I would love to see Emma with a female love interest but... why Regina? By pretty much every standard she is an awful, petty and spiteful human being who is responsible for hundreds of of innocent deaths. ..One of the reasons by Outlaw Queen makes absolute no sense to me is that she executed his wife before Emma changed the past and still had as far as Robin knew and that sort of thing was so common for her she didn't even remember it. Emma and her have never had a singe non hostile interaction.
Dear Eugene,
I will defend Regina faster than I will defend myself. I don’t think you want to see that side of me. Trust me, it’s not pretty.
I will say this, though, in case you weren’t aware, there’s this really incredible thing that has existed ever since fictional stories were created called *drum roll*… A REDEMPTION ARC! Wow! Characters can have second chances! Characters can redeem themselves for shitty things they have done in the past! Wow! Such innovation!
I know, it seems almost too good to be true.
Eugene, we do agree on one very important thing. Outlaw Queen makes absolutely no sense.
However, I must ask you this, are you sure we’re watching the same show? Just to be clear, we are talking about Once Upon a Time, right?
“Emma
and
her
have never
had
a single
non
hostile
interaction”
NOT EVEN ONE, RIGHT, EUGENE?
They have never saved each other or anything. It’s not like Regina gave up her happy ending for Emma. Not at all. It’s not like that’s an actual canon thing that has happened.
Have a great day, Eugene.
It’s not like Emma knows Regina
Or believes in her
It’s not like they work as a team
Or make each other stronger
It’s not like Emma tells her to be careful
(Or like Regina looks as if it matters when she does)
It’s not like they protect each other
Or worry about each other
Or smile at each other
Or trust each other with the life of their son
Why Regina? They know and understand each other. They trust each other and work well together. They have great chemistry (and sexual tension). There is a beautiful poetry to their story, both of Regina coming to love someone she wronged and of the savior saving the lost soul who needed it most. Their canon relationship has come incredibly far. And above all (at least for me), they make a family.
