Agree with Spinning Gold- “the road to hell is paved with good intensions”-so true!
+this
And that is why I wonder if the fairy tale creatures aren’t better off in our world. Maybe that is the true underlining message of Once upon a Time: You can’t fix your life with magic, sooner or later you will pay the price for that.
[adrotate group="5"]This is what the Blue Fairy said about magic beans in the episode The Return (1×19)
Blue Fairy to Baelfire:
A magic bean. The very last one that is known to our kind. The others got away from us. You just use it wisely, and follow wherever it leads you. It will save you both.Blue Fairy to Rumple:
You had the way, you didn’t take it. And there are no more magic beans.Guess most of us remember better what she told Rumple, but she said something slightly different to Bae: it was the last bean the fairies knew of.
More fuel though as well for the theory that the Blue Fairy has her own grand scheme running and manipulated Rumple in this moment. I read it differently, but can see that one can read it as the Blue Fairy telling Rumple not the whole story.
¯\_(?????? ?)_/¯
Like I said earlier

I dunno if there is a grand scheme, the Blue Fairy is extremely fickle, granting wishes to those she considers are worth it at the drop of a hat. Is Jimminy really better off being a cricket? How does THAT make things up to a boy that just lost his parents.
And she HATES the Dark One… Is this because she can’t own up to her mistakes? AGAIN like with Grumpy, If things go wrong, there is never a fairy round to fix it. It’s like oopsie, mistake, well you’llbe fine now won’t you?
It’s not that the fairies are bad, just extremely nosy and irresponsable. First they stick their nose in where it does not belong, then they sprinkle around some magic that nobody wants, and after that they leave when things fall apart,
Just look at the ogre wars. Why did it take Rumpelstiltskin, the Dark One, to stop it? Why could the Blue fairy not protect the land, and innocent children (Because there would be no story, you dunce <- speaks at self) But also because she is a spoilt and fickle little fairy. The act a bit like Greek gods, only bestowing favours when they feel like it. That does not make them bad... just not responsable enough to be handling magic.
Magic is power. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.Does anyone else think the writers might be hiding a political message in this? Or is that just me?
