The Lion Tattoo

I agreed to this thing where you are not to publicly post anything regarding SWANQUEEN for three days, 27-29. I think it's about saying no to queerbaiting in the show... and yeah, I saw this analogy gif picture at tmblr where Hook was likened to Hans – and hey they both start with the letter H! – I've just arrived at Higashi kojiya, Tokyo Japan... I feel like I'm living in anime world (Kanamemo in particular!)

"What the hell is wrong with these people?!" I asked no one in particular. I found myself pacing in front of the guest room I let Emma used. The damned woman was so clumsy she had to use herhead to hit the floor just to stop Miss Lu... I mean Ruby and Tinkerbelle from fighting. And what is wrong with those two? Can't they co-exist without fighting?

I raised one brow, well... Emma and I used to fight a lot and we did get it on hard, remember that punching experience at my family's crypt? My musing was cut short when Henry stopped me from pacing.

"You don't have to worry about them mom, I got it covered." I looked at Henry with suspicion. "Don't look at me like that..."

"And why would I not look at you this way?" I should probably feel nervous that my son had itcovered. What in the world did my son did this time? "What did you do?" I asked in my most bewildered expression.

Henry raised both his hands on the air in a placating manner, "Don't fret mom, I just talked to them and put them on schedule."

I f I could raise my brows higher, I would, "Schedule? What are you talking about?"

He shrugged his shoulders, "Well they seem to like being in your company, so I thought giving them a scheduled day to be with you is the best way to prevent them from fighting again."

"Oh," Was that a good thing?

My son just laughed at me, "Don't worry, I have it under control. I just made sure they don't bumped into each other when they come see you... or that you'd have a date four nights a week. Isn't that great?"

Date – four nights a week; with those women? Ah..."That's great huh?"

"Yes that's great!" He seemed thrilled, how come he's more thrilled than I am? "Well, you'll probably have something to look forward to, I mean, maybe one of them could give you your happy ending?" oh yeah, it's about that.

"Look Henry..." he put a hand over my shoulder and shook his head.

"Give it a try will you?" I sighed, maybe, I have nothing to do with my spare time anyway. I smiled at Henry who excitedly squeal at the thought of him actually hooking me up. "I'm tired, I'll leave you now mom." I nodded. Well it is indeed late.

"Go on," I stepped close to him and gave him a hug. "I'll go rest myself,"

He frowned and stepped back from me, "Will you check on Ma first? I just want to make sure she's okay." He smiled at me. Though looking at his expression, he's hiding something from me and if it's Henry doing this hiding thing? I won't be able to coax it out of him – not even with a threat from the Evil Queen.

"Alright," it's the safest answer I could give anyway. He hugged me and then turned to leave, after giving me an eager wave. How could he be so keyed up about going to sleep? See what I mean? Henry plus excitement equals operation.

Operation about what?

It has been a while before I got to checking the woman in my guest room. I have no idea why I feel guilty about what happened to Emma. It was not my fault that she went in the kitchen to get in between the werewolf and the fairy, it was not my fault she was being her idiotic self that despite knowing what's happening, she rode in like the white knight she is and slipped on the 'sauced' floor that lead to the eventuality of her hitting her head... and now she has a concussion! It wasn't my fault and yet I feel guilty as if everything that happened was planned by me.
