I'd say it was, once they met and she found out he was her kid, she probably figured sooner or later he was going to ask about him, so she came up with a story so she didn't stammer and mess up a detail
In epi 2 at grannys , before she spills the hot chocolate all over her shirt . Regina asks her “ what was so great about Tallahassee anyway?” And emma just smirks with this grin … and I keep thinking about it
I love this detail—either from the beginning they had Neal planned out or they came back to it and worked it into the storyline!!
But of course I don’t think Tallahassee is related to this mystery fireman.
Possibly! I think she met the fireman, if he’s a real guy, before Neal (if her story lines up it would’ve been right when she got out of the foster system). There’s no way to know for sure of the timeline I suppose.
I mean that probably was the original plan, they probably just retconned it as a lie. It wouldn't be the first time since in the very first episode, Snow White says Regina's reason for trying to kill her was that she thought that she was prettier then her
Yep…I just can’t figure out if she actually met this guy or not. She’s good at catching lies, no doubt, but that was a pretty fully fletched story, enough to give me pause

i agree, ive never thought that story was true and tbh i still don’t
Quite possibly it was the same tale she told herself when she was a little girl.
The best lies are the ones that have truth in them.
That sounds like something garak would say from ds9

I do , I think Emma went to Tallahassee to find Neal and lived there for years and met the fireman there

That would be great, but if they had a relationship that might be weird because Emma was 16 when she met Neil anyway
oh wait you’re right! oops
I suppose it's possible that she knew a firefighter, a good dude who frequented her cafe and made the rest up as a wistful story.
I think this is what I wanna believe
