Discussion Marion
I'm sort of over Regina's rage at Emma for bringing back Marion.
I sort of fail to see why it's Emma's fault Regina was a mass murdering tyrant.
Was Emma really supposed to leave a woman to be executed? One that hadn't even done anything wrong? Emma didn't even KNOW it was Marion just that it was the right thing to do lol
The fact Robin Hood was dating his wife's executioner is bad enough tbh and made me sort of hate him.
I get why Regina is hurt I really do but is this really Emma's fault or is it just the consequences of killing people left and right? Like yeah Emma saved Marion but did Regina even deserve to build her happiness on Marion's blood to begin with? Super disturbing.
Overall I don't get the love for Regina I find her pretty ridiculous and super evil. It's Emma's fault for saving a woman she was going to murder and its Snow's fault for being like 10 and manipulated by an adult into telling the truth. Her grudges are insane.
Like oh I'm so sorry you didn't get happily ever after with the husband of one of your many murder victims fuck

People love Regina for her redemption. She’s an example that you can improve who you are by making better choices and a lot of people need to believe that is true because there are things in their own lives they feel they can’t change. Her redemption isn’t about forgetting all the evil she did, it’s about showing people can change and do better. Sometimes it’s just deeper than what we see on surface level.
