A Rumbelle fic, as seen through Rumpel's eyes. "They were cruel to her." Those words rang in his ears, threatening to drown him in the consequences of his choices as he stares at the white porcelain cup. Tag to 'Skin Deep'. One-shot.

A moment of kindness between Belle and Rumpelstiltskin.

I love him even more now, if that's possible, and I'm biting my tough inside my mouth because the physical pain somehow numbs the fact that my heart is breaking right here and now. Based off 7:15am What would happen if James didn't let Snow leave. Snowing

Drabble-ish take on Rumplestiltskin and Belle's story from the perspective of one who knows about the broken pieces.

"Rumpy," her new nickname for him. "I want to hear a story." Rumplebelle, I might add more later

This is my take on the thoughts and feelings of Rumple and Belle throughout the episode of Skin Deep. If you haven't seen it yet you will not understand it. ;- A very long one shot. I hope you enjoy!

Emma is obviously sick but also, it seems, determined to start a flu pandemic in Storybrooke, and Storybrooke can't have that. And Regina is Storybrooke.

Sheriff Swan has been a symbol for change in Storybrooke since her arrival. Can she again go beyond Regina's rules and bring together two people who never would have had a chance without the curse of Storybrooke? Rumpelstiltskin / Belle

He learned that courage got you killed. He learned that cowardice kept you alive. Cowardice kept you safe. He would stay life. He would stay safe.

Belle's last night in her father's tower.

In a secret Storybrooke asylum, Regina conceals the girl once called Belle from Mr. Gold's watchful gaze. But that won't stop Emma from reuniting the would-be lovers and bringing down Madame Mayor in the process. Gold/Belle.

Emma and Mr. Gold bond over ice cream and their pasts

Once upon a time there lived a young woman with a simple life in a quiet town. That all changed when Emma arrived. Helen begins to find herself & her voice, while echoes of the past resonate louder. A search for truth and honor in two worlds. Gold/OC

Perhaps she might be more than a pretty face. There might be some reasonably deep thoughts behind those oh-so lovely features. These next few years, her companionship might not be quite so tedious. He liked the thought of that. Rumpel/Belle, one-shot.

He's done being her plaything, her puppet. No one fools Rumpelstiltskin - no one.

Drabble - Belle/Rumpelstiltskin

This couldn't be so horrid. Bravery was what she sought, heroics, and the like. No one could ever say she wasn't brave. Taking this one day at a time, one dawn after another…. She was going to try. Her first day in the castle, Belle makes a decision.

There is one other character who remembers her past. Princess Fayoriana of the Fairies. Henry brings Emma to her to see if she can help but Fay has her own battle to fight.

He wants to tear his eyes away, find another object to fixate upon. But she was dancing, face painfully blank, lips slightly parted. Arms held aloft, eyes closed, she looks to be daydreaming, peacefully floating through her own mind. Belle/Gold. One-shot.

David finds a note left on the table at Granny's. Who left it? And why does it lead to Mary Margaret? DISCLAIMER: I don't own Once Upon A Time... but i'd love to live in Storybrooke!

Set before the events in "Skin Deep," though inspired by them. Rumpelstiltskin finds himself in a weaver's village and makes a Deal to get a new tapestry. Several Deals, in fact, and though to him it's one afternoon, the effects will be very long lasting.

She has always been drawn to danger, but princesses don't worry themselves with war and adventure. Those are men's battles. Musings on 01x12 Skin Deep.

Belle/Rumple This is after Belle leaves Rumples castle. Her confrontaion with her father, imprisonment, suicide, and Rumple hearing word and coming back for her. She is resurrected, and a very crazy ending.

Spoilers for Skin Deep. She may be a prisoner but they will never forget who she is...

When Archie and Emma have a fight, Emma is led back to where she is meant to by with the advice from an unexpected source. Archie/Emma relationship. Emma/Mr. Gold friendship.
