Does Henry have magic?

Something else to consider, Regina raised Henry since he was a baby. If Henry started making his favorite toys float while he was in his crib, I think that’s something Regina would have mentioned to him. So I actually believe Regina when she says that he’s not magical.

But there was no magic in Storybrooke when Henry was a baby, so there was no way Regina could’ve noticed the signs. Regina herself couldn’t even perform magic before Rumple dumped a bottle of true love potion in the well at the end of S1. Also, Henry hasn’t been living with Regina under the same roof since very early S2. She offered to teach Henry magic in S2, which must mean she at least thinks Henry is capable of it, even if he hasn’t shown an “early spark” the way say Zelena did.

Regina made magic from magic before the curse was broken. Remember the obnoxiously big apple turnover that only required one bite to put Henry into a coma?

Honestly, I don’t think Henry has magic.

Yeah, but that seemed like a very rare, isolated event to me. On the whole, Regina did not perform magic during the 28 years the curse was in place because there was no atmospheric magic in A Land Without Magic until Rumple brought it to SB.

Honestly, I don’t think Henry has magic.

That’s fine. Everyone can believe as she likes. I was just putting forward my own musings on the matter.

The apple came from the hat which required a magical trinket, not Regina herself making magic though. The hat on its own didn’t work–it needed “fuel” in the form of the ring. But Regina herself couldn’t do anything.

Since “magic is about emotion”, I wonder if it takes an emotionally stressful situation to kickstart any magic someone may have.

For example, Emma’s magic started when she saved Snow’s life from Cora.
Zelena’s magic started when she was abandoned as a baby.
Regina’s magic when she got angry with Cora and pushed her through the mirror.

All magic comes with a price!

And Ingrid’s magic manifested when she was younger, when her sisters were under duress.

And all of them were living in lands WITH magic–SB was a bubble sans magic until 122.

I think it’s up in the air right now and the one thing I definitely don’t think was that we got answer last night. Regina doesn’t know if Henry does, but Rumple has suspicions and the kid still has the Heart of the Truest Believer.

For me it was always clear that Henry has magic. How can he be not. When magic is calling for him since the day he was born.

1.) The creation of the light magic and dark magic of a powerful curse. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnyOaYGppRA

2.) The birth. All the light things that happend. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zokxSr_N4po

3.) The book that found him to give him hope and let him safe the town. Rescue both of his mothers and helping to get the memory back and finding his father. For me always Henry was the real saviour, not Emma, cause he believed in her and only his kisses broke BOTH curses:

4.)  His greatgrandfathr who had a piture of him 200 years before he was born and needed his heart only to live longer. The heart of the truest believer. I can’t beleve that the heart is so powerful as just a item for a spell, but then the owner of this very heart has none magic at all. This is not logical for me.

5.)  Rumple teached Cora that Magic comes from Emotions. I think after all what he been through. He lived 10 years in a town that was not aging with one exception, himself. His mother is evil, his other mother has give him away. He didn’t know his father very long time before he died. Family members try to kill each other or him and his best friends are books and comics.

6.) His lineage is quite powerful too.

So I think he has everything he needs to do magic. I think it can even go deeper. I think he can be a balance of magic, where it will not be good or bad magic anymore, because evil or good, it is never that simple.  He will be the greatest of all, the pure Magician.

 

If sou say nope to all that. It is totally OK, cause until now nothing is sure. It is just my opinion for Henry and Magic.

I believe he will eventually have magic, but it’s different for everyone (as we’ve seen). Zelena’s magic was powerful and manifested in infancy, but Regina (who now considers herself one of the most powerful practitioners of magic, and reasonably so) never showed any magic until the day she used it to push her mother through the mirror–when she was around 18 or so.

Henry’s spent maybe a couple of months in realms with actual magic available to him. He was able to make a stick into a sword by believing in Neverland (that may or may not be HIS magic…or related to his heart). Regina once offered to teach him magic, so I’m a little confused by her suggestion that he doesn’t have magic now. It may well be that he does, or will, and it just hasn’t manifested, or requires some training first as Regina’s did. Or a really extreme event the way Emma’s initially did. (She also spent most of her life in a land without magic, though, so it’s hard to say how the timing matters.)

I think the only real answer here is to wait and see, but given his family…I’m pretty sure there’s a good chance.
