So this is an article I could have sworn I typed ages ago but apparently did not. I found that out when I wanted to link people to it on coolsinger198's poll lol. Coolsinger198 also made an article on this topic so if anyone is interested in hearing the opposing viewpoint I recommend the article; link She explains her opinions without insulting any character and that's always cool.

So I'll start by saying that I don't think it is 100% Gold's fault that Regina went to the dark side. I think there are other people who got her there and I do think that (naturally) it was her fault too. Not completely...

1. Regina Mills

Anyone who has seen me on this spot probably knows that I love Madam Mayor more than I probably actually should. :P And a few people probably want to know why. A while back I wrote an article on the matter, I've been meaning to re-type that so I'll do so here.

For one I love the complexity and back story she gives to Disney's original Evil Queen. I like how Once took a character who tried to kill a girl simply for looking better than her and turned her into a character whose mother abused her (verbally for sure and implied physically) and killed her love. I like how she's not...

It was happening again. The loss of someone she loves dearly. She'd always be second best to everyone; Henry, Rumple, and now Robin.

Served her well for opening up to the man...

For opening up to anyone.

Much less a filthy thief. First he'd stolen her heart--figuratively speaking anyhow--physically she'd handed it right over, then he lost the God forsaken thing, then he got it back (held it lovingly in his hands), and then he broke it.

She should have known. But honestly how mad could be at the man. She probably would've done the same be it Dan who'd come back and wrapped his arms around her.

And...

Before any assumptions are made; I love OQ with all my heart, but this had to be done!

Robin looked over at Regina. She was sitting in the diner looking rather lonely.

Perhaps he should have spent less time on his clothing...

But it was his first genuine date with the mayor, so he had to look at his best--clad in an unbuttoned tux, a white shirt, and sunglasses--that outta do it.

Mustering up all the courage he had, Robin made his way over to the booth. As it would seem, the woman hadn't even noticed his presence. He leaned in closer to the woman. And in what was probably the creepiest tone ever...

AU where all the characters are still alive.

Blue had only realized the error of her ways...the mistake she had made, after the deed was done. It was quite a terrible thing, she honestly couldn't remember a time when she screwed up more than she just had. But by all means it was far to late to undo the damage that she had allowed to come forth.

Cora had already made out and sent the Valentine's Day cards.

And by all means, Blue was the one who gave her permission to do so. Blue's intention's were pure...innocent. She had simply wanted to keep the batty woman busy. But right when Blue saw a card...

I kind of just wanted to make a silly and ridiculous New Year's fanfic.

Sitting alone in her house Regina decided to make herself a list of New Year's resolutions. None of which actually pertained to her or anything. Nope. She had done enough changing for one year. These resolutions she compiled for the residents of Storybrooke, because she knew exactly what flaw they should work on. And Hook's 'My goals are to pick up twice as many chicks and grow my goatee out thrice as sexily' just didn't cut it for the mayor. So the mayor sat there writing out a list that read thusly;

"Get a real job and...

Every Week after the eps aired, Once Upon A Time Co-Creators answered some question through this official once upon a time podcast, you can listen all of it in here:

This is some highlight of the conversation:

Snow & The Crow

Eddy: Ginny is fearless. She has worked with more animals on this show and has had more of them…’go to the bathroom’ on her than any actress probably ever. She’s really great with the animals. I remember even in the pilot, when we did the little bird, we actually had her catch it and fly off. It’s great and that crow looks scary! I don’t think I would...

Boom after boom, the thunder got louder and the rain began to pound harder on the roof of the Mayoral Mansion. Regina tossed and turned in her bed, finally deciding to watch the dark room become illuminated by the flashes of lightning, her back to the open window. Her eyes studied the pattern of the wallpaper every now and then when she could see it and she felt her eyelids becoming heavy finally. Suddenly the silhouette of a human body was cast on the wall by a flash of lightning. Gasping loudly, Regina flipped over to find nothing, or no one, in front of the window. She...

After seeing many of these I decided I'd type one too. This is not just for the prettiest women but also my hottest men as well. I just lumped it in to one article.

10. Tamara

Though I'm on and off with her character I think Tamara is quite pretty. I love her hair, I don't know how she can make it that perfect, like hot damn I can't even get my hair to stop doing that frizzy thing unless I spend like 20 minutes with a hair straighter. I mean her hair is just so long silky and smooth. I also like her lips, just something about them. Her face in general is well structured; eyes, nose, lips are...

Many people (including the writers) seem to overlook the Blue Fairy but the truth is that she is one of the three most powerful people in Storybrook both because of her magic and because of the persuasive power she has over people. This article is meant to take a closer look at her involvement in the story and the effect her actions and prejudice has had on the lives of the main characters.

So there is no confusion the regular font is fact (taken mostly from OUATwiki) and italicized is my opinion.


The Blue Fairy and her dealings with Rumplestiltskin

"The Return"

Baelfire in an attempt to save...

Like all other OUAT fans, I have recently been binge-watching the fourth and fifth seasons on Netflix. Season 6 can't come soon enough! As I was watching one of the later episodes of Season 4, "Heart of Gold", Regina said a line to Rumple that I could not stand:

"You made me a monster! But I won't let you do the same to Emma."

She has also said this line a couple of other times throughout the series.

I do admire Regina's character development. I really do. Having friends who cared about her and Henry made her her best self. She has changed for the better, although maintaining her sass. ;)

However,...

I was in love with Outlaw Queen from the start. The idea of "what could of been" is so tragically romantic. I could picture Regina being happy had she just stepped through that door. I could picture Roland as her child and what wonderful parents her and Robin would have made if only she had taken that leap of faith.

However once OQ actually became reality it fell flat for me. It was too easy, too simple. There was no conflict or emotional tension. Don't get me wrong it was great to see Regina finally happy and Robin, Roland and Regina are too adorable together. Honestly though it started to...

So I’ve been working on this over the Hiatus, I started it like a month ago and decided to finish it today. I think that’s pretty good timing considering that today the Hiatus ends.
So, here’s why I like every character in OUAT. I do like every character in the show (excluding: Blue Fairy and Nova). With an emphasis on the LIKE, some specific characters I love, but I LIKE pretty much all of them.
What makes a good character are these points:
-    The character is well developed: They have a good backstory and their character stays consistent* and at least somewhat realistic....

Besides the fact that it's both entertaining and drama saving I do have reasons as to why I ship everything! And here they are. Not even gonna lie this is probably my most poorly written article ever. If you didn't take it seriously, no hard feelings, neither did I.

Fariy Queen (Regina and Tink)
I started with this one because it's my current OTP from the show. At first I really kind of hated it for no reason actually, I just didn't like it. After watching the episode and seeing how Tinkerbell went out of her way to help Regina was just sweet. I also liked how Gina tried to save Tink from making...

I know this topic is really old lol but I've been meaning to type this article for a long time, I've just been to lazy to do so. As of late I haven't seen many people on fanpop who still insist that Regina doesn't love Henry, but trust me on tumblr there are still a good number of them--especially on this blog called 'anti-ReginaMills'. So I decided to type this up.

For starts all Regina really did was fight to keep Henry. In the first season she was trying to get Emma out of Storybrooke mainly to keep her from getting Henry. The main reason she hated Emma was because she felt that Emma was...

First, I just want to make something extremely clear. I may not have any personal experience with some of these illnesses and I am aware that as a result I am speaking from a position of privilege. I will do my best to treat this article with the delicacy and sensitivity it deserves. Please let me know if anything comes out as offensive and know that it was most certainly not intentional. Another thing to note: I am not a professional and do not have the ability to actually diagnose these illnesses, everything in this article is entirely speculation and hypothesizing on my behalf.

I will start...

I am not a lawyer and know no more about law then what I have seen on crime serials and read in old P.I. novels. However because this topic is still an area of much discussion both in our modern culture and more importantly in this fandom I will try to keep my arguments within the confines of the rulebook that our justice system has labored to perfect for so long.

The question is of course "Is killing ever justified". It is a question that raises it's head at least ones in any serious debate started at this club. The act of murder weather it is committed by one character or another always has...

This is an article I’ve been meaning to type for quite a while now. It’s about some of the double standards I see within the fandom in general (not just on fanpop but also on tumblr and even youtube). I plan on comparing Gina’s actions to Gold’s and the good side to the bad side in general. I’m going to try to do so from an unbiased perspective.

Part 1: Gold & Gina
First off and probably the most widely debated is how it’s okay for Gold to rip people’s hearts out and kill them but it’s not when Gina does it, or vice versa. So to start off I’ll compare two scenes; the one...

cora is ashamed of her father for being so poor and she runs away where she encounters rumple. he does not tell her his name. he says he can help her become wealthy . he says there's a man with a good title. a prince. his name is henry. henry grew up rather spoiled and is eager to have gold and lots of it but his father can only give him so much. cora then meets henry and after being told how much henry loves gold, cora lies and says that she can spin straw into gold. henry decides to give her a chance so he and his father lock her in a cell. realizing what a stupid mistake she's made, she...

We all agree that the the villains of OUAT are evil despicable human beings. So why to we love them so much and more inportantly who is the most likable? The discussion has been going on since the beginning of the show. We all have our favorite villain. It doesn't matter if your team Rumple or team Gina our bias tends to send reason running out the door. Well, I've created a solution that can't be disputed. Why? Because it's math. My villainy equation removes all the favoritism and bias and leaves only the truth. The truth behind why we love these truly despicable people so very much.

Here’s...
