I want to say a few things, so  did the events of Brave happen on Once like in Frozen. I adored this show, but it's supposed to be about LITERARY characters not DISNEY characters. I love Disney and Merida is awesome, but Brave wasn't even based off a story. At least Frozen was based off of The Snow Queen. If they wanted Merida on the show I wish they had changed her story a little or made her a fairy tale character like Goldilocks (Brave does involve bears after all) or even the unamed princess from The Princess and the Pea. If not an actual character they should tie her in with some Celtic story. I love her character and everything and the whole thing with her brothers being captured and the clans thinking she's unfit to rule is interesting, but I remember when they said she was Rumple's mother, was she orginally supposed to but instead they just made her Merida?
