Ur theory on roses =death ,, hook got one even tho hes in the finale or something do u think he could die ?

Anyone could die. Do I think that he will die? Well, he has to go somewhere because I will never believe that he is Emma's TL. Never. Maybe he dies finally being a man and saving people. Whether that will be this finale or next season, I don't know.

Wat u think of faking it ?

I personally enjoyed it. It’s a relief to watch something that isn’t so deep and convoluted. No demons, no murders, no curses, etc. It’s high school. It’s a lot of exaggeration, but I took that as a bit of parody. It has moments where they actually do stop and discuss things. The girls discuss how offensive and wrong it is to pretend to be gay just to gain popularity. One of the girls is just totally self absorbed and only thinks about herself and her popularity, but the other one isn’t. The other one just wants to support her friend, make her friend happy, and at the end of the episode it’s her who actually realizes that she might be gay after all. So, her story is totally realistic.  Lesbians are expected to be totally stereotypical and even the out gay guy thinks that way. It’s like a discussion of ‘hey, this is really how people see lesbians, but it’s not like that at all.’ 

Personally, I think a hell of a lot of people freaked out over it being an offensive misrepresentation of LGBT youth. I saw all sorts of passionate arguments about why people should boycott the show. Yet NONE of those people doing the arguing had even bothered to watch the pre-release episode. It’s typical of how things are done these days…we see something on the internet or social media and we automatically believe it and get all agitated and offended by it and we want to fight against it, but WE ARE WRONG. All it takes is a moment to do some research first, to read or watch things first, and then (and only then) we should form our own opinion about things. 

Go and look in the Faking It tags now. People’s comments were almost 98% in favor of the show. There were still some people who were like ‘I don’t know what to do…I think I should be offended but I’m not. Someone tell me what to think!’ If people can’t even decide what to think about the show after watching it, then how are they justified in hating the show based off of someone else’s opinion?? 

Anyway, as I said in a previous post…I enjoyed the episode and I will continue to watch it. I’m not a teen in high school, so I have a few more important life issues than being popular and getting invited to parties, but I’m all for watching a young woman work through her sexuality. I find it interesting and I’m sure as hell not gonna hate on a show that’s just trying to do something that gives representation to an underrepresented group. Had I watched something like this when I was in high school, maybe I would have questioned my own sexuality sooner and saved myself some stress!

Do u think theres a parallel between Jonathan and robin and idk if someone already post it but I was thinking Jonathan even tho he romance cora hes pretended to be something hes not do u think robin is the same pretending something hes not ?

Well I did make that gifset with the obvious parallel between them.  ;)

I'm just not sure if it means that RH is pretending to be someone he's not or if he's being himself, but just isn't the right one for Regina. The parallel is there though. I've had comments on the gifset that it means nothing, but when Jane Espenson writes a parallel, then it's a freaking parallel, and it's there for a reason.

Do you thin Jonathan is robin dad? And why is people saying regina and robin r getting marry?

Hmm, I honestly don't know what to think about Jonathan yet. I'm still thinking things over in my head...what I DO know is that all isn't what it seems with him. He isn't 'just' a gardener...or why else would Zelena be so powerful? Yesterday I gave some thoughts as to why Zelena might be more powerful than Regina, but maybe it does just have to do with who her parents are. IDK.

People who ship OQ are being hopeful that it's Regina and Robin who will marry. Just as people who ship CS are saying there will be a TLK and wedding for CS. It's all just speculation, no one knows for sure who will get married. Though I do have to say, there have been spoilers that we'll see Friar Tuck in at least one upcoming episode (he was a monk who traveled with Robin Hood in the stories), so maybe he will officiate the wedding? I have no idea. I hate trying to dissect spoilers because there are too many unknowns.
