I know. I read those same comments too and thought to myself that there are lot of people who need some serious help. They are either so mad that their ship isn’t the one that is sailing that they feel to write comments that are meant to try to irk the CS shippers or they are in such serious denial they can’t even see what is right in front of them ONLY when it comes to Emma’s romantic relationship with Hook because the exact same kind of body language, subtext, vocal inflections etc, with any other character – or with Emma and and other ship – seems to be crystal clear to them.
This is the first time I’ve ever gotten involved with message boards, etc. for a ship on a show so I don’t know if there are just a very special group of very immature, angry fans who really don’t like CS that feel the need to post negative stuff everywhere or if stuff like this happens with every show.
How incredibly negatively draining it must be to constantly be making negative comments about a show, character, and ship instead of having fun getting excited over ones you like!
[adrotate group="5"]I hope they just keep up the progression of their story so there can’t be any denying it anymore even by haters. Hook is just winning her over little by little she says she trusts him, she says he’s good with Henry. He’s winning her over by being exactly who he is.
I get Regina being wary of leaving Henry with Hook because what she said about him is her impression of him and she really hasn’t got to know him that well plus Henry is her son too. Same with her view on Rumple, she and Belle would have totally different opinions on Rumple.
Though this leads me to something that bugs me about OutlawQueen, I like it and all but Robin is happy to let Roland near Regina? A woman who ordered the slaughter of an entire village? A woman who had his face on a wanted poster? Seriously? Since nobody remembers the missing year, I would’ve thought Robin would’ve at least been a bit wary of Regina in Storybrooke in regards to Roland’s best interests rather than letting his judgement be led by his trouser brain and looking at Regina’s bum saying “from this angle, Evil seems to be a misnomer” The woman has killed many, the name “evil queen” was chosen by her subjects not by her to make herself seem scarier.
I would’ve thought there would at least be a period of time where Robin doesn’t want to get involved with Regina then realises she’s not as bad as he thought etc. Regina knows Robin is her chance at happiness, Robin doesn’t so why would he logically entertain the thought of romancing her when his last remembered interactions of her are as the evil queen?

I dont remember Robin allowing Regina near Roland while in SB? I know Regina went lurking in the bushes to spy on Robin while he was playing with his son, but Robin doesnt know that (that we know of anyway lol).
The way I look at their ‘quicker’ progression (atm), is that IF they became a cannon, TLC couple while in EF for that missing year, then the fact they’ve only had a memory wipe (not personality switch like curse 1.0), wont change those actual ‘True Love’, love feelings towards each other- they will still feel that same TL pull/attraction (as if they are actually bonded by TL/ together), but wont know why they feel that way (at least on Robins side anyway)- if that makes sense?
I am also guessing that even though people in SB initially pointed a finger at Regina when trying to figure out who cast the most recent curse, Robin has heard from the Charmings, Emma, Hook, and Belle how Regina had already changed prior to the year they have forgotten. She did help everyone in Neverland and sacrificed her relationship with Henry in order to stop the curse the second time so people still remember that she has changed even if they don’t remember just how much she may have changed for the better during the missing year.
I had the feeling RH was actually just trying to figure her out and was kind of saying out loud what the whole premise of the show is for villains – they might be messed up but they aren’t really any different than we are, they have just felt they had to deal with life differently – whether they were right or wrong in that decision is where the problem comes into play.
So I don’t actually remember if she has interacted at all with Roland since everyone lost their memory, but RH would have heard that Regina sacrificed her relationship with her son and has probably seen how she has been upset about Henry. So that, coupled with what others have said about her growth in general, in probably enough to make him feel he can trust her around Roland.
I really don’t pay attention to the haters anymore. They don’t want to see what’s happening, that’s their problem.
But…
It’s also Jen’s birthday today. I’m going to go wish her happy birthday on twitter now. Be sure to send her lots of love today.
Quick response to several post:
Robin Hood has “chutzpah” and is a natural man of gutsy adventure. Plus more importantly, Regina saved his son.
Regina doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on in judging the character of someone else close to Henry without being a flaming hypocrite. She knows that Hook is devoted to Emma, ergo he would protect Henry.
All fandoms have killjoys and bullies. It is just a reflection of unpleasant people from their real lives. It is about their own personalities and often their inability to accept any one else’s enjoyment of…anything. They can’t be happy through their own hearts and minds, so they try to bring others down to their own crabby-arsed level. They will never change or go away.
Side-step them and hold on to your own joys 🙂
And yup yup yup about progression in relationships!!
basically and spoken from a very shallow need (ha!) …I want to see SOMEONE who knows what they are doing kiss the dickens out of that gorgeous smoldering pirate! Cannot waste that face. Cannot waste that face. Cannot waste that face!
and yeah, it would be fine if it was Emma. (Wink)

Just had a thought about the Hook in armour bit What if it is part of Regina teaching Emma and the point that Regina is trying to teach is defeating an enemy you don’t want to kill but may have to if it came to it? At the moment Rumple is trapped doing Zelena’s bidding. She’s controlling him therefore it is not of his own free will. So Regina may be training Emma to defeat Rumple. As for why it’s Hook, Regina may be messing with Emma to try and throw her off her game since Zelena would likely try and pull a similar tactic.

Keeper of Felix‘Haters’ or ‘anti-s’ are everywhere. Sometimes it really ticks me off, because I do try to be moderate and understanding of ‘the other side’ but I try to let it roll off my back 9x out of 10. I’d like to think if they took the story another route, I’d be ok with it. For example – I can get where SFers are coming from when they talk about Neal & Emma. I didn’t see it as clearly, and I didn’t necessarily agree; it’s not my ‘ship but I could understand it. (On the other hand…SQ? I just don’t get. And I am a very open person, a same-gender relationship would not bother me one bit – in fact, I think it would be nice to see on a show like OUAT, but I’m not seeing the correlation between Emma in a plaid shirt = she’s in love with Regina…but I digress.) So if they had gone the SF route, I would’ve been prepared. But there’s a small faction that make things difficult. Just like there’s a small faction of CSers that enjoy making their lives miserable. I think you just have to try not to give into that silliness and enjoy the things you enjoy, and support others with different views. And this is the fandom in general, I’m not thinking or attempting to imply any specific people are this way; for the most part here, I see people trying to do the same thing, which I appreciate.
Anywho,I’m trying to decide what I think about the bridge, and Hook and whatnot. It’s plausible, other than perhaps a flashback to FTL and tied into the Eriel storyline. I think I want Emma to find the strength within her, and use her love for her entire extended family as the source of her power than any one person, even Hook. One thing that I don’t love about Snowing is that they almost lose their own personalities within each other. They are one half of one being. I’d like CS to be two complete individuals choosing to be together rather than dependent on each other for their strength/happiness. I want them to support each other, rather than rely on each other. Snowing couldn’t function without each other. Emma was the same when Neal left. I want CS to be strong without each other, and their relationship only make them stronger. So I kind of hope the knight scene wasn’t associated with the bridge…but hey, if it is, we still get Knight Killy so I will be one happy girl!!
PriceofMagic said “As for why it’s Hook, Regina may be messing with Emma”
Well, it certainly is A&E messing with us! 🙂
Yeah, I can see that. I actually like the idea of the Knight in Shining Armor being some part of Regina’s training or Emma’s reaction to it during a moment of particular stress. It would certainly force Emma’s hand/stoicism to do something to break out from her protective walls. Her motivation to perform magic has always sprung from her heart and not any hate
But since I can see it, I am probably wrong (snork)
Yes, too, Jenna, as a couple, I second your emotion 🙂 ~Emma and Hook would have to continue to be stand alone, very strong characters. Watering either of them down would just so not serve their adventurous potential.
