Okay, I know alot of my SFers and Ranchers will strongly disagree with me on this, but I won’t criticize how Rumple or Henry mourns, although I will criticize the writers. I’ve lost three members of my immediate family and each time was complete different. You don’t always go through the stages of grief in order, or a certain time period. Sometimes you skip around, sometimes it’s delayed, and sometimes you regress competely. In real life, you have no idea how you`ll react. In real life, you have to return to work after the funeral. Life goes on much more quickly than you would like it to. And at the end of the day it’s a fiction show about a fictional character.
The thing that perplexes me the most is that darn headstone. If we’re talking realism, that stone wouldn’t even be there for a few months (yes, it takes that long).
