Me, watching a new anime/show/movie or reading a new book: 😄

My brain: No.

Me: 🤨

My brain: Don't do it.

Me: Don't do what???? 🤨🤨🤨🤨

My brain: No.

Me: ?

My brain: No.

Me: Wait. 🤔

My brain: Don't you dare.

Me, seeing two rivals/enemies in the anime/show/movie/book: Wait.

My brain: Nonononono

Me: New ship unlocked!! 😆😆

My brain: God damn it Kat! 😩 Can you stop shipping mlm/wlw rivals/enemies to lovers ships for five seconds???

A one time thing,

[oautincorrectquotes]

Hook: I think I'm falling for Emma.

Regina: Then get up.

The OUAT fandom needs a revival

[withgirl-sq]

Currently thinking how badly I want to watch a version of OUAT without Hook in it :'(

[victoriously-regal]

my OUAT ships tier list

I had to make like, six new categories because the options that were already there could not possibly describe half of these ships. There’s wayyy too much history behind each pair to simply put them in a row called ‘I like it’ or ‘I think they’re cute’. Anyway, lmk if you agree or disagree with my rankings.

Hook, queer ships and sexism in fandom.

I know us swanqueen shippers tend to collectively hate Hook and shit on him, but I personally do like the idea of a nice and supportive Hook that push Emma and Regina together, that is supportive of their relationship and is not just an overall shitty guy.

Like, I get that a lot of us hate him (honestly I find him boring each time I watch the show), but in fanfictions, do we really have to just have him play the bad guy role over and over again instead of giving him a nice role? Can't we write fix-its where he is different?

I mean, that's what fan work is about, isn't it? I get some of us just want to write angst and that's okay. But if we just want to write our sapphic ship, why do we have to make the canon male love interest a villain to do it?

It's an honnest question really. Because I know I've done it, and not just with Hook and swanqueen. Even if the canon straight ship is shitty and that's why i/we are shipping the queer non-canon ship instead, why automatically making the guy a villain? Why making a guy a villain, period ?

No really, I feel like a lot of queer fangirl shippers tend to make male love interests into villains. And I think that's because a lot of us are queer girls or at least afab people, who ended up with a lot of resentment towards men in general.

I'm not going in the "you're a lesbian because you hate men" territory. I'm just saying that we just had those experiences with men, that left us angry and wary. And like a lot of feminists that lost sight of what they are fighting for (equality between sexes. Not women supremacy) we sometimes let ourselves go down that hill of anger and trauma.

I think we need to ask ourselves why we do what we do, why we write what we write. Do we write that male character as a bad guy because the show really depicts all the red flags? Or is it because of our internalised bias about men?

Again, it's an honnest question. Sometimes the guy is just that bad. But is he, always? I think that's a good question to keep in mind.

Hello OUAT fandom, I bring you Emma’s emotional cheating in s4

[invisible-pink-toast]

they're just out here having incredible chemistry and romantic coded moments, as well as literally being ready to die for each other and raising children together. you know. platonically.

[pyxilate]

y’all I respect captainswan I really do but I just encountered this user on Reddit who called swanqueen stupid and now im just genuinely curious

Edit for clarification: I myself am a SQ shipper. But I do wanna know y’all’s opinions. Why do you like the ship you like? What’s your favorite moment between them? Gimme the deets.

[caliberrose]

I just need you to know how obsessed I am with your OUAT CC fic, like 11/10. I’m a huge swan queen nerd and I somehow stumbled across this series and I’m so for it, you seriously have the best writing!

Do you take prompts and are you open to writing swan queen? I really would love to read more, I truly love your works ♥️

🥰 awww! Thank you! I’m really loving writing it as well! :D I do take prompts, although I never get them 😅 I am open to writing Swan Queen, definitely ship them when I first watched/ rewatched the show. Would you want a story about them from any particular season or point in their relationship?

I’m currently working on like 4 other things, but because Swan Queen is also part of the OUAT fandom (as CC is) I’m sure I could post much sooner than later. Let me know any details/ specifications you’d like to see/ read or if it’s just a free for all. 😀 Thanks for the question/ comment! 🥰

my gay ass when my wlw otp are having a moment and one of their male love interests has to come along and ruin everything

[jessmalia]

what if i ship swanqueen swanfire and captainswan at the same time huh what are you gonna do then

[aotgylbk]

i understand emma in both ways like girl fell for two of the prettiest people on ouat

[clericxhood777]

Controversial opinion, but I think CaptainPan had more chemistry than CaptainSwan

Like, I get the concept, but it feels like forcing a bisexual man and a bisexual woman together, because girls and guys can't be friends

Meanwhile CaptainPan had a whole ass episode that gives the gay4bi vibe more

Can't bring Swanqueen into this, because we been knew that they were meant to be from S1

Random thought

If SwanQueen was canon and Regina disappeared like Hook did in Season 6, Emma never would have just assumed that she gave up on their relationship.

Am I the only one who thinks that she would know there was something wrong and that she was in trouble?
