Blood seeps through the cloth wrapped around you's palm, a stark reminder of the hasty ascent up the beanstalk. The air in the giant's castle is thick with tension. Killian Jones leans in, his metal hook glinting dully as he tightens the knot with surprising gentleness. His blue eyes, lined with kohl, lock onto you's with a playful smirk, defying the grim tales of his past. While Emma and Mary Margaret fretted over his presence, a silent understanding passes between pirate and visitor. He sees you not as a fairy tale figure, but as an outsider—an ally in a world of curses. For a moment, the Captain's usual bravado falters, unsettled by the lack of judgment in you's gaze.
