#pro hook

HEY. So I caved and made a OUAT/Fandom but MOSTLY CS blog.

I will be doing whatever i’ve been doing here, there instead. But ill also be posting a lot more fan fics (hopefully helping me get over my fear of sharing my writing) as well as the fan videos i make, and some of my original music inspired by the show, the ship, and some of the other fandoms im falling prey to.

Though ill be blogging the shit out of CS posts obv., heres my thoughts on tonights episode

I really liked the parallels and the background. It was important to the story and to Emma’s overall character. While I really wanted more angst and resistance from emma about leaving hook, i know that what they had her do was important. Like how many times can you NOT let him go before you seem selfish. Before you mark yourself with selfishness gone too far. He asked her again, and she knew she had to let him go this time. She didn't want to. We saw that in every touch when she left along with the pause and contemplation before going back home. So while I really wish there was more angst, more “i dont want to go” dialogue and action, she did what her character needed to do. For Hook. 

I did really wish there was more dishing on their past and more talk about their mistakes made for and by one another during the beginning of season 5, but I think they didn't really need to talk about it sense they did in fact both conquer the things that originally lead to those mistakes. We saw Killian forgive himself. We saw him do the right thing again. We saw him deal with his past with his brother and his guilt over being the dark one and being what he called  being “weak”. We saw Emma help everyone get back home. We saw her be selfless and let Hook go. Sure they didnt talk about it, but they did deal with it.

Also can i just say TRUE LOVE BITCHES

I also want to say damn, did Rumple actually do something right. Whats happening there? i DONT even know what to think about him anymore. 

Things i am annoyed at. I wish there was more CS focus. They gave us promos dedicated towards this quest but i felt it took a whole 2 seconds to complete it. I wanted it to be longer. We had so many episodes that have pulled the focus away from these two, despite the fact that that was the whole point of going to the Underworld, I really wish we had more time with them in this episode.

I didnt like the ending. No cliff hanger. Nothing to say, “shit this is what you have to look forward to on the next episode”. I needed a cliffhanger for this episode. The promo wasn't enough.  Like I needed something with hook. what happened after she left? i know we will have that answered later, but we needed some kind of inkling of his thoughts, feelings, and overall demeanor after she left and disappeared from his sight. After an episode like that. Especially when the promo is hook-less.

im really conflicted on the episode. It overall had good back story. It had good development. it had great one liners. It had great acting. Especially from Colin, like fuck me up, that was brilliant. But it needed to end differently. It needed to focus more on CS for all the CS promotion that was happening, and i need to not feel like this.

like a week. a whole week. what the fuck is this life guys

for all you CS shippers who have time to kill

Someone actually tweeted this. It outrages me since I am living with a disability. If you don’t like Hook or Captain Swan, fine, but maybe think about your simple, off the cuff jab. Did you really intend to insult disabilities? Is your “ship” so important that you need to say something someone else may take to heart?

Lots of people unfortunately still stigmatize those of us who are “less than whole.” I think it’s fantastic that a character on tv is holding another’s replacement limb as lovingly as she holds his other hand.

That’s just me though, putting actual, real people over “ships.”
