Reply To: How did the curse work

Yes, I’m *really* hoping for more development for Belle too! I want to see more of her FTL past and I want them to really delve into her head about how all the terrible things that have happened to her and how she feels about them. Poor girl should need therapy!

I’m looking forward to more Belle development. I don’t think Belle will seek therapy. She doesn’t seem like the type who would want to dwell on the bad things that have happened to her. She’s not so much bottling it up, more just not thinking about it. I can see her sharing things like that with Rumple, and him with her, because that’s a little trust thing between the two, but I don’t see either of them wanting to include other people in their private problems. Belle only told Ruby that she had been a “kept” woman for the last 28 years whereas she told Rumple she’d been in the asylum. Rumple only went to Archie in season 1 when he thought August was Bae because at the time he literally had no one else to talk to.
