Still scared of flist because of unfortunate "okay, I checkie, OMG TRIGGER" moment. Not anyone's fault, I even knew it was happening, I just didn't know it would be at the top of my flist, which is suspicious clearly universe on sneak attack.

My rant, in short, is this: Those of us who follow the Golden Swan pairing (Mr. Gold [Rumpelstiltskin]/Emma) are being harassed and spied on by some of those who support the Rumbelle pairing (Rumpelstiltskin [Mr. Gold]/Belle). Basically, their pairing is canon, and ours is unlikely to happen. They are accusing us of hating Belle because we can't appreciate how awesome she is. Most of us don't hate Belle - we just haven't been given any reason to like her because she's a flat character so far and seems to exist simply to be Rumple's One True Love. They, in turn, hate Emma for a variety of reasons I'm not entirely sure of. Basically, the more fanatical Rumbellers see the Golden Swan pairing as a threat to theirs, and are lashing out in every way possible. There are sane Rumbellers out there, and I haven't heard of any fanatical Golden Swanners, I haven't gone digging for details.
Yes, I managed to find myself in the middle of a shipping war. I'm doing my best to stay out of it while supporting my pairing and ignoring the fanatics on the other side.
No, the two pairings don't compete at all, at least in my mind. Adam/Erica is just too different from Erica/Dr. Tom to be seen as threats to each other, even if they involve Erica. Personally, I don't believe Adam would have reacted the same way with Dr. Tom as he did with Kai if Dr. Tom had expressed interest in Erica (granted, it's been a while since I watched those episodes, so I could be mis-remembering something). Adam saw Kai as a threat, because he was younger, handsome, and charming. However, I think Adam realized that Kai wasn't mature enough to be a good match for Erica. Dr. Tom is basically the exact opposite of Kai in many regards. Plus, Adam respects Dr. Tom, even if they don't always see eye-to-eye at times. I'm not sure how Adam would have responded if Dr. Tom tried to court Erica, but it would have been interesting to watch.
Opps, wrote a novel there. Sorry!
I *think* I may have spotted Erica in a Canadian Tire pain commercial. but I'm not 100% sure it's her or not. It looks a lot like her, but her one line doesn't sound like her. With Brent, I was 'You look familiar...' *leaned forward towards the TV and squint to see better* 'OMG IT'S BRENT! Yay!' Yeah, he was certainly different from Brent, which is why it took me a bit to realize it was him. The beard he had didn't help either. He appeared in episode 8 of Saving Hope, "Heartsick" if you wanna see him. And apparently he was on an episode of Flashpoint as well. I wonder when?
Also, I realized after that I spammed you with anime titles. Sorry about that, I got over-excited suggesting stuff!
