I didn’t care much for Robin, especially the 4B stuff that just made me shudder whenever I gave more than a passing thought to his storyline.
But now I am shuddering about his storyline for different reasons, and even tearing up….
People have mentioned how Robin is not going to get an happy afterlife, no peaceful heaven-like place like Cora, Neal, etc, have gotten.
That was bad enough… And then I thought about the people that will die after him, and never see him again. When Regina dies, she won’t have a happy reunion with him. Same the Merry Men, Roland, and Robin Junior. Marion, who is there, will see shared associates join her at some point, and find out Robin is never coming.
We can imagine Neal being reunited with *most* of his friends and family some day (sadly not his mother, and I guess depends on where his father ends up). But Robin, no, that has, by all appearances, taken away. No happy ending *ever* not even in the afterlife. And the happy afterlife for all his loved-ones and friends, will be a less happier for it too. Hope, phhhhht.
