You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
I have officially decided to reblog this every day until my babies are reunited. That is all.

I keep seeing this scene used in Regina and Henry gif/photo sets. For some reason it seems to crop up a lot lately; I’ve seen it three times this week at least. USually it’s used to show them together, one post used it to show times that Henry left Regina.
It confuses me, to use this to show a positive relationship between them. In this moment they are watching Ava and Nicholas get into the sheriff’s car with Emma. For the first time in his whole life Henry has had a chance to start and make friends his age. Friends that will continue to age, who will be his peers. These are the only children that we have seen Henry interact with in normal play. Two years in the life of a child, and we’ve only seen him say hi to Grace, and Neal recently mentioned him playing with August. Other than that it’s just these two kids.
And Regina is sending them away. Not only that, but Henry knows that anyone who crosses the town line gets hurt, and as much as Regina denies the curse to him she knows that he believes it.
No, you can’t take them! They can’t leave Storybrooke, Emma! They can’t. Something bad will happen. (Henry to Emma)
This is not an affectionate moment showing the love between them, and it’s not about mean Henry pulling away from poor Regina. This is Regina punishing Emma and the children that refused to be hers, and making Henry watching knowing that it would hurt him. This is one of many examples of emotional abuse inflicted on Henry by Regina.

Reasons I love Nealfire:
- ran into another person with as messed up a background as his own and wanted to make a home with her, despite how badly his attempts at making a happy family had gone before.
- gave up the woman he loved to give her a chance to find her real family (okay, he did it in a bad way, but his intentions were good)
- sold everything he had and sent it to her (even if it was mostly stolen en route) so she could at least have a life after he screwed everything up.
- finds out he’s a father and immediately wants to make up for lost time.
- terrified of magic and his father, but still comes back to the town where his father is the most powerful badass, because he can’t face watching his father die.
- stands and fights against two witches with a sword and years of experience of the folly of parenting while addicted to power to protect the aforementioned father that he has spent years avoiding and the woman he still loves.
- hears a stranger screaming in the street and runs out to help him, because no one else in Storybrooke is going to go against the Dark One.
- lets himself fall through another portal to save his son from being raised alone, and his true love from being sucked in with him.
In summation, I like Nealfire lots.

Here are some awesome and empowering quotes from several very strong female celebrities.
And Kristen Stewart.
No, you know what? Fuck you.
Let me tell you about Kristen Stewart.
Let’s talk about how she’s the centerpiece of one of the most inexplicably popular misogynistic pieces of film shit and somehow gets blamed for it sucking, despite the fact that, hey, the books were actually worse. For those who were lucky enough to escape reading the actual books, her apparent lack of emotion is 100% accurate to Bella’s character, because Bella is in fact not a character but a blank white wall for fourteen-year-old girls to project themselves onto. Robert Pattinson is not the only one in the cast who hates Twilight, thank you.
Let’s talk about how she got crucified in the media for having an affair with a married man, when that man was her director. And let’s remember that she was called all manner of things for “ruining her relationship with RPattz” when she wasn’t even engaged to the dude, let alone married with kids. But oh no, she gets called a slut because she’s Kristen Stewart, she gets her career fucked because she’s Kristen Stewart, and the dude gets off scott free.
Let’s talk about how she is incredibly shy and anxious (rather, incidentally, like Chris Evans) but does film anyway, because she’s just that awesome.
Fuck your noise. She’s not the best actor in the world but she sure as hell doesn’t deserve that kind of shit.
^^^^^^^
Kristen IS a good actress. Watch Speak. Watch Zathura. Watch Panic Room. Watch The Messengers.
Twilight just sucks away talent.
