@ sage of earth… I really like your theory that Neal is the one who gave her hope. without him saying that maybe Gold is not dead she wouldn’t think of that possibility…
@keb, youre right. it doesn’t have to be legal… I liked her as the librarian, and was disappointed when Henry went get a book, but I prefer that she takes care of his shop, because it gives off such sad rumbelle feels…..
I can see what they are trying to do here… the parallel of how Rumpelstiltskin told Charming “she died” and she tells Zelena “he died” but I think this is not that good a parallel because when she died he loved her dearly but they didn’t know each other the way they do now.
the relationship between them is so different. the pain she feels is so much more enormous than the pain he felt when he thought she died…
plus she “saw” him die and he saved her life in the process and oh the feels are so much stronger this time, that when she says that he died… it’s doesn’t really parallel at all…
