Summary
Rumplestiltskin never dealt for a maid, just a life of comfort. Neal hears news that the curse is broken and heads to Storybrooke in search of his atonement. Emma still owes Gold an unspecified favor.
Deals are tricky things and never play out in the way you'd expect, especially when curses, complicated pasts, and demon-boys are involved.

Another one of my favourites from AntiKyptonite! I just loved all the Rumple family stuff and although I usually can't take much romance, it was beautiful and full of heart in this story! <3

Summary
One choice can change fate. Regina chooses love, Snow stays silent, and Cora casts the curse. Rumplestiltskin knows that trusting Cora with that much power is dangerous—but he has no choice if he wants to find his son. 28 years later, Gold and Regina awaken in Storybrooke and must work together to make the Savior believe.
Yes, this Storybrooke is far darker than the one you know.

Amazing story! This is what I wanted OUAT to be and I finally fell in love with characters other than Rumpelstilskin! (Like with Belle, Cora, Regina and Robin) <3 I think I'll finally check out OUAT in Wonderland too because the characters here were intriguing. Nothing was too explicit either, so pretty safe for everyone to read though there are very dark things happening. ^^
If you're looking for something a little similar to this, there is another well-written OUAT AU that is Rumple-focused that I really liked here, Once Upon Another Time: https://archiveofourown.org/works/1760265

Summary
"Why do you want me to kill you?" Rumplestiltskin asks him, this Dark One of myth and nightmare.
"You want power, and I have it to give," Zoso hisses. "Seems a worthwhile bargain."
"But not one I want to make," Rumplestiltskin decides, and his hand with the dagger that weighs a thousand pounds drops back to his side.(Rumplestiltskin controls rather than kills, Bae negotiates rather than runs, Cora delegates rather than confronts, Regina cooperates rather than rebels, and still the curse is cast, the Savior comes, the boy believes, and worlds are torn apart by a father's love. How much really would change if one decision was altered?)

Wow, this was amazing! It's crazy how low the amount of bookmarks this one has and the fact that this isn't your most bookmarked work! I guess the OUAT fandom is more shipping focused or more focused on Emma/Regina. But Emma actually has quite a large role in this story just like in OUAT. This is quite Rumple-focused, but he is my favourite character so I loved it and many many characters have their own points-of-view.
Another thing that might scare people from reading this is that Rumple is not the Dark one, but this Rumple has plenty of magic and darkness and is very similar to the show! This story is beautifully written and there is lots of plot, romance, action and drama! A lot of people should read this one, because this became one of my OUAT favorites! <3 Another of my OUAT favorites is Freeze on the Stones which is a little similar to this one, but plenty different also: https://archiveofourown.org/works/2245713/chapters/4927686

Summary
“I think you have your own reasons for wanting to go to Neverland,” Belle says, her voice so soft he has to lean forward to hear it. “And if I knew what those were, maybe I could help you. I could find a way to get you exactly what you need.”
“Like magic?” he asks hoarsely.
She smiles at him, a smile so bright it lights up the whole room. “No,” she says. “Like a friend. If you want.”Rumplestiltskin went through the portal with Baelfire, and together, they fell into a Land Without Magic. But nothing ever comes easy, and when fate leads them to Neverland, Bae must find a way to save his papa from Pan's captivity--even if that means enlisting a bookish princess who asks too many questions. Even if it means facing Neverland all over again.
