Fanlore:Featured Article Archives/2021: Week 39
Alice Jones is a recurring character in the seventh season of Once Upon A Time, and is loosely based on the titular character of the Alice in Wonderland books. She also inhabits the role of other characters through allegory/coding, most notably Rapunzel.
Despite her debut in the controversial and soft-rebooted final season of the show, her reception was largely positive amongst those who watched it, with emphasis on her relatability and the representation she provided. The portrayal of a sapphic woman with mental illness, even one whose health issues are left somewhat ambiguous, was deemed much needed for both the show and the wider fandom world.
Her status as something of a S7 fan favourite is further fueled by her relationships, particularly with her papa—the Wishverse version of Killian Jones—and her canon love interest, Robin Mills. Known as KnightRook (KR) and Curious Archer (CA) respectively, both relationships have also been widely praised by OUAT fans who watched the final season.
Fanworks featuring Alice range in tropes and genres, though fluff is fairly common, especially within CA works. Angst is often present in KnightRook due to the circumstances placed upon them, as well as general works taking place during her time in the tower.
