From Tumblr
[adrotate group="5"]"That’s how you know you’ve really got a home. When you leave it, there’s this feeling that you can’t shake. You just miss it." Neal Cassidy
From Tumblr Awwwwwwwwwwwwww. That’s adorable!
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love" From Tumblr That is SO full of win!!!! Tumblr has been really great lately with SF stuff! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
*wishes Tumblr wasn’t blocked at work so she could see the other pretty things* 🙁
#MoreBOOMLessGloomI read this on Tumblr and found it amusing:
“Dead is dead, unless you’re a Stilskin boy.”
All three generations of father, son and grandson have “died” only to return (and Rumple will survive). In fact, Henry has “died” twice now. I think all 3 are safe from the true death.

Dead is dead, unless you’re a Stilskin boy.
I saw that earlier. 🙂
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"What I find bothersome is how many SF ers want Hook to die or sail off into the sunset never to be seen again, even before this spoiler made its debut.
The only reason I want Hook gone is because I don’t like S3 Hook. I want S2 Hook back. Or I want him to sail out into the sea because that’s what makes him happy. He’s a sailor, he’s a pirate. He’s meant for the seas.. not to run around in Storybrooke. Or I want him to have a heroic death. The hero who became a villain who became a hero. Or I want Colin to leave OUAT and go off to a Neverland spin off where it’s 13 episodes of just Neverland with Tink and Wendy and Pan and Smee and Bae and Felix. That’s why I would want Hook gone. I want Hook gone for reasons that have nothing to do with Emma or Neal.

YOU CAME BACK!!!!!
(we keep posting all your things) (never leave again)
Beautiful SFer stuff!! I heart my swanfireFamily!
Never fear. This isn’t over. He’ll see them both again.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"So I know I can say this here but I really need it to NOT be Neal. Really. I need it to not be the kind sweet kid who became a heroic man who only wanted for the love of his life to find her way home. I really need to believe that A and E aren’t going to end Neal’s already horribly tragic story by killing him. If they want CS to be endgame, I’ll deal because it’s what Emma wants. But I need to know that they aren’t going to kill Neal and write him off just because it wasn’t meant to be with Emma. He’s Rumple’s happy ending. He’s part of Henry’s happy ending.*sigh*
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I’m going to copy and paste what I wrote on my Tumblr about certain things. Is there a rule about cursing? Because I kinda do that often.
I’m not worried because I’m looking at this from a story-standpoint. Not from what is popular or not in the online fandom.
I hope people realize that while the creators and cast truly appreciate their fans and appreciate that we get so into it… we’re the minority. The online community? We’re the minority. Millions of people watch this show. Only thousands are online talking about it.
So yes, maybe Neal isn’t popular in the online community. So what? That isn’t going to change their minds on how they want their story to go. Let’s take a couple things into account, ok?
Neal is an original character. There are only three truly original characters that this show gives a **** about. Emma, Neal, and Henry. Because he’s an original character, one of very few, they’re going to want to actually tell his story. His story is far from over.
This show is also about hope and it’s not even close to debating that Neal has had a really crappy life thus far. He’s had pockets of happiness but other than that? He’s had a rough life. Living on the streets in multiple time periods and realms. Losing everyone he loves. Captive for years. Alone. And his ending in season 3 is going to be death? What sort of message is that? I mean… If we were in season 6 or something, I might be worried. But we’re in season 3. By season 3’s end he’ll be on the show for just a season and a half. We know so much about his character but they haven’t explored it. It’s too early for him to die.
Speaking of death, he just did. Well, the characters thought he died. The writers just explored the emotional impact of Neal’s death earlier this season. They spent 7 episodes on it. And within the same season they’re going to do it again? I don’t think so. I highly, highly doubt that. Again, if this was season 5 or 6 I might be worried but they’re not going to ‘kill’ him twice in one season. It’s redundant.
His relationships with both Emma and Henry are on the fritz and haven’t been even close to being explored. You can’t replace what Neal is to either Emma or Henry. You either explore those relationships with Neal or not at all. Emma loves the guy but she’s scared and not ready. She hasn’t come to terms with stuff. She hasn’t forgiven or accepted or whatever it is she needs to do to move past those feelings she’s been locking away for 12 years. She said it would be easier if he was dead… and it would be easier because then she wouldn’t have to deal with it. But I believe in character development and want her to deal with it. And the only way she can deal with it is if Neal is alive. Henry has a father. No matter who comes into Emma or Regina’s life, they will never replace what Neal is to Henry. His father. His actual biological father that would have been there for him the moment he was born had he known about him. Neal didn’t hesitate one moment in being there for Henry and we’ve hardly explored that relationship. There’s more to tell there. And then there’s Rumple.. while they hugged and it was adorable, I don’t think 300 years of feeling abandoned is going to go away just like that. They’ve made a really good first step but they have a long way to go.
Seriously, why do people think it’s Neal that’s going to die? Because the stuck-up, self-righteous, and annoying online fandom doesn’t like him?
Who gives two hoots about the online fandom?
I’ll eat crow if it’s Neal.
