"Hey Regina, you know I recently upgraded my cell phone." Emma says walking into the study.

"Yes, as I recall it had something to do with you putting the old one in the blender." Finished with one document, Regina sets it to the side before starting to review the next one.

"Yeah well, it had it coming. Anyway. I have been trying out the features…have you ever heard of something called Tumblr ?"

"No, dear."

"Well, it's kinda cool. You can set up your own blog, showing what you like. You know- movies, TV shows, books, crazy cats"

Interrupting what may be a very long list, "Yes, I think I understand. Is there a point forthcoming?"

"It's not all text. There are photographs and these moving pictures called GIFS and music and stuff." Childlike wonder accompanied by a soft smile.

"I know how fond you are of 'stuff', dear. Again, is there a point to this conversation?" Shuffling yet more paperwork.

"If you would let me finish…where was I…and fans of TV shows, like the one they shoot here"

"I am the one who signs the permits."

"Well, these fans write stories about the show. And the people on the show."

"How fascinating."

"Um, well, yep some of it is. Some of the stories are about us. You know- you and me."

"I see. What are we doing in these stories?"

"I've only run across a few so far. They are um, interesting."

"A few…hmmm."

"Yeah well, one had a link to FanFiction and Archive of Our Own where the entire story is. Then I did a search for, you know, us" pointing and motioning to Regina and herself "and there are like 3500 stories out there. It is amazing and weird. Lemme show you, scooch over." Regina has no choice but to move her chair over to make room for Emma to reach the open laptop.

Quickly opening a new tab and pulling up AO3.

Watching over Emma's shoulder "And have you found any that you find intriguing?"

Blushing "I may have read one or two that…could be…fun. But…"

"But what, dear?"

"You would have to read them too and agree 'cause your consent is important to me. I mean if you wouldn't be comfortable then I don't wanna" the rest is lost kissing…
