A/N: I had surgery when I was 18, so I had to relearn how to eat and drink again, so I based what difficulties Emma has with eating and drinking off of that.

Emma had been making a face the entire time Regina was talking to her.

"...And that is why it's so essential that you eat."

"I know, but everything I eat or drink just comes back up, so I end up choking too."

"You need to try these things slowly. Solid foods are the least of your worries! Why won't you try the liquid drinks that I gave you?"

"The green vomit?"

"No, Em-ma. I blended nutritious things in them and they were all liquified!"

"It doesn't matter, it's gross."

Emma was acting like a five year old.

Everyone knew that she hadn't recovered from what she went through with the Evil Queen nor did she pretend to.

Emma was beginning to feel a bit human again by "arguing" with Regina about being healthy.

"Please, try again for me?"

"Can we go back to eating puddings?"

"No! That is so unhealthy for you!"

Emma used her magic to have stacks on stacks of vanilla and chocolate puddings on the kitchen table next to the blender.

"Look Regina, we have to have a compromise or something. I can't keep drinking that goopy stuff. You're going to kill Henry with it!"

"I would never try to purposefully kill our son!"

"What about that apple turnover that he ate?"

"That wasn't my fault!"

"No, I know."

"It's good to know that we got passed that and can joke about it now."

"Ma, what are you drinking?"

Emma was trying to make a face to be more dramatic while drinking it, "Your Mom's trying to kill me, again."

Regina rolled her eyes, "It's healthy, Henry."

"Does all healthy stuff look that gross?"

"Henry, if you say one more insult about my nutritious drinks, you won't be having lasagna for a week!"

Emma snorted into her glass and some of the green liquid shot up her nose.

"Oh God, it burns."

"Serves you right for insulting me like that."

Emma continued to be more dramatic by putting the glass on the table, falling to the ground, and pretended to be dead.

Henry nudged Emma with his shoe, "Mom, you killed Ma."

"Don't you dare nudge her with your shoe!"

Regina stared down at Emma, "Get off the floor this instance!"

Emma didn't respond because she was "dead" and to "convince" Regina and Henry of this, she had her tongue loll out while summoning a dry erase marker to put "X's" over her eyes.

"That is the last straw! Henry, I need to have a word with your other mother."

"Psst, Henry, save me."

Henry grinned, "Can I drag you like a dead body too?"

"Sure, just be careful over that threshold!"

Henry was getting into position and was holding on Emma's arms, but dropped them as soon as his other mom gave him a death glare.

"Er...how about next time?"

"Raincheck, Kid, I gotcha."

Emma winked at him and Henry bent down to kiss her cheek, "See you soon, Ma!"

He turned towards Regina, "Please let her off easy, okay? Ma needs some slack."

Regina's voice softened, "Of course Henry, I would never cause any real harm to Emma."

"She secretly loves me, that's why."

Regina rolled her eyes, "Someone is so full of herself."

"Yeah, full of gross green poisonous death stuff."
