What are zombies? ( Hook feels terribly out of the loop sometimes. zombies are a very modern creation, the heartless villagers that Cora sent after people really aren't quite the same, and even if they were close Hook wouldn't have any idea to call them zombies. ) Is that the 'them'? ( there's been plenty of people nathering on about a them — he heard about the dinosaurs, too, but he's already inquired about those — he'd like an idea of what he needs to look out for. he's got a sword and he has his hook, that is defense enough for him in most situations.
he nods to the idea of looking around, but if there's a split up that is going to occur then they're going to be saying goodbye to the dear mayor. he's not quite ready for distance yet. he's still not entirely confident that this is all real, that Emma is with him, and the idea of walking away seems too dangerous. she might disappear all over again, and he knows that using the dagger to try and summon her doesn't work.
as to the idea of Emma using her magic, well; Hook is a bit at a loss. her magic is not inherently dangerous, not in and of itself. she's the savior, she has a great deal of light magic at her disposal, and it very well might be helpful... it just seems like it might not be the wisest course, considering the precarious nature of the dark one curse. if she taps into her own magic, will she tap into the darkness tethered to the blade? he doesn't want her to infect her heart for no cause, not when they could find another way.
the problem is he can't quite tell if he's simply paranoid over losing her, or if it's genuinely a bad idea. )
It seems risk— ( his sentence deflates before it even finishes as Emma tosses out the last bit. honestly, the pirate wouldn't have mentioned that to Regina Mills. in a matter of strength, Regina is a better keeper of the dagger, but Hook doesn't trust her with it in the slightest. she's been tempted by darkness, bloody hell she and her mother tried to steal the damn thing and betrayed him to do it, so he has his reasons. she's too controlling not to think she's entitled to the task, though, which will make things ... awkward. ) Risky. Not even I know how this curse works, Emma, and I hunted the Dark One for centuries. Could be that using the magic while tethered to the dagger might invite darkness into your heart.
( he's never considered the fact that the dagger is what made Rumpelstiltskin evil. it doesn't sit well on him, but just in case, it doesn't hurt to be careful. his expression is concerned, because he is. it's up to Emma, in the end, but he would rather know more before they make any rash choices. especially where she is concerned.
the glance he sends in Regina's direction is far less friendly. he's not giving her the dagger, she'll have to take it from him; hopefully the fact Emma has left it with the person she wants to have it will be enough to stay her hand. )
