heart breaking
Just a little something that’s been in my head since “Quiet Minds”. And don’t ask me to make sense of it or give any major details because I won’t have it lol.
For me and I know a lot of other people that episode was so OOC for Emma (and everyone else but that’s another story). Since when does Emma have the confidence in her own magical abilities to separate two souls/beings whatever it was?! But she was like “yeah, okay I got this”. Um no! I think Rumple just used her somehow, like a magical tool to separate himself from Neal. Rumple is the dark one. I don’t believe for a second that he couldn’t have wrangled the two minds long enough to come up with some type of plan. Not saying it was easy for him and that’s why he needed to separate from Neal but in my head canon, Rumple and Neal worked out a way (very complicated, very rumple-esc) to defeat Zelena and Neal’s “death” was just part of the plan. And I kept watching the part when Rumple is holding Neal’s hand right before he dies and I just keep thinking he pricked him with a sleeping curse. I can’t get it out of my head. Maybe Rumple felt Emma needed to lose Neal to find the proper motivation for her to defeat Zelena. She is the savior after all.
What’s the plan? Idk
Where’d he get the sleeping potion? Idk
Like I said just something that’s been in my head since I saw the episode.
