RG you don’t need to apologize!! I almost feel awful coming in and holding that shred out… it’s hard to have closure when someone is all, “But what if maybe…”
There are just… a few things… I am just not sold. I respect A&E and the stories they choose to tell, but I am not sold there is not trickery and semantics here. I am personally willing to own my overoptimistic thinking, knowing it is likely false hope, but I HATE that it might bring others false hope… it just seems cruel.
3×22? No place like home… Em(ma) & Henry? Still not sold it’s not important. Between that and Neal mentioning ruby slippers being a portal in 3×03… I think it’s not impossible. Particularly when we have an actor stating he neither quit nor was fired. The elimination of the two options reads to me as continuing employment.
…When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth… -An undoubtedly butchered version of a Sir Arthur Conan Doyle quote.

Enchanted Fan – you’re not alone. I still see a loophole (or three) in the comments made. I am choosing to take a cue from Emma & not offer what is most likely false hope but… I’m still not sold it’s over. I’m sure it’s just denial, but I just want to put it on record. Insanity. I know.

Had a good talk with my roomie (fellow SF shipper) and managed to stop having leaky eyes before going downstairs to face the other roomie. Made it through two episodes – mild snark, no tears. It was surprisingly less painful than expected.
Other Roomie felt the need to tell us that it was too bad so sad for Hook, because Emma’s true love is Neal. We managed to avoid the snark in our responses… mostly, anyways. Just goes to show what we’ve said about the average viewer… my gut is that this will hurt their fan ship more than they realized. I guess time will tell.

I am stuck up in my room, trying not to bawl, because I need to go downstairs, where my roommate will ask if I want to continue on our weeks-long Once-a-thon. I’d like to put on a smiley face, suck it up & watch with her, since I’ve worked very hard not to spoil her… but I am terribly afraid I will just start crying and she will have me committed. I had stopped crying about NF and now this is making me start again… for serious?!

Oops, my above cross-posted & is now out of context.
RG, A&E are idiots if that’s how they really feel. You are deserving of love – as were NF & Em – and cling to 1, 2, & 3A as proof of that. 3B, hey, I don’t know what happened. It’s not the show I fell in love with & it’s sure not a valuation on you. Love is strength… love is strength. Rest in that!

Nope. Sorry. A&E set up a clear, epic, poetic story. At some point they decided to change course – their opinions changed, network, fan pandering, whatever. It’s their show, they have every right to do what they want. But I have eyes and ears, and as someone who has just watched all of S1 & S2 in the last two weeks, the writing was on the wall for this duo. A&E just decided to… repaint. Instead of “Hope, love and second chances,” we’re not wallpapered in, “Life sucks and then you die.”
Excuse me if I choose not to live in that house.

I was all ready to argue semantics until that last article. Guess I still could. I have an awesome crack theory, but no dice – maybe I’ll fanfic it.
This story sucks, guys – it sucks. I have so much incredulousness it’s not even funny.
Thanks all for being awesome.

First of all, and mostly, primarily – HUGE hugs RG. I know I am a loudmouthed newbie, but I can read your pain in every post and it is breaking my heart. Please please know that despite everything you are feeling right now, who you are and what you feel is completely valid. From reading the last year of thread, I know what an awesome gal you are, and giant hugs. (This, too, for everyone else for whom this goes far beyond a TV show. Hugs. Just hugs.)
Join me with the crew who 1) hardly slept last night, 2) cried herself to sleep and 3) feels immensely embarrassed that she is this distraught over a TV show. I did not bawl like this when my RL ship went through massive crisis… it’s been years and I’ve never really cried. But the manner in which all of this was done has utterly gutted me. I had to cut out of work an hour early… held it together for 4 hours but was out of must-do tasks and I just needed to go. Needed to come commiserate with my SF family. How can I be so attached to people I’ve only cyber-known for two weeks? I just needed to be in understanding company, who gets the effect this has had on me.
That said… I am actually on team Phee here. There is a little too much “off” here. I have a crack theory, actually, I’ll post it later. But even as I sit here fighting back tears, I am not ready to concede defeat. I don’t think this is over.

Hugs Ann! I think you’re exactly where a lot of us are. Welcome to the thread, I’m sure we still have cocoa & cookies around here somewhere! 🙂

I thought of the wraith, too.
More & more I am on the “this isn’t over” bandwagon. Eternal optimism may be annoying, but sometimes it is well-served.
Remember, this duo is represented by Phoenix, mythical firebird that rises from the ashes.
