Emma's title and birthright have nothing whatsoever to do with the circumstances in which she might find herself currently. They are part of her DNA and therefore transcend everything. Even if she never makes it back to the Enchanted Forest, she IS a princess and always will be.

I've drawn my conclusion about that a few pages ago. Emma's title and birthright are always there in FTL where nobody's stealing or nullifying them. My point was about Emma's circumstance in the States where David and Mary are not king and queen, hence Emma is not a princess. It's like what you've got in your old company - title, salary, bonus, resources, men, everything - doesn't go with you to your new workplace.

But also I get Jonathan's point. That regardless of her title by birthright, its all null in the real world. If they ALL end up back in FTL with Emma and Henry too, it would be interesting to see how Emma might transition to the role expected for her there. She would still be the saviour, but in FTL there's no denying her parents are royalty, so she would have that princess role coming into play as well. Here in SB/NY/Land without magic, she's seen as the Saviour more than anything else by the people. But if they all returned to their homeland, then they would also look to her as a princess - the daughter of their king and queen. It would be interesting to see how Emma would handle that __________________

Regardless of where they are or what has happened to them, Snow and Emma are royalty - and have access to royal titles and privilege - because they were born directly of royal stock. David can lay claim to royal titles and privilege because of his marriage to Snow, but those titles and that privilege could be taken away and he would be nothing more than a shepherd, but such is not the case with his wife and daughter.

All in all, royalty is the nature of Snowing and Emma, but in the real world, they are nurtured to play different roles that didn't exist in FTL. It's a simple fact. Storybrooke needs a pickup driver, a school teacher and a new sheriff more than three royal members.

David and Mary Margaret are pickup driver (actually his job was working at the animal shelter. He just happens to drive like most citizens do) and school teacher, but after the curse broke, they became both. Most of the citizens of Storybrooke acknowledge them as both as well (except for Whale, for example, who made point to tell Charming “you aren’t my prince”). Since the curse broke, Snow and Charming haven’t acted in their old jobs at all, but of course, they do use knowledge that they have from their cursed selves (and Snow would have learned things from living in the world for 28 years). Anyway, since the curse broke, Storybrooke has been in shambles. Regina was kicked out of office, which means the town had no leader. Charming, Snow, and Emma have all acted as sherriff, co-sheriffs and leaders, but their power is limited. Regina never got a trial. Hook didn’t get a trial. Between a wraith and a giant, much of the town has been destroyed. Point being, if Storybrooke hadn’t been dissolved, they would have had to figure out a new ruling system. Yes, Storybrooke is in the USA which doesn’t have a monarchy, but no one in the USA actually interacts with Storybrooke. For all purposes, Storybrooke is its own world. Storybrooke would do what they want, and as most people already acknowledge Charming and Snow as their leaders and rulers, that would make since to make that official and give them legal jurisdiction. If Storybrooke had continued, I find it unlikely that Snow and Charming would go back to teaching and working at an animal shelter. That isn't who they are anymore. |
