    Least favorite ship (Canon):

    It was only for a brief period of time, but I was not a fan of May/Ward. I understand why they did it, but it still gave me an icky feeling. Especially since Ward was in love with Skye. I don’t know if this counts as canon because it was only for 1 episode, but I also hated Ward and Lorelei, because there was absolutely no basis for a real relationship.

    Day 16- Least Favourite Crack Ship (Non-canon)

    SwanQueen. It works great as a friendship, but not as a romantic pairing.

     

    Yep. I get it that they’re two beautiful, powerful, intelligent, protective women, but I think they would embody these traits more as BFF’s then as a couple.

    So this song, called “Why Cruella, Why” was written by a girl I know, Patrisia. She wrote it a couple years ago, and all the talk of Cruella, Mal, and Ursula made me think of it. Right now, we don’t know much about Cruella’s background, but I’d be interested to see if her relationship with any of the characters fits well with this song.

    Here’s the link to Patrisia singing it, if you want to check it out. The video quality isn’t great, but she has a very good voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f1L6Vm07Zc

     

    “Don’t you love to see me fail?
    If it was storming out, would you leave me in the hail?
    When the tough gets going would you rescue me?
    Are you only around when there are perks because that’s how it seems to be.

    When no one else is around, we talk all the time
    We connect, we relate, and even laugh
    But when your people come back to you
    Its like I’m invisible, but there’s nothing I can do

    When push comes to shove I could tell
    You will be my Cruella de vil
    And I know its foolish, but I can’t handle
    All of the constant acts of evil
    So why Cruella, why?

    You laugh at me and put me down
    You play with my emotions and spread lies all over town
    I know your plots to ruin me
    Yes it is sad, but I guess it was meant to be

    Oh the things you do make me think of you with so much pain in my heart
    You’re like night and day I can’t tell if being a lie is your art
    The lies and manipulation………..I just can’t bare
    It’s so pathetic that most of the time I swear

    When push comes to shove I could tell
    You will be my Cruella de Vil
    and I know its foolish but I cant handle
    all of the constant acts of evil
    So why Cruella, why?
    I know your jokes are not sincere
    All this resentment is not supposed to be here
    The only way for me to make the torture end will be when I ask
    Why Cruella, Why?

    When push comes to shove I could tell
    You will be my Cruella de Vil
    And I know its foolish, but I cant handle
    All of the constant acts of evil
    So Why Cruella, Why?”

    Favorite Ship (Canon):

     

    Fitzsimmons!! I could spend hours going over why I love these two so much! Fitz’s absolute dedication to Simmons, even willing to die for her!, is perfect and beautiful in every way. It may take a little while, but I think Simmons will admit that she is in love with him too.

    I also really like Philinda. I really believe that those two have a past, and I wish they would show us Coulson and May pre-Bahrain. I’m sure there was a relationship there at one point!

    And I shipped Skyeward pretty hard up until Turn, Turn, Turn. I liked Skye’s ability to make Grant a kinder and happier person, which I truly think she did, but he had a pretty dark past to begin with, and he was in far to deep to step away from Garrett/Hydra. I don’t ship them currently, but if the writers give Ward a really strong redemption arc, I could see myself shipping it again.

    So, as you can see, I ship pretty much anything that’s canon. Oops 😛

    @RG, are you forgetting Hook + the floor? They spent a lot of time together in season 2!

    I liked Graham with Emma. Not true love material, but they were very sweet together.

    Least Favorite Villain:

     

    Whitehall. When a character is introduced as Nazi, you know it’s not going to be good!  Whitehall was just plain evil. His only motivation for his actions was pure selfishness. He tortured innocent people for his own gain, and he had to force people to work for him if they didn’t do it willingly (the ‘compliance’ thing). He didn’t even have a good sense of humor!

    From the first episode we met him, I said ‘this guy needs to die…now.’ It took them a while to do it, but I’m so glad he’s dead. It looks like Coulson is our resident ‘villain killer.’

    Least Favorite Ship:

     

    Philora. Aurora really bugged me. I never really saw what made Phillip so in love with her.

    Favorite Villain:

    So, I’m deciding not to consider Ward a villain, or else I would talk about him here.

    I actually enjoyed Garrett as a villain. Good person? No…that’s what makes him a villain, but he was everything a good villain should be. He was manipulative, snarky, and ruthless. And he had a tragic-ish backstory, but not one that made you pity him more than hate him, like many Once villains I could mention. And he had the funniest death scene I’ve ever seen…it was brilliant.

    This might be an…unusual opinion, but I really like Swanfire and CaptainSwan. I agree with the reasons already stated by anyone shipping either of the two couples. I did see Neal’s death as a cop-out by the writers…her relationship with Hook would’ve had much more validity if she had chosen him instead of Neal, because even if Hook was her true choice, the viewers don’t get to see her make that decision because they killed him off. If she had chosen to get together with Hook, while maintaining a loving, trusting friendship with Neal, I would’ve been perfectly okay with that, because she would’ve been happy, and Henry would’ve had his father. But I definitely think that both Neal and Hook love Emma, and that she loves both of them in her own way.

    But my Once OTP up until the second half of Season 3 was Rumbelle. I loved that Belle was the light to Rumple’s darkness, and I thought that their relationship was unique and beautiful…and that through loving the other person, it made you better. But then that got ruined with all of Rumple’s lies 🙁

    Least Favorite Guest Character:

     

    Lorelei. She was a brat and a coward. She hid behind the men she manipulated while they did all the dirty work for her.  She had absolutely no consideration for anyone else. She was so cocky throughout the episode, but the second Lady Sif caught her, she turned into to a sniveling little child. *sigh*…not impressed.
