Finding out the truth
LuLu asked for a oneshot of *6x02 spoilers!* (I hope you don't me editing this slightly to avoid writing something I've already written) Jiminy letting it slip to Snowing and Killian about Emma's visions.
Since Emma had started her session with Archie, her family had seen a remarkable improvement in her. Sure, it was clear that something was still wrong, but they knew she would tell them in her own time. They presumed Jiminy would be urging her to do that, as was his usual style. While the family were at Granny's one night, Jiminy came in to get some coffee to go. When he arrived, Emma had been visiting the bathroom. So the family decided to take the opportunity to discreetly thank him for all his help.
"Jiminy." Charming said, as he, Snow and Killian approached Storybrooke's source of emotional comfort. "We just wanted to thank you for helping with Emma's…problem." Charming said, extending his hand. Not knowing what the exact issue was, he couldn't think of a better word. The problem was, Jiminy took that as Charming knowing about the issue and wanting to be discreet. Jiminy shook Charming's hand warmly.
"It's my pleasure. I hope finally opening up to all of you about these visions will bring her some peace. Whether they make it to reality or not." Snow, Charming and Killian were all confused. Emma hadn't mentioned any visions. Snow was about to say as much, when Charming lightly stepped on her foot. If they admitted to not knowing, Jiminy would clamp up and tell them nothing.
"So what do you think these visions represent?" Charming asked. "We're not sure." Jiminy thought for a moment, pushing his glasses up his nose.
"Well, Emma is convinced by what this Oracle told her that these visions are a sure sign of the future. That this is some great battle she really will face, and she really will be killed protecting all of you. Of course, it could just be her body's way of telling her that she has to start trusting more. That she can't fight all her battles alone."
"Th-thank you Jiminy." Charming stammered…Emma was having visions that she was going to die? Visions she had been told were of her future?" Snow, Charming and Killian all looked between each other. How were they meant to deal with this?
I won't be writing a sequel to this one either for the same reason :).
