Jennifer Morrison & Robert Carlyle appreciation thread

From Jensengirl

"Ultimately, the dilemma that Emma always ends up having with Mr. Gold, sort of from this point on, is that she does not agree with his methods and she does not agree with the way that he goes about doing things, but she does agree with his results, oftentimes. She suspects that he has ulterior motives that are serving him, but those ulterior motives that are serving him are also serving Emma sometimes. So she, once again, has to sort of choose the lesser of two evils"

“He started peeling his skin off and throwing it at me. It was really upsetting.”

Thank you for the new thread and I love the title

**Persephone** · 01-16-2013, 08:35 AM

Thanks for the new thread Mima

.

Finally we are on thread #17

. I feel like we were on the other like forever

.

Vera-Sabe · 01-16-2013, 08:42 AM

You're welcome, girls.

Glad you love the title, Lisa.

No problem

Ilda, I brought this over from the previous thread. Those are the many reasons why I love them together, too; whether they're allies, romantic partners, or just friends. They are themselves when they are with each other.

I know, right?

It sure seemed like it took forever to finally get to this thread.

**Persephone** · 01-16-2013, 08:49 AM

I laugh everytime i think about Charming´s reaction when Rumpel tried to touch Snow´s belly

.

Poor Charming, his baby girl has a lot in common with the Dark One

.

Vera-Sabe · 01-16-2013, 08:55 AM

Rumpel really tried to do that? I never noticed it.

Too true. She does. Though, it's not like Charming can really do anything about their personalities.

**Persephone** · 01-16-2013, 09:05 AM

Yeah, it was in Pilot, the cell scene...it´s before the whole "Emma..."

.

I also laugh at Charming´s face during this scene:

Mr. Gold: Well… A long time ago, in another life, I got to know a sheepdog or two.

Emma: That’s fascinating.

When Emma said that, Charming looked at her like "Hum...?!"

.

ElizaSparrow · 01-16-2013, 10:39 AM

Hey, TFTNT!!! I love the new title and I'm so glad we made it

I'll post the new round of the Survivor in a short while since #6 is out

Ilda: Are there gifs of that scene where Emma says "It's fascinating"?

Everyone: I also feel like Rumple can only relax and be himself with Emma for some reasons! Not to mention how she's the only one who never called him "a coward"/view him as such

Vera-Sabe · 01-16-2013, 10:55 AM

Eliza: That's a good point. I never realized/noticed that. Emma never did call him a coward. Yeah, she didn't trust him, she wanted to punch him, but she never called him that. Huh... how very interesting!

I forgot the episode this was in, but I love it when Rumpel says, "You don't exactly approve of my methods." And Emma replies, "But I approve of your results."

**Persephone** · 01-16-2013, 10:55 AM

Mima: I love when Emma says that to him

.

Eliza: I´ve found some gifs from that scene but it´s when Emma does magic...

Here´s some pretties

.

The magic moment

.

This is my favourite

.

They are all from myfrozensanctuary

ElizaSparrow · 01-16-2013, 11:24 AM

Oooops...

The last thread has been closed so I can't repost the Survivor!! Someone has an idea about how to do it?

Ilda: I'm loving those gifs!!

Vera: Thanks! Yeah, she's really the only one to see him as an equal somehow! And not as someone running away from everything he's got! And I love that

I think it's in 1x20 when Emma comes to Gold for help

I love that line too!!

**Persephone** · 01-16-2013, 11:37 AM

Eliza: I use to have the survivor code on a Word document. I´m gonna see if i still have it

.

Thanks bb

That's useful! I should do so because once the threads are closed there's not much left to do

Vera-Sabe · 01-16-2013, 11:55 AM

Ilda: Thanks for posting those pretties! I love the gifs and, of course, love Emma and Mr. Gold.

Eliza: ITA. Emma does regard him as an equal and I think it goes the same for Rumpel/Mr. Gold in regards to Emma as well. They have that mutual respect for each other first and that's what makes everything else about them fall into place.

Sorry the previous thread closed and you couldn't copy and paste the survivor in here. Sometimes the mods don't close it right away, so I was surprised how quickly they closed it.

**Persephone** · 01-16-2013, 12:03 PM

Eliza: I´ve send you a code. See if it helps

.

Mima: I wish i could find some gifs about them

. I can make some arts but i suck when it comes to gifs
