I have always wondered if Blue had her memory this whole time. For such a powerful being, it makes me very suspicious that a curse (even the Dark Curse) could totally take away her memory. She is supposed to be the most powerful magic and oldest in the land.

OH! I HAVE SOMETHING ELSE.
Okay, so when August pretends to be Bae in “The Return”… He knows an awful lot about him. We assumed he must have some kind of contact with Baelfire to know all of this. But he DOES say “A fairy told me”… What if Blue has had her memory the entire time, and in fact DID tell August what he wanted to know for her own machinations?
That’s the theory I’ve been subscribing to ever since the ep aired. Seemed obvious to me that she’d kept her memories the whole time and that’s what her meeting with August was about. It’s why I haven’t put too much stock in the theory that August knew Bae. He didn’t have to, coz he got all that info from Blue.
I’ve even gone so far as to speculate that she didn’t just orchestrate Henry being brought to SB, but may have also orchestrated his conception, especially if Bae is his father. Blue contacted Bae in our world, and he’d met her before, so knew she was who she said she was. She directed him towards Emma, explaining who she was and that he had to meet her as it was a step in eventually having his father’s curse broken. If that proves true, then she was the one who sent the postcard.
Anyway, ever since she was labelled as the “original power”, I figured she had to have contained both light and dark magic, and something that happened to her may have split her powers and created The Dark One. Maybe she was trying to rid herself, and thus their world, of dark magic, not realising that it’d just migrate to another being and become harder to control. Maybe she’s been figuring out a way to gain back that control ever since.
She’s delightfully diabolical. π
November 2, 2012 at 7:30 pm #159172GrimmsisterParticipantThe blue fairy= a White dwarf (the collapsed star sort)
*Remember Reul Ghorm can be translated as blue star in old gealic
*If you look at a picture of a star that has collapsed into a white dwarf,
it does not look white, it looks blue
*She is associated with dwarfs because she is small-
and is connected with dwarf Grumphy through Nova
*Nova is also a name of a collapsing star- the super nova, but that is of a more clumsy kindA white dwarf produces no new energy (no new magic?) it is running out cooling down, dying- meanwhile if it is close enough to other stars it can suck the energy or mass from them and become so heavy that they collapse even more and become a black hole. :ugeek:
Blue Fairy is trying to suck some new energy/new magic by entering real world in an attempt to stay alive. But a white dwarf is infact already a dead star.Something else:
The Stolen Child- by William Butler Yeats
This poem was used in the movie A.I. wich was an interpretation of pinnochioWHERE dips the rocky highland
Of Sleuth Wood in the lake,
There lies a leafy island
Where flapping herons wake
The drowsy water rats;
There we’ve hid our faery vats,
Full of berrys
And of reddest stolen cherries.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.Where the wave of moonlight glosses
The dim gray sands with light,
Far off by furthest Rosses
We foot it all the night,
Weaving olden dances
Mingling hands and mingling glances
Till the moon has taken flight;
To and fro we leap
And chase the frothy bubbles,
While the world is full of troubles
And anxious in its sleep.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.Where the wandering water gushes
From the hills above Glen-Car,
In pools among the rushes
That scarce could bathe a star,
We seek for slumbering trout
And whispering in their ears
Give them unquiet dreams;
Leaning softly out
From ferns that drop their tears
Over the young streams.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.Away with us he’s going,
The solemn-eyed:
He’ll hear no more the lowing
Of the calves on the warm hillside
Or the kettle on the hob
Sing peace into his breast,
Or see the brown mice bob
Round and round the oatmeal chest.
For he comes, the human child,
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than he can understand.In this poem fairies are seen as something vile, something that lures human children into the dark forest. Only to grab them and keep them, for themselves. Because they need it, they crave something living. because life is what they do not have themselves and what is more alive then a new little child.
Much like the above star or even the black hole sucking and demanding more and more. A hole that can never be filledβ¦Da da da DAAAMM !! π
November 2, 2012 at 10:03 pm #159181TheGoldenKeyParticipantHey, trust me when I say, I don’t care for Blue. Bit of an attitude. However, the problem with this theory is that K&H have made it very clear that she is the good guy. They’ve stated that in several interviews and in one of their recent podcastsm where they describe what her personal curse was. That is, a nun who wants to help everyone but is powerless to do so without her magic. They haven’t been vague or ambiguous about what she represents or her motives. They’ve clearly said she’s the good guy. That’s why I love paying attention to their interviews, podcasts & twitters. Much information to be gained from what they say.

November 2, 2012 at 10:14 pm #159182beautyistruthParticipantUgh. I’m actually sort of disappointed that she’s good because I cannot stand the writing for her character :/ It’s not just her smug attitude, it’s how ineffectual she is at fixing anything. Rumple asks if there’s a curse? Whoops, going to -very- badly attempt to lie. Not to mention how emphatically she says that he will never reach Bae, except through the curse, when the characters keep discovering new ways to travel between realms and magic beans are accessible via. other realms. Nice job breaking it, hero. I hope that even if she’s firmly on the side of good, there is some larger, benign reason why she’s pushed events to occur the way they have, otherwise, she just comes off as an idiot.
November 2, 2012 at 11:53 pm #159190nonnieParticipantI thought the same thing but you put it much more eloquently, YOU have been really investigating the show for your theory. I look forward to following more of your posts.

November 3, 2012 at 12:58 am #159191melliemdParticipantThanks for all the comments guys! I tweeted this to Keegan Connor Tracy who plays Blue, and she replied! I got super giddy hehehe.
November 3, 2012 at 1:36 am #159196TheGoldenKeyParticipantMellie, that was really nice of her to reply. Jane Espenson is really good that way as well. She’s replied to a few of mine. Keegan is right, you’ve got a very creative mind π I like how you think as well even if I don’t think Blue is bad. Keep the theories coming π

November 3, 2012 at 7:46 am #159211PheeParticipantThat’s cool that she replied to your tweet, Mellie! π One of the things I love about Twitter is how it’s closed the communication gap between fans and celebs.

“Good” can be a subjective term though. Just because she’s one of the “good” guys, and on the “right” side, that doesn’t mean she’s never used questionable means to get that “right” outcome accomplished. If she did orchestrate and manipulate all of this, she did it with the best of intentions, believing that the eventual happy ending would justify her devious means.
November 3, 2012 at 1:37 pm #159220RumplesGirlKeymasterExactly, Phee. Is anyone really “good”? Is anyone really “bad”? Every character is a different shade of gray and I think the BF has made some questionable choices. I want to know what she did to stop Rumple from finding this curse. She obviously realized he was going to try to find it (he flat out told her after he lost Bae). So what was she doing for those 250+ years while Rumple went about learning the magic he needed to do this??
