Okay. So I have seen a lot of Marian hate on tumblr. Okay, so you ship OutlawQueen! So do I and do I want Marian dead? NO. Because she has done nothing. Zip. Zero. I want Marian alive and happy, but I don't think that she could be happy with Robin because he's changed. He's not the same man she fell in love with. And she has a kid! Granted, Roland probably doesn't really have that many memories of her, being 5, but he does know who she is and it would hurt him. But I think more and more people are realizing Marian dying is NOT the answer. 
I have however, seen an alarming amount of Regina hate. It seems like these people refuse to accept that she has changed. Fine she still has a long way to go! But she HAS CHANGED. If you don't like Regina fine! But ignoring something that Adam and Eddy have stated to be happening just makes you ignorant. 
*rant over* and calm now. 
I'll probably complain anything but I no longer have the energy.

I loved Outlaw Queen I was one of its most loud defenders when it came out because it showed two people having a second chance in life and love after so much heartache. The problem that I legitimately have with Outlaw Queen which really ruined any hope I had for this couple being as good as Snowing and Rumbelle was that the writers decided to bring back Marion because they wanted to add drama for this pairing. I understand that this pairing needed to have drama but bring Marion back was lazy writing because it does cause Robin to look like an asshole since he has a wife who he is not mentally faithful to and string Regina along. Its not fair nor right for both of these women to be treated this way where if either of them had any sense would dump Robin because he does not deserve any of them. Had the writers decided where Robin finds out through Emma that Regina was responsible for Marion's death and he starts to leave her conflicted of his love for her that would have been a smart and clever choice because we then see how Regina's actions directly affect her instead of seeing other characters being somehow involved with her demise with what Tink said before about Regina ruining all of their lives. Also it puts what Robin said to Regina to the test where is it possible to forgive someone for committing autrocious acts even knowing it affected you somehow. This might have made Outlaw Queen probably one of the most fascinating and complex couples in fiction even better than Rumbelle in some ways where the tragedy would have went a step further because they may not have had a future together. Since now Marion is alive it more like waiting for the writers to kill Marion so that way Robin can cry for a day out of respect then he and Regina will be together again as though nothing had happen. Marion coming back just makes the idea of adultery look appealing and it really destroys a character development for Regina that she comes out like a spoiled child who believes deserves a happy ending rather than earning it as Rumpel has because she wanted Marion dead now where I am sure the child would be not be happy when he grows up later on to find out what his "new" mother had done . I honestly wish they never brought back Marion back and did something else because these writers are not going to do something different since their idea of getting rid of competition is killing off the unpopular lover no matter how it pertains to the story and/or character development. 
That is my two cents for the couple so if you like it then that is totally fine but it really does bother me how the Outlaw Queen problem is given a very skewed view based on fan pandering.
