SERIOUSLY, RIGHT? That castle was so bizarre!

And I'm so glad you agree with me re: the fringe. I'm seeing icons of her with that look and I'm like WHO THOUGHT THIS LOOKED GOOD, COME ON. Was it meant to look like a heart? Was it supposed to be symbolic? JUST NO.

she broke my heart (ahahahaha)

Lol, it's so ~awkward talking about hearts in relation to her...I keep going to write something like 'she's stolen my heart' and then realizing it doesn't sound too good...

she just looked so sad throughout that episode

*nodnod* I think she has softened through her years as Regina, she's mellowed a bit, and she was in damage control mode instead of attacking people right away. (omg, when she was all 'IDK what I ever did to you, Miss Swan', I wanted to hug her so bad. She was so crushed! But I love them punching each other- it was so unexpected, but I think understandable from both of them. Emma was pretty damn snotty to her- although I hated Graham more, wtf, 'It's you, not me'. I know she's the Evil Queen, but he didn't know that and I'm not seeing what's so hideously wrong with their relationship, y'know, that he could whinge about it so much)

It's telling to me that she didn't off Graham the moment the spell started losing its hold on him. I know that doesn't sound like much- 'oh, she didn't kill him RIGHT AWAY'- look, I'm not saying she should be praised or anything, but I do think she didn't want to lose him, she actually did have some feelings for him and she kept trying to persuade him to stick with her so she wouldn't have to dispose of him. AGAIN NOT SAYING IT'S A SIGN OF MORAL FIBRE, just interesting to me. I guess after 20+ years, she formed an attachment to him, she found it hard to go back into EVIL QUEEN mode.

Lol, ITA, she needs to wear those glorious outfits again! Only people in Storybrooke would be side-eyeing her a lot.

I suppose they'll mention that the EQ remodelled the place after their marriage, if they ever want to explain why it looks so bizarre.

I LOVE THE PUNCH SCENE, so fierce. I mean, I'm always like 'violence doesn't solve anything', but they were both so on the edge and just filled with emotion and it was awesome. :D I just really like that they didn't go for a more 'civilized' sissy slap, no, they went all out.

*nodnod* Regina put way more effort into trying to coax him to stay with her than would be warranted if she thought nothing of him, if he was merely a toy. It almost reminds me of how she is with Henry, desperately clinging even as people leave her behind. No wonder she reacted badly to Emma throwing that in her face.

She should run a fashion magazine, not be mayor. (I'm picturing her as the lead in Devil Wears Prada now, lol)
