Besides the age thing, a reason I can’t support RegalCat in any way, shape or form is that he’s aided in kidnapping Henry. I don’t care what way you look at it. He’s helped kidnap an eleven year old boy and who knows how many other countless victims for Peter Pan. I can’t see Regina ever seeing him in a romantic light after knowing he had a hand in kidnapping her son and taking him to another realm. I can see her throwing a fireball at him or even ripping his heart out, but I can’t see her falling for him.
That is exactly the biggest problem I have with Felix and Regina, even more than the apparent age difference! They’re on opposing sides and it would be just as disgusting to see Regina end up with Greg/Own as it would be for her to choose Felix. Not only was Regina old enough to be Owen’s mother in 1983, but Owen helped kidnap Henry! No way can Regina move past that sort of horrible betrayal.

August 25, 2013 at 12:55 pm #206673PheeParticipantRegina needs to break the cycle of unhealthy relationships but it needs to get to the point where Regina can say “I realise this is unhealthy”. Regina never viewed her relationship with Henry, Graham or Cora as unhealthy, to her that was normal.
She knows that her views on love are twisted. From We Are Both:
I don’t know how to love very well. I wasn’t capable of it for a very long time, but I know I remember… If you hold onto someone too hard, that doesn’t make them love you. I’m sorry I lied to you. And that I made you feel like I didn’t know who you are. But I want you to be here, because you want to be here. Not because I forced you, and not because of magic. I want to redeem myself.
That’s what made it so infuriating when Cora showed up and Regina’s redemption attempt went to hell. Regina does know better. She does know that the relationship with her mother is the model she’d been using with Henry, and that it was wrong. She knows that the way she trapped Graham was wrong, and empty, and not actually love.
I think if any one thing that happens in NL is gonna be a wakeup call for her, it’s gonna be seeing the Lost Boys, who have been kept away from their families, and how sad they are because of it. These kids who have been in NL for so long that all their families are dead, and now they never have the chance to go back and be part of a happy family. Seeing those trapped, abused boys, could well make her face up to what Henry has gone through, that he feels that same sadness over his own family being torn apart, due largely to her own actions. This could be how NL forces Regina to really look at who she is. But unlike the Lost Boys, Henry still has a chance at that happy family because his family are still alive. But if he’s gonna have that family, Regina has to wake up and change.

I completely agree. Regina almost poisoned Emma for trying to take Henry or even just be in his life. This is a guy who is happily going along with the kidnapping of her child and probably his sacrifice. This is not the set up for a love story, or even a tortured affair. Regina will want his blood.

Regina isn’t exactly innocent when it comes to children. She sent many in to the blind witch’s house who ended up eaten and Regina knew what happened to them. She ordered an entire village to be slaughtered which included children. The shadow is the one that kidnaps children, Felix and the other lost ones so far just seem to check whether each child is the one PP wants. I don’t think we’ve seen enough yet of Felix to determine what his full job is yet. Felix will probably die though but it’ll be Rumple that kills him not Regina.
I wonder if PP will send Felix to try and split up the JR6 in a divide and conquer tactic. Rumple will be off doing his own thing. Hook and Emma may get separated from Snowing and Regina in order to build CaptainSwan which would leave Regina and the “two idiots”. Felix could pretend to be on Regina and Snowing’s side whilst exploiting the tension and bad history between them.

I completely agree that Regina is not innocent with respect to children. Just look at what she did to poor Owen and his dad, Kirk, in “Welcome to Storybrooke.” That episode made my blood boil with hatred for the sociopathic woman. What kid of twisted need for love would lead her to try and kidnap a boy and leave him an orphan by killing his only remaining parent? Regina proved she is just as twisted as Peter Pan and his henchmen in that episode. Yet, no matter how horrible a person Regina is, she loves Henry (even if to the point of madness of wanting to kill all his blood relatives). The point I was making isn’t that Regina is innocent and Felix the villain. They’re both villains. However, there is no way that a protective mother bear would ever let someone hurt her cub, and that includes Felix. No way is Regina going to forgive and forget when it comes to any harm befalling her son. As RumpesGirl pointed out, this is the woman who tried to poison Henry’s birthmother in 1×21, and Emma loves Henry just as much as Regina does. Imagine how much more Regina is goign to lay into anyone who even harms a hair on her beloved Henry’s head.
The shadow is the one that kidnaps children, Felix and the other lost ones so far just seem to check whether each child is the one PP wants. I don’t think we’ve seen enough yet of Felix to determine what his full job is yet. Felix will probably die though but it’ll be Rumple that kills him not Regina.
Even if Felix isn’t directly responsible for kidnapping, he is an accomplice and therefore a guilty culprit. It’s like the person who drives the getaway vehicle in an armed robbery; even if he didn’t actually steal, he is still guilty in the eyes of the law for helping someone else steal. The kidnapping of Henry might have fallen to Greg and Tamara, but because Felix is working for the “enemy” who is Peter Pan, he is an accomplice. Felix is the one who came hunting for Baelfire thinking he could be “the boy” whom PP wanted. In the 3×1 clip of Felix and Rumple, Felix came to warn Rumple against trying to rescue Henry. Imagine what kind of terror Felix could enforce of PP now that he actually has Henry in his clutches. In his casting call, Felix was described as the leader of “sinister” Lost Boys.
I wonder if PP will send Felix to try and split up the JR6 in a divide and conquer tactic. Rumple will be off doing his own thing. Hook and Emma may get separated from Snowing and Regina in order to build CaptainSwan which would leave Regina and the “two idiots”. Felix could pretend to be on Regina and Snowing’s side whilst exploiting the tension and bad history between them.
I could see PP and his cronies trying to “divide and conquer” with regards to the JR6.

August 25, 2013 at 6:35 pm #206704PriceofMagicParticipantI could see Felix seeing Regina as the weak link in the JR6. The Charmings have each other for support, Hook is helping out for Emma and Bae (whilst he would prefer Henry to come out alive, his death wouldn’t really have the same impact on Hook as it would on everybody else), and Rumple is determined to go to the death saving Henry. Hook is the only one that has had dealings with Felix so he would have to be out of the way for the divide and conquer tactic to work.
Regina is alone because she has no support network to fall back on, she wants to save Henry but she also fears that the Charmings will take Henry away from her. Felix will play on that fear and get close to Regina so that she trusts him and he can whisper and put ideas in her head.
RegalCat would only work if Regina didn’t know Felix was involved with Henry’s kidnapping and as far as Regina is aware, it is GOAT that kidnapped Henry. RegalCat appears to be my Hookriel and I would be a tiny bit disappointed if it didn’t happen on the show.

In all fairness, Regina betrayed Greg/Owen first, she can hardly complain about that.

I thought I was being fair. If you’d read further down on the page, you’d see I critiqued Regina for being a sociopath, and in particular for what she did to Greg/Owen. Now, Regina is paying the consequences for what she did to Owen, since he has now grown up and kidnapped her son. Regina is getting a taste of her own poisonous medicine. There is no way that Regina would suddenly forgive Greg for stealing her son, just as there is no way Greg would ever forgive Regina for killing his dad. But that’s exactly my point. There could never be any sort of romance between Greg and Regina just as there could never be any romance between Regina and Felix. Regina is going to be out for blood and revenge angst any and all culprits responsible for stealing Henry.
