i just read the worst fanfic of all time and the context is emma breaking off her engagement because hook was physically abusive to her (???) and one of the excerpts include “When a woman says ‘no’,” Regina plunged her hand into Killian’s back and yanked out his heart, “she means no.” HEFJIBDRDV. i will send you the link if i have to it's just so bad it includes emma yelling at her parents with stuff you debunked like giving her up to save her life from regina. sq shippers really hate emma omg
Yes. SwanQueen and Evil Regals 100% hate Emma Swan. Well, they love season 1 Emma but they never wanted her to change. Emma is only a stand in for themselves. They would much rather see Emma under Regina’s heel and being called “idiot” by Regina than seeing Emma’s complete joy with Killian Jones calling her “amazing, beautiful, strong etc”. And this is based on the edits I’ve had the misfortune of seeing on Instagram because no one respects tags over there. The “art” they make would have people’s heads spinning if the gender roles were reversed but it’s somehow perfectly acceptable as long as it’s Regina. It’s OK because they find Regina hot and they themselves want to be abused by her.
If SwanQueeners had an ounce of honesty and even remotely tried to follow/understand canon (and acknowledge where the writing got it wrong), then they'd know that Emma should be 100x more angry at Regina for abusing Henry, making her an orphan and just overall treating her and her loved ones like they are lesser. But those that favor Regina aren’t honest about canon at all or wish to recognize how heinous the writing was when it came to how the other characters handled Regina. That and they’d have to come to terms with how crappy of a character Regina is.
And it’s really hysterical having Regina standing against domestic violence when Regina was the one that got away with so much abuse. Regina abused Henry and Snow. Regina also kept a sex slave (Graham in the EF)n and forced him into a relationship with her against his will (cursed Graham). I actually talked recently about how Regina is more like to abuse her partner than Killian Jones: CaptainSwan abusive marriage debunked.
I mean which one has struck Emma out of jealousy? Or anger? Or just enjoyed being cruel to her? Their queen!

So they can write all of the AU and highly OOC fanfic they want but at the end of the day canon reigns supreme. Because using their logic, Regina is the one more likely to abuse Emma because Regina has a history of doing so even after her redemption and she was never consumed by evil in the first place.

I'm rewatching ouat in french to practice my language skills and oh my god is this show way worse than i remember.
Back when i was watching it when i was 15 so much stuff didn't exactly register as abuse or as domestic violence/consent issues etc and now as an adult I'm like oh!!! Oh no!!!
sweet jesus lm on the verge of writing e an essay about the ways this show was both deeply disturbing and a prime example of the problems with manufactured faux girl boss 2010s feminism. Its literally words not actions. yeah our female characters will have a SWORD and cool powers but they keep going back to their abusers and consistently blur the lines between love and abuse. We can excuse literally anything as long as people can get a magic kiss out of a relationship, even torture. (true loves kiss is a disney thing not necessarily an actual fairytale thing did anyone past season 2 do any research into folklore or did they just watch the disney back catalogue?)
There are so many bloody excellent fairytales out there re angela carters book of fairytales, jack zipes red riding hood and other french fairytales, anything by marina warner etc, but they just switch to rehashing disney tropey bollocks that doesn't work with suspension of disbelief when you have actual great actors saying the nonsense about the mcguffin of the weak and unicorns giving people vision and playing it completely straight, when that kind of dialogue and storyline only works when there's cartoon dancing rabbits and princesses with magic hair and singing lions. It just comes across as silly and where it fails as opposed to buffy is that buffy realises that its a bit ridiculous and LEANS IN and isnt afraid to crack jokes at its own expense regularly and not take itself so goddamn seriously.
And yet! And yet i have an emotional attachment to these characters and can't help but have ideas for how things could have been done better if the writers hadn't taken to choosing plot points by spinning a wheel of soap opera cliches and seeing which one they land on. I genuinely love these characters and I wish the show had managed to not lose the plot and instead became nore akin to buffy with the monster of the week/ mystery of the week/slice of life but with magic story format. Every episode after season one feels like it was written by someone who had a drunk friend summarise the previous episode but hadn't actually watched it themselves, yet it takes itself wayyyy to seriously.
All in all perfect show for me to annoy my best friend with when we have our drunk movie nights, i can't wait for her to watch the new york episode where you realise the family tree is more of a wreath. We need to talk more about how fucked up the media we grew up with was, not to cancel it or to say it was worthless but so that we can deconstruct the weird messages we recieved growing up and realise how it influenced our world view so hopefully we can unlearn some of this shit and do better.
Also #swanqueen.
Regina deserved better... 🥺😢😭

SQW 10 – Day 2 – Movie night
I know this is late! I am sorry been having interviews etc and been sick so hey! But it’s here enjoy!
AO3
 --
 Emma took a breath before approaching her wife in her office. She was hoping she’d be agreeable to actually come home at a human time tonight.
  “Regina?” Emma knocked three times, before walking in to the office.
  The mayor was up to her eyes in paper work, it had been like this for months, she was making herself sick and Emma wasn’t having it anymore.
  “What is it Emma? I’m busy. I won’t be home for dinner.”
  “You’re never home for dinner.” Emma muttered as she closed the door.
  “Excuse me?” Regina snarled, looking up from her work and putting her glasses from her face onto the papers in front of her.
  “I said you’re never home for dinner.”
  “Emma, I have work, I’m busy.”
   “No. Regina, you’re making yourself sick and tonight you are coming home at a normal fucking time.” Emma demanded
  “Oh? Are you going to make me?”
  “No. Regina I expect you to do as I ask because I love you and I’m worried.”
  “And if I don’t?” Regina raised an eyebrow
  “Then I’ll drag you out this office myself and I will be sleeping on the couch.”
  “What?” Regina gasped, as she stood up slowly and walked towards her wife “You would sleep on the couch over me working? That’s ridiculous!”
  “No it’s not ridiculous Regina, you are working way too much, I have hardly seen the past few months, and Henry has hardly seen you. Regina you’re six months fucking pregnant, with twins at that! It’s not just yourself you need to worry about anymore, you can’t be working like this when they’re born, you are making yourself ill...I mean when is the last time you ate something? Or slept?”
  “Emma...” Regina sighed
  “I’m just worried about you. My wife who works so god damn hard and so much to make this town happy, that she forgets to take care of herself...” Emma paused, as she walked a few steps towards Regina taking a hold of her at the side of her body, rubbing up and down her arms. “Please just come home tonight, Regina please, I’m begging you and this isn’t the place I like to beg.” Emma trembled with worry, as the tears somehow started all on their own
  “Okay, darling, okay. I’ll be home, I’m sorry Emma...” Regina wiped the tears from the blonde’s face with her knuckles, holding Emma’s chin in the crook of her other hand “I never meant to worry you so much, I didn’t-“
  “I know babe, you didn’t know, I should have said something sooner.”
  “Yes. Now what time do you want me home at and I’ll make it my priority.” Regina smiled
  “Say no later than six?” Emma asked, hoping Regina wouldn’t actually leave it till the last minute, to come home at.
  “Okay, I’ll be there at half past five. What are you planning for dinner anyway?”
  “I was going to make my home made burgers and fries, if you’re good with that?”
  “Well considering it’s about the only thing you can cook without burning down the house other than grilled cheese and that doesn’t count as proper foof, then yes, but you only do that on special occasions?” Regina frowned, unsure what warranted it to be a special occasion, so to speak.
  “Well it is a special occasion. I’m getting my wife back.”
   --
 Emma already had the food plated up, when Regina walked in the door.
  The mayor took off her coat, hanging it up by the door and putting her bag down, Regina walked into the kitchen still in her heels and leaned against the door.
  “Something smells good.”
  Emma just chuckled “Yeah, it’s ready, come and sit down. Cream soda?”
  “Please. Where’s Henry?” Regina frowned seeing only two plates, and then smiling when she noticed the candles “Is this a date night?”
  “He’s with Violet, Luna, Alex and Simon, he’ll be back at god knows what time, he’s going out drinking, and yes it is indeed madam mayor.”
  “This is beautiful darling.” Regina smiled, walking up behind Emma and giving her a kiss on the cheek. “You were right I needed to not work so hard.” Regina went and sat down at the table and Emma bought the drinks over, a cream soda for Regina and a root beer for herself.
  “How are our little munchkins today?” Emma asked as she sat beside her wife
  “Kicking. A fucking lot.” Regina sighed as they both started to dig into their food.
  Over the next hour, they talked a lot, they spoke about cutting down Regina’s work hours considering she was pregnant and would probably deliver early, Emma wanted Regina to be under as little stress as possible, Regina actually agreed. Then they just laughed and talked until they both finished their food, they just relaxed.
  --
  Regina sat on the couch waiting for Emma to start the movie “You’ve gone all out tonight, even putting on my favourite movie.” Regina smiled, sitting in her panties and a flannel top with her hands rubbing soothing circles on her pregnant belly.
  Emma put on the first film, they had about 10 films set out, so they could watch a few, the first film they chose was ‘Carol’, then they had ‘imagine me and you’ and a whole load of other lesbian films.
  The blonde came and sat on the couch that Regina had now magicked to expand, both width and length ways, mainly so they could be more comfy.
  Emma sat at the top, opening her legs for Regina to sit between at which the brunette did. Regina then leaned back into Emma’s arms, holding onto her wife and Emma kissed the top of Regina’s head “I love you Gina.”
  “I love you too, Darling.” Regina smiled, sounding sleepy
  “You better not fall asleep on me.” Emma chuckled
  “I won’t.”
 Emma just shook her head, knowing full well that by the time the sex scene came on the television, Regina would be asleep.
  “God Cate is so fucking hot.” Regina smirked
  “Excuse me?” Emma teased
  “Oh not as hot as you dear, never as hot as you, but you can’t deny the very fact that she is gorgeous.”
  Emma just laughed and nodded in agreement.
  Emma couldn’t help but laugh softly to herself, when she heard the soft snore for Regina as she cuddled into her and soon enough Emma was fast asleep too, her arms wrapped around her wife, one hand on Regina’s pregnant belly and the other hand tangled up in the brunette’s, wedding rings sitting on top of each other.
 -- 
Henry came home a little earlier than expected, just as the credits of the film started.
  He knew to come in quietly, just in case his moms were fighting again, especially with Regina working all the hours she was and her crazy hormones from the pregnancy, however when he walked over towards the couch he saw the credits from the film and then saw how much bigger the couch was than before which made him frown.
  Henry then couldn’t help but smile, seeing his Moms cuddled up on the couch; he grabbed a warm blanket and threw it over the two woman, before turning off the television.
  He didn’t know how but somehow he knew Emma had convinced his brunette mother to at least come home early tonight and it was a start, for her to cut down her hours properly.
  Henry watched for a few minutes before, kissing each mother on the forehead and making his way up to his bed, leaving his Moms to sleep. He loved seeing the both of them cuddled up together, it always reminded him about how lucky he was to have this as his family.

not to completely derail your mlm ship parallels discussion but as we seem to have very similar taste in ships do you happen to have any wlw ships that you enjoy? they are a nightmare to find idk if i’m just consuming the wrong media or what but WHERE are the meaningful relationships between women/nonbinary people :/
the pickings are truly slim because female characters are RARELY fleshed out enough in popular media to ship while nonbinary ones struggle to even exist. in the mcu i feel like everyone should see it coming when i say carolmaria ... they ARE soulmates and if marvel does anything to mess that up in the marvels ... they’re meant for each other. they are wives. co-mothers. best friends. the perfect pair .. the way their story parallels stevebucky too makes me so :( and i know everyone on mcu stan twitter rags on the mcu tv shows from before disney+ was a thing (cloak and dagger, agents of shield, etc) BUT i actually kind of liked runaways? it’s on disney+ and hulu for streaming and it features a cast of majority bipoc main characters which includes a bisexual japanese american girl. she gets with another one of the female characters in season 2 i think? and they’re very cute. the representation isn’t perfect and the plot does get a little corny but it’s a cute ship with cute moments and it’s the first wlw relationship i saw in a superhero series off the cw- and this one is actually in the spotlight for more than five seconds! the ending of the last season they have up rn is a little unresolved but i think it’s worth watching because i view the ship as intended to be endgame. deanoru is also canon in the comics so you can read about it too! for books .... the first ship i thought of was piperbeth from percy jackson for some reason (isn’t piper canonically sapphic now?) LMFAO. but for actual suggestions: i haven’t personally read one last stop yet and i’m a little wary of it because the author is white with a reputation of kinda stumbling when writing bipoc but i think the general consensus has been that it’s good? i liked gideon the ninth and the mercies too. unfortunately it’s just really hard to find sapphic romances/ships that aren’t either toxic as hell, barely have any media together, or have 0 fandom content. like i love maria/nat and natsharon in theory but i’ve tried reading the fics and they always either bring up steve during sex or are just ... weird. i struggle finding good content myself. it’s rough out here for us 💔 but i hope some of my suggestions help and if anyone else has any feel free to hop in the replies.

having powerful and complex thoughts about grandma!swanqueen again. I just KNOW regina is so doting whenever lucy visits and she’s totally one of those grandmas who are making u snack after snack like “are they feeding you over there?? you should eat more”. emma is ALWAYS telling embarrassing stories about henry and that makes her lucy’s favorite partner in crime.
cannot get enough of the image of emma and regina both embracing domesticity and enjoying the family life finally. they probably flirt in the whatsapp chat like:
regina: Buenas días, familia.
emma: it is every time I see ur beautiful face 😏
henry: there are children in this chat (me)

What are some non-sexual activities they do together? What are some things they don't agree on? And who is the big/little spoon? (For me Emma is the big one cause Regina feels safe and Emma likes it) I honestly love your metas so... 😅❤ (oh for SwanQueen obviously)
thank you my good dude! i love these ones <3 as always, you Know i'm about to get carried away and ramble
first of all, for activities they do together i'm just gonna subtly link this hc list about emma and regina doing crafts because honestly it all still stands
for some different ones though:
due to both of their busy jobs, most of the free time emma and regina have as a couple is pretty domestic - it would be boring, but after the lives they've lived, that kind of boring is really, really nice. getting in from work to cook dinner together, joking with henry, sharing a glass of wine and watching netflix before bed...
(i do think the swan mills family have to have a roster of who gets to pick what they watch every night though, bc these bitches will Not agree)
on the weekends, they'll often go for walks as a family, either along the seafront or hiking in the woods and they'll just talk and decompress from the week. emma always brings a bunch of snacks in her bag, and sometimes she and henry will get carried away having fake sword fights with big sticks they find. regina thinks this is ridiculous but Endures it and secretly does find it entertaining (sometimes she'll use a little subtle magic to either put a stop to it or help one of them win). then it's home for a home-cooked family lunch.
they're both open to trying new things though, especially activities the other one loves. i firmly headcanon that after things settle down, regina starts going to the stables and horseriding again as a hobby, and once or twice emma comes along to better understand her wife and just see what all the fuss is about. she's definitely Not Great at it, and pretty clumsy on horseback, but she likes the animals and she loves seeing how relaxed and free regina is there.
usually emma just plays henry's video games with him, but a few times they drag regina into it - who is less than impressed but secretly starts to enjoy it - and then at some point both emma and regina's competitive streaks kick in to the point henry will hear them playing and goading each other long after he's gone to his room
they also really prioritise their relationship as it develops, because they had such a stressful and unconventional start (lol) and their work lives are fairly intense.
like, emma's never really been one for proper dates or romantic gestures but she knows how much regina appreciates and values them so she goes ALL OUT and she ends up really enjoying it. and so little traditions get established - they make sure to have date night once a week at least. usually it's pretty simple, dinner out at a nice restaurant or even just Granny's, but they both make sure to dress up and sometimes one will buy flowers or a bottle of wine.
as for big spoon/little spoon, you are 50000% Right.
most of the time, emma is the big spoon. they both just feel more comfortable and natural that way and i agree, regina feels so safe when she's wrapped up in emma's arms - they both always have an amazing sleep when they fall asleep this way.
(forgive me for Going Off with this but they're actually big cuddlers. they're not too physically affectionate in public, but at home, well.
henry jokes that they're sickening but he secretly likes it, because it's a reminder of how much his family truly love each other.
regina is actually so physically affectionate, she loves being touched and held and playing with emma's hair. if they're on the couch together, she Will end up with her head on emma's shoulder or sitting in her lap . emma actually loves this about her, even if she teases her for it - it makes her feel so loved, and she feels honoured to be shown a side of regina that no one else gets.)

I love swanqueen, which is probably because OUAT was terrible at consistent characterization, so it was essentially free real estate. But they absolutely did Hook dirty by ‘redeeming’ him and essentially turning him into Emma Swan’s hype man. It’s a crime that he didn’t get an equally evil boytoy of his own
Exactly! Like, seriously, Once Upon a Time should have had Emma and Regina as the main couple as Henry’s two moms because that just made way too much sense. Like I’d have been so down for that. And then, like you said, Hook needed an evil boytoy who actually understood him and would let him be a pirate and not have to conform to domestic life (Jafar please). Hell, while I’m at it, they should have spared Neal and Graham and had those two be the scruffy sexy two dads. It would have been awesome! Two sets of gay parents, and gay pirate sexy times in the background.
I mean, the straights already had Snowing and Rumbelle. They didn’t need CaptainSwan, OutlawQueen, and both Neal and Graham to die for heterosexual romance angst.

OUAT AU please!!! That's the first thing on my mind when I saw the list lol
This is actually one of my favorite outlines to rediscover. It’s kind of vague and has some major plot holes that need to be backfilled, but I’m thrilled that someone is interested in it. 
I’m pretty sure this was meant to dovetail with the supercorp/swanqueen snippets I’ve already posted, which basically has Kara cast as Emma’s daughter, and Lena as Regina’s adopted daughter, and Kara has some sort of prophetic power that draws her and her mother to Storybrooke, where they quickly, albeit reluctantly on Emma’s part, settle in and Kara becomes Lena’s best friend. 
So here’s a little bit about Lena’s backstory and sets us up for the bulk of the story. There’s more to it, but it wouldn’t make much sense without knowing these bits:
Lena's mother is a fae princess. When she learns the prophecy that a child born of magic, she and the despotic fae queen believe Lena is that child. Her mother runs, stealing both into the human world. When Lena is four, the fae court comes for her mother. Unable to fight them off, she evanesces Lena far away, and that's the last Lena sees her (the last she hears is her scream). The fae still hunt for Lena, but being in the foster system kept her moving enough that they couldn’t track her down, and when Regina adopts her two years later, the magic of the town hides her from the fae’s scrying. 
Two years later, Regina adopts Lena, and slowly realizes that this human girl she brought home isn't so human after all. She helps Lena learn her small bits of magic, and indulges her quirks and respects her independence. Plants grow with her around. Domestic animals keep a wide berth, but in the rare instances Regina goes with Lena to the woods, she sees how the wildlife gravitates towards her. Not affectionate, just... trusting. They linger, and sometimes even trail after her. Even the trees seem to bend towards her if she lingers in one place long enough. When Lena turns twelve, her power begins to manifest. Her nightmares shake the house, and one night she actually sleepwalks, power swirling around her and pulling things apart. Regina binds her power, and trains her in earnest to help her control it. At 15 Kara learns of a prophecy for Storybrooke. She finds the book, and realizes her dreams had been true all along. She and Lena find a hidden portal for residents to come back and forth from the Enchanted Forest. They spend an entire year there with their parents, learning the true history of their town, and the events that led to its creation. 
When a great threat looms, the residents of Storybrooke all race for the portal, hoping to take refuge in the town. Only Lena, the child of magic, realizes that with the portal open the threat will simply follow them through. So she remains behind to close the portal herself. 
At the last moment, Kara breaks free from Emma’s restraining arms and jumps back into the Enchanted Forest mere seconds before the portal closes. 
She would rather be stuck in a foreign, dangerous realm without her mother than let Lena remain behind alone.

Fic Meme
Tagged by the incomporable @walkthegale
Name: Cass
Fandom(s): At the moment it consists of: The Worst Witch (2017), The Bletchley Circle, Call the Midwife, with a dash of Legend of Korra and the return to one of my teenage obssesions Who’s the Boss?
Where you post: AO3 and Tumblr
Most Popular One Shot (by kudos) this year: Where I Sleep which is a cozy kyalin domestic caretaking fic bc I’m nothing if not thoroughly on brand. 
Most Popular One Shot (by kudos) overall: Take a Look At My Girlfriend which is a Michaela/Laurel from htgawm fic (written before canon made me get bitter at Laurel) which is a fake dating 5+1 fic. Once again, pretty on brand for me. 
Most Popular Multi-Chapter (by kudos) this year: Well I only wrote one multichap this year and it was How This Grace Things Works which is a kyalin post s3 fic in which Kya takes longer than a couple weeks to recover from FALLING FROM A CLIFF with lots of family times, domesticity, frustrations of recovering and falling in love. 
Most Popular Multi-Chapter (by kudos) overall: It’s A Way to Ignite, a swanqueen au wherein Emma is a firefighter and Regina is an elementary school principal. It took me two years to finish and has some sweet comedic moments. 
Favourite story you’ve written so far: I couldn’t possibly choose honestly but if you’re looking for the most on brand thing I’ve ever written it’s this hackle longfic Let Me Hand You My Love. It’s got a marriage of convenience, bed sharing, kissing for “practice” sake, slow burn, mutual pining, etc. 
Fic you were nervous to post: let us posses one world, each hath one, and is one which is an e rated fic with a threesome for The Bletchley Circle. It was the first time I’d written a sexual situation where the theme didn’t include romance and that is a definitely out of my normal realm. I’m very proud of it though because it is about friendship and support and I think I did it a good bit of justice. 
How do you choose your titles?: Song lyrics or poems. 
Do you outline?: Yep. Always for multichap/longfics and for oneshots it depends. 
Complete works: 219 on AO3 and I have no idea how many are on tumblr. (There is one Star Trek wip on ao3 that I swear I will return to one day.)
In-Progress works: I’m currently working on a hackle oneshot and a cozy Christmas oneshot for tony/angela from who’s the boss. I have various other things I’m thinking about/adding a sentence to every now and then but those first two are the ones I’m really working on.
Coming soon/not yet started: Everything else? I’ve honestly given up predicting what ideas my brain will latch onto. 
Prompts?: I take them occasionally but not at the moment. I still have holiday prompts from last year ( @amusedrhyme I will finish that fireworks prompt for you I SWEAR) and a couple other things I want to get to but life is life so we’ll see. 
Upcoming work you’re most excited about: The two in progress ones I mentioned. 
Tagging: @toastweasel, @rikubean, @songbookff, @romanimp, and @dinovia-grant

Swanqueen promotes rape culture
It’s funny that every claim SQ makes against CS is out of context, blown out of proportion or just not true. However, each of their claims can be said about their crack ship.
First of all, perpetuating this lie about CaptainSwan = Domestic Violence is sickening. It devalues real abuse stories and makes light of real trauma. Also you know they’re full of crap when they never speak out about Rumbelle which is textbook abuse. Regina & Emma’s friendship, however, is extremely toxic and one sided.
Claim #1 - Insults & Forcing Issues
Tumblr media
2nd Picture: So? You’ve never insulted anyone when under highly stressful situations? I mean seriously. The man isn’t a saint but that isn’t abuse either. It happened ONCE under strenuous circumstances. How about look at the rest of their relationship? Hm?
3rd Picture: Nice of you not to blame Regina for that since her evil half was actually revealing Emma’s secret. But either way this isn’t abuse and it doesn’t fall under anything listed under the examples. Killian was genuinely worried about her and with good cause. Her hands were shaking and her powers were not working properly. There was nothing selfish about him wanting to know what was going on with her. This scene was all about Emma’s welfare. 4th Picture: Awesome line isn’t it? Him declaring his intentions, letting her know he wont abandon her like everyone else and letting her know he plays fair. Love it. Also isn’t represented in any of those points.
But lets put Regina’s “friendship” with Emma under these, hm?
Counter Claim #1 - Regina causes real emotional distress
SQ claimed Killian begging Emma to tell them what was going on was abuse but that simply isn’t true. He did not hurt Emma in anyway. However. Regina on the other hand...
---Forcing Emma to answer her ---
which is causing her emotional & physical distress!
Tumblr media
This is actual abuse. Regina was physically & emotionally hurting Emma so that Regina could “fix things” and be the savior like she so desperately wanted when she stole Emma’s agency. Funny, Killian was able to coax the truth out of Emma WITHOUT hurting her.
---Regina Insulting people Emma loves---
Killian should not have insulted or raised his voice to Henry. But how do you excuse Regina’s constant insults of Killian, the Charmings and even Emma’s real friends?
Tumblr media
There’s actually so many instances of Regina not only insulting Emma but insulting her parents or Killian. She does it under stress but she also does it for fun. And she truly means it each and every time.
Tumblr media
For more ways Regina verbally abuses Emma, read The Best Friend Award thread!
____________________________________________________________________
Claim #2: More Insults & Threatening physical violence against... a loved one?
Tumblr media
1st Picture: Context. First off, Killian was still a villain here and secondly she’d just broken the code he lives by. She didn’t trust that her powers were right about him & she abandoned him. They weren’t romantically involved at this point either. Also more Dark One Hook. Did anyone watch the Dark One arc? He was completely consumed with darkness & had Nimue whispering in his ear. He felt guilty for being weak & giving into the darkness & apologized & paid for that despite him not wanting the darkness to begin with!
2nd Picture: Really? LOL. I can come up with so many instances of Emma being upset and dragged down by Regina and looking that way. It’s amazing. These images will come in the counter claim.
3rd Picture: And? He was upset. You do realize that his past experiences with Dark Ones is a painful one? He’s scared to death he’s going to lose his Emma, his light, to this darkness. And she was the DO and she wasn’t being truthful with him. He also apologizes for this. He was too harsh and he regretted it. Relationships have their bumps - no relationship is perfect and people are not always perfect and people will hurt each other. Intentions and what comes afterwards matters. And NO ONE has ever been more supportive of Emma than Killian Jones.
4th Picture: And....? what? Emma doesn’t love Zelena, she is not friends with Zelena and Zelena is not related to her. Nice reach!
Counter Claim #2 - Regina threatens Emma & her family, physically & emotionally hurts her
Oh that’s right, who has hurt Emma more? That would be Regina. Regina orphaned Emma, tried to murder her, tried to turn her son against her and has been the most verbally abusive person. But please, continue to try and say a man cursed with darkness is worse than a woman that chooses to be a self-centered bitch.
---Actual physical harm? CHECK---
Tumblr media
Regina & Emma have come to physical blows. Regina even used magic to toss her down her driveway.
Tumblr media
Regina literally didn’t care that she was hurting Emma with the dagger. Her answer to hurting Emma was “whatever”.
This moment was also framed as something good Regina did since Emma thanks her for it... proof the show romanticizes Regina’s actions.
Tumblr media
Regina literally tortured Emma, murdered her parents in front of her then BLAMED IT ON HER VICTIM!
Emma ends up thanking Regina for her abuse & once again signaling that anything Regina does is good. Furthermore, she murders Wish Snowing and gains Wish Henry’s love all by declaring this a “mistake”. The woman is literally awarded for being a murderer.
---Threatening him/her or family? CHECK!---
Tumblr media
She was threatening Emma’s parents.
Oh yeah, that’s right. If Dark One Hook can be used as evidence (despite him literally being consumed by pure evil whereas Regina is just an ass) then this can be too. Why? Because the sEQ was still Regina. This is Regina. This is how Regina really feels.
I could also go all the way back to S1-2:
Tumblr media
Get rid of means kill by the way.
She manipulated Sydney into attempting to kill Emma.
When that didn’t work, she baked a poisonous apple tart for Emma to eat!
Then there’s that time she tried to destroy the entire town & everyone in it so she could have Henry to herself.
Tumblr media
Whether SQ likes it or not, Killian is Emma’s true love. And Emma truly does love him.
Tumblr media
REGINA ACTUALLY MURDERED SOMEONE EMMA CARED FOR! And never told her about it!
---Regina makes Emma miserable? CHECK---
Tumblr media
Literally in pain being in her presence! Emma never smiles at Regina the way she lights up when she’s with Killian. Why? Cause Regina is toxic.
Tumblr media
All of these are scenes with Regina.
---Regina insulting or Manipulating Emma? CHECK & Double CHECK!---
Tumblr media
Emotional blackmail to get Emma to do something that could cause irreparable damage... like make her lose control and give into darkness.
Tumblr media
Regina literally gaslit Emma over SAVING A WOMAN’S LIFE! Guilt tripped her so bad into doubting herself then running to Regina for forgiveness & friendship despite the fact that it was REGINA who murdered the woman in the first place!
Regina’s abuse in these episodes is glorified the moment the show had Emma begging to be friends with her abuser. Regina’s actions were thereby justified and Emma’s vilified - despite Emma being the hero & Regina being the villain.
____________________________________________________________________
Claim #3 - Assault or if you’re into the truth: he attempted a TLK
Tumblr media
I don’t hear any complaint about when Charming did the same thing with Snow? Imagine that? I wonder why? Or when Rumple made the author re-write his story and make Belle his wife again when she was with someone else? Can we play spot the differences here?
Killian attempted a true love’s kiss so that EMMA WOULD REMEMBER AGAIN. He had reason to believe it would work too. They’ve shared a kiss. She’s included him in her life. She even said "good” when said he would always think of her. He felt the connection between them. He did not attempt this for his own selfish desires but to hopefully break the spell on Emma so that she could return to her parents & save Storybrook.
I don’t have a counter claim to this for obvious reasons... Regina & Emma never made physical contact except to hit each other & that one awkward as hell hug....but here’s some bonus footage!
Tumblr media
Oh that’s right, Regina is the actual canon rapist here. Not Killian.
More about this below and how this in fact romanticizing male rape.
____________________________________________________________________
Claim #4 - More insults? Not sure. Sexual innuendo.
Tumblr media
Picture 1: What? Is this supposed to be Killian endangering Henry? Cause Regina & Robin also did that. Or forcing Henry to do something that might SAVE EMMA? Give me a break!
Picture 2: Yay more Dark Hook. Please. I can find way more from Regina & Regina wasn’t cursed.
Picture 3: Sexual innuendo isn’t assault & he’s still a villain here anyway. MOVE ALONG.
Picture 4: This is priceless. SHE IS LOOKING AT HER PARENTS AND THINKING ABOUT WHAT REGINA DID TO HER!
Counter Claim #4 - more violence and wanting to hurt Emma and those around her
Two can play this game.
---Sexual innuendo leading to violence? CHECK---
Tumblr media
Now I don’t believe Regina meant anything sexual by this but this scene is literally SQs favorite line which they turn into something sexual... reality? That apple is poisoned and Regina plans to murder Emma with it.
Please sit down and shut up now, SQ. Your argument is done.
“but the show didn’t frame it in a positive light - it said this was evil!”
Really? Cause if they did then Regina would have paid for crimes. Nope, she was absolved off all of this and more below.
---Wanting to hurt Emma? CHECK---
We’ve already covered some of this but here’s some more:
Tumblr media
You guys realize that when she says this she is admitting she’d gladly rip Emma from her parents again and force her to grow up alone on the streets as a child? That she wouldn’t even change the fact that Emma suffered a traumatizing pregnancy in jail for a crime she didn’t commit that ended up in her having to give that child up? Oh how romantic.
Furthermore, this thinking is framed in a positive way by the show because later on Snow THANKS Regina for saving them. And if you think about it, the only way Regina was able to save them is because she is a sociopath that doesn’t regret her crimes. Again, romanticizing Regina’s crimes.
Tumblr media
Regina was also the first to give up on Emma and called her a problem. Regina was ready to do away with her as an enemy.
Tumblr media
And a random picture of Emma trying to get Regina to be friends with her and looking miserable!
---Endangering someone Emma loves? CHECK!---
Tumblr media
Regina falsely accuses Emma of being jealous and ignores the danger their son is in.
____________________________________________________________________
Claim #5 Killian is abusive to females
Tumblr media
Actually, he’s just a villain. HE IS VIOLENT WITH EVERYONE! This is not an excuse it’s just calling a spade a spade.
Picture 1: Double standard really. Regina gets away with murdering women, children (including young girls) and raping a man without so much as repenting for the lives she destroyed (and she clearly doesn’t, she expresses regret for her dark past standing in the way of her happy ending meaning she doesn’t care about her victims). Killian on the other hand has expressed remorse, sacrificed his life & made it up to his victims.
Picture 2: Killian hasn’t abused a female because they were a female. He even says he went after Belle because that is where Rumple kept his heart. Was what he did wrong? Yes. But that in no way means he goes around abusing women for the sake of abusing women. He didn’t abuse Milah.
Picture 3: Killian did not hurt Regina. However, Regina did throw him off a cliff. He did not partake in her torture he simply didn’t help her. Both were villains... she’s an evil child abusing mass murdering rapist. So I ask you... so what?
Counter Claim #5 - Regina abused women. Where’s the outrage?
A picture is worth a thousand words
Tumblr media
Regina also abused men. But hey, villains... they’re evil. They do evil things.
____________________________________________________________________
The Regina Exemption Clause
“It’s OK for Regina to have committed these atrocities and still be with Emma because the Evil Queen is never celebrated or romanticized in any way.”
Regina? Not celebrated? What do you call this?
Tumblr media
I call it getting a trophy for doing absolutely nothing. She abused men, women and children. She murdered innocent people because she was angry at a 10 year old. She raped a man for 28 years. And she paid for none of it. Not a single apology. Not a single show of remorse for her victims - only for her own lost happy ending. Not a single regret as she would have done it all over again to get Henry despite destroying other innocent lives INCLUDING Emma’s.
Regina? Not romanticized? What do you call this?
Tumblr media
Regina’s crimes were romanticized ... she was a provocative woman who flirted while delighting in murdering and abusing innocent people. Especially men.  How is that not romanticizing?
How is what she did to Graham not romanticizing?
Tumblr media
She was shown in sexual situations with a man she was sexually abusing - as she forced him to be her sex slave against his will - and then she murdered him for rejecting her! Does she pay for this? No. It’s quietly buried.
Evil Regals have also been known to say that Graham should’ve been grateful to be abused by such a sexy woman like Regina.
How is Killian Jones trying to kill one person so that he can avenge his love’s death worse than Regina murdering & abusing thousands to exact her revenge on a child? It’s not. If Regina can be forgive for all of this & you can advocate for her being with the woman she verbally, physically & emotionally abuses for 6 seasons... then Killian Jones can be forgiven ten fold since we actually see him show remorse, regret and pay a price for his dark past. He actually faces his victims. Regina faced nothing.
Also, as said above, ERs take the “forbidden fruit” scene as something sexual... obviously Regina is romanticized? If her attempting to murder Emma can be seen as something hot?
____________________________________________________________________
In Conclusion
No relationship is perfect. No person is perfect. If you look for toxicity you will find it. What matters is the person’s intentions as well as their actions. Killian Jones has proven how much he admired and respects Emma. He was the only one to believe in her when she took on the darkness. There is also a clear change in his attitude and demeanor when he’s consumed by the darkness. Most importantly, he’s shown regret and remorse for the actions he committed during that time.
Everything SQ falsely accuses Kilian of being... Regina is actually just that. She’s physically, emotionally and verbally abusive. So who is better for Emma? Killian is a supportive husband while Regina was a nasty selfish “friend”.
All I can say to Evil Regals who perpetuate this tired argument:
You’re a bunch of disgusting hypocrites that use real life traumas like domestic abuse & rape as a battle ax to destroy a ship simply because you believe it is in the way of your crack ship! Newsflash: Neither character was gay and there was no way the hero of this story was going to be with the evil step-grammy who destroyed her life

Any SwanQueen fic recs?
I never got into SwanQueen and never watched the show. But I wanted to do something and also try this as an experiment: Was there anything I could do without having read a single SwanQueen fic?
The thing I came up with is: look for fics written by author’s whose works in other fandoms I enjoyed. 
This is the list. (if I ever want to try SwanQueen fics, I now also have a starting point). 
I guess these are rather author recs than fic recs, but I hope this is useful.
Every Dog Has Its Day by unicyclehippo
Someone has given a love potion to Emma. Only, well, it didn’t work quite the way they’d hoped. Turns out they got a few ingredients wrong and not only does Emma think she’s a dog but she seems to find one Regina Mills quite…fetching.
  trip away, make no stay, meet me all by break of day. by civilorange
the one with an inexplicable murder spree, town wide insomnia, battles with our worst selves and a healthy slathering of love dramatically realized.
 Miss United States by fictorium
She’s beauty and she’s grace… except, well… she’s also Emma Swan, FBI Agent.
Domestic terrorism threats have put the Miss United States Pageant at risk, and their best option is sending a female agent undercover to expose the would-be bomber and protect the glamorous contestants.
Along the way Emma forms alliances with the enigmatic Miss Maine (Regina Mills), the warm and sensible Miss New York (Tamara) and the ever-so-slightly-drippy Miss Rhode Island (Mary Margaret Blanchard).
With Killian Jones running the op, backed up by her ex Neal, Emma knows the success rests on her being able to pass herself off as a beauty queen.
 Fretting Over the Fate of Dinosaurs by harper_m

I am so obsessed with emma and regina’s cool mom x pta mom dynamic. it is the best thing Ever in my opinion.
like regina’s that very mommy mom who bakes a lot and emma is her jock wife who makes stupidly endearing jokes like “what am I? chopped liver?!” when the school kids excitedly swarm their pastry provider.
every time I think about domestic swanqueen just being moms in storybrooke it just gives me the funniest mental images with an instant Happy Chemical boost

OUAT Ficlet:  Family Reunion
Family Reunion
What should have happened during 03x18
SwanQueen-ish
Emma lingered, worried.  Regina had a bad habit of bottling her feelings up and never talking about them.  Which was sort of the pot calling the kettle black since Emma did the same thing.  It takes one to know one and all that crap.
“Hey”  Emma lingered at the door.  She even reached out and touched Regina’s elbow.  “Are you sure you’re okay?  That couldn’t have been easy.”
Regina had just fought off and banished her mother’s ghost.  The mother who had died in her arms not too long ago.  The mother she had the world’s most complicated relationship with.  Easy?  If she were anyone else, Regina would be curled up in the fetal position sobbing.
“I’m fine, Emma.”  Regina smiled at her.  “I’m just a little tired.  All I need is one strong glass of cider and my bed.”
Regina’s cider was still the best cider she’d ever tasted. Emma had been cursed with an unquenchable thirst for it in New York.  She had tried every cider she could find, micro-brews and seasonal specialties, imports and domestics, and none of them had compared to Regina’s.  The taste she’d had that first night in Regina’s study had ruined her for all other ciders.  It had ruined her for a lot of things. Which reminded her.
“Hey, did you, uh, use magic to change your study?  Because I swear I’ve never seen that door there before.”  
She had dreams about that room, about that night.  Dreams that ended with her staying over instead of landing in jail.  Dreams about licking cider off of Regina’s skin and wrapping her fingers in her dark hair.  Dreams about having Regina scream her name.  Dreams she shouldn’t have about her son’s other mother.
“No.” Regina tilted her head, “It’s always been like that, Dear.”
Emma blinked.  “I guess.”  She scrubbed her hands over her face, one foot still on the threshold of Regina’s manor.  “Maybe I’m going crazy.”
Regina smiled and leaned a little closer.  “You need rest.  We all do.  Go.  Let your pirate pamper you like the princess you were born to be.”
Emma blinked again.  When had Regina gotten so close?  She licked her lips nervously and tried to focus on what Regina was saying.  
Emma reached out and grabbed Regina’s hand.  One hand on her elbow, one on her hand, they were practically hugging.
“Wow!”  Emma looked down at Regina’s hand.  “You are freezing.  Are you sure you’re okay?”  She didn’t want to leave her alone if she was in shock.  Was magical shock a thing?  Or maybe it was just normal shock.  It wasn’t every day you fought a ghost, even in Storybrooke.
She moved down Regina’s other arm, elbow to hand, her fingers dragged down her silk blouse.  Her other hand was just as cold.  She had to be in shock.  Emma looked into her eyes.  They didn’t seem glassy or unfocused.  They were their regular swirl of whiskey and dark chocolate.  Regina had the most expressive eyes that Emma had ever seen.  Right now, though, they were flat, distant and cold.  Regina was not okay.
“Forget Hook.  You are my best friend and I am worried about you.  Besides with your bitch of a witch sister running around I don’t think you should be alone.”
Regina smiled, and Emma would swear she could feel her burgundy tinted lips on her cheek.  “I’m fine, Em-ma.  I promise.”  Her fingers squeezed Emma’s.  “I will see you and Henry tomorrow.”  Regina’s lips were brushing against her with every syllable.  She was oh-so-subtly giving her butterfly kisses, one for each quiet word.
Emma’s brain momentarily flat-lined.  She was overwhelmed.  Regina.  Everything was Regina.  
“I-uh-okay.”  She let go, or did Regina let go, and stepped (stumbled) back.  “Me and the uh-Kid will see you in the morning.”
Emma shook her head to clear away the Regina-induced-high.  She really was a useless bisexual mess.
She walked back towards the bug and hoped that the chill in the air helped calm down her screaming hormones and messed up thoughts.  Because she was with Hoo-Killian and not Regina.  Because she loved him and not her.  Yes.  That was it.  
Still, Emma wondered while she cranked the Bug, she had to wonder when Regina had switched perfumes.  She didn’t like this new one.  Emma had always hated the scent of roses.
***
She watched The Savior leave and tried not to smirk.  That had been almost too easy.  Emma Swan was loyal, powerful, but not particularly bright.  None of the so-called heroes were.  If they weren’t all as dense as stone, they would have known.  They would have seen.  It would terrify them.
She closed the door with a soft click and walked away.  The click of her heels on hardwood was the only sound in the house.  She paused at the mirror and smiled.  Her daughter’s lips twitched up, accentuating the scar.  Her daughter’s eyes crinkled just a bit.  Her daughter’s hand moved to push aside her daughter’s dark hair.  Cora Mills was back, and this time there would be no stopping her.  She had overcome death itself this time, a feat that should be magically impossible.
“Zelena.”  The name felt sounded odd, not particularly powerful, and it was not the name she had chosen.  Still, she had always wanted to meet her first-born daughter.  According to Snow and Regina’s memories, she was powerful and determined.  She knew how to take what she wanted.  She knew how to make others kneel before her.  Her firstborn understood power.
“Maybe your elder sister can teach you the lesson I never could.”  She spoke to the mirror.  “Love is weakness, Regina.  That is why I was able to defeat you.  Your love, for that boy and his mother, was your undoing.”
Deep inside, locked up and chained down in her own mind, Regina screamed.
