@leni-ba asked for cursed!Papafire in Storybrooke.
I have to contained my idea and not let it become 5+pages comic. So, this is what I’ve got. I hope you like it.
AU where Baelfire find a way back to EF before the curse hit. He become Neal Cassidy, orphan boy who work for Mr. Gold.
Neal and Gold was close, even if Gold won’t admit it. The pawnbroker feel a strange bond with the boy without knowing why. They even thought about what might have been if they are really a family…
I kinda thought about something happens during the curse and prompt Bae to run away, maybe he somehow got his memory back and decided he can’t face his father like this. He succeed, of cause, he can escape Neverland after all.
And maybe in this verse, he will decide to stay and help Emma break the curse, because, even if he knew his father has a hand in the curse being casted, he wants his father back.
