This is part of the reason I don’t engage in frivolous “ships” and even try to focus on the merits of the story and actual objective thinking.

Opinions are fine and we shouldn’t base things off the vocal minority and the toxicity that appears far too often in the fandom. (Also, why even on R&R I have actress and writer bashing to be a minimal.)

Without subjectivity and reading behind fictional lines, anyone should clearly see that SwanQueen wasn’t going to happen and it would have been countered by everything presented in the story. (It’s also how I knew Regina wasn’t going to be the LGBT signficant other.) There is a Discussion to be made about some problematic romantic ideals on this show and how redemption is held and etc, etc, but attacking the actress is over the pail.

Honestly, I thought that the toxicity would die down as most of the cast left, but I guess people stuck around and fight counterintuitively to their narrative. Mulan or even Ruby Slippers are a better argument that a opinionated fan-canon.

I do reiterate to not allow the very vocal minority to control the narrative and to continually make things toxic for others.
