Charles M. Schulz "One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain." Bob Marley "A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous." Ingrid Bergman "Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together." Georg C. Lichtenberg "I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace an interlude during war." Georges Clemenceau "Excuse me I have to go vomit..." Hermione (Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince) "We're burning down the highway skyline on the back of a hurricane that started turning when you were young" The Killers (When You Were Young) "Slight of hand and twist of fate, on a bed of nails she makes me wait, and I wait without you" U2 (With or Without You) "Just because people do horrible things... it doesn't always mean they're horrible people." Meredith Grey (Grey's Anatomy) "Maybe we like the pain. Maybe we're wired that way. Because without it, I don't know; maybe we just wouldn't feel real. What's that saying? Why do I keep hitting myself with a hammer? Because it feels so good when I stop." Meredith Grey (Grey's Anatomy) "If you use the electric vibrator near water, you will come and go at the same time." Louise Sammons "There is nothing wrong with going to bed with someone of your own sex. People should be very free with sex, they should draw the line at goats." Elton John "Having sex is like playing bridge. If you don't have a good partner, you'd better have a good hand." Woody Allen My Tube Channel |

So I am as annoyed off as anyone with 3x07, but I am sad that the kiss/lead in to love scene got completely overshadowed. It was done beautifully so I decided to explore and expand on it. I know it's been done by many but I thought I'd give it a go.

Running Out Of Time reviews
My take on how the end of season 3/beginning 4 could go. Emma must follow Zelena to the Enchanted Forest of the past to preserve her and her family's future but can she save an ailing Regina in the process? Adventure story. Full character ensemble piece. WARNING NOT a Captain Swan story. It is SWAN QUEEN all the way. PLEASE NOTE RATING HAS GONE UP TO M!
