I gotta say, I never thought I’d see the day where RumplesGirl would no longer defend Rumple or chose to stop supporting Rumbelle. Goes to show how much this show can change people.
To add my own two cents, I agree with RG that yes ultimately Rumbelle will get back together, because Adam and Eddy wouldn’t keep them separated for good. However, as it currently stands, they would have to build up a very convincing reason why they should get back together. I personally can’t defend Rumple’s actions in Season 4A at all. Wanting to be free of the dagger isn’t a bad thing, but the execution required to do so very much is. Freeing Rumple from the dagger does not excuse stealing a hat and absorbing magical people. Nor does it excuse Rumple killing Hook, whether you personally hate Hook or not. Yeah Hook should have known better than to blackmail the Dark One, but two wrongs do not make a right. And even if Hook hadn’t blackmailed Rumple, Rumple still would have tried killing him because his heart was the ingredient he needed for the spell to work. Even beyond that, Rumple was taking advantage over Belle’s blind devotion to him with the continuous lying and deceit. This was especially troubling when he did so during his freaking marriage proposal. Isn’t trust the most important thing, when it comes to a couple? Not to mention, I’m sure Belle still doesn’t know the full story behind Rumple’s recent events. She may not have figured out that Rumple was the one to kill Zelena, which would probably add more fuel to the fire if she were to find out.

Outlaw Queen. Others have already gotten into so many of the specifics. It had potential, but the execution has been sloppy.

Day 13 – Favourite Canon Ship
I’m actually going to go more traditional by choosing Snowing. I don’t really have an OTP, but to me Snowing is the core relationship of the show. Plus, I love how they modernized it with the way Charming meets Bandit Snow (in both timelines). There would be no Emma, no Henry, and therefore no show if Snowing never got together. What also makes Snowing unique is that Ginny and Josh are a couple in real life, so that only makes their onscreen chemistry even more natural.

Here’s a picture of Lily. I don’t see much of a resemblance so I wouldn’t say Agnes is perfect casting either.
There actually are some photos of her that made me think she could work:

Besides, it’s not like they always do a convincing job when it comes to casting for an older version of a pre-existing character on the show. Ginger Pinocchio grew up to be brown haired August. They may have decided to open up the casting by not just excluding the role to latinas. I don’t think Lily’s original casting call even specified “latina”, anyway.
Day 12-Least Favourite Villain:
Tie between Greg and Tamara, since they’re a team. I already covered why I disliked them as recurring characters.
Agnes favorited this tweet that guesses she will be playing Adult Lily, if this means anything:
@agnesbruckner1 is probably gonna play adult "Lily" #OUAT #OnceUponATime

I’m gonna take a wild guess that, yes, she is an Adult Lily.
Meet Ursula. #QueensOfDarkness
