    There’s a very easy answer to why Robin isn’t aged up: the writers don’t want him to be because they need to “finish” OutlawQueen more satisfactorily than the way they did in 5B and in order to do that you can’t have 30ish year old Regina with 60ish old Robin because that’s, in their eyes, unsexy.

    Pretty much.  And well, there’s always the sleeping curse narrative if they need it.

    Yes I also think its grown up Roland.. Wouldnt he be the same age, or like a few years older then Emma?

    He should be about three years older than Emma, because of Belle and whatnot.

    Regina should be in her 70s, if she was 46, when she cast the Curse, assuming she’s 18 years older than Snow, and Snow was 28, when the Curse was cast (as on Keb’s timeline, the last I saw it). I’m assuming Robin is about ten years younger than her and had Roland at 33. Of course, present-day stuff gets weird (due to lack of sufficient time skips over long breaks), but if it were 2016, Roland would be 36 by my estimate, the same age I estimate Robin to be during the Curse.

    Of course, this is an AU where Dopey died, instead of Stealthy, so…

    Why would Regina be 18 years older then Snow? I would say she is five years older then Snow, maybe ten at the very most.

    yeah I was gonna say 8-10. When Snow met Regina she was about 8-10 and Regina was right around 18.

    Snow confirmed onscreen she was 10 during the whole Stable Boy incident in the episode “Shattered Sight”.

    You mean when she swung the sword at Regina in the sheriff’s station? That was done for comedic effect, so i am not really taking that as proof of anything. Regardless, she was not 18 years older, in my opinion.

    I agree…Regina was more than likely 18. Snow was like 22-24 when she went on the run and 28 when the curse was cast, so Regina cast the curse at 36. And it’s been three to four years since the curse was broken, so Regina should be pushing 40-41 right about now.

    As for Robin Hood not aging up….I think somehow, David’s wish for the Evil Queen to get exactly what she deserved probably altered the timeline of the EQ’s Wish Realm, and since they’re both the EQ, Regina probably got the living breathing Robin Hood whose the same age she remembers him being, hence how she got what she deserved. But of course “be careful what you wish for” will be that it’s not the same “heart of gold” Robin, instead one of a darker scale which could be the result of the wish being twisted because if the Evil Queen brought Robin Hood back, he’d be the much darker version he told her about.

    -Maybe WWW Robin and/or EQ was in NL or Land of Untold Stories for a while in this new WWW story, and that is why neither of them aged. For example, maybe EQ was banished to NL or LUS.

    -EQ can still be banished within Fairy Tale Land but might like to glamour herself as looking younger.

    I still have no theories on Granny, except that maybe wolf=longevity? Not currently cannon, though.

    I think it is a real shame that WWW Robin will only be around for a few episodes.
    Maybe Regina will send him though a portal somehow to be with Roland, and doesn’t go with him herself because she needs to sort out the Emma and Snowing problems first (Oh, and Henry of course).
