ParticipantIs there something wrong with my Firefox…? I can’t seem to find the spoiler tag option. Or do I literally just tag it spoilers? What is the code for this?

ParticipantWell, that “have” was from his perspective, and it’s obvious that from his perspective having Emma love him back would be his happy ending right now. (Never mind that a season ago it was murdering Rumple.)
But it does leave me wondering how the writers, having made this his ONE goal, might get him out of that if Emma doesn’t choose him. Does he get to become a mirror like Sidney? (We have seen a few cases of unrequited love…so it IS a thing in this universe.)

ParticipantIt feels like nothing really matters anymore
When you’re gone
I can’t breathe
And I know you never meant to make me feel this way
This can’t be happening[…]
So many questions so much on my mind
So many answers I can’t find
I wish I could turn back the time
I want toAvril Lavigne, Everybody Hurts
Feels.

I have no idea who said this originally, but it is one of those quotations I found on a friend’s FB page.
Never chase love, affection or attention. If it isn’t given freely by another person, it isn’t worth having.
It also reminds me of what Will said to Anastasia when Jafar had changed the laws of magic to make her think she loved Jafar. What Ana felt was forced upon her by Jafar, but it was a pale imitation of the real love that Ana and Will had for one anther:
Will: I know what you feel for Jafar seems real to you.
Ana: It is real!
Will: It’s a trick! A one-sided mind game. You had real love once, and you know it’s not that simple.
Ana: It can be.
Will: Love is messy. It means arguing and making up and laughing and crying and struggling. And sometimes, it doesn’t seem worth it, but it is. In the end, when you’re in love, no matter what happens, you forgive each other. I forgive you, Ana, for what you did to me, because I love you. And if there’s any part of you that has a shred of love left for me, then please, help us.
Ana: Really lovely words, but that’s all they are. I know what I feel!
Will: What you feel is a curse! Jafar did this to you.
Ana: If what I feel isn’t love, then what is?
Will: This [reaches through a magic triangular barrier and gives her True Love’s Kiss, breaking her enchantment]Ana and Will’s love was the real thing because it had been freely given. They forgave one another despite the pain they’d been through. Will’s speech about what real love is so beautiful. It gives me hope that the writers do in fact know the difference between forced loved and love freely given.
Interesting note: the barrier in which Will has been imprisoned looks like the triangle that was imprinted upon Neal’s hand.
From OUAT in WL (1×13):
OUAT (3×15) The mark imprinted on Baelfire‘s hand is a triangle, an alchemy symbol which symbolizes fire.
The triangle symbol was very evident in 3×20 at the meeting of the witches of Oz (aka the “heart of Oz”):
On the stone pillar:
I’m also going to throw something else out there, which may or may not have any relevance to 3×21. In 3×15, Neal said to Lumiere:
“Unless you want to spend the rest of eternity under a snow drift, you’d better start talking.”
“Snow Drifts” is the title of 3×21. I have no idea what it means, if anything, but it seemed kind of relevant to this episode title.

ParticipantMy new crack theory is that they’ll get back to SB in the present and there will be no Henry and with Rumple…teenage Baelfire. Somehow Rumple messed with the time stream to get his kid back earlier–now that would be showing an ACTUAL repercussion of Neal’s death.:

KeymasterLove is messy. It means arguing and making up and laughing and crying and struggling. And sometimes, it doesn’t seem worth it, but it is. In the end, when you’re in love, no matter what happens, you forgive each other. I forgive you, Ana, for what you did to me, because I love you.
One of my very favorite quotes in either series. It was exactly what was supposed to happen between Emma and Neal

I don’t even know how I would feel about that.

that would just be crazy insane. I would expect Emma to do a Zelena and try to open the timetravel portal again
By the way, did anyone notice how Regina, a newly reformed villain is behaving very typically like all newly reformed villains. they preach they sit on a high horse of righteousness expect everyone to follow suit,
I can see regina being this way next season. she was already acting “holier than thou” towards Zelena and towards Rumpelstiltskin

Participant@ouat I thought the same thing dear, the same thing? Rumple saved his boy at the expense of Emma’s own :/
@RG my sentiments exactly. :/

ParticipantABC cancelled Trophy Wife today and Nashville is still up in the air (the rest of my fave shows are all safe for another season) while OUAT, which has turned to utter crap, was renewed yesterday so I’m not in the best of moods today. I don’t think the two trolls have any clue how upset they’ve made fans with some of their comments lately and I’m now hoping the finale ratings are so far in the basement that they’re in negative numbers. *rages* >:(
I won’t be around quite as much this weekend either due to real life stuff (I miss you guys all ready!) but I’m actually kind of glad for that in a way because these fun activities will be greatly needed distractions for me to get through that atrocious finale on Sunday. I’m now EXTREMELY happy that I won’t be home to watch it live because one, I think it’s going to suck, and two, I’m anxious to see the Revenge finale and if OUAT works up my anger too much, I won’t be able to pay enough attention to the drama in the Hamptons and quite frankly, even Revenge at it’s very worst is better than OUAT right now. 😮
