As the Dark One’s indentured plaything, Jefferson has learned to submit, survive, even thrive—so much so that she tasks him with training the timid spinner newly bound to her service to please her as well as he does.
Under Jefferson’s tutelage, Rumplestiltskin grows into his role, his desires, and his voice. But when the lessons end and the touches linger, they discover a bond deeper than servitude and survival: one that may lead them to freedom—and the families they gave it up for.

Summary
The Dark One’s family are the roots of Storybrooke’s people—but what happens when those roots run deeper than they should? When one is born of monsters and nightmares, how can one become a good father? Rumple will have to learn this through his own dysfunctional family.
Also known as: the AU where the Black Fairy was already a fairy when she had Rumplestiltskin. How will little Rumple grow, raised by both his mother and father—still villains—and how will this generational trauma pass on to his own children?
(This fic is completely self-indulgent so don't really expect much action, it's mainly based on coping with the trauma generated by parenting in childhood, and how this is consolidated in the relationships and families we form in adult life, all of this through Rumple's eyes.)

Summary
"I can feel it - the Dark One curse… maybe this is worse than death. I gave you the dagger and your memories because… if I'm not me anymore, I trust you to wield it."
"Emma, no." She can use it to get Emma to answer a question, she can't imagine herself compelling Emma to doing her bidding, to make Emma do something her entire being is fighting against.
But Emma steps closer, and it's intimate, the kind of feeling she's been lacking with Robin since they've been back. "Eventually I will come to hate you. But right now, while I'm still me, I'm telling you I trust you with this. Only you."
The one where it's up to Regina to end the Dark One curse, and also she has to decide if it's time to confront her feelings for Emma as well.
