    You know, I could actually buy this theory….but, we’ve seen many many magic users on the show kill with magic. Regina, Rumple, Zelena, Cora, Pan, Ingrid, Mal, and even most recently Emma….and I really can’t recall all of the rules of magic, but I’m quite sure killing isn’t one of them…now raising the dead goes against the laws of magic for sure.

    What show is that?

    No, I meant the show with evil witch looking lady

    Quote

    Cw’s The Originals!

    The Evil Witch Lady is the so called supreme Original Witch Dahlia, who made a deal with her baby sister Esther a thousand years ago that in exchange for helping Esther become fertile, she’d gain the first born child of every generation born from that tree.

    To make a long story short….Dahlia has risen to take her newborn grand-niece Hope from her nephew Klaus and his baby mama Haley, and now it’s up to Klaus and his siblings Elijah and Rebekah to find a way to stop their evil auntie from taking baby Hope. However…Dahlia is like no villain they’ve ever faced, and is declared the supreme original dark witch.

    I may be a Once fan, but Dahlia makes OUAT Villains look like child’s play compared to what she’s doing.

    Ok…this whole Graham thing…I’m not justifying Regina raping him….it was a terrible thing to do that, yes, she is very responsible for. BUT…he did make a deal with the Evil Queen, and went back on it….had she blackmailed him, say she would kill every wolf in the kingdom if he didn’t co-operate, fine, but Graham knowingly made and broke a deal with the most dangerous, and more than likely evilest woman in all the land….and then tried to deceive her. It would have been so much better had he tried to make a run for it instead of going back.

    I’m just saying that making a deal with the Evil Queen was a bad move in the first place for Graham…breaking it and then trying to deceive her makes matters only worse….it was a dangerous game that Graham was playing and unfortunately lost. Poor guy should have just made a run for it.

    This is funny because the argument is that somehow Regina is responsible for all of her choices despite being manipulated, but Leopold was not. There was no way Leopold could have been manipulated if he didn’t a) read Regina’s diary b) lock her in a tower c) ask the Genie to find the man who she was ‘in love with’. It is interesting how people see two different things while watching the same source material.

    I think what’s interesting is how Regina fans want Regina to achieve redemption but don’t want to acknowledge the bad things that she needs the redemption for. It’s a paradox. How can Regina redeem herself if she’s done nothing wrong and she was just being manipulated. Regina is responsible for her own actions. She made the choices she did. She has to accept responsibility for them. “Rumple made me do it” isn’t accepting responsibility, it’s passing the blame. Rumple may have influenced Regina but at the end of the day, she chose to slaughter an entire village, she chose to send children to their deaths at the hand of the blind witch, she chose to make Graham her sex-slave.

    Regina is in the wrong in this situation. The question is how much in the wrong? Did Belle give consent? If not, then Regina is 100% in the wrong with what she did. If Belle did give consent, how far did that consent extend?

    Quote

    We acknowledge full well the evil Regina has committed, but we also know that her particular evil could have been well avoided had Rumpelstilskin left her alone, and not showed up to stop her. And Regina has acknowledged that she was a terrible person, hence she confessed her sins in 3×09 Saving Henry, she just doesn’t feel regret for them because she knows that would be the same as saying she regretted ever gaining Henry. So it’s not passing the blame, it’s giving a portion of the blame where it rightfully belongs, which is to Rumpelstilskin, who is even still quite proud of the monster he created.

    Had there been no Evil Queen, there’d be no slaughtered village, no children massacre, no sex slave Graham, though truth be told….ummm…that Graham case, the punishment was a bit extreme, but he did make a deal with the Evil Queen, then went back on it, tried to deceive her, and inadvertently mocked her intelligence……not a very smart move on his part really. I mean…punishment was bound to befall him.

    Now…do say how in the world could Regina have gotten Rumple to behave while she was away if she couldn’t use Belle? There would have been no way in doing so, and she basically did “an eye for an eye”…he threatened her soul mate, and she’s threatening his true love, though the only difference is…his true love is on it. It’s a dangerous game, but a game that had to be played if she has to go rescue Robin and Roland from Zelena, while also making sure Rumple doesn’t go on a killing spree while she’s away.

    And I wonder why Page 23 was rewritten the way that it was, but I’ve got my eye on either Cora or Rumple…mainly Cora.

    At the end of the day…I still say Belle knew exactly what she was getting herself into, and knew whom she was dealing with… “How Can I Help?” well, that’s more or less saying “I’m in.”

    One thing about it…we were shown that Leopold was a very jealous man, (The Genie Episode), and he clearly forbid Regina from ever stepping foot outside what’s technically now half of her kingdom, (Quite a Common Fairy). No matter how anyone wants to spin it, Regina was an eighteen year old prisoner who was forced to marry a man thrice her age, and mother the girl who ratted her out.

    And once again, had Rumple not stopped Regina on that path, none of that would have happened. And I think now we can even say the Author…had he not stopped Snowing on their way, Maleficent’s child wouldn’t have been stolen.

    And Leopold….despite this great king we saw, we also saw that this man was possessive…very possessive and quite sick if you ask me because why would you want to marry the daughter of your ex-fiancĂ©e, not to mention you’re old enough to be her grandfather????? It was more than just a mother to Snow….Leo wanted himself a younger woman. XD

    And as for Rumple….as we saw with what he did with Emma and the Sorcerer’s Hat, he did the same thing to Regina….he makes it seem like you have a choice, but he tells you enough to get you to choose what he wants you to choose, therefore it counts as manipulation, Rumple’s best game.

    Not to mention the fact that although Regina never wanted to become like Cora, Rumple ensured that every plan in Regina’s life not to become evil, failed, because he wanted his monster.

    Again, not taking Regina’s own responsibility because she could have chosen later in the game to change, but by then Rumple’s dark influence was too far rooted in her to pull out. I’d split the responsibility between Regina, Rumple, and Cora.

    Now, we could all be wrong, and it all comes out that all this was against their will because the Author changed Page 23!
