing sides like clothes or it seems like it. I disagree with that, but if you take Killian clothes it seems to fit perfectly. When did we see Killian in different clothes? If i forget an outfit write me. So he changend three times.
Becoming a pirate
The first time is in the past. When we see him becoming a pirate after the death of his brother. This was the first big change in his life. He was a good guy, who believed in the crown, he believed he was working for the good guys and his brother always talk about him like the best man of the world. But he discovered that he was wrong, when he lost his brother. Without his believes and his brother, he lost hold. He stopped believing in the good of world. So he becomes a pirate.
Now we are coming to a point were some people will say that Rumple and his wife changed him. But i don’t agree with that. Everything he did this time was what pirate would do. He was full of hate long before he lost Rumples wife. They are points on his long way but it did changed his believings, his charcter.
Rumples son on the other hand, could have changed everthing for him. Because for him he would have done anything, when Neal would have excapted him. But Neal left and Killian has still the pirate, with just a new hole in him.
Emma and his believes
The second real change is Emma. Actually i don’t get why he is extreme into her from the beginning – don’t get me wrong, i love them both together. Later it is more understandable, when we really see them interact. Because for him she is hero, a good person, a mother, who would do anything for her son and pure magic. She is what makes again believe in the good of the world. But what is really important in that relationship is. He has that high picture about her, but he sees also all her flaws and he loves them too.
Emma makes him want to do the right things. He is ready to stand back, so she and Neal can be together. This is sweet and shows how much he respect Emma and Neal.
And the way he had to go until Emma is ready to date him is a long ways, but it is worth it. Emma is so afraid of letting someone in. She tries so hard to let nobody in heart. Not Killian, not Neal, not even her parents. Because she is afraid of losing people. She lost so much and had the feeling she is always alone. Her parents gave her away, all families didn’t want her. Than Neal left her and later he died… person Emma cares about are dying. She is feeling like being in love with her is the reason they died.
So she needed someone like Hook. Someone who always against all odds survive. Someone who pushes her again and again. He never gave up. He always tries to get her to live and Emma puches him away more than ones.
Well-balanced
From all the couples on the show these two are the most well balanced. He is what she needed to start actually living again and letting her family in. He is what she needed so she could open up and start to let the past behind. Someone, who put up with her and don’t let her push him around.
And she is everything he needed. He needed her to get his believes back, to remind himself of who he really is. So back to the changing clothes. When he finally had the date with Emma, he changed his clothes again. Because know is starting to become whole again.
So even when i don’t like Emma very much. I love them together, because they are part of each other like nobody else in that season. The meet eye to eye.
There is just one pairing i love more and that is Regina and Robin, but the mean reason for that is that Regina is my favorite person – she is the reason i watch the serie. But this is theme another time.
For the new part of Once upon a time i hope for many Killian and Emma scenes. Make them closer, let them really become a unit we already know they are.
