Re: Once Upon a Time

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT--I still ship Belle and Rumple, but then, I haven't watched an episode since Neal died, just lurked in the Rumbelle fandom with occasional forays into SwanFireQueen as a brot3 or OT3.
I'm not sure I'd call Emma/Hook, Belle/Rumple, or Regina/Robin abusive, exactly. But I don't think any of those relationships work, not as currently written. They're all drama-fodder, and all six of the characters involved have done thoughtless or reprehensible things that are framed as romantic. And it doesn't help that I like pairings best and ship them hardest when they bring out the best in each other. I can think of ways to write all three canon pairings (and SwanQueen, and Warrior Royals, and Frozen Swan, and SwanFire, and the list goes on) in ways that bring out the best in everyone involved, instead of prepping them to star in Jerry Springer: Fairytale-Land Edition. I might even like Jerry Springer fairytales, but the show frames their big three couples as sweepingly romantic rather than desperately in need of therapy. The disconnect between what the characters do, and how their actions are framed, bothers me so fucking much.

Everything wrong with OUAT in a nutshell.
