Why didn’t the Blue Fairy go with Baelfire after their little chat and explain to Rumpel the solution she offered Baelfire and then leave them to dicuss it? Instead she went behind Rumpel’s back and gave his child an extreme choice. Baelfire was desperate and the Blue Fairy kind of took advantage of that because getting rid of the dark one would be beneficial to her. She likes to make out she’s all goodness and light but I don’t think she is.
EXACTLY. If someone gave my child something like that without asking me I would be ticked off at them, just like he was! The best analogy I can make is giving a kid a plane/bus/train ticket across the country. Sure, maybe it’s for him AND his dad but you can’t REALLY know what the kid will do with that ticket. She is the adult and she should’ve known to make the deal with another adult–Bae’s guardian, not Bae himself. The deal was definitely made behind his back and if not for her INTERFERENCE Bae would still be there. That’s a fact.
It would all be different if Bae was in trouble and he needed protection from or specifically to get away from his father but that’s not what was needed or what anyone wanted that bean for.
The BF seemed like she was willing to help Rumple at first. But then he got mad and she insulted him and he got madder so she left. Well, fine. Maybe I would’ve left too. But I wouldn’t have washed my hands of the whole situation like she did. She could’ve told people what he was threatening/planning to do and asked for help in finding a different way for him to get to Bae or at least in stopping him from making that curse.
Maybe I wouldn’t be so frustrated with her if she would come right out and say that she’s neutral. But she’s supposedly good and people trust her! She’s MOTHER SUPERIOR in SB, for goodness sake! So I hate how she acts! She’s a bad fairy godmother! She should be better than this. Separating sons and fathers, parents and daughter, and lovers too, ALL OVER THE PLACE!!!
Seriously, she’s got quite a rap sheet:
- Separated Rumple and Baelfire
- Separated Nova and Grumpy
- Separated Geppetto and Pinnochio
- Separated Emma and parents (Snow/Charming)
She only purposefully separated Nova and Grumpy. She hadn’t planned to separate the others. Yet that’s what keeps happening! She could’ve avoided separating any of them if she’d acted differently…
