Reply To: The CaptainSwan thread!

I think this needs to be said: it’s ok if people have different opinions on things. I’m a bit of a multi-shipper, but have backed off posting in this thread because there’s such a difference in how I see the underlying characters and their emotions.

That ought to be ok, but when you visit another thread and then come back to react in a sort of “us” versus “them” way about it, it’s kind of off-putting.

I wrote that post about crossing lines, and to me, it was about Hook’s character and desire to honor his relationship with Milah, and affection he might have for her son, despite the sad way things ended between them. Its ok if you think of it completely differently, that is why I didn’t express those thoughts on the CS thread.

It’s just the way you wrote about visiting the thread, as well as your reaction to the existences of a Hookriel thread, Captain Eala, that troubles me a little. Around these forums, its generally a ship and let ship kind of thing, not a “we’re right and they’re wrong” all out war. I’d like it to stay that way, and if you ever disagree with the reasoning of my posts, I’m up for a conversation. I warn you though–it can turn into novella length discussions as it has with MysteryKat. She still loves CS more, and I still lean SF more right now–but everyone is basing our opinions only on the first 2 seasons of the show.

I’m more than ready to revise what I think about the ships themselves based on new episodes and reveals on the characters. We poke holes in speculation on non-ship all the time and for me, it is ok if a shippy theory gets poked a little. If you don’t feel comfortable on a different ship thread though, to state your view, fair enough. Just be aware my oppinion is MY opinion, not the view of a “Ship” and it is ok if you disagree, whole or in part.
