Hey so I've been following you for quite a while now, and I ship both SQ and OQ. Now I know you don't like OQ at all, and view it more or less with the same regard as C$ and while I understand for C$ I'd like to know why you call Robin a serial harasser, if you don't mind answering the question :3 sorry if this message comes off as rude I am just really trying to understand :)
Your question is not rude, if someone was rude it’s me for not properly tagging that reblog. I’m trying to do better in that regard. First let me clarify that I don’t view OQ the same way as C$, it’s not even close. C$ is everything I despise, in everything Emma and Hook are and how they behave. (I still believe that Emma can and will come back to us as the kickass woman she was before, but right now, canon Emma is horrible sometimes).
My problem with OQ is how Robin acts, I know it can be seen as romantic, the media always put it that way, but I honestly can’t see it like that. I was a huge OQ supporter back when the relationship was new, but I hadn’t seen every episode. After I saw he vault scene, the whole Marian thing, him moving on so quickly after leaving Storybrooke, I just couldn’t do it any more.
Concent is a huge matter to me, and I never felt Regina gave that concent. Not to start the relationship, in the vault or when immediately after finding out the truth about Marian/Zelena he asked to resume his relationship with Regina. Now, I don’t think he’s a bad person like Hook, one of the main reasons why I don’t actually hate Robin, although sometimes it may seem like I do, for the things I reblog when my emotions get the better of me.
Most of the problems come from a rushed storyline, but putting that aside, he’s not the best person either. I think he truly loved Regina, but his behavior was very much like that of a harasser, never letting go when someone tell them to go away or to leave them alone. I know Regina’s reasons where different form Emma’s reasons, but in the end I feel both of them did the same, they gave in.
Emma wanted nothing to do with Hook, and Regina was to afraid to be with someone, that’s why I said their reasons where different, but what both Hook and Robin did was not accept that no. As different as their attitudes where, it’s still the same and it’s not okay in my book. Keep in mind that this has nothing to with me shipping SQ, this is about concent and the lack of it I see in both ships.
I understand if you want to unfollow me after this, I know it’s not pleasant to read this kind of things about one of your ships. Like I said, I don’t actually hate OQ, it’s would be more accurate to say I hate OUaT’s version of OQ. I have no problems with the ship in fics, I’ve read one or two Red Swan and Frozen Swan fics where there’s OQ and I don’t mind it, be it because the pair is not one of the main focuses of the story or in some cases is vastly better written.
Once again, I’m sorry for not properly tagging that relog, I usually put the anti-hood or anti-oq tag for my OQ friends and followers. As I said, sometimes my emotions get the better of me and say some nasty things, but that’s no excuse for that kind of behavior. Do should what you must to keep your dash free of things you don’t want to see, so like I said if you want to unfollow me, I will understand it and support your decision.
I say the same to any OQ that follows me, you can unfollow me if you don’t agree with me, no hard feelings. I don’t want to upset anyone over this, be it OQs or anti-OQs that may think I should hate Robin, which I kinda do in some occasions, but not all the time like I despise Hook. If someone is OQ, I don’t care, it doesn’t have any influence on how I see that person. I have many followers that are OQ and I follow a lot of people that ship OQ.
I think anyone is free to ship whatever they want to ship, so long as it doesn’t promote some kind of harmful behavior or situation. And that is one of the other problems I have with C$, some of the people that ship it. The cult behind C$ is one of the most toxics I know and the recent situation with Asher being attacked by C$ has showed me that the really good C$ers are fewer that I’d hope.
I hope this answered your question @technicallypsychiccupcake, I know I deviated form the matter a bit, but there were some things I need to say for quite some time and just came out now. I needed to be clear on some matters, especially now, with the “return” of RH, which by the way I completely support if it is for closure purpose. If you want to continue this exchange I’m always ready for open and respectful talking, which you’ve already proven to be capable of for not blocking me and politely asking me about this.
To bring this to an end, because it got longer than I thought, I would like to say that I respect and appreciate each and every one of my followers, because they’ve put up with me despite all. I’ll do a better job at tagging, so far I’ve been a mess with that and I need to change that because I have more and more followers, so I need to be an example for them. I will be tagging this anti-cs and anti-oq, to that people that don’t want to see this can avoid it.
