The only option we can see is Regina finds a new man…
This attitude always makes me chuckle lol. You guys do know it’s 2013, right? Not the 1950’s. We even abolished slavery and woman are equal to men these days too! (OK, so that’s still a work in progress)
Why only a man? Why not a woman? Or, and I have Mr Horowitz to thank for this when he said about Emma’s love life “Who or What” WHAT!! HA!(He is so sassy! LOL.), why even a human? Given the very fantastical nature of this show, their are plenty of non-human beings they’ll encounter. Why could she not fall in love with a Fae, or some other creature of magic, or some whole new being that they dream up even. I have to say, I’m a little over the whole lets bring on to the show yet another stubbly faced, pretty boy to try and woo the shows ladies. Really? That’s only been done on, oh, I don’t know…… pretty much every show for the last 30 years. It’s so very, very tired and predictable. New ideas please Mr Horowitz and Kitsis! They seem pretty clued up though – so I expect they’ll come up with the unexpected!

Except…except, the one the has fangirls screaming the most over isn’t the stubbly Sheriff Skinny Jeans or Perfect Prince Charming. It’s the guy with the bad teeth, sparkly, scaly skin, and giggles like a little kid that’s possessed. Robert Carlyle does not tick off any of the boxes for “Hollywood Hottie”, but he has legions of fans adoring him. And that was before his romance with Belle and “Skin Deep”. I know for one I sat up and took notice during “The Price of Magic” and by “Desperate Souls” I was sunk.

If they want to focus on maternal love, then I would like to see Reg adopting all the trapped lost boys as their mother. Love does not have to be romantic but if the spoiler said special someone, then it sounds like that.

“Out there” could really mean anything. For now, I’m just gonna associate it with my theory of RH being alive and single in present day FTL. If they are in fact re-casting that character, it’s gotta be because they have something significant in mind for him in particular, something that wouldn’t work if they assigned the storyline to a different character.
Regina’s endgame has to be someone of significance because of what a big character she is. If they stick her with someone who isn’t known for having a big, strong personality of their own, the relationship will appear completely one sided with Regina dominating, and one of her issues she needs to work on is learning to not be so freaking dominating all the time. She needs an equal. RH could be such a character.

Pretty sure TeamCharmings wouldn’t be of a mind to give Regina custody of all those kids. One of the reasons I’ve wondered if we might see Wendy again in present day NL is so she could end up as a mother figure to all the Lost Boys, as is her traditional role. Maybe PP has had her trapped there and she’s been looking after them all, and once PP is defeated, she’d want to stay there in the same role, though now all the kids are free. It’s not like anyone trapped in NL for 100s of years has any family to go back to in the world they came from.
I still think on top of her Mommy issues with Cora that Regina may be barren. I know that a lot of people think that her and King Leo weren’t intimate because of his love for Snow’s mother, but I would be extremely shocked. I mean, look at Regina, he had to feel something for her (trying to put it delicately but you know what I’m taking about 😉 ). I think her disgust with Snow would have deepened if Leo goes on about his perfect Snow from his previous wife, whilst she is left childless. Even if she’s not barren and they were never together, it would still be like a slap in the face to her if she wanted children of her own.
While I agree that it would be best for Regina to work on herself first, this show is about fairy tales, romance and happy endings. Of course Regina is going to get a dishy love interest…and who knows, she just might kill off the this one, too. We never quite know what they have planned.

I’d like to see Wendy return to take care of the Lost Boys; it would be pretty close to the more traditional story.
As for Regina: I agree that whoever she ends up with has to be a major character with a well known story. She’s not Regina of Stable Boy anymore. She will always, on some level, be the Evil Queen (even if she’s not evil anymore) and that personality requires a big romantic personality. At this point, I’d say it would be a male only because Daniel is precedent. I want a homosexual couple on OUAT, I think it’d be great! But I think it should be a different story, and not just in service of the fans who want Regina and Emma together or Regina and *insert another female here.* They’ve played with gender before (Jack) so it could be that Aladdin will be a girl or something along those lines.

Putting SwanQueen together would feel so forced. Neither Regina or Emma have ever given any indication that they’re anything but straight, and changing both of their orientations now would be unbelievable.
When I was posting about Wendy being a mother figure for the Lost Boys before, I thought it’d be kind of a bummer if she was stuck in NL without a romantic partner, so maybe they could hook her up with Tiger Lily?
On tumblr there are people all over with role playing blogs, and people send in questions and they answer in character. Came across one the other day where someone asked a Henry RPer, what if when he grows up, his true love ends up being a boy. The RPer replied as Henry basically saying, “Well then, he’d be a boy. And we’d probably have lots of sword fights.” Anyway, I guess Henry would only get a romantic partner if the show runs for several more years, so who knows if it would even eventuate, no matter if he’s straight or gay.
I think though that if they do want to have a gay couple, they can’t really mess around with any of the traditionally known straight pairings. If they do it like that, it just makes it feel like a forced thing, just for the sake of having a gay couple as a means of being politically correct. So I think it’d be more likely for them to take characters who don’t traditionally have an epic true love story with the opposite gender, and give them a true love of the same gender instead.
Okay, I’m starting to see the parallels between Neal and Regina’s backstory and how they might work. Both of them had parents who didn’t put them first. Cora took out her heart b/c love is weakness and she wanted Regina to be Queen, even though that wasn’t what she wanted.
Bae wanted Rumpel to be himself again and he made him promise if he found a way for him to be human again, he would do it but re-nicked on that promise later.
So, there’s that. They both come from broken homes and power hungry parents.
Regina enacted the curse so she could finally have her happy ending in our world, and Neal was already here (I assume).
For me, the major thing that negates the possibility of EvilFire is the way they treat family. Neal went to great lengths to try and save his father who had been consumed by dark power. Regina killed her innocent father with her own two hands, moments after he’d basically begged for his life. If I were Neal, I just dunno that that’s something I could get past.
Also, Regina’s lust for power is too similar to Rumple’s lust for power. We know how Neal feels about how his father has used magic to cause harm to people. He’d consider Regina to be just as bad and wouldn’t want anything to do with her, especially not in a romantic sense.
I think the only other even remotely viable candidate for Neal other than Emma would be an adult Wendy. K&H have said that one of the things he loved about Emma when they first met was that she reminded him of Wendy.
The problem with parallels is that just because they are there, doesn’t mean those two characters are going to be together. Look at Snow and Charming. They had different upbringings and different lives yet there is no denying that they are TL. There are always going to be parallels in this show, especially with regards to parents because pretty much everyone on this show (and really in fairy tales in general) have family issues, whether it’s an evil stepmother or a wicked father, ect. It’s a staple of the genre. And it’s how A and E write, look at the sort of family issues they had with LOST. I said this in another thread before the forums were shut down for the re-vamp but looking for parallels is a lot like cloud watching: you may see a giraffe and I may see a man in a hat but that cloud is neither a giraffe or a man in a hat. It’s a cloud. It is its own thing. There are tons of parallels with Emma and Hook, Emma and Neal, Regina and Hook, and Regina and Neal. It doesn’t mean that the more parallels = obvious being together.
I would prefer Regina and Hook together because they can both really heal each other and they have a lot in common (losing their first love, being the “villain” though neither of them wants to be anymore) but if they really sell Regina and Neal then I’m ok with it, so long as it’s believable. However, I won’t lie. At this stage of the show, I really want Hookriel. lol
