This isn't going to end well, Henry thought as he watched his Mothers fight over the remote. They have been on a kind of 'truce' for a couple of months now, after Cora has been dealt with and Hook now steers clear of Emma after she kneed him in the groin after one of his oh-so-charming comments.

Emma has now moved into the mayoral mansion, seeing it as the best solution to free up some space at Snow's apartment and keep Henry happy by seeing his Moms equally without 'I'll have him this weekend then pick him up to go back to you' he was getting sick of moving around so much and truth be told he missed his bedroom and the routine he had at Regina's house for his whole life. So he innocently brought it up that Emma should live with them and after the initial shock and spluttering from his Moms, they both saw the benefits to this new arrangement. After all it was a big house, they wouldn't be bothering each other too much, right?

Wrong. The first week had been awkward at best, every time they ran into each other round the mansion one of them uttered a hurried "Hi" or "sorry" then carried on their way. For the rest of the first month, Henry had started his newest mission 'Operation Enemy' now for obvious reasons this was a disguised name as his mission was simple: get his Moms to be friends and get along. This was easier said than done, either they were at each other's throats arguing just about anything, or they were giving each other secret glances and having one word 'conversations'.

Henry knows that they care about each other, he thinks thats obvious, but he also knows that they don't know themselves that they do care and understand each other better than anyone else.

First Henry tried bringing up the 'good times' "Hey remember when you worked together to help me and Archie out of the mine?" that just got his Mothers into a frenzy of "Don't you even think about doing something like that again!"

He thought about bringing up that they defeated Cora together, and when they stood, holding hands with purple smoke swirling around them and Henry was sure his book said that true love is the most powerful magic of all, and just the act of holding each other's hand, putting all their anger and power towards Cora, opened up a portal and sent her in, immediately closing afterwards. Nothing other than true love could do that right? But Emma, the saviour being the true love of Regina, the evil queen? The more Henry thinks about it the more sense it makes, talk about a great plot twist romance! But Henry is not sure that they're ready for that yet, let's try and get them to be friends first.

Then Henry attempted at them all having 'family time', he used his abilities of a cute 11 year old boy "Just wanting to spend time with both my Moms", this obviously worked on both the Mothers, them wanting nothing more than their son to be happy. So he chose Friday night to be 'TV and/or Movie night' and Saturdays to be their 'family day' in which Henry picks an activity for them to do (after approval from both the Mothers, of course). These went quite well, other weeks were better than others, and at least Regina and Emma were having actual conversations now (never without a sarcastic or snarky comment of course, but even these were delivered with a teasing smile).

After hearing "I am NOT watching a stupid documentary, TV is supposed to be entertaining, Regina" Henry decided to step in.

"GUYS!" They both turned with startled expressions "Can we not just watch The Avengers? That has action in it for you, Emma and I know how much you love my comics Mom! This is them in movie form!" His mother's shared a glance and both gave a small nod to each other and then to Henry, who ran out of the room to grab the movie. When Henry returned Emma was bent over the DVD player seemingly trying to get it to work while Regina was watching from the couch smirking with a remote control in her hand.

"Have you tried pushing the 'on' button, dear" Regina said, still smirking, pushing the off button on the remote every time Emma pushes on.

"Well DUH, but that's not wor-" Emma turned around, seeing Henry barely holding his laughter in and Regina chuckling herself, amused that the saviour seemed to inherit her father's intelligence.

After a minute of a stern expression, Emma soon broke out into laughter as well and after they all calmed down she teasingly snatched the remote from Regina, matching the brunettes smirk.

His mothers on either side of him, sneaking glances at each other throughout the movie, Henry smiled. Phase one complete.
