The relationship could become stronger. Regina, who has had a difficult past, might find new hope and softness in the idea of having a family with the OC. They could start to rely on each other more, sharing fears and hopes about the future. For example, Regina could open up more about her own past traumas related to family, and the OC could comfort her, creating a deeper bond.
The pregnancy could bring out a protective side in Regina towards the OC. She might use her magic to create a safe environment for the OC and the unborn child. The OC, in turn, could help Regina see the good in herself that she often overlooks. They could also have shared experiences like feeling the baby's first kick, which would be a very intimate and bonding moment. This would lead to a more loving and committed relationship between them.
At first, they might struggle. Regina is used to being in control, and the unexpected pregnancy could throw her off balance. The OC, on the other hand, might be dealing with their own insecurities. However, as the pregnancy progresses, they could gradually learn to communicate better. They might have to face challenges together, like dealing with the judgment of other characters in the Once Upon a Time world, which would force them to stand by each other and thus develop their relationship.
Snow White might be initially suspicious, given their past history. But she could also show a more empathetic side and try to help Regina. Hook might be amused and make some snarky comments at first, but then offer his protection. Rumpelstiltskin could see it as an opportunity to manipulate Regina further, perhaps by offering her magic to ensure a safe pregnancy in exchange for favors.
A possible plot twist is that the OC discovers that the pregnancy is not a natural occurrence but the result of some dark magic manipulation by an unknown enemy. This would make Regina and the OC go on a quest to find out who is behind it and how to reverse it if necessary. Meanwhile, they have to deal with the emotional turmoil of not knowing if the baby will be okay and whether they can trust their own feelings for each other.
As the OC's pregnancy progresses, Itachi may find himself changing his priorities. He might start to think more about a peaceful life with the OC and the baby. This could lead to a shift in their relationship from just being two individuals in love to a family - in - the - making. They could start making plans for their family, like choosing a name for the baby, which would bring them closer together.
Well, it could start with a business - like relationship. Sydney might be working for Regina in some capacity. As they work together on tasks, they begin to see each other's true natures. Regina might see Sydney's loyalty and intelligence, and Sydney might see Regina's complexity and the reasons behind her actions. This new understanding could lead to a deeper emotional connection. They could start to care about each other's well - being more than just for the sake of their working relationship. For instance, Sydney might stand up for Regina when others in the town are being critical of her, and Regina could use her power to help Sydney achieve some of his personal goals.
The relationship might develop through shared experiences. As the OC goes through the different stages of pregnancy, they face various challenges together. Maybe they have to deal with a difficult pregnancy and Sasuke has to be there for her, which strengthens their bond. Also, they could start planning for the future of their child, which brings them closer.
Well, a plot twist might be that Regina's pregnancy is a false one, created by an illusion spell. This could be part of a larger scheme to make her look vulnerable and draw out her enemies. Or perhaps the baby she's carrying has some sort of special power that she has to protect it from other magical beings who want to use that power for their own gain. Also, it could turn out that the pregnancy is a result of time - travel shenanigans, where she got pregnant in a different time period and now has to deal with the consequences in her current time.
At first, their relationship might be full of mistrust. But as they interact more, they could start to respect each other's power. For example, Regina might see Dr Facilier's voodoo magic as a useful tool in her schemes.
In the fanfiction, their relationship could develop in a complex way. Maybe Roland gets into trouble at school, and Regina steps in to help him. She uses her wisdom and power to solve the problem, and Roland becomes in awe of her. But it's not just about Roland idolizing Regina. Regina also learns from Roland's pure heart. He might teach her how to see the good in simple things again. This back - and - forth exchange of learning and helping each other would make their relationship grow in a very unique and heartwarming way.
Regina often develops from a more guarded and controlling character to a more nurturing one. As she raises Emma, she starts to let down her walls. For instance, she may begin to show more vulnerability around Emma, sharing her own past traumas.
Their relationship can be developed by having them share more personal secrets. For example, Regina could tell Henry more about her childhood before she became the Evil Queen. Henry, in turn, could share his dreams and fears for the future. This deepens their understanding of each other.
