Exactly. And he was definitely “comforting” her if that’s what you call it today. Sorry, but I can’t imagine anyone wearing that kind of night gown and parading around in it without a robe like Belle did in Croc if one’s significant other hasn’t seen them wearing less…
See I think anything before 310 was left vague for fan interpretation. For me, Rumple would have hesitated greatly before sleeping with Belle after the curse lifted. Sometimes he seems like an old fashioned kind of guy. We’d want to make sure they were in a good place relationship wise before they took it to the next level, even if they had been apart for 30 years.
I agree that it was left open to fan interpretation, which is why Jane said that whether they’d “done it” (not her words) or not was not established as canon. Personally, that answer always annoyed me; why not make it clear one way or the other? In any case, I don’t think there’s a right or wrong answer. I could see them “sleeping together” in THAT way around the Croc time, except to me they made it clear that they weren’t, that Gold was in bed simply to comfort Belle (because then why else would he basically be fully dressed). As such, although I can easily imagine them wanting to make love immediately upon the curse breaking, I’m guessing they just chose to be all snuggly and kissy, lol. I love how comfortable Belle is walking around in that nighty, lol, but that doesn’t surprise me; let’s face it, she was pretty darn forward back in FTL, far more forward than women were back then, and my head canon is that she always fantasized about him seeing her like that (and vice versa, lol).
I would have thought that they would have made love for sure by the time of the Outsider, if not that night he called her to the shop than for sure after the Jolly Roger scene, before the car scene, but since Emilie didn’t think (as of a few months ago) that they had “done it (I wonder how often she and Bobby have talked about this), I’m going with the supposition that these two were taking it REALLY slowly, lol. Given how much they need to touch each other, it’s amazing to me if they WERE able to keep themselves from jumping into bed, lol.
Even though Gold was a VERY modern man in FTL days (he encouraged Belle’s intelligence, curiosity, desire for adventure, love of learning, etc… – and she a modern woman, which to me shows how well they were matched), I agree that he does have this old-fashioned, gentlemanly side to him when it comes to romance. IMO, he truly LOVES being in love and he shows that in so many ways, especially every day, in how he treats Belle: with respect and with kindness. He shows how much he loves her in just loving her, needing her, touching her. When he gets her a gift, it’s not some boring candy and flowers that could be anyone’s gift to anyone, it’s a library. He gifted her keys to a new life, to adventure (she couldn’t leave thanks to the memory curse, but she could travel the world via books)…..he knows her SO well.
LOL the funny thing with these two in bed is that I really think they could do it every day for the rest of their lives and NEVER get bored. Not only do they have that insane love and passion for each other, but you just sense that they actually LOVE making love and/or having sex (big difference). I can see them at times going slow, being tender, and at others just being animals because they can’t help themselves!
[adrotate group="5"]If RumBellers wrote the show, RumBelle would be forever in a state of undress, caught between rounds of lovemaking.
All magic comes with a price!

Yup.
Also, I think we have to consider Rumple’s fear which is that someday Belle would leave him. That’s what happens to him, people leave. They walk out and abandon him. Jumping into bed (in a no sleeping way) with Belle would be painful for him because he has never fully accepted (until recently) that she wasn’t going anywhere. She might say she’s going to stay but he’s been burnt before. It’s hard for him (so so so so hard) to accept that someone wants him.

Saw this confession this morning:
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Yes, it’s definitely up to interpretation and I actually really don’t care whether they have or haven’t done the deed and since we’ll never get a “Rumbelle Bedroom Special” fans can only speculate and that’s okay. However, I – and probably most Rumbellers – would appreciate if they showed more “emotionally intimate” moments on screen, if you know what I mean. It doesn’t have to be a big scene like in the library in Crocodile but is a small one now and then (and maybe not only every 5-10 episodes) like in Gold’s shop in The New Neverland really too much to ask?

Yes! (and the scene must last longer than 1 min)
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Discussions about Rumbelle in the Rumbelle thread…yippee!!!!!!!
I would look askance at both Bobby and Emilie if either come out in an interview now and say the don’t think Rumbelle has been intimate. After the way she pined and couldn’t eat for the week or so he was gone, how she held onto him with her “I’m never letting you go again” grip, and then the whole dressing and tie-adjusting. They totally did it (to borrow Screwball’s phrasing).
Screwball’s essay about the difference between Snowing and Rumbelle and sexy time for this episode is well worth the read if you haven’t.

"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I don’t know if they actually did the deed in “The Crocodile” but they were definitely sharing a bed. Belle woke up and immediately looked next to her expecting to see him. There was an indent in the pillow in his spot. That was a master bed, not a guest bed, and the same one we see Rumple wake up in at the beginning of “Lacey.” He got dressed because he woke up early and didn’t intend to go back to bed.
But yeah, they totally did it in “The New Neverland!” 🙂

Yes, all true…Even though I had serious issues with how little Belle was used in NL, the small amount of Rumbelle we got was still staggeringly important because of Gold’s epiphany. He not only realized how badly he wanted to be with her and have a future (not that he didn’t want it before, but now he was going to fight for his own survival so he could have this), but he realized truly that Belle would never leave him. I think he knew for sure in the Outsider that she truly loved him and stopped questioning WHY after that (he said in the phone call scene that she “really really loved” him), but it was in Ariel, in NL, that Gold stopped thinking of Belle has potentially leaving him.
I saw that confession………gorgeous. Belle seeing the man that Rumple truly was, that he wanted to be again but had no hope (before her) of being, touched my heart because it touched his. He needed desperately to believe that someone actually cared for him for who he was, that he was worthy of being loved, that he was not a beast. I think the reason he was so upset when Gaston interrupted was because Belle was telling him that he wasn’t a monster, just a man, and he wanted that conversastion to continue. His heart and soul needed this nourishment that Belle was providing. In the forest, in Lacey, her hug was the first genuine affection and touch he’d had in centuries (Cora, IMO, was different; however sexual they were, she was not a warm or caring person).
What I feel also that Rumple gave back to Belle was a sense of understanding and appreciating who she was: a woman who didn’t just want to be a wife and live an ordinary life. He respected and admired her intelligence, spirit, bravery, sense of adventure, compassion, kindness, etc… He wanted her to, ultimately, live her life as she needed to live it – even if that was without him.

I would LOVE that as a DVD featurett, lol – Rumbelle Bedroom Special, lol.
I agree with this except I’ll add that I’m tired of all of their scenes taking place in Gold’s shop. The Pink House was sold and they don’t have a set for Gold’s shop built….They really need to, frankly. The shop is not the place for intimate moments; I want to see some domestic Rumbelle, like we get with Snowing. The idea that they would have “done it” in the shop (both pre and post tie scene) is silly because really? In that small bed? In a cold, business like setting (I know it’s in the back, but still)? Why would they NOT go to his house, to their home, to a big, comfy bed?
Anyway, I feel like Adam and Eddy don’t care about Rumbelle, so we get the bare minimum. Their reunions are aborted, squeezed in and (even though beautifully done) rushed; I can’t stand being told by people on Tumblr that fans who want more for Rumbelle are wrong and ungrateful. Yeah, I get that it’s Adam and Eddy’s show, but Rumbelle is by far the most popular ship and it’s just GORGEOUS, it’s an exquisitely beautiful love story (and Bobby/Emilie have RARE chemistry). How do you not take advantage of this?
LOL I don’t think the issue of Rumbelle being intimate will come up anymore because ONCE might as well have flashed a neon sign saying they did it – and MORE than once……a LOT.
I read that essay (the Rumbelle stuff) again last night, lol – hilarious and true!

Okay, dummy me was looking for the as-yet-to-be-written review of “Going Home”. *shakes head*
So they can’t film at the Pink house anymore? They better get a set built if they’re going back to Storybrooke! I need Domestic!Rumbelle in that house. I’ve read too many fanfics for it not to happen. 😛
I can understand them being so overcome that they just decide to stay at the shop since we know it has a bed and in old shops like this (I work in a building that was an old shop) there is usually an apartment upstairs, much like the library has. But really, the house has to make a reappearance. Although it would be hilarious to see Rumple do a walk-of-shame to his shop from the library and get caught by Granny with a sassy comment on the situation. 😆
