Once Upon a Time Wiki:Profile Quote Change/Archive 2022

Approved Proposals

"Welcome to Storybrooke"

Current

Welcome to Storybrooke.

Proposed replacement

Kurt Flynn: Who are you? What is this place?
Sheriff Graham: Name's Graham. I'm the sheriff. Welcome to Storybrooke.

—Kurt Flynn and Sheriff Graham^src

The old quote merely repeats the episode's title. This version gives the situation some context. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily (talk) 23:27, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Raphael Alejandro

Current

I like playing Roland and having fun on set with everyone.

—Raphael Alejandro ^src

Proposed replacement

Working on Once Upon a Time was so much fun! I was only 5 years old when I did my first episode in season 3. Sean and Lana are amazing actors and caring people. We always had a great time on set, and they made me feel very welcome. One thing that I remember was Sean teaching me about how to hold a bow and arrow for one of our scenes. I've always looked forward to my days on set because all cast and crew were so nice to me and treated me very well.

—Raphael Alejandro ^src

This one is longer and more reflective. The other one was made when he was a child, now he is older and more mature; the quote should reflect that. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 06:25, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Red Queen's palace

I took this throne. I took Wonderland.

—The Red Queen to Jafar^src

Proposed replacement

Tomorrow's your wedding day. You're to be queen of this castle.

—Cora to the Red Queen^src

The current quote is not really about the Red Queen's palace. This one is. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 07:00, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

Cyrus' talisman

Current

Alice, that necklace is magic. That's why it survived.

—Will Scarlet to Alice^src

Proposed replacement

Our hearts are entwined. From now on I will know when you are near. And you will know.

—Cyrus to Alice^src

I think this one sounds cooler and more romantic :) You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 22:35, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

"Trust Me"

Current

Don't worry. You can trust me. I'm here to help.

—Silvermist to Alice^src

Proposed replacement

You just have to trust me. How 'bout we make a deal? I'll never move on from you if you never move on from me.

—Alice to Cyrus^src

"Trust me" is spoken four times in the episode (and "trust you" three times). This quote is way much exciting than the current one (and the other two) and perfectly sums up one of the core plot points of the episode, and the show in general. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 10:55, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

"Dirty Little Secrets"

Current

You let your desires override the fates. Now, it will be your fate to serve the desires of others.

—Nyx to Cyrus, Taj and Rafi

Proposed replacement

Alice: Why didn't you tell me?
Cyrus: Because...I was afraid I'd lose you. Everything that's happened here is my fault. The curse, the bottles, Jafar. All of your suffering. It's all punishment for mistakes that I've made.

—Alice and Cyrus

Unlike the current quote, this one actually reflects the title. Also, Cyrus keeping secrets from Alice is one of the plot points of the episode. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 06:35, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

Great Divide

Current

The pure of heart shall make the leap.

—Great Divide plaque^src

Proposed replacement

I've heard of that place. There's a darkness there.

—Alice to the Red Queen^src

The current one is poetic and cute, but I like this one better; it is darker and more foreboding. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 12:23, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

Genie wisdom book

Current

Jafar: When are you going to let me study the spells inside that book?
Amara: When you're ready. Which, as of now, you're not.

—Jafar and Amara^src

Proposed replacement

This book contains all the world's wisdom about genies.

—Jafar to Amara^src

This one sums up what the book is about and sounds way better :-) You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 15:51, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

Magic staves

Current

You have something that belongs to me. My staff. Where is it?

—Jafar to Will Scarlet^src

Proposed replacement

He's here. The one you spoke of. The man with the serpent staff.

—Farzeen Shahmed to Cyrus^src

The other one was the best I could find at the time, but I never liked it very much. This one sounds better. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 00:02, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

Queen of Hearts' palace

Current

Hook: I've told you all I know, now have some honor and kill me.
Cora: Honor? For the pirate who snuck into my palace to assassinate me?

—Hook and Cora^src

Proposed replacement

Honor? For the pirate who snuck into my palace to assassinate me?

—Cora to Hook^src

I think it sounds better without Hook's part. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 02:51, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

"Darkness on the Edge of Town"

Current

We all have something in common... apart from mutual distaste. We're villains. And it's time the villains got their happy endings.

—Rumplestiltskin to Cruella, Maleficent and Ursula

Proposed replacement

So if it's magic, what happens if it leaves town for a world with no magic? No magic, no beast. So all we have to do is lead it over the town line.

—Emma to Regina

The current quote does not actually reflect the title -- this one does; plus, it sums up one of the key plot points of the episode. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 03:25, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

"Bad Blood"

Current

Jafar: Thank you, Father.
Sultan: You will not use that word. I am not your father. And you are not my son.

Proposed replacement

This belonged to him. Return it. He will remember. You are his blood.

—Ulima to Jafar^src

I prefer a quote that has the word "blood" in it and directly references the title. You don't have to be crazy to hang out with me. I'll train you. –Nightlily 01:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
