Once Upon a Time in Wonderland 1x04: The Serpent

Wow! I think I kind of... liked this ep? A lot? Despite being relatively Knave-lite, it was action-packed, had a few interesting confrontations and the minimum of Alice/Cyrus humdrum. All in all, I think it was worth waiting for.

Yes, this is actually the first ep when I was actually interested and not just awwwing at Knave))))

Cool confrontations and yes, Cyrus finally did smth useful... except I don't want him out bc they'd have mushy moments with Alice :/ and angst over her making wishes.

Jafar turned into a semi-cool villain! Less flashy and he'd be great. LOL, I bet his staff would come to life and strangle him or smth XD Instead of being shippy :D

Still, it's touching that Alice would spend a wish on Will. And I do love how ruthless Jafar is. Ruthless, but not stupid. He stops torturing her pretty quickly because he understands it's not the way. And let's not forget the Red Queen's words about Wonderland being a prison. She and Alice seem to have interesting history together, and I'm curious about it.

yes, cool XD

Red Queen and Alice are ttly femslashy. They need more moments like that!

And there should be more of those valets.

By the way, who's willing to bet the old dude chatting with Cyrus is the sultan?

lmao, he spends the episode insisting on killing ppl off and then keeps the sultan alive)))) XD

Same here. XD There was a bit less eyerolling on my part too. XD
Ugh, I don't want Cyrus and Alice to reunite either. Cyrus could potentially be an okay character if he wasn't so mushy. T_T Then again, if those two idjits find each other, they might stop angsting so much and focus on helping the Knave. XD
I bet his staff would come to life and strangle him or smth This should be the show's finale. XDDDD Jafar should kill them all (except the Knave who escapes to Storybrooke or wherever) and is like: muhahha, I won. The staff wakes up, strangles him and goes: LOL nope you didn't. XDDD
he spends the episode insisting on killing ppl off and then keeps the sultan alive Well, it's his epic revenge apparently XDDDDDD Daddy, look how cool I am! XD

[shirogiku]

I approve of that finale))))

FATHER! SLASHY STAFF!

[istne_pieklo]

Hahaha, I bet the sultan's like: Geez, this kid's ttly nuts!

[shirogiku]

also, no, they'd help Knave and then angst about the love triangle with him!

[istne_pieklo]

I'm all for it if it's Cyrus who falls for the Knave and Alice is like: Sorry, what? And then she's like: Hang on, I get two hot guys for the price of one? DEAL!
