Summary
Regina yanks her arm from Emma’s grasp and spits out, “Don’t touch me,” and it’s all wrong, it’s all a mess and it’s Emma’s fault. Because she couldn’t let someone else die. She rails at the unfairness of it, at this new coincidence that puts her directly in her vaunted dynasty of Women Screwing Up Regina Mills’s Life. She wants to complain, to deflect, to point out that she couldn’t have known–
Regina turns around, her eyes very red, and a thousand excuses rattling through Emma's mind fall silent. “What the hell do you want now?”

Dark!Emma. With Neal's death, her parents' impending new baby, and the resurfacing of memories she isn't thrilled to have back, Emma begins a descent into darkness that no one wants to see or believe in. Except Regina, who knows better than anyone what despair and power can bring. Even to the savior. Even when Regina has her own battles to fight.

Summary
And Regina thinks, and she can’t remember the last time that Emma’s hexed her in the halls. She remembers Emma passing her a telescope during Astronomy without a single snide word, and she remembers Emma fighting with others this year but never her.
She stares at Emma, uncomprehending, and Emma says, “Parents suck,” with so much finality in her voice that it strikes Regina as an odd statement for an orphan to say.
“Almost as much as uppity Gryffindors do,” Regina says grudgingly, and for once she isn’t talking about Emma. Emma grins and bumps her shoulder, and Regina hexes her as she leaves the room because frankly, she doesn’t need a white knight.
(The grimdark post-Hogwarts fake dating fic that literally no one (except hopefully comet) ever wanted. Guess we're all stuck with it now!)

Summary
Regina pours a thumbful of whiskey for Emma and leans back, keeping that casual smile on her face for onlookers. “Anything but rum, huh? Sounds like a story there.” Sounds like a fantasy, but Regina knows better than to believe that Emma would ever–
Emma eyes her, something wistful in her gaze, and she drinks back the whiskey and says, “Yeah.”
Regina’s heart catches in her throat. “Bad breakup?” she dares to ask.
“Bad divorce,” Emma retorts.
