Glad Emma didn’t punch him in the face then! If her touch restores magic in people temporarily or fully we would have a terrible battle on our hands. Keep your hands / fists to yourself Emma!

is agenda of revenge against his enemies is complete, and he has his son by his side.
And therein lies the true problem for Gold. I doubt Bae (and Belle) will stay by his side as long as he is driven by revenge. I don’t see a way for Gold to have his cake and eat it too, and although I might be in the minority with this, I really don’t want to. After all, “Love is sacrifice.” If he had both it would be Belle and Bae who were sacrificing their morals to be with him.
I’m in total agreement with you Fax Pax.
My feeling is that Emma is able to allow the flow of magic rather than ‘being’ magic- at least I hope that’s the case, it seems those possessing to much magic end up corrupted by it in the end- save the fairies & I feel that is because they can only use magic via their wands & fairy dust, so it isn’t as consuming or lingering as it is to those who have it with-in themselves.
The way I see it, there was magic everywhere in FTL (Bae said as much in his conversation with BF) and that’s why it was easy for some people to use it–they could tune into it like listening to a radio. I think that because the magic was brought by the same potion that gave Emma the magic needed to break the curse, I think she is the only one who can tune into the right frequency (like being the only radio that picks up AM stations), but when she touches people it adjust their dial for a little while, if that makes any since.
I must say, I was worried about how MRJ is going to play Bae (assuming of course, that it is Bae) so i started watching terriers. He’s a really good actor and i’m really excited to see him bump heads with Rumple and see how much chemistry he has with Emma (i hope a lot–i’m a shameless swanfire fan).

It’s my opinion that Mr. Gold does not have his powers back, that is why he does not look like the Rumple of old, and that is why he can kiss Belle and not lose his powers (since he does not have powers). He, like anyone, can use magically objects, like the wraith medallion and the Dark One’s dagger, but he does not “have” magic in him. I’m sure he is not too concerned about this at the moment, as others have pointed out that his shop is probably full of magical items. This is also why his castle in FTL was full of magical objects from other magical humans and creatures. He had already had a long range plan of gathering these objects and having them nearby (along with the true love potion) for when the curse was in-acted, and everyone would be sent to a non-magical place.
That’s interesting and sounds plausible. We know magic is stored in objects because of Regina’s ring, which I noticed was back on her finger in the season two premiere. Evidently using it for Jefferson’s hat didn’t destroy it. And we know that whoever controls the dagger controls Rumplestiltskin so the dagger has magic stored in it. So maybe that was the only way to get the wraiths to come out, by stabbing it. We’ll have to study Gold further for any instance of him using magic.
Another thing was “Dark One” Rumple always spun straw into gold, but in Storybrooke, there was nothing magical about Gold’s spinning. He wasn’t using his magic, even though there was a basket of straw in the room that he was spinning in. Maybe he can’t because the magic isn’t “in” him. He was doing what he did pre-Dark One curse…spinning wool into yarn.

That’s interesting, too. Maybe Emma is like a set of rabbit ears (for those who remember what those actually were).
Maybe both are correct. Maybe magic needs a conduit, like with the fairies needing wands and fairy dust. The objects, like Rumple’s dagger and even Emma herself, are conduits that allow the magic to travel and be used.

Yes I agree with you there as will- just substitute my posts ‘flow’ with your ‘frequency’ lol 😉
