I don't think of you as a huntsman or a sheriff. I think of you as Graham.
[patience, brave, a little wild sometimes. he doesn't have to be the huntsman or the sheriff. he's changed with a new heart and new experiences, the same way she did.]
( those are blanks he's still got to fill in for himself, though it isn't to say they don't exist. he's been a free man for years now and yet without a heart it was hard to answer those questions.
( is this a big step for them? is it wrong that he sort of assumed they'd find a way to stay together without asking? he must be more used to her to cuddle up to than she thinks. )
I would like that. Not the flat I have now, but... somewhere new.

he knows he doesn't want to become the huntsman again, either, but... what does that leave? )

And maybe a roommate who's already used to you hogging the blankets.

What would you think about getting a place together in Storybrooke?
