OUAT: I just finished watching this weeks episode and I thought Regina's transformation in fairytale land from sweet and innocent to evil was a little too abrupt.

Unless you take into consideration the possibility that's she's just nuts. After all, back in fairytale land she was a full-grown adult who knew what her mother was capable of, yet she was unable to withstand Evil Mom. But she's been on this epic revenge quest because of a little girl, who had no idea who Evil Mom was, and had been unable to outwit her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The definition of siren in current English includes sexiness, so I don't feel that I'm reaching out to untrod lands in order to suggest that a manifestation of such should project same.

He does say "talking women out of their comfort zone is what he does." Incidentally, I'm sure the scene where Kenzie was purring as Bo and Dyson rubbed her feet inspired some really bad Kenzie/Dyson/Bo threesome fic. I will not seek out the bad Lost Girl fanfic.

I bet Dyson's had enough decades to really understand how to give a good foot-massage.

That all makes sense, but if the show was going to go there, I wish that they had given us some sense that she wasn't of sound mind before she snapped.

You mean some sign of it in her youth? Because there are lots of signs of later in her life, such as cutting her father's heart out for her spell. Unless you just view that as being pragmatic.

Yes, I did mean in her youth. You're right there is plenty of evidence that she is currently bug fuck, but I wanted a slightly slower progression of how she got there. Her going from saving Snow's life to wanting to gleefully wanting to make Snow's life miserable in a matter of one episode didn't flow well for me.

Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, especially since she realized that the whole runaway pony thing had been created by her mother.

Not really even in one episode. In a matter of seconds. Young Regina should already have had signs of being a bit "off" before the rescue or at least before the running away. She should have had something visible.

Right now, the first two episodes of Korra are free on iTunes (in the US, at least).
