“No matter what you do to either of us, I am never giving you that code.“
Liam promised. The promise was in his eyes, Killian had seen it, and what it had cost him to make that promise. It was unwise to crush an interrogator’s hope of valuable intel. Withstanding ‘questioning’ was a balance. A balance of resistance and allowing the questioner a glimmer of hope. That glimmer of hope kept you alive.
The promise was a gift for him. Perhaps a parting gift, he thought darkly, and there was something in the thought that he didn’t want to look at too closely. Something in the thought that hoped maybe the pain was finally over. One way or another.
The shackle popped open without warning, and he crumpled. His battered body dropped like a stone, unable to even summon the strength to land carefully, to try to avoid the worst of the burns and abrasions. He wasn’t even certain how he could have. He’d stopped evaluating his injuries long ago, stopped calculating the odds, trying to escape, trying to fight, even stopped talking. He’d no energy for any of it. Even the thought of escape sounded exhausting. He just wanted to sleep. He just wanted the pain to stop.
Fire licked at his wounds but he’d no energy left even to scream.
He’d tried to avoid screaming at the beginning. For Liam’s sake, mostly. It hadn’t lasted long. Now he had nothing left. Not even for screaming. He could hear a low gurgling groaning noise and it took him a moment to realize the noise was coming from him.
“Fine. Bring it.”
Between one blink and the next a shallow tub of water had been dragged into his view and he wondered, detached, if he had passed out for a moment or two. He glanced up at Liam for a moment and saw hell. Tears slipped silently down his face and some long crushed spark of life in Killian managed something that was almost anger.
He hated being used against Liam. Hated that Liam had to see this. Hated that he couldn’t spur his broken body to say something to alleviate his despair. There was a firm grip on the back of his neck and then he was looking down into the murky brown water. It wasn’t until the cold water closed in over his ears that he realized he hated one more thing.
He hated that he’d never get to say goodbye.
*bounce* *bounce* :D :D :D It’s every bit as good as I’d hoped!

Present (Friday, continued)…
Emma was mostly silent during the ride to the edges of the Master’s territory, and Jones knew she was listening. As if she could somehow keep her husband alive by monitoring his breathing. Jones saw no reason to disrupt her concentration, illogical as it was. Regardless of what she heard, and what state Killian was in when they reached him–whether it was a rescue or a recovery–Jones had resolved to go in no matter what. This monster had to be stopped.
The paved road gave way to gravel, then dirt. About a quarter of a mile farther along, they would reach the invisible border, that line where any attempts to go deeper into the forest had always been met with scores of guard slaves. Jones pulled the car over. They could drive in and see how far they got before being stopped, or if he were callous enough, faced the necessity of mowing down anyone standing in their way. But they had decided that such a move would attract too much attention and give away their intentions before they had a chance to sneak into the Master’s presence. Shutting off the engine, Jones took a deep breath.
“Ready?”

“This is crazy.”
Jones heaved the steering wheel into a sharp right turn as he answered. “Emma, I didn’t mean to make you feel as if you have to do this. I know you have Hope to think about.”
Emma gave him a look. “You’re going to do it either way, aren’t you?”
“You’d have to come up with something pretty damn convincing to talk me out of it.”
My poor, poor baby................... :D
Fanfic trope mashup for CS, 40, 67?
I hope you don’t mind that I used your mash-up as inspiration for part three of my Avowed drabble which isn’t really a drabble any more, I guess…
Avowed: Part 3
A continuation of these drabbles:
Almost Kiss + Character in Peril
Raucous laughter spilled out from the tavern asKillian approached its entry. The memory of Emma’s confession that she had, onoccasion, disguised herself as a peasant in order to mingle with the common folkin such establishments had been recalled during his journey into the village.Looking about at the rough crowd, he wasn’t sure he wished to hope to find herhere, but he was running out of time. Lord Baelfire’s men were already inpursuit of Lady Emma, and his disappearance had surely been realized by now aswell.
A flash of golden curls escaping the cloak of amaiden who sat in a dark corner caught his eye. Her face was obscured by the itsdownward cast and the hood pulled prominently forward to cover her features.Even so, he knew it must be her.
Oh, you’d better NOT leave it there!!!
Taking On Some Dreamshade in episode 3x05 “Good Form”
In order to save David’s life, Hook has to chop his way through an overgrown thicket of Dreamshade to get to the spring that holds the healing waters of Neverland. Apologies for the darkness of the gifs; it’s a dark scene. Also, kudos to Colin for knocking himself right out of frame with his hacking.
All GIFs are full size when clicked on.
Watching Liam Cut Himself in episode 3x05 “Good Form”
In order to disabuse Killian of the notion that Dreamshade is dangerous, Liam Jones purposely gives himself a long, deep cut along his forearm with one of the thorns of the plant. Killian begs him not to, but to no avail. The deed is done. And it seems, at first, the plant is as harmless as Liam claimed...
Accepting the Blame in episode 3x05 “Good Form”
After Dave reminds Hook that all the terrible things that have happened are all ultimately the result of Hook stealing the magic bean in the first place, Hook doesn’t argue at all. “Fair point,” he admits.
