    I wouldn’t want Belle to die either.  Next to the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beauty is my favorite.  and I love Once’s Belle. She’s a strong character in her own right and seeing her this season, work with Ariel in Storybrooke,  that was awesome.  I feel like she could have a good storyline by herself without a connection to Rumple, if it’s done right.

    Dark Hollow proved that and the Outsider from season 2.

    that was nice.  yeah, I have a head canon too after Rumple’s sacrifice in the finale, Hook changed his mind about him too.

    Thank you! I woke up really early this morning and thought, I’d write something. I’m glad it made sense and you liked it.

    I did! I would be so upset if it was Neal……He has so much story potential. I hate deaths because they usually happen for no real reason except shock value

    Sometimes, they are.  Heroes did that a lot in season three but the thing with Heroes, was that Hiro could travel back and time and save people.  The good deaths, are the ones that aren’t done for shock value and ratings, but a part of a story that moves the story along.

    things were so nice in season one when we were just getting used to the show in general and each other and coming up with awesome theories, without a lot of ‘shipper talk.  it used to be so nice to come to the forums and talk about what’s going on. now, most of the time, I feel like I have to censor myself to avoid conflict.

    that’s just in case, there’s haters lurking about.

    I’ve written up metas in the past and gotten nasty comments from people. not a lot. just one. but it was enough for me to write a tiny disclaimer on the side of my blog.  but I hate getting flamed on for writing my opinion on my own blog.

    Favorite movie of all time. Actually did a whole college essay on Scarlett O’Hara as a heroine.

    yeah.  I know

    Oooooh. I do like that name. And red is also the color of the slippers in the MGM movie. Sorta tie in.

    Not true.  I haven’t watched but I’m familiar with the film.  I like Scarlett.

    And there, is a Scarlet Widow.  So you could drop the second ‘t’ and just have Scarlet to make it unique.

    Ha! The haters will come up with literally anything to say. When our predicted TLK happens, they’ll STILL be saying that CS aren’t TL. Guaranteed.

    You can’t really brush aside TLK when it happens.  But I remember when the photo of the first CS kiss came out, I remember reading, well, maybe it’s a dream sequence. And it wasn’t.

    @CaptainEala yeah I know it’s a little bit of what would you rather get smacked in the face with lol and if don’t want to be hit with ”Neal’s not there.” I would very much like to say Emma chose Hook because she wants him not because she couldn’t choose Neal anymore.

    I want this too.  As much as I don’t want Hook to die, if he does, I don’t want Emma to feel that she has to be with Neal because Hook’s not there and vise versa.  That’s really not a satisfying way to conclude the ‘fake’ love triangle for either ‘ship, mind you. I’d hope that Emma would make her choice abundantly clear before then.

    Also, I made a post about who I think might die based on the latest spoiler and other previous ones.

    if anyone is interested, I wrote a lengthy blog post breaking down based on recent spoilers before this one, who might be dying in 3B. Disclaimer: This is not an anti-Neal, hate post. This is simply putting together what we know is coming up in 3B and connecting the dots on who might die.

    Sometimes I dive in but I’m trying to gauge who actually wants to hear different opinions and who doesn’t. Sometimes I just want to be silly and break tension. Fandom should be fun so we have to respect we may have different ideas of what that means. We are people, fans of the show, not representatives of our ships.

    Omg, I could not have said it better.  I think this is something we’ve all forgotten about.  I used to feel very comfortable, going between the general discussion threads, reading other people’s theories and responding to stuff like that.  But with ‘ships basically taking over the forum, I don’t really do that anymore because I know, inevitably, it turns bad.

    We’re ‘shippers first before fans of the show and as much as I love my ‘ships, I’m foremost a fan of the show and I am genuinely interested what’s going in the over all story.  I mean, regardless of your ‘ship sails or not, I find it ridiculous to simply drop watching the show altogether.  (I get disappointed when the story or show gets cancelled before you even get to the real story).

    I know we’re all fans but it seems, here at least, ‘shipper fandom takes precedence over fandom unity and that’s really sad.  It wasn’t always like that.
