Oh phew thanks. Can't wait to properly met you. I'm starting to panic on finishing it in time, but I'll give it my all. Love, RSS. Ps. Hope you have a great day.

Don’t stress about anything, Santa. I’m very laidback about it all so just do what you can and know I’ll love it no matter what. And I’m on the western side of the US, so you don’t even have to post it very early Saturday if you still need to work on it. I’ve had a pretty good day and I hope you have too. Oh and I can’t wait to meet you as well!

I agree. I can't wait for hiatus to be over, even though it's barely begun. So about your gift, I'd like to apologize for how short it might be. I had to do a lot of editing so it would make sense and it was never going to be too long anyways. Which is weird, because normally I write more than I try to. It will most likely be two thousand words. And I switched Zelena's role up a bit. I hope you like it.

Me too! I always hate these midseason hiatuses - although it’s better than season two, where they had so many little breaks throughout the entire season. 

No worries, Santa! My own story is gonna be pretty short (unless I write a ton tomorrow by some miracle) and I’m just excited to see whatever it is you come up with. Knowing that you’ve worked on it for me is enough to make me ecstatic. I’ll love it. :)

I was looking forward to the finale and now that I've watched it I am in extreme fangirling pain. But I liked it. What did you think? A lot of fans had controversial opinions on it, I heard. Anyways, love and hugs after that episode. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Love, Santa.

Hey there, Santa! Oh my goodness, I know how you feel. I had a long day and so when I got home to watch it, I was very excited and hoping to unwind. And then I actually saw it and now everything hurts. Putting it under the readmore to prevent spoilers.

[kaythelostgirl-blog]

Awesome! Glad to hear it! I'm struggling to work on your gift right now, but I'm going to make sure you get some kind completed present. So how's your day? I've had a good day, I hope you have too. Love, Santa.

Don’t worry about that, Santa. I’m struggling with mine too, although I have an idea (at last) so it’s just executing it well. My day’s been pretty good, atlhough it was a little frazzling this morning (I had a choir thing and we had car issues). But the rest of the day has been good. I’m glad you had a good day. Are you looking forward to the midseason finale tomorrow?

Oh good, I agree with your thoughts. I personally read all of the spoilers, but I think it's a wise move on your part not to. I only very vaguely know things about Cruella, so I'm gonna wait and see. Anyways, I got loads of work done on your present. How do you feel about Zelena as a sort of stalkery villain? I haven't written her before, but maybe in the style of "The Color Green" by straggle? I think you said you liked Strag. I haven't gotten there yet so if you have any objections... -RSS <3

And oh yeah, PS: Glad you like woobie!Rum. This one is a successful businessman with a woobie core. You reckon?

I do occasionally read slightly spoilery things - like today, I read an article about the three new villains because I was curious and that wasn’t bad. It didn’t really explain much about Cruella either, but I’m looking forward to finding out about her in the show.

Ooooh I love that idea! Zelena’s weird side made her an interesting villain and I’d be happy to see her in your fic! That was actually one of my favorite things she’s written, I think. No objections on my part. And Rum sounds like he will be perfect. I can’t wait to see your story!

I hope you’re doing well!

I got around to watching it yesterday, so I can further explain my thoughts and understand yours. I think it definitely wasn't as bad as a lot of people made it out to be, but it wasn't very good either. The writing and characterization were my main problems with it, so much so that someone is theorizing that Rumple is possessed. (I actually hope that's true btw, cos it was a great theory.) And ah, you reached the main writing thing. What was that ending, yeah? Realistically, people (Cont.)

People should have died in this spell, but they downplayed the whole thing so much. Too much really. And the Snow Queen’s end. I think the problem with that was pacing. It was very sudden. Otherwise it could have been great. Frozen Swan is awesome, btw, so I will miss that. About the next arc though. I’m stupidly optimistic. The finale is called Heroes and Villains and I’ve read some great theories. We’re hoping that the Villains they called in are actually gonna help us, not be the Big Bads.(C)

Sorry this is so long, Santa has a lot of thoughts. My main point is I’m weirdly optimistic and I’m not gonna judge until I watch it. Anyhow, hope you have a good day. I’m working on your present and I’m really sorry if it sucks. :( And do you like your Rumples woobie? Love, Santa-san.

Hey Santa! Glad you got a chance to watch it at last. I agree with you. Overall, I’ve enjoyed this season a lot more than last season but it’s still not great. I miss season 1 OUAT. Oooh, I don’t know if I’ve heard that theory for Rumple but it does make a lot of sense! Especially since his character development has basically gone down the drain. I’d love to see that happen.

YES. The whole spell was built up so much for it basically to fizzle out without any real consequences. They could have had a really good storyline with that, if they had Emma and Elsa looking for Regina and coming across all the other inhabitants under the influence of the curse. That would have been awesome. And yeah, maybe it is the pacing that bothers me with the Snow Queen’s storyline. Something about it just seemed off. Ah, the potential of Frozen Swan, now gone down the drain. I’m really disappointed about that.

For the most part, I’m pretty excited about the next episode too. Aside from my lingering questions on bringing Cruella in. I haven’t seen any theories for the new characters yet but I’ve been trying to avoid anything even vaguely spoilery as I have accidentally spoiled things for myself a couple of times in the recent past and that’s frustrating to me personally. I do hope they do something new and exciting with these characters though.

No need to apologize! I like hearing your thoughts. My day has been pretty good so far. I hope yours is too! And seriously, don’t worry about your present! I promise I’ll love it no matter what you come up with. AND YES WOOBIE RUMPLE. I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

It's fine, you can answer whenever. I hope you're having a good day, btw. What did you think of Shattered Sight? I hold my hands up, I didn't watch it. Everyone on my dash said they didn't like it and I didn't like the beginning. But what did you personally think? Feel free to tear the episode apart or explain what you actually liked about, I can't judge. Love, Santa.

Hey, Santa! I usually try to answer pretty quickly after I get them, or else I forget about the ask lol. It’s a failing of mine. My day has been pretty good except for cramps this morning. But I slept and they subsided.

And I’m gonna put the rest of my reply under a readmore because there are spoilers and I don’t want to ruin the episode for anyone.

Honestly, I was pretty happy with the episode. Angry!Snow was in it, and I love Snow best when she’s angry. Regina had some funny moments and Hook wasn’t in it enough to make me mad at him. I was unhappy at the lack of Belle and the fallout of the curse didn’t make much sense to me - everyone just started laughing, like ‘oh hahahahaha we almost killed each other, isn’t this great?’ and that made sense for some characters, like the dwarves, but not so much in the Snow/Charming/Regina bit.

I have mixed feelings about how the Snow Queen’s storyline ended because on the one hand, I loved it; it was poetic and beautiful and her choice. The dialogue was what really threw me. It just didn’t come across as poetically as the moment needed, in my opinion. Also I’m disappointed that she’s gone because she’s one of my favorite characters. And I guess this is the end of the Frozen storyline too and I’m gonna miss those characters too (I totally jumped on the Emma/Elsa ship and want to see more of them, whether as magical BFFs or something more).

And also I’m not sure how I feel about the new villains they’re bringing in. Maleficent is cool (if it’s the same actress as before, I couldn’t tell if it was or not though) and so is Ursula but … Cruella deVille? That’s a little weird. Also I’m not sure how to spell her name. But it looked like Belle will be featured more prominently next week, so that’s nice. Since she was apparently sleeping all this episode??

Wow, that got long. I have a lot of thoughts apparently.

[kaythelostgirl-blog]

I'm sure you'll make a good decision about what you want to do. And in the meantime, hopefully you can get some sleep and stuffs. :P :) I really liked Rum in the episode, too, although I was honestly cheering him on in the beginning to take Belle and Henry and leave. Fortunately the quality got good enough that I cared about the rest of the cast too. Expect Hook. :/ That ending was excellent. :) And I was talking about Sword Art Online. It's an amazing anime. My ship was awesome and good plot!:)

To answer your most recent ask, Santa, no tumblr didn’t eat it. And honestly, I haven’t been that busy. I just looked at your ask before I left the house when you first sent it, and then forgot I needed to answer it. 

Now to answer this one: Thanks! I hope so too lol. This break has definitely been good on the sleeping end of things. Oooh yeah, I think I was a bit too, although I can’t see either of them really being okay with that. I was really happy with everyone else too, except Hook. Mostly I try to pretend he’s a completely new character because if I don’t do that, then I just spend all the time he’s on my screen grumbling. Ahh okay. I don’t really watch anime but I’m glad your ship is doing well and the plot is good! That’s always nice.

Sorry again this is so late.
