1. When Summer died their father, Taiyang Xiao Long, in grief basically shut down and distant apparently letting it slip to Yang that Summer wasn't her biological mother. After a misadventure when trying to find her mother (Tai wasn't there; just a very young Yang and Ruby) that nearly got them killed Yang raised Ruby as best she could. The Silver eyes can apparently destroy or basically pull a Medusa on Grimm though only them. I love the description of what you described what she would do because that's probably accurate.

2. I'd definitely love and watch something that did that with Hades and Persephone. Yeah, Zeus had some affairs that where consensual but others were he wanted some so he took it then didn't generally care what happened to them given he basically let Hera do what she pleased with them. Well Hades and his brothers apparently were similar but primarily focused in their own domaines though even Zeus rarely messed with Hades, probably out of respect for his oldest brother along with some fear. That said most did treat Hades as an outcast and didn't like him around so the metaphor of him being a geek is rather accurate. Had Hades been more of a dick I'm afraid you are likely right the Greeks would of forgiven him more likely.

3. I might use the Nephilim as if probably fits the story a bit more. Luckily my stories don't sugarcoat the Gods that it has and go "God created us thus we should accept everything" it paints pretty much all as either merely self-righteous, too busy to mess with mortals either way or proudly evil with Anastasia being the only loving one who wants to help. Sir Thomas was basically born in the right era and took advantage of those who no one at the time cared for either due to poverty, heritage or both.

4. I hadn't heard of that comic personally.

5A. For Ichabod I'd say probably be headed to be reference to the Headless Horseman killing him, now the Miller I see tortured to death by having his hands cut off, beaten and then locked away until he starved to death for his lies. I love the idea of the Miller's daughter and Rumpelstiltskin being married as I don't believe I've ever heard that and takes away the one issue I had with the daughter agreeing to give him her son before it was even born. Mila sounds way better that the source material character in my opinion and makes McDonald all the easier to hate. Oh my bad on Red, I think make her the brains then to contrast from what I hear about the original who sounds more unhinged. Could be wrong as I never read the book and don't remember the film the film decently enough to be certain.

5B. Unfortunately he's not appeared in person just as a basically a shadowed figure in a portal about to escape and small flashbacks but arguably yeah he's worse. Zhan Tiri supposedly wanted to destroy the kingdom for no reason. I thing Gothel was more hatable so far but it might change. The king was apparently strict and has been extremely overprotective but at least so far not evil just took a major risk to save his family which I can respect. I'd prefer power as like you said it is petty or even sadistic to let a baby get captured by her.

5C. Yeah kind of like him and it is disturbing to realize those people do exist. I see it as a mix between Gothface (keeping her identity hidden possibly for Afton) and Sweet Tooth (no alternate identity or even caring if caught thinking he could escape in both Black and the 2012 remake probably for Sherman) in the mentality. I picture the protagonist leading them to meet one another and using their egos along with rivalry to have them fight one another while then getting a weapon to kill either like a shotgun.

5D. It kind of follows the traditional slasher to a degree but there is more of a reasoning on why the killer snapped with only one victim who doesn't deserve it. The few who I let borrow it liked it and thought it was fun. A few kills were basically those who abused him and I's say if Chris was in it she'd be an asshole victim. Of what I recall the book does paint both Billy and Chris as abusive and terrible people. On Eli Mills I merely was transferring it upon request, sure you have my approval or re-doing it I just am not sure which way I'll vote. Yeah what I read for Maisie sounded like Pure Good so I don't see any real reason to down vote her.

5E. Yeah I remember that discussion from way back. I might have to rewatch the film one day but it was one of the ones I remember liking and thinking it was played rather smart of why her character was the way she was. Not sure I'd be happy with bad acting if it isn't in an entertaining way but as a person I wouldn't have any issue with her as an individual. If the acting is bad but entertaining however I'd let it slide easy, on if she's possibly become a better person I do see that as an easy possibility as most people can change.
