Who else wants to see Rumple give Belle some tea in the chipped cup?

MORE THAN I WANT MOST THINGS IN LIFE! *so not exaggerating*
I want him to give her the cup and for her to realize what it means that he's kept it all this time cause my little Rumbelle heart would explode with joy and happiness and all other happy things.

If there's no such scene, thats what fanfiction is for

I thought it would be cute if Belle tells Gold that she didn't kiss him when they reunited because she loves him for who he is and doesn't need him to change.

I think the kiss is being saved for towards the end of the series. Rumpel's going to sacrifice himself for the sake of Belle or Bae and Belle's kiss is going to save his life and turn him back into a normal man. That's my theory anyway.

Sweet Jesus, I hope you're right!

I also would be happy with someone controlling Rumpel with the dagger, and Belle kissing him amongst an epic scene and converting him again.

And after he goes "You saved me ... again" <3

A couple of things to consider:
Remembering that the BF siad to Bae that it was Rumpel's love for him that kept some part of him human. So would the same apply for Belle. If he makes room in his heart to love her will it help him retain more of his humanness? What if we add a grandchild at some point? All these loving relationships throughout the seasons may be what keeps him from fully becoming the Dark One whose soul is consumed.

I also wonder if the deal of Belle saying she would stay with Rumple forever in Skin Deep will be revisited at all, although he released her when he sent her away, I suppose.

I think there will be some amends that need to be made to Belle's father, who obviously had no idea what he was talking about when Gold beat him in Skin Deep. Does Rumple do amends?

Like many of you, didn't expect a full reunion like they gave us. Expected his discovery of Belle to be a cliffhanger.

I will say when Belle called his name, he seemed tentative and uncertain as to what she might say or do as he turned around. I think when she said she loved him he seemed relieved and able to let his guard down enough to return an I love you he had been longing to say for many years.

I agree.

Also, I just got home and logged onto my tumblr and there's this interesting post, analyzing the first scene from Skin Deep. Anti-Rumbelle fans argue that what Belle felt towards Rumpel was Stolkholm Syndrome, but looking at these caps, don't indicate that at all.

Although we haven't seen any of it yet and so can only speculate, I 'm thinking the new magic isn't a curse, and therefore the true-love's-kiss antidote doesn't apply--in which case Rumple can kiss freely without losing his magic. At least, I'm sure hoping that's the case. Series end is an awfully long time for us Rumbellers to wait
