AU. You do not have to watch the show to know what is going on in this story. Regina Mills is from the the big city of NYC. When her father gets a job offer that he can't refuse the whole family packs up and moves to a small town in Maine called Storybrooke. Emma Swan has lived in Storybrooke her entire life. She is always known as the blind girl. And to be quite honest she's tired of hearing that.
