Jo – I say this with a lot of love and affection….you really need to let go of the ‘evidence’ because it’s not really telling us anything. Until the show starts back up again we know absolutely NOTHING story wise about any photos that we’re seeing (and don’t get me started on the tooly Tumblr spoiler which I just saw at lunch and was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read) so IMO, panicking and losing hope is awfully premature.
THIS times a frillion! Honestly, we get glimpses of the shooting process for only a few scenes per ep, and there are so many scenes in every ep that we know nothing about. We haven’t seen WW filmng many scenes, or even Robin and Regina, and we KNOW that all of them will have a large screen presence in S3B. So how come when MRJ isn’t seen on set for a little bit, it instantly means he’s dead, when it doesn’t mean the same for other characters? I honestly don’t get why people seem to use different rules when it comes to MRJ being on set or not. If we get promo pics of Neal lying in a coffin, then by all means, freak out, but unless and until that happens, there’s no point in jumping to conclusions, because we really don’t actually have any conclusive “evidence” that he’s died at all.
A lot of people are great at putting out volumes of headcannons about how Neal is unimportant, and obviously it must be him that’s dead but some of these are the same people who will say things in chat like “Neal didn’t know about the curse when he left Emma.” Or will insist Emma ignored him at the townline. When people are editing the show in their own memories to quite that extent, it does make me question the speculation and spoilers that get filtered by them too. I know many of them aren’t doing it on purpose out of dislike for the character but simply they WANT and NEED to believe that things are this way because of how much they like Hook. They often admit they watch only for Hook, and that’s not how I think the show is written. I do not think (ABC media aside ) that the writers think of Hook as the main character around which the show revolves.
THIS times a frillion + 1!
Emma has lost Neal three times and twice found him. She’s bound to find him a third time. It’s the way these things usually turn out in epic narratives and fairytales. Neal and Emma’s destinies are entwined; they have been since the beginning when Rumple made her the savior of the curse designed to locate his son. Yes, fate brought them together for a reason, and while that fate kept them apart because of the first curse, it’ll bring them around together in the end. That is what fairytales are all about: fulfilling one’s personal narrative as one strives to achieve a happy ending. It’s been shown quite clearly that Emma and Neal both have the same goal of Tallahassee (family and home); all that remains is them working out how to be together.
Here’s hoping third time will be the charm. Like, a charm that hangs on a keychain kinda charm.
This and a millionth trillionth times more.
I still have faith that this is a huge misdirection and that it will be Hook that dies most likely making the ultimate sacrifice to save Neal, Emma Henry from her BlackBeard or the WWW, thereby redeeming his character in everyone’s eyes and becomes a hero hence Hooks poster “Believe That A Pirate Can Be A Hero
Like, a charm that hangs on a keychain kinda charm.
