Yeah, so kind of like @HappyEndings, you ship Captain Swan by default lol!!!!! WE ARE CLAIMING YOU AS OURS OK
As long as there is a mutual understanding that my definition of “shipping” in this circumstance is drastically different to y’all…. (i.e. I’m on here for the HBO style scenes. Couldn’t give a stuff about the happily ever afters.)

See, this was one of the last things I talked about in the CSF thread. Cursed Charming did have to make a choice and Mary Margaret pointed that out to him. It wasn’t in a threatening way. She was stating the obvious and Hook also stated the obvious too.

ParticipantFirst, I’m so glad that the CSF thread is banished into oblivion. I had been fighting the urge to jump in there for a while and for a person who occasionally just likes to argue that wasn’t easy lol.
Good to know @hookian – thanks for the heads up! I know I stopped catching up on a bunch of them that were blatantly ignoring any of the even obvious parallels with CS because it got too frustrating. Personally I find it fascinating that the ones who taught me to look more in depth and notice the structure, camera angles etc etc have been hardcore denying CS is a real thing until very very recently, and one of the podcasts I love for the people is split down the middle on shipping and doesn’t do all the detailed stuff but at least it’s fun to listen to because both are represented. I’d really love to be able to catch up on the others though. Been pretty busy and just gave up for awhile because it was so one-sided. I miss them, even if they don’t think my ship exists. We’ll just have to wait for the show to prove us right. It’s been doing a pretty good job so far! Look how far we’ve come! (And some of us have been here from the beginning – man was that rough!)
I was surprised when I heard the podcast how open they were this time when it came to Emma possibly choosing Hook. I felt as most of my fellow CS shippers did that maybe they were a little too pro SF for a while. So I was expecting to hear more of the “Hook’s kiss didn’t work so it can’t be true love” stuff we’ve been seeing since it happened. Instead the said basically the opposite. I wrote in a couple times after hearing initial reactions and how many missed opportunities there were to show things from the other side’s perspective. I hoped I’d bring a little balance with what I said since that’s hard to do with no one shipping Captain Swan hosting the podcast lol. All I’ve ever tried to show the other side is that both our ships are viable as endgame, never that one is better than the other. The show has done that by itself, some kind try and jump on the holes that pop up to try and invalidate the other side but the truth is both sides points of view regarding their ships are valid and this is all personal preference until the show ends the triangle.

Lol, yeah, same!

THIS site’s podcast??? I stopped listening a while ago too, THIS site’s podcast is now open to a possible CS pairing???
Wow. 3×11 really WAS a gamechanger.
