Things Alastor (hazbin) and Rumple (ouat) have in common:

dealmakers

have a cane

pretty damn powerful (but have no interest in directly ruling over people... and also amassing more power is not what they ultimately want imo)

very questionable morality

(almost) always seem superior/ one step ahead/ like nothing can surprise them

controlled by something despite their power, so they're looking for a way to free themselves

make a deal with the mc for a favor

shadow does some crazy things

LIARS

"dear(ie)"

have a fancy scary name in addition to their real name (the Radio Demon/ the Dark One)

you can't really tell if they count as a villain or not, because they help the heroes but are also always plotting something

while several "bad guys" around them get a redemption arc, they don't show any interest in redemption most of the time

#to be completed #i love them both so much #i have a type #(platonically)#once upon a time #hazbin hotel #ouat #ouat rumple #hazbin alastor #this might be too niche #rumplestiltskin #mr gold #hazbin hotel alastor #alastor #and yes this is supposed to be a smooth way to transition my blog from only ouat to also hazbin (for now)

Regina Mills being redeemed

I am not uber fond of redemption arcs. They usually do not work in the slightest, but in the case of Regina... it did a bit. She was the victim of more than abuse, she was manipulated by Rumple who could literally see her choices and alter his actions to mess with her until she did as he wanted. He needed her to become an evil being, evil enough to kill and slaughter until she became able to cast the Dark Curse...

Honestly, she never had any real choice... not ever. How can you fight against someone that can see all your choices, molding themselves and you to fulfill their desires?

It actually makes me really sad... why did Rumple get a happy ending again?

There's no logical explanation for how much i love characters being "the" something.

Like, even when it's just a title or nickname people gave them, like "the Mist Warrior" or something - it just sounds really cool. Also, it comes with a reputation, it means their actions made them famous for a specific thing. These characters are always interesting.

But it's even more interesting when it's something that's passed on, when there's always exactly one person (or creature) with that name in the world.

Like the Dark One. Or the Distortion.

These aren't just titles, they come with being a specific thing. When you become that thing, you're still the person you were before to some extent, but you also become a completely different being. It might be the power that corrupts you, or just your new nature forcing you to be a certain way. Either way, you will probably become almost unrecognizable to the people who knew you before that, even if your (currently visible) physical form hasn't changed. Because to some extent, you are now also that thing, a thing that was so many people before you, which obviously also impacts you.

Who even are you then? Are you the person or the creature?

#this trope or whatever it is just hits different #idk why #i love it every time i see it somewhere #and yes this posts theoretically goes on all my blogs aaah #wait i'm seeing parallels between 2 of my favorite characters holy shit #ouat rumple #rumplestiltskin #ouat #the dark one #tma the distortion #michael distortion #helen distortion #tma

I’m sort of new to ouat, could you recommend blogs to follow? (Thank you in advance)

Hi there!!!

Since Mari and Norman have both already recommended a whole bunch of blogs to you already, I won't bother repeating any names that have already come up. Luckily, I still have a bunch of great blogs to rec! :)

@yellowbugifs Minni is an incredible gif maker <3 She's made LOADS of gifs for a full range of characters and episodes and her colouring in particular is always gorgeous. Also, she's just a super nice person. She hasn't been giffing as much lately, but her blog will always be an amazing archive to dig through ~

@wicked-storybrooke Becky not only makes her own beautiful gifsets, but tends to reblog an excellent range of brand new ouat content AND posts from, like, 2014 that had long since been forgotten about. You can find content from across the entirety of the show on her blog, from season 1-7 and the spinoff!

@redknave speaking of the spinoff... you can find some great original wonderland content here. Really gorgeous gifs and edits to enjoy, especially if you're an Anastasia fan :)

@emmaswcns Renee's blog is multifandom BUT...Emma Swan is still her one true love :) If you like Emma and Swan Queen then her blog is worth checking out! <3

@lovecanbesostrange Kat's blog is also multifandom and not ouat specific BUT I absolutely had to tag her here too. If you want to talk Ruby Lucas then you need to talk to Kat. She has THEE best headcanons and ideas and is always a joy to chat about Once with <3 <3 <3

Also! check out @the-truest-believers, @emmaswancharmingjones, @henyrmlls, @lumadreamland and @storybooke (currently on hiatus) for a great range of ouat reblogs and gorgeous original gifs too!

#I have OTHER mutuals that I would have added here too #but those blogs cross too far into the realm of multifandom #SORRY btw i got a bit carried away #also if anyone doesn't want to be on this list for whatever reason just dm me it's no trouble #anyway!!!!!!!#love all these rec lists #ouat #asks

"Once Upon a Time"-Inspired Dreamy Beret

After surfing the web for an ideal accessory for several hours, I have finally found a free pattern on Ravelry by Leslie Dalton that replicates the beret worn by Mary Margaret/Snow White in ABC’s Once Upon A time. I immediately saw its potential: it’s not cosplay, but it is “inspired by”, it’s a bit preppy, and it can be very classy, depending on the rest of the outfit.

I knew right away that this beret could be one of my basics.

Therefore, since it is a staple item, I did not stray away from the original; I have kept it a neutral white. It also makes it an item I associate with the winter season.

Although the cable design gave me a little bit of “finger exercise” and a few drops of sweat, I think it is exactly what makes this hat so beautiful, so it was very well worth the effort! This beret is such a fun and versatile item. Plus, because of its original inspiration, it makes me feel like fairy tale royalty… and all for the very affordable cost of reclaimed white yarn and a few hours of effort while (rather passively and inattentively) watching television. It was very well worth it.

OUAT AU - Electric Touch

Ib: @jackiequick

Characters: Liane Felton St. James, Ethan Lensherr Long, Rick Banner, Cassandra Ashfield Sean, Belladonna, Sherrif Erik Lensherr

Ship: Ethan x Liane

Being a mother is hard. A role your body never builds you for specifically, that you take on nevertheless, is always more special and beautiful when you choose it for yourself. At least, that's what Liane St. James was telling herself as she paced on her lawn, trying not to blow her stack in front of the Sherrif, her neighbour Rick and her best friend Cassandra Sean who was trying to say soothing things.

"She could have already gotten on a plane and flown to another country by now!"

"Be reasonable Lia, Bella is a smart girl."

"Yeah too smart! I'm such a bad mother! She could be dead in a ditch and I wouldn't know...why didn't I give her a cellphone for her birthday..."

"She would never have used it. Trust me, she won't have gone far."

Liane's temper cooled but never fully disappeared. It was a flaw of hers that she had a rather hot temper and if looks could kill she could've hurt many people with a single withering glare. Cassandra was one of the few people who could handle Liane's temper and she was a great friend to her when her rage started to bubble over.

"We can't put out a missing person's alert yet, Miss St. James, its still too early. Besides, she's a teenager. They rebel more than most." The Sherrif scoffed, really wishing he wasn't there. The adults continued to argue as the sound of tires were heard from up the road as an unfamiliar blue car was heading towards the house. Liane was still pacing as the car pulled up and her daughter Belladonna stepped out along with a man who looked to be in his late 20s, perhaps early 30s, with dark hair, green eyes and a clean shaven face. Rick was still grilling his daughter Riley before they realised Belladonna had returned.

"For the eighth time, where is Belladonna?"

"I'm right here."

Liane turned around to see her daughter standing on the lawn and instantly she ran to embrace her intelligent little girl, tears rolling down her cheeks as her heels clacked against the concrete.

"Oh my God you scared me half to death!"

"You can be so dramatic Mother."

"Where did you go? What happened?! I was worried sick..."

"I found my birth father and an uh pen pal.."

Liane looked up and saw a man with her daughters hair and her nose staring back at her, letting go of Bella to greet this stranger who felt oh so familiar to her in a way she couldn't quite put her finger on. He approached nervously and smiled, hands stuffed in his pockets, shrugging.

"Hi."

The Sherrif gave Liane a look before introducing himself to the newcomer and taking Belladonna inside so the adults could talk. Liane looked up at Bella's father trying to look confident but was tapping her nails on her knee the way she did when she was nervous.

"Liane St. James, I'm her adoptive mother."

"Ethan. Ethan Long. It's nice to meet you."

He held out a hand for her to shake and she took it, a crackle of electricity seeming to pass through her as they touched, something seeming to spark inside her as they shook hands. The silence was awkward after they let go of each other and Liane tried to break the ice a little.

"Well I guess I should thank you for bringing her back. Would you like to come inside? I don't know how far she travelled to find you but I wouldn't want you to get back on the road so soon after that...revelation. Uh, drink?"

"Uh.. yeah yeah that would...yeah. Thanks."

Liane smiled and led him inside of her house. The house was very obviously decorated with femininity in mind, pastel shades on the walls, bursts of pink and purple scattered throughout the decor and furniture and a few items that belonged to Bella in shades of jet black or grey showed that their tastes very clearly differed.

Ethan took a seat in the kitchen as Liane busied herself looking for supplies, rummaging through cupboards for cups and such to make him feel welcome.

"Tea? Coffee?"

"Uh coffee is fine thanks."

"Black?"

"Yeah Uh two sugars thanks."

Liane got to work making drinks, dumping coffee into a mug that said Fighter-Town, Maine on it and brewing a vibrant tea in a dainty tea cup covered in flowers for herself.

"So Ethan, where did my elusive girl find you?"

"Uh Boston actually so not...not very far."

"Oh I see, is it just you then?"

"Yeah uh...yeah it's just me."

Liane brought over the mug of coffee and her tea and sat at the table with him, taking off her dark blazer to reveal a pink frilled blouse and kicked off a pair of pink kitten heels as she sipped her tea. She loosened her long blonde hair from its tight chignon and it cascaded down her back, instantly looking at least ten years younger.

"So what happened to Bella's mother, if that's not too personal a question?"

"Uh well its sort of complicated I guess. Messy breakup, neither of us felt ready, it wasn't really my decision but we were young and foolish."

"I know what that's like...." Liane responded, stirring her cup listlessly. There was sadness in her eyes as she gazed just past Ethan at the window overlooking the town, clearly trying not to dwell on the past but not quite being able to escape it.

"Uh so what about you? Is there someone in your life?"

Liane laughed but there was no humor. She put the teaspoon down and looked at Ethan directly as she spoke.

"Not anymore. There was someone, started out like a dream and then turned into a nightmare. I've never been very lucky with love. I tend to attract the wrong type of person. Lucky for me Bella has her head screwed on right. She sees through those men quick as anything, her opinions are harsh but she's never been wrong. If she comes up to me and says 'Mom, that man is dangerous' I listen good and get out of there fast. She's a smart girl."

"So I've heard..." Ethan quipped, trying to lighten the mood. Liane smiled, starting to relax. She was beginning to see flashes of her daughter in him, the way he spoke, his mannerisms, the way his eyes moved as she spoke, it was eerie but strangely comforting.

"So how does one end up in Fighter-Town eh?"

"I was born here, it's all I've ever known. Never wanted to go anywhere else, never tried either..." she said, once again gazing out the window. This seemed to take Ethan by surprise, a slight air of suspicion coming over him as her eyes seemed to cloud over for a moment before returning to him.

"What never? Not even on vacation? Disneyland? Niagara Falls? Yellowstone? Hell, NYC?"

"Nope. Never really felt the need to go anywhere. Besides this place isn't that bad. We do have a beach!"

"A beach? What color is the sea?"

"Depends on the time of year but its almost blue?"

Ethan laughed at that, making Liane chuckle too.

"It's not much but, it's home I guess. Always has been."

They fell silent again after that, not really sure of what else to say. Liane traced the lip of her cup carefully while Ethan just sat there awkwardly, checking his phone every so often.

"Damn, reception up here is kinda lousy."

"Eh you get used to it. Internet comes and goes and sometimes phone calls get cut off but yknow."

"So uh well, what do you do? For work I guess."

"Oh uh I'm a lawyer. Self-employed which is easier said than done. Doesn't pay...that well I suppose but it makes me happy and keeps food on the table. And people tend to trust you when you vouch for them."

Ethan raised an eyebrow, clearly not expecting to hear that but pleasantly surprised to learn his daughter was being raised by an intelligent woman. As he finished his coffee, the Sherrif poked his head into the room, saying his goodbyes.

"I'd best be off, I'll be at the station if you need anything else, Ms St. James. Bella seems alright, you take care of yourselves now."

"Thanks again Sherrif. I'll see you around."

The Sherrif nodded, touching his hat and headed out the door, leaving the two alone.

"So...the decor, Bella's idea?"

"Oh no! Not even a little bit. She hates it all, pastels, pinks, fluffy and cute is not her style. But she respects my love for it. On her ninth birthday she very politely informed me that my taste didn't match her own and she would prefer to wear darker clothes and have a bedroom that suits her style from now on. And that she would like to play the violin. So we went out and got her all those things and she seemed content."

"Wow she just asked that? And you weren't offended?"

Liane chuckled, picking up a lavender leather jacket off the back off Ethan's chair and hanging it on a hook by the door.

"I always treated Bella like a person when raising her. Never used baby talk with her, never spoke down to her, told it like it is, she was the one who told Me Santa wasn't real so that tradition died early on, never believed in the Tooth Fairy or the Easter Bunny but she's a hell of a reader. Her shelves are covered in fantasy stories, I guess she likes the escape."

Ethan smiled and the light seemed to dance in his eyes as he did, bringing a warm smile to Liane's face in turn. She felt comfortable around Ethan for some reason, but she wasn't quite sure why yet. She noticed his cup was empty and went to reach for it to put it away and accidentally grabbed his hand instead, the two of them suddenly locking eyes as that feeling of electricity suddenly ran through Liane again, that warm spark that made her question everything.

"I'm so sorry..."

"I was reaching for the-"

"No you're good I-"

"Wow, your hand is warm-"

"Well I-"

They were cut short by the sound of Belladonna clearing her throat by the door, her arms crossed over her chest as her large, dark eyes landed on Liane's.

"Your show about insipid doctors and nurses wishing to fornicate with one another has started. Your love for it dictates that you wouldn't want to miss it."

"Forni- oh Grey's! Of course, thanks sweetie, thank you for the reminder."

"Grey's Anatomy?"

"Yeah the characters are intriguing. Oh judge me, I could care less, I'm allowed to like dumb things."

Ethan laughed and the flicker of a smile appeared on Bella's face briefly as well. Liane rolled her eyes, tossing her hair over her shoulder as she got up and walked Ethan to the door.

"It's been a pleasure, uh I would suggest if you plan on sticking around you find a room at Grandpa's Diner up the road, I don't really have the space to accommodate you unless you were okay with the couch?"

"No uh, I'll go check out that diner place and..."

"It's okay if you need space after all this. Take as much time as you need. Really." She smiled, seeing the sun start to sink in the distance, the sky now a burning pink and purple as the day drew to a close.

"Here uh, take my number if you want to come and see Bella at all, just in case you drop by and we're not in." She offered, handing him a pink business card with her details on. He smiled and wrinkled his nose, noting the scent of freshly cut roses on the card.

"Scented?"

"It leaves an impression, yknow?"

"Sure does. See you around St. James."

"Welcome to Fighter-Town, Ethan." Liane smiled, waving him off as he left. As she shut the door she saw his car pull away and watched him go, feeling that tug in her chest again, and sighed.

"You are the least subtle person I know."

Liane jumped, turning around to see Belladonna stood behind her, her face as always impassive but there was a flicker of amusement in her eyes.

"Don't. It's only natural to try and connect with someone so closely linked to your family. Do you want to stay in touch?"

"Do you?"

"Yeah, but he's your Dad, what's your verdict, my little raven?"

"I'd like to see him again. Ask him questions. Tell him about myself. Fix things. And other stuff."

"Duly noted. Please tell me you paused the TV."

Bella reached into the pocket of her dress, holding out the TV remote.

"It boggles my mind that you still doubt my intellect to this day."

Liane smiled, taking the remote from her and headed for the lounge, a strange warmth now lingering on her heart. Ethan Long was now occupying space in her mind. Here we go again.

Hope you enjoyed! Thanks again to Lor for restarting my OUAT obsession and getting my mind into the world of fantasy..again
