Hey, so, this is a random request to those Once Upon A Time fans who followed Screwballninja back in ye olden days (before she deactivated her account) - she had a post about who she would cast from Old/Classic Hollywood as characters on the show. I don’t think I reblogged it, so if anyone else did, I would love and appreciate your sharing it so it’s not lost to the Tumblr Void. Thank you!

I’ve only been informed of this now
And if it’s happened a long time ago, apologies
I haven’t been paying as close attention to my dashboard in the past year
Screwball ninja’s account has been deactivated
And I hope that she is ok.
Best Golden Lace Nominations for TEAS
GoldenLace, I thought, was an interesting aspect added to the Rumbelle story on ONCE and wished it had progressed more. However, we have wonderful fanfic to remedy that. Here are some recommendations for GoldenLace for the TEAs
Damaged Goods by Screwball Ninja. This series starts from ‘Lacey’ and goes to end of 'Second Star to the Right’. I love the dialogue between Lacey and Gold. Very witty, very clever. In her Lacey you can see streaks of Belle in her especially her insight into Gold’s thought processes. Fave paragraph:“I’m not. You can’t frighten me. You think I’m dumb, but I see right through you.” She glares at him. “We could have been something, if you weren’t too scared to— to try. Well, good luck with your things, Mr. Gold— you coward.”Gold stares at her and whispers in horror: “Seven hells.” He falls to his knees in front of her. “I’m sorry,” he says desperately. “I’m sorry, Lacey. I’m so sorry. Stay. Please, just … stay this time.” Love how Gold doesn’t want to repeat his mistake from Skin Deep. Beautiful
Silk Scarves by Aerilon452. Lacey and Gold indulge in each other. This is very NC-17 and says alot about how much Lacey likes being in control. It’s interesting to see Gold having to give up some control to win over Lacey.
The Blue Star by FieryPen37. The Blue Star is a brothel, Lacey a prostitute and Gold her favorite customer. This story has a great twist on what if Belle was not in the asylum during Season 1 theme. Blue Fairy is shady, Gold is torn between what is proper and his desires and Lacey shows all the qualities of Belle times ten. I just love the premise.And the smut is hot and the author does an good job of having Gold pre-Emma arrival having sex w/Lacey and post arrival sex with Lacey, the differences are subtle but spot on.
Chase the Sun by Chauchi. From 'Tiny’ to Season 3, this story covers Rumbelle with a huge chunk devoted to Lacey and Gold. Her take on 'And Straight on Til Morning’ is how I would have loved the episode to shake out. The author does an incredible job of writing about Gold’s thoughts throughout all of this and shows Lacey to be both party girl with Belle seeping through. Fave part:She made to reach out for the glass then changed her mind,curling her fingers into a fist at her side."I’m not a hero.” And his heart shattered into a thousand pieces.You are a hero. You just don’t remember.

The funny thing is you don’t NEED to call Rumple a misogynist to use him as a tool to smash the patriarchy or fight the man or whatever the cool kids are calling it nowadays: Rumple’s very violence is evidence of the poison patriarchy can bring. For Rumple, violence = masculinity = power, probably because he’s scarred from being called a coward for not fighting in the Ogre War...is it any wonder he’s spent the time since he got his Dark One powers beating up men and killing women for revenge? Every time his cane makes contact with somebody, Rumple is re-establishing his masculinity as dictated by society– in fact, he’s compulsively re-living the event that made him a “coward” by recreating the sledgehammer blow that made him a cripple...Rumple’s violent because he needs control, because he’s afraid– and it’s violent men and society’s EXPECTATIONS of male violence that cause his fear. Rumple was the victim of male violence through bullying (Hodor, Hook, the entire town) and perpetuates the cycle by being violent to others.

This is taken from Screwballninja’s post about how to redeem Rumple: but this pretty much explains why I feel like Rumple’s character was completely assassinated.
In S1 most people felt sorry for Rumple because despite a history of mendacity, a trail of corpses, and a distressing tendency towards escargot-related conflict resolution, Rumple had two great redeeming virtues:
Filial love– His desire to find and reconcile with Baelfire and his kindness towards Emma and Henry, even before he knew they were family
Romantic love– His twu wuv for Belle
By the end of the Frozen arc, both of these traits have been seriously undermined … but that just means the writers can redeem Rumple by adding those traits back in the future.
You better hope so, buster!
Read on for more, more, more!
1. Why Grandpa, What Gold Teeth You Have
What made Rumple so sympathetic in S1 and half of S2 was his deep love for his son Baelfire and his life-long regret for abandoning him.
*Rumple fans heavy sobbing in the background*
In S1/S2 it looked like Rumple cared about Emma and Henry, too– in most cases even before he knew they were family:
A) Rumple repeatedly said that he liked and respected Emma, even when he was manipulating her.
B) Rumple gave Emma the walkie-talkies to communicate with Henry because “your time together is precious”– and he did this for free!
C) Rumple healed Henry’s dreamworld-induced burns and gave him a magical object to help him navigate the disco inferno … for free, because “this is for Henry.”
D) Rumple taught Emma the protection spell against Cora using light magic, instead of encouraging darkness like he did with Regina.
The implication, too, was that Rumple had a soft spot for kids in general, extrapolating from the OFF-SCREEN scene where Rumple ended the Ogre Wars and sent all the kids home.
Then came Neverland, where Rumple’s dramatic arc was whether Rumplestiltskin, Attempted Child Murderer would become Rumplestiltskin, ACTUAL Child Murderer, and I threw a hissy fit because that’s too dark for hopelessly square little ole me.
