That was definitely not anti-Neal…….it’s very well thought out. I think there are equally good reasons to believe it’s Belle or Hook…..we just don’t know.

Thank you! I woke up really early this morning and thought, I’d write something. I’m glad it made sense and you liked it.

I did! I would be so upset if it was Neal……He has so much story potential. I hate deaths because they usually happen for no real reason except shock value

Sometimes, they are. Heroes did that a lot in season three but the thing with Heroes, was that Hiro could travel back and time and save people. The good deaths, are the ones that aren’t done for shock value and ratings, but a part of a story that moves the story along.

If it’s all about story, then it has to be Belle who dies. She has no connection to anyone other than Gold, her friends like Archie and Ariel are non-regulars, she gets generally very little screen time and no story…………and the biggie? Her death would IMO lead to Gold having psychic break, a nervous breakdown….He’d be emotionally shattered and deeply, deeply despairing.
January 22, 2014 at 1:11 pm #239544obisgirlParticipantI wouldn’t want Belle to die either. Next to the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beauty is my favorite. and I love Once’s Belle. She’s a strong character in her own right and seeing her this season, work with Ariel in Storybrooke, that was awesome. I feel like she could have a good storyline by herself without a connection to Rumple, if it’s done right.
Dark Hollow proved that and the Outsider from season 2.

I’m doubtful that that’s the story they’d want to tell with him in the future. He’s been in that dark mental place for centuries, and has finally turned a corner in a MAJOR way. I think his storyline going forward will likely be reuniting with his family and having to re-invent himself without his Dark One magic. Without that, he can’t control and manipulate people like he used to, he doesn’t have his crutch, he’d have to adjust to his new role in the community and alter how he relates to people, and I imagine that would be frustrating, confusing, and at times demoralising. There’s plenty of potential for the character in that regard without them having to put him through more torment due to losing his TL or his son, both things that have been done before so would just be a rehash.

She could. I think she’s a GREAT character………..but that’s me. It’s been 3 seasons now and Belle is always sidelined.

Well I agree that’s what I want to see……..and I want to see him adjusting to being mortal. How is his physical condition? Is he worried about being 20 plus years older than Belle physically and maybe dying before she does> Is he worried about being an older father? These are questions Rumbelle should deal with…..However, that doesn’t mean that Adam/Eddy agree. I don’t really trust them…..actually, I don’t trust them at all
I mean, Gold has had the most beautiful redemption arc, but I think A/E enjoy seeing him freak out or be shattered, things like that. In other words, the easy way out

That sounds a lot like the situation with Hook and Emma right now.

I feel like Belle dying and how Gold/Rumple would handle that has already been done though (not that she’s not still a possibility for the death). We’ve already seen Rumple lose (or so he thought) Belle and he lived with that for the 28+ years. That wouldn’t be interesting to tell again, in my opinion. Same with Neal – we’ve already been through the “Neal is dead” thing and seen the fall out. So if it’s about the story then neither Belle nor Neal dying would be anything groundbreaking or unexpected.
They’re both still possibilities though. I just feel like if that’s the route A&E are taking then it’s been done on the show before and not very clever lol.
