One arm
GrantL1991 asked for a oneshot of *season 6 spoilers!* Emma's vision coming true, but rather than being killed, her arm is cut off. Her parents help her deal with the amputation.
It still hurt, sometimes. She even found it itchy occasionally. But those were just phantom sensations. Emma didn't have a left arm, anymore. Not since Gideon had hacked it off. Emma knew she should be grateful. It could have been her life that was taken. It should have been her life that was taken. She was spared that, but she still lost a limb. There was nothing Whale could do to save or reattach her arm. Just clear up the wound so she had a nice, neat little stump at her shoulder. She had been offered a prosthetic arm, it would have had a functioning hand and everything, but Emma rejected the offer. If she was going to be an amputee, she would rather just not have anything there at all.
Emma's parents were doing their best to help her come to terms with the amputation. They offered her help where they saw her becoming frustrated, and they adapted the house to suit Emma's new needs as best they could. They knew it was just going to take time. Emma was a fighter. She would learn how to survive with just one arm, but they knew it was going to be difficult for her. Who wouldn't it be difficult for? Emma was having to relearn thirty years of day to day activities. They saw her when she tried to do something with two arms, and how defeated she looked. They wished they could take that look away, wished they could get Emma her arm back, but neither of those things were possible. All they could do was walk her through this, at whatever pace was right for her.
