I do agree TheDarkOne, that there is something about the theory that Bae is the father that just rings true. Because it is so neat and adds the connection. And then makes Henry the one who can sort of bring these characters together, It is like the black and white of it all. Like the good guys daughter and the bad guys son. The Romeo and Juliet of it all. That sort of very normal plot form going on there. I think for me though i would rather Bae know who Emma is somehow, maybe he is in contact with the Blue Fairy, i have no idea, but just have him meeting Emma not be an accident. The falling in love or whatever happened between them could be something that was unexpected, but maybe have them meeting be something that happened on purpose. And maybe if the father is Bae and he doesn’t know Emma, that somehow someone else could know and contrived for them to meet. I think that when it comes down to it i don’t quite like that their meeting would just be completely accidental.
And maybe they could say Emma caused it. Like there was sort of the suggesting that when Emma wished on the blue star candle that she didn’t have to be alone on her birthday that somehow that could have caused Henry to come to her. Maybe the magic of that moment caused the lead up. I would be fine with this. I am not sure the writers are that thoughtful though.
I’d also like for there to a more solid reason for why Bae and Emma met. I’ve always held the theory that the Blue Fairy had been keeping tabs on Baelfire after she sent him to our world. Maybe she felt obligated to take care of him and became his fairy god-mother. Maybe she told him about Emma’s existance. If Baelfire was able to contact Fairytale land, then I wouldn’t be too surprised if Baelfire found out about Emma’s existence. He’s the reason why the curse exists, so I would think that he would want to learn more about the girl who would break that curse.
But once again, I’m just pulling theories out of thin air at this point.
