Saying that someone’s comment is laughable is insulting……….and I never said they have been depicted as step-mother/step-son.
Oh, whatever at this point – the conversation is not worth continuing. I find it hilarious, though, that you refuse to consider it a possibility that Belle would feel that way about Bae in part because their relationship (brief as it is) has never been portrayed on screen that way when you’ve just commented that you think it’s possible that Belle/Bae would have a fling even though we’ve seen nothing to indicate that would ever happen
[adrotate group="5"]I guess we can just agree to disagree on this for a million different reasons. I hardly think Belle would move on (a) within a year of Gold’s death (I don’t think she’d move on ever, at all) and (b) with his son….but anyway, different strokes for different folks
Um, Belle thinking of Neal like a step son is not laughable; that comment was unnecessary. Emilie said it, so maybe you should tweet that to her? The point isn’t that Belle would be like a mommy to him, but she has been devoted to him for decades and yes I think she loves him…….because he’s the son of the man she loves (and eventually she’ll love him for who he is once she gets to know him, though it SUCKS royally that she/he are going to forget their bonding once they get back to SB). The point is that Belle’s feelings for Neal are never going to be romantic – nor will his be for her. IMO, he needs a maternal figure in his life and a friend……she can serve as both.
I want Neal and Belle ONLY in the DC……….I hope RH has the decency to leave on his own. Belle wouldn’t ask them to leave probably because Neal gave the DC to RH, but no doubt he’ll regret that almost immediately. The DC is really Belle’s now…..poor thing. The HOME that Rumple so wanted to make for her there is a mess and everything will remind her of him………..
Sigh. It’s nearly impossible for me to look at Rumbelle moments now but………god, I love this sooo much; Rumbelle just gave off serious “married people” vibes. Belle’s hands are very nimble, lol………and I adore, sigh, how she pats Gold’s chest and leaves her hands there………..
Um, Rumple with Cora was well before he was with Belle

If Neal turned to someone else so quickly, following their return to the EF, that may help lessen the blow to NF fans as they may not see Neal in the same light anymore. Not saying this is what’s going to happen but with these guys, one just never knows.
Um, that’s not even a possibility in my mind. Not only would Belle never get involved with anyone after Rumple (a year or 30 years), to do so with his own son? No, she views him like a step son; she’s been devoted to him for decades even without having met him. There’s no chance of this happening. People can bond in grief, just bond period, without crossing that line……. I would think they’d be very close, but in a beautiful way. Adam and Eddy might as well end the show if they did this…….ick. Also, FYI, it was Eddy who said Belle and Bae would bond.
I think Neal’s a little old for Belle to be viewing him as a step son. She barely knew him up to and including the last episode. He’s not the little boy that Rumple had been describing, he’s a full grown man. Huge difference between the two. Again, not saying it’s going to happen, only saying that one should never say never when it comes to Adam and Eddy. Found that out through 6 seasons of LOST and 2.5 seasons of ONCE.
That’s just semantics, though – and Emilie/MRJ teased about a stepmother/stepson relationship. The point really is that whatever relationship they have is going to be familial only – and Belle would never (nor would Neal for that matter) indulge in a relationship with anyone, nevermind each other. Belle’s love for Gold is matched only by his for her…..and that’s an epic love; she simply wouldn’t do it – if necesssary, like Gold, she’d spend the rest of her life waiting to be reunited with him. AS to Adam and Eddy, I think we can say never when it comes to this. For one thing, they were not showrunners on LOST, they didn’t create it – they were just writers. For another, they know what they can and can’t get away with on this show; they’re not doing anything to hurt TL couples and Rumbelle would be destroyed if this happened, nevermind Belle herself.
Adam & Eddy may not have initially created the series LOST but they came into the show midway through S1 and were responsible for the story lines from that point on. They were also executive producers. The point is they are known for their twists and they follow THEIR story, regardless of the ships. As for TL being destroyed because a relationship was sidetracked, MM being with Dr. Whale, David being with Kathryn, Rumple being with Cora, Reggie being with Daniel, etc., discredits that notion. My point is that we shouldn’t be jumping to conclusions regarding story lines or characters. You might see Belle one way but that doesn’t mean that Adam or Eddy sees her that way or sees her relationship with Rumple that way. This is Adam & Eddy’s story and they will take a character down whatever path they feel is necessary to tell their tale. Anything can happen as we’ve seen throughout this series and I like to remain open to character changes and growth. 🙂 In any event, I’m moving on from this subject as I think we’ve jacked this thread long enough. 😉 Perhaps it’s time to get back to the subject at hand, the interview, rather than concentrating solely on Rumbelle. 🙂 Cheers.
Well you can, but I can’t let this go without responding. You brought it up, so the subject is out there whether you choose to continue debating it or not.
MM was with Whale one night and seriously? She didn’t know who she was nor who David was..Cora was well before Belle, David didn’t know Kathryn (nevermind love her)……….Adam and Eddy are not going to touch TL (and Regina/Daniel were never established as True Love anyway) – they’re not going to mess with Rumbelle or Snowing like that, which is partly why we have a triangle with Emma now. She’s the only main character they can give multiple love interests to.
Adam and Eddy have spent (and I say this as someone who doesn’t even believe they particularly like them) 2 years cultivating this incredible love between Rumbelle…….Belle having an affair with her TL’s son is not character growth, it’s completely out of character.

Why would they hint at any scenes for RumBelle when they won’t even admit Rumple’s alive? Rumple’s fate is a huge spoiler right now. There is no way they are going to tell us any more than they have on when and where we will see him again- including when he’ll be with Belle. So it’s pointless to make any assumptions based on what they’ve said so far. I think we are going to see RumBelle flashbacks in episode 15. Since they told us we aren’t going to see Pre-Rumple Belle and we know Belle and Lumiere are featured in 15, it’s a pretty decent bet. Or if it’s a flashback to that missing year, perhaps Belle is seeking Rumple. Even if they aren’t physically together in the present day that won’t mean we won’t see them in the past or that they won’t play a part in each other’s present day story. We were just talking about how lovely their relationship was in Dark Hollow when they were in different realms. Don’t start taking speculation as fact- you’ll give yourself a migraine. They have left it completely open as to when we will see RumBelle again. I’m far more excited to see Belle get more of a story than I am worried about seeing RumBelle together though.
All good points, Angie… Even though I’m skeptical because A/E have always said Belle will have story, I DO have a feeling that this time it’s different.
I think Belle will meet Lumiere in the year that was past in FTL, so I hope we’ll get Belle remembering times in the DC. I’m dying to see their friendship, but also the awkardness that must have arisen after they realized the intensity of their feelings.
I also have to remember that A/E said twice (December and January) that Rumbelle would be explored -remember the famous “whatever state that’s in”? LOL So…maybe Belle will try to save Gold IF he’s under the WW control or he’s the DO again or whatever. That would be fantastic…… as long as (a) they get a proper, LONG reunion and (b) they are not torn apart AGAIN at the end of S3. I admit that I don’t like the idea of Gold being controlled or his being the DO again at all…….. He worked so hard to change and this is what he has to suffer through? It’s cheesy…..and I don’t have this fascination with DO Rumple (really DO, like early on) that so many do.
Stelio, that’s a great point. I really REALLY want Belle to put her foot down and make it known to everyone that she won’t be ignored and she’s going to make sure that Gold is remembered.
I’m tired of being miserable, I hate it. I want to enjoy what’s coming up…..My problem is that I’m always looking ahead and I worry about them being separated again. I can’t imagine A/E will go there, though……….I suppose it’s not worth even thinking about just now, lol

Belle is one half of Rumbelle. Rumple is coming back (how can anyone believe otherwise? He’s obviously somehow “alive”based on the 3×16 photos). They develop Belle through Rumbelle. Ergo, more Rumbelle. A and E gave no hope to Rumple’s return because #nospoilers…we know he is.
I don’t agree, but I guess we’ll see. Belle seems to have her own story (or whatever) and Gold has his own…. the fact that they wouldn’t even hint at any scenes at all (FB or whatever) is pretty revealing. They’ve sort of shot Rumbelle to pieces for the 2nd half. No Rumbelle is so depressing…wow.

Hope we get him) –The way they sorta talk around Rumple and his coming back makes me think that it’s a super big surprise with how that storyline wraps up –Regina and Robin Hood are going to be very exciting.
I have to admit I just read the interview and can’t find anything hopeful about Rumbelle. They never said they wanted more Rumbelle moments…….they just said they had plans for Belle. Hmm, I’m sorry I read the interview now…….

They specifically said Belle when the interviewer asked about Rumbelle, so I’m going with the notion that we won’t get any Rumbelle (except for possibly FB/memories) in the 2nd half of the season.
