About the argument of "Adam is the Beast" vs "Adam is Gaston"...

I recall the writers saying something about General Lagune being Gaston. He led an army of humans to slay "beasts" in the middle of the night, only to fail due to underestimating the "beasts".

Arryn saying that Adam is Gaston may very well just be her interpretation and opinion on the matter. Her reasoning is that the Beast is redeemed and becomes a man again, while Gaston is blinded by his obsession for Belle and acts monstrously.

But the thing is, the characters don't necessarily live up to their allusion to a T. Cinder alludes to Cinderella, but Cinderella was not a villain, nor did she murder anyone. My interpretation of Adam's allusion to Beast has been that he's a reverse Beast.


 * Belle met the Beast while he was a beast and saw him become a man.


 * Blake met Adam while he was still a man and has seen him become a beast.
