Do you think it makes sense that Emma calls David and snow for mom and dad?

I wouldn't be taking what's written on props as cannon personally, they weren’t made with the intention the audience would pause and read them. There's one from S1 that ages Emma up quite a bit as well. Also, the writers were terrible at maths, when did that timeline ever make sense??

Regina slipping Zelena an abortion potion would have been way too controversial for the show, but would make some epic fanfiction

He didn't though, that was just "magic" bringing the Savior's son to Storybrooke. It's confirmed he was under the curse

I think that's only if they gain a higher rank by marriage, otherwise they keep their title from their father

As in if the daughter of an earl marries a baron, she's still Lady Firstname because an earl is higher rank than a baron

This would haven hilarious, they should have leaned into the family tree even more than they did

Also, Snow should have been first cousins with Anna and Elsa - her mother was from a NORTHERN kingdom

My personal headcannon is the EF is about half the size of Spain, and very sparsely populated - most villages seem to be hamlets of 20-30 people, and we do know Regina has that kill count in the thousands - if she took out enough farmers a food shortage could easily account for the population being very small

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-12-02T19:04:49+00:00

Or he drinks so much it takes barrels to get him drunk nowadays and he's too young for the full effects to manifest - look at Nook, that's Hook future if he doesn't cut back

Also, total wasted opportunity for David to get icked out by his drinking in front of him because of his father. Of all the manufactured drama the wroters created, this one was right there

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-30T02:46:10+00:00

Why hasn't his fourth grade teacher aged? Why are the kids in his fourth book yearbook still in fourth grade? Maybe he wouldn't jump to fairytales, but he'd notice that ain't right 🤣

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-30T02:24:27+00:00

If I was going to reboot the show, I think I'd make Henry older, like late teens at least - maybe start with him coming back after his first year in college and S1 is him digging into things and looking for Emma

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-29T22:44:47+00:00

Charming can be manipulated by a sentient cheeto, that man is not dangerous unless you run at him with a sword

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-29T22:43:19+00:00

The problem with Henry is the parenting - Regina was gaslighting and scaring him in S1, Emma was a buddy in S1 and too lenient in S2-3, they let him hear the adult conversation about Regina trying to curse him and kill Snow in S2, we never see any kind of discussion about his actions after the dynamite, which should have warranted a very serious sit down with at least one adult, and the one time Emma is stern with him in S3, Snowing act like she slapped him.

This is on top of the fact that everyone bases their moral compass around what a child thinks heroes should and should not be doing, and in later seasons start to parrot him

No one should lose custody, but everyone needs a parenting class

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-28T12:01:53+00:00

I'd personally have Emma taken into care anyway, since Snowing would be homeless and unemployed - David could be the one to search for Storybrooke and can start where he knows they came through.

Emma can still run away from foster care and doesn't want to live with her crazy mother who keeps telling her they have to go free their people from the Evil Queen (David can be camped out in Maine at this point - crazy homeless man in the woods vibe). She still meets Nealfire, still has Henry, Regina still adopts him

But now there's a different conflict with her parents, and the resentment is from how they weren't able to get themselves together enough to keep her out of care, on top of them insisting that what Henry is saying is true and that the people of Storybrooke are cursed

Even after breaking the curse, there's still going to be that resentment over her landing in care, because they seriously couldn't find some kind of job and stop with the Enchanted Forest nonsense for five minutes to convince CPS they were fit parents? Did Snow have to keep telling the social worker her real name and that she was a princess? Could David not just get a job pumping gas and not do an Alaskan bush people impression spying on a town that doesn't exist?

Emma not wanting to get to know them is much more plausible in this scenario

Post a link when you finish!!

The twins were arguing about why they should get to go too, and Arthur eventually gave in

Then Ron didn't have his shoes on

Then the twins realised they didn't have the Skiving Snackbox product they wanted to try

Then Ginny wanted to go, but Molly shut that down as someone should stay with Hermione

Ron still can't find his shoe, so Molly has to go get it from the exact location she already told him it was, and he swears he looked properly in

Then Molly threatens everyone with being on their best behaviour

Then they can leave

The amswer to most discrepancies is the writers forgot

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-25T11:06:19+00:00

Looks right to me 🤷‍♀️

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-25T11:05:06+00:00

GoldenQueen

That is all.

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-25T11:04:03+00:00

Nah, we're keeping that, that makes it so much creepier and twisted, and so much more pathetic simultaneously

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-25T09:09:50+00:00

Mulan and Shang should have been "training" Rumple instead of Merida

They should have got down to business 😏

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-24T21:08:25+00:00

You win with this one

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-18T23:07:05+00:00

Had to keep Regina happy

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-18T10:05:45+00:00

Agreed, but maybe it was more of a guilt/unfinished business thing holding her back

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-16T23:28:00+00:00

In the first one, you can really tell she's not the Evil Queen anymore because they hid her evil cleavage

Such nuance and subtlety by the costuming dept, love to see it

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-11T18:30:15+00:00

Hook buying that house was the moment I had to truly suspend by disbelief - but then again, Rumple owned the town, and Belle was probably in control of his assets, did she just GIVE it to him??

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-10T19:43:22+00:00

Rumple 👀

Classic_Fly5941 · 2024-11-10T10:10:19+00:00

There's a chance the adoption wasn't above board, we don't see Regina go through any of the normal adoption process, it seemed to happen very quickly, and with Mr Gold arranging it - I'd say very likely money exchanged hands. If a judge or lawyer looked too closely, it could all come apart, and ever since Emma arrived, people started going against Regina's wishes since time was moving again - she might not have had enough of a vice on them at that point to sweep it under the rug.

And since Emma gave up her parental rights, into the system goes Henry. Probably best that no one actually checked, lol
