that may be so, but affinity with animals doesn't come from marrying into it. raising a puppy for a year might, though.
I love you too.
( and true to his word, he'll be home as soon as he can manage. )

truly enough that it broke a 28 year old curse. so yes. with all my heart.
( and without one, come to think, but shh )

This place is starting to feel more like Storybrooke all the time.
true love breaks every curse, doesn't it?
I wouldn't remember who I was if I didn't truly love her. just as you said. if you're from the same world I am, you should know what that means.

why's that? there's not someone around trying to lure you into a deputy position with the temptations of dental, is there?
( graham, that was you. )

No, you're still the only disarmingly handsome imitation Irishman around.

haven't yet heard of another incident involving a stationary sign, and I suppose as your emergency contact I'd have an idea. can't be that.
what has you thinking of home sweet home?

all things considered I'm glad you picked the sign instead
you'll have to be more specific, Emma. I'm afraid what you remember I don't.
( his storybrooke drama was evil queen related, and Emma Swan related, actually. storybrooke had been cursed to calm before Emma arrived. he can't guess at what might be bothering her, it's up to her to tell him. )

Didn't stop you from arresting me for it.
Hook says he's been doing some traveling lately.
[To Storybrooke and back. Lucky them.]

can you blame me? I'd already warned you about drinking and driving, it would have been irresponsible not to.
( knowing the truth now doesn't change the fact he was cursed and unaware at the time. he did what was best for the town and for Emma, whether she wanted to agree to that or not. )
he seems a dramatic sort on the best of occasions, why does traveling make it worse?

I think you were just determined to get me to spend the night.
[ Never letting that go, Graham.]
He's in love with a version of me. And dying, since he refuses to ask the city to save him.

I was doing my job.
( sorry, Emma, no hidden flirtation there. besides, abusing power wouldn't be particularly romantic. )
you can't make that choice for another person. they need to make it themselves. that said I can't really understand it, speaking from experience.
( he doesn't know that he deserves to live but he's not going to give up the second chance, either. )

As far as I can tell, he wants to live. He just doesn't think he deserves to.
[So the choice he's making is questionable at best. Being willing to die so that he doesn't selfishly ask to live?]
He said my life here has turned out too well for me to understand what I missed in his world.

I intend to.
What spurs this marriage advice? I don't believe you've even introduced yourself.

I don't suspect I deserve it, either. I'm not quite selfless enough to give up the chance all the same.
( he's killed people, ruined lives, and made mistakes deep enough that perhaps they should not be forgiven. still, if the choice is free and without consequence, why wouldn't he want to live? )
sounds like a good excuse not to tell you the truth to me.

That's what I said.
- Not about you.
That I'll fight for what I have whether I deserve it or not.
[ Specifically, Graham and Henry. It's hard to feel like she deserves a second chance when she's the one who got him killed in the first place.]
Does it? Or am I disqualified from trying to help because I married someone else?

I don't suppose it'd be easy, to be in that position. I can scarcely imagine it.
( he's not sure he wants to, either. he's already met a version of Emma that has experienced his death, it would be hard to see her in love with someone else, even if he could conceptualize the idea she was a different version of the woman he loved. )
you're not disqualified from caring about someone. it's akin to suicide to choose not to live when there's an alternative, it's hard not to care about that. still, you can't make him want to keep going, I don't think even the version of you out there that loves him in return could. it's something he'll need to choose for himself.

No, it wouldn't be easy.
[ She can't completely put herself in that situation, even if Graham has another version of her who he's concerned about. It's not the same.]
There has to be something, Graham.

I think he needs time.
when I sorted out what was in store for me, I needed time, too. in the moment it's easy to get lost in what you're losing. it takes time to shake the hopelessness and decide to fight instead.
( Graham would know, considering he's been in the same place before. )

I've heard of you.
( guess from who. he's seen of you too, Hook, and he wasn't impressed, but you don't seem the same man that was making jests on Mary Margaret's post. )
I think you could stand to take your own advice. for someone that cares about Emma's happiness, it seems aren't thinking about it now.
