All magic comes with a price!
Keeper of FelixHi, everybody! This is a little off-topic, but I now have a tumblr page at http://cs-in-tn.tumblr.com . I’m hoping some fellow Captain-Swan shippers may follow my page. Thanks, and have a blessed day! (now, back to our regularly scheduled topic discussions 😉 )
My tumblr page is http://cs-in-tn.tumblr.com/
Yuppers, PoM, that was really cool to see! Can’t wait to see what is in store for my favorite Dark One with the “pure haaaaaht” 🙂
***Always in search of a good flock***
Point being that it truly doesn’t matter what ANYONE thinks about any character, if you enjoy a character and find others who feel the same, and can share that joy with them, then others’ opinions don’t mean squat in the scheme of things. (Grin) That is true for any character, dead or alive, gone or very present. Obviously, personal preferences and opinions aside, the main cause of negative message board crap is that some posters can’t avoid trying to aggressively ruin other peoples’ enjoyment by creating nothing but ignorant BS about a character they don’t like. Truth or common sense doesn’t matter, only trying to blame and accuse and denigrate other fans or the characters they enjoy becomes the main reason for even existing in a fandom. In the cases where people can’t see beyond that particularly ugly, moronic mentality, rational discussion is rather pointless. You can’t joke around or even empathize with them without the petty blabbering entering the discussion. I adore Hook. I embrace the gorgeous and not so gorgeous about his character. He entertains the heck out of Sunday nights (and DVR repeats) for me. When I can find others who embrace him in the same spirit, and can, with intelligence and wit and friendly sensibilities, debate about the character’s intricacies, quirks, flaws…it’s massive fun. Visual and verbal, the Hook followers make me smile. Otherwise, ya know, I don’t give a p*ss.
Yep, I’m totally happy to get outside perspectives & interpretations on the characters & couples I love though- I’m always up for a good debate 😉 I am however, far too much of a just person to readily swallow slandering a character or couple, because someone would prefer something else- if they dont like them/it, that’s fine, but try go about trying to sell personal opinion as fact.
I have loved the conversations I’ve had recently with SF & NF fans on other sites, because we stay with-in the facts set by the show- sure we can colour, add depth & importance to certain things based off of prior character actions & our own interpretations, but we dont go about spouting our opinions as fact, so it allows us to have some really good discussions.
What I have found most interesting in these discussions, is the acknowledgement by the majority that Killian is the better partner for Emma & he has well proven himself in that respect- this is not to say that SF/NF fans ‘ship’ CS in any way shape or form at all, just that the dislike of our fav couple, has been diminished & the opinion of our favorite pirate improved, by the acknowledgement of said misinterpretations.
For me personally I think Hook was supposed to be a character who was neither villain nor hero, he was simply a man who didnt deal with some emotional blows very well at all & as a result starting walking a very grey moral path, where his actions could swing wildly from entirely heroic one moment & entirely selfish/ dark the next. Good people can & do make horrible choices & I think Hook’s character took that to the extreme, which is why most people had a very hard time seeing him as an actual “villain” or “bad guy”.
Just saw the new promo with the RumBelle dance!!!! I am so happy right now!!!!!!
It’s such a friggn cool part of the movie & it looks like Once is going to do it proud, so I’m right there with you POM- I totally buzzed when I saw that! They’re in the SB library arent they? So if they are, it looks like it’ll be ‘real time’ & that makes it even cooler!… Oh, maybe Killy catches Knave spying on them & thats why he decks him! It’s be awesome to see Killy ‘protecting’ if not Rumple, then Belle in some form- since they are part of Henry’s family & he really like’s Henry. ‘Tis my new head cannon 🙂 PLEEEEEEEAAAAASE A&E, can we see something like this happen 🙂
I’m getting so psyched for S4 now! 😀 😀 😀
Hi, everybody! This is a little off-topic, but I now have a tumblr page at http://cs-in-tn.tumblr.com . I’m hoping some fellow Captain-Swan shippers may follow my page. Thanks, and have a blessed day! (now, back to our regularly scheduled topic discussions
)Hi Sarah! Long time no see 🙂 Hope we’ll see a little bit more of you here again 🙂
I’m convinced now that Kalinda Vasquez accidentally let something slip on Felix. I’d been tweeting her since August 31 and she replied each time which was very nice of her (the tweets and replies were August 31 to September 2). However, when she posted the tweet about Felix and “stay tuned” yesterday, Adam appeared on twitter, added a reply to a previous tweet and I haven’t heard back from Kalinda since. I think Adam made his presence known because the Felix thing was verging on spoiler territory some how and he didn’t want Kalinda to give anything else away accidentally.
These are the tweets:
@KalindaVazquez Thanks for replying. When you write for characters with unknown pasts, do you get given an outline of their history? #OUAT

@RumBelleion The #OUAT writing staff works together to come up with their stories under the genius of @AdamHorowitzLA and @jollychan4
— Kalinda Vazquez (@KalindaVazquez) September 2, 2014
@KalindaVazquez Thanks for replying. Did the writers come up with backstories for #Tinkerbell and #Felix since their pasts are unknown?
— RumBelleion (@RumBelleion) September 2, 2014
@rumbelleion Episode 303 of #ouat "Quite a Common Fairy" dealt with Tink's backstory as for Felix stay tuned!!
— Kalinda Vazquez (@KalindaVazquez) September 2, 2014
Not long after that last tweet, Adam posted this
“@KalindaVazquez: @RumBelleion The #OUAT writing staff works together to come up w/their stories" couldn't do it without our amazing staff!

Keeper of FelixWow…I definitely thought that pretty much all of the Neverland stuff was done, and I definitely didn’t think that Felix would come up again at all since he’s dead. Unless they really are thinking of doing a Neverland spin-off or something; I assumed that was just random speculation or wishful thinking from some fans. Or maybe he has some random connection with Arendelle (Anna and Elsa’s cousin? One of Hans’s brothers? Lol) or Maleficent.
I thought the Neverland stuff was all done as well so was surprised by the “stay tuned”. All I wanted to know was if they came up with a backstory for each character which informed how the character behaved and acted in a given situation and their motivations etc. Obviously we don’t get to see the backstory of every character on the show, I was just interested in if there was a backstory and if so what was it?
I used Tinkerbell and Felix as the two example characters because we don’t really know their story. We know next to nothing about Felix and we don’t know what the first mistake Tinkerbell made was since Blue said she was on her second chance.
I could try and tweet Kalinda again to see if she could explain what she meant by “stay tuned” but I don’t know whether I will get a reply or not. It just seems a bit suspicious that Adam appeared after that specific tweet.
