I can’t believe what I just found out, I pretty much ran home to write this post. Or well… kicked the train so it would move faster. When Neal is back in his father’s Castle during the 3rd season, he finds the key chain he stole for Emma.
Neal: “A necklace, it was Emma’s. It was supposed to represent our life together. I don’t know how it survived the trip.” Belle: “Because, it was born out of true love.”
True Love, right? This key chain is associated with True Love. So I took a closer look at it and thought to myself they could have gone for a more elegant design when suddenly instead of a swan, I noticed two distinct shapes. The swan’s neck looks like a lion’s tail and the body looks like a scorpion’s claw. So I decided to check the Zodiac signs for our characters. Emma’s on the cusp between Libra and Scorpio, so Scorpio seemed right. Then the only indicator we have for Henry’s birthday is a password Regina once used, which would indeed make him a Leo. So I thought, nice, Neal did give Emma her True Love, Henry, nice symbol… until I realized the waterline may also be a symbol. I checked Neal and he’s an Aries, not Aquarius, the water bearer, it’s not even a water sign. And then I remembered this thing of beauty.
The waterline! Regina’s an Aquarius! I may or may not have made very, very special noises that I hope I will never ever make again when making this particular discovery. Let’s just summarize, the True Love key chain binds the Leo, the Scorpio and the Aquarius together.
Why go through the trouble of making such a genius design if it’s not going to be important? If Swan Mills family finding True Love with each other isn’t what this show is about? Why does the list of hints pointing at this beautiful family keep growing?
Because Love wins, goddammit, that’s why.

If you’ve been shipping WLW couples for as long as I have, you already know the trauma of bait, subtext, or dead lesbians.
Enter stage right: vertical dramas.
They're way cheaper to shoot, and some people are realizing that our obsessive asses are worth investing in. It's only just started and there's only a few lesbian & bisexual sapphic vertical dramas out there, but I figured let's start talking about them, so they'll make more. (And yes, they're not perfect, but they seem to be getting better.)

This sounds like someone threw all the fanfic tropes into a mixing bowl.
Femslash Elders, I have questions!
What was it like, especially around the time when things moved from offline to online? I've spent a lot of time thinking about the social function of fandom, especially for lesbians/wlw. So many couples and babies born from fandom couples... So many people realizing their sexuality and finding community because of tv shows and resonating with the same female characters or (subtextual/potential) couples... but I just wonder what it was like in the nineties and before. How did y'all connect? Was it more hush-hush? Where are the couples with fandom origin stories etcetc?
People who lived in Los Angeles and Vancouver, what was it like to be close to where it was shot? Were there friend groups locally that focused on fandom? Were there set spoilers? How did you know where they were shooting without social media etc? What has changed, and also what's the same? Did you get to meet creatives? Conventions?
Not that I'm not kind of a fandom elder, but I joined later in life, guess I'm just wondering what I missed out on... I want the lore.

Seeing the Bridgerton backlash really drives it home that it was never about canon or wlw fans being delusional.
Swen is still alive because we're still reblogging posts from each other.

The delivery of this line is so interesting to me, the way Regina pauses in the middle of the sentence, and the camera cuts away from her:
She doesn't say "when it was just you, me, Robin Hood and Roland", which is how that sentence should flow, if she were saying it normally.
Instead, she said "when it was just you and me [PAUSE] Robin Hood and Roland."
"when it was just you and me" is a complete clause on its own. The pause makes it sound like the end of the sentence, and the camera cutting away adds to that.
If she intended to list off four people, there shouldn't have been an "and" between "you" and "me"
I very much comes across like she added "Robin Hood and Roland" as an afterthought.
It feels very much like it was shoe-horned into the sentence, the way that OQ was shoe-horned into the show. It also takes away from the emotional impact of the sentence, the way that OQ takes away from Regina's character.
Like, Regina feeling happiest when it was just her and Henry makes perfect sense, and is totally in character for her. Implying that she was happier with Robin Hood and Roland in her life than she was when it was just her and Henry contradicts pretty much everything they ever showed us on screen.
When was she so happy with Henry AND Robin Hood and Roland?? Because we didn't see that on screen. We saw her essentially having a short-lived fling with Robin until Marian came back, and then we saw her having a secret affair, knowing that it was doomed to fail... that's the level happiness she doesn't know if she'll ever have again?
It's also interesting that it's "you and me" "Robin Hood and Roland"... two separate groups. Regina is Henry's mom, and she was also dating Robin Hood, but the four of them did not form a family unit.
Like I know I'm reading too much into this, but any time I see this scene, I hear the first part and I'm like "aww" then I get blindsided by "Robin Hood and Roland" being tacked on the end, every single time.
I bet they added that part after .
Her lips work, camera on Henry, still a bit of pause then that part.
For me they added it after, like oopsie we forget someone.
It almost sounds like she's referring to herself and Henry as "Robin Hood & Roland", like it's their secret nicknames.
one thing i’ve learned about myself recently is that i literally don’t recognize romantic interactions. like i’ll be watching a show and someone will go “ohh they’re so flirting rn” but all i see is a friendly little discussion. i’ve gotten in arguments with people bc they go “they’re emotionally cheating on their partner!!” and in my mind they’re just two friends having an emotional chat so what i take this to mean is that when i DO in fact see romantic chemistry on screen, it is REALLY there. like thrown in your face kind of there. which is how i know swan queen was in fact canon. in this essay, i will—

kittybeth height difference is something that can actually be so personal
Moment of appreciation because Once Upon a Time has like 4 lesbian couples and not a single gay dude in sight. It’s very refreshing in today’s climate of overdoing gay men and ignoring queer women entirely
(I know swan Queen isn’t canon but whatever it’s real)
(SQ was so real they even included their exes... if you wanna add to the tally.)

Rhea Seehorn talking about playing Carol Sturka, a lesbian, and how she approached it 🫶
If you could add one luxury room from a mansion to your own home, which would you choose?
the indoor heated pool
the greenhouse
the entire room devoted to a single cat / dog
the fully-supplied art studio
the two-story library with rolling ladder
the room-size aquarium
home theater
the formal ballroom
the oversize garage
the game room
I heard of a place with [tag] once, gimme gimme
all of these would make me a worse person
Victorian mansion butler's pantry pls
Butler's pantry is an excellent choice and I will throw in a vote for an undercroft.
In my head, it's getting used as basically a huge conversation pit, there are nests of pillows around the pillars, the fire is lit, there are little occasional tables for drinks and chests of art and crafts supplies, playing cards, books etc for the kinds of things you can just do while sitting in a social pile.
...definitely indoor heated pool.
