6.07 – Heartless (Review)

Posted on by

Ok I just watched this episode, and I know I say this every week. Seriously the best part of season six is the amazing turn Lana Parrilla is doing as the Evil Queen, and then the different take on the same character as Regina, which is different from the Regina of the last few seasons. Honestly, it’s a master class in acting.

Anyway, I’m not as positive as usual because the writing kinda got to me. Sorry I do try my best, but on my blog I called this weeks post ‘like a really bad fanfic’ because that’s kinda what I thought.

Spoilers under the cut.

I need more reaction gifs. Anyone know where I can get some? For now this one will have to do …

I’m chipping away at Chapter Six of Painting Layers of Love and it just took a turn I did not expect. I’m blaming Neal entirely.

so excited to hear you’re working on this!

I know! I feel really guilty about it. I have no idea how it’s been a month, I swear I blinked and it happened. Anyway, I’m determined to update this Friday and then try and update fortnightly again. Hopefully that will stick this time! 🙂

@beliza-fryler thank you! That’s really nice to hear. I hope you will enjoy the chapter.

Beauty and the Tragedy Belle: did anyone else figure out what was going on (you dying)? Or was it something that you and Gold were able to keep hidden?

Why would anyone else have known? I didn’t know until Anthony broke down and told me the moment we were alone.

Nothing persisted from the previous loops, only the last one mattered. Given events, there is a general belief there was some sort of scandal. However, Anthony’s swift proposal of marriage meant nobody really cared, especially because he just has money and no title.

Personally I hope nobody ever finds out. It’s the kind of power some men would kill to possess. I certainly won’t ever tell a soul, and I believe that Anthony wishes he could forget it ever happened. However, his frequent nightmares that this last loop was just a dream, won’t let him. At least I’m always there to soothe him and remind him that I am alive, and I’m not going to leave him.

Beauty and the Tragedy (2nd ending). What will you guys do with the time machine now?

Gold: I can scarcely believe that after … I don’t even know how many loops, that Belle is finally alive and safe. I want to just lock the room and leave it locked. I have no need of the machine now but … I don’t even want to consider needing it again. However, if I did … if … I can’t even think about it.

Belle: We’re going to destroy it.

Gold: Belle sweetheart …

Belle: No Anthony. Should the worst happen I don’t want you to put yourself through that again. There are some things that just shouldn’t have been invented.

Gold: But …

Belle: Eternity wouldn’t be enough. Neither of us need the temptation. Mankind should not have such power. We’re going to destroy it.

@robertcarlyle_ OUAT Tonight #Dontknowwhattosay

I saw this tweet just now and urk so freaking excited. I keep telling myself not to be because the scene probably isn’t going to go anyway I would like, but ahhhh that picture! All the feels! Seriously I’ve been doing major soundless gesturing at the screen (because I’m with other people) and just eeeeek I can’t wait to watch!! 🙂

Today my fic fangirl squeal and celebratory collage goes to @still-searching47 and her Rushbelle romance Swim to the Stars.

Find out what makes Rush lose his snark. Will Belle lure him away from his research and into some trunks?

Thank you for writing and sharing.

Oh wow. You are a lovely, lovely person. Thank you so much! This is amazing 🙂

I um utterly in love with this GoldenLace fic that I’m writing. Which is good because I’m 4k in and I’m nowhere near the part of the fic where I can use the Monthly Rumbelling prompt. It’s ok, I was told that if I used the sentence anywhere in the fic it counted, or I might do a brief flashforward as otherwise the sentence will be several thousand words in or more.

You know, quite often I’ll start a fic, and then realize I don’t really care about it, but then it’s too late and so I keep writing purely to finish it. This is a rare pleasure to really enjoy what I’m writing. I hope it lasts 🙂
