1. Captain Swan

2. Snowing

3. Regina and Jefferson (Don't judge me. lol) Honestly, Lana has so much chemistry with anything on set including the props that it's hard not to ship Regina around. I had my Regal Hatter phase too. Ah, good old times.

At the moment, I don't have any ship, canon or not, that makes me go OMG YES PLEASE MORE. I mean, when I rewatch Skin-Deep and S3B respectively I go back to nuts for Rumbelle and Outlaw Queen, but then S4 onwards happened. And to be fair, despite what die-hard shippers may think, Once is really mostly about familial rather than romantic love and I like it that way. That being said:

1) Scarlet Queen (whatever happened to screw that up, it was off-screen so who cares; also, I'm still sticking to Alice's book so, until further notice, they'll eventually get back together.)

2) Kathryn / Abigail and Jim / Frederick: that was a moment where the ship really gave a whole lot of depth to the character. I started loving and rooting for Abigail from that moment. Such an underused character.

3) …Zades? They were kinda cute in their own, dysfunctional way, and I could absolutely feel for Zelena and her terror to open up.

4) Clorinda and Jacob are kinda cute, too.

5) Ruby Slippers, however rushed.

And that's it. I mean, nothing against post-S1 Snowing – they're the only (mostly) functional and ongoing relationship in the show that sticks for more than one episode – or CS, but they just leave me cold. There's a bunch of more interesting stuff going on in Once than that imo.
