    But does’t that beg the question can you leave Rumbelle alone and have Rumple fulfill his main role which is to fill in as a villain when the arc villain isn’t enough? Even if Belle’s not there just the idea that Rumple is gonna black hat it up in S7 would put quite a damper on Rumbelle, no?

    I wish they would either fully redeem him and make him a force of good or make him the main big bad to close out the show. I’m getting sick of him partnering up with the latest villain who strolls into town. Rumple is incredibly powerful. Who better to have as the final villain?

    And the finale seemed to suggest that he was the final villain if the was the “Bad” to the good who made right choices. Except now we have another season with showrunners who are apparently conducting business as usual given some spoilers which is ultimately going to undo whatever Rumple just achieved.

    ) Rumple without Neal lacks an orienting axis of motivation. Gideon does not substitute for Neal effectively. Belle by definition cannot.

    Agree completely it was what made Rumple sympathetic to begin with.  A father who made a huge mistake trying to fix it and himself.  Can you imagine the story lines we could have had if they hadn’t killed off Neal.  The writers could have still had Rumple fighting his darkness but with another motivation to win back his son’s love. You could have had Neal become the dark one instead of Emma which would have had Rumple trying to save his son from the same fate as himself or even had Emma become the dark one and Neal dealing with the fact that now his son’s mother is the dark one which is a parallel to himself.

    I expect Rumple to be used in a similar fashion in season 7 (the writers just need to leave RumBelle alone).

    Yeah this is what I am afraid of, I am not sure how they are going to keep Rumbelle with Rumple being dark one Rumple I mean how many times can they twist it to be about Belle and Gideon and still work.  Hopefully one more time of Rumple doing what is best for his family by outwitting or teaming up with the current bad.  I hope they just leave Rumbelle alone and I will use my imagination to fix their relationship how I think it should have been done.
