ParticipantYeah. But it’s also a LOST number (the number of the Savior Jack to be specific)
Oh I see. I never really watched that show. Is Jack the Emma of Lost? Also, what is the significance of number 89, Neal’s apartment number? Is that a Lost number?
89 isn’t a LOST number (though 8 is) Dunno if there is a signifance to 89. But with 23, it’s the number of the Savior. 6 castaways were assigned number Jacob, who was in charge of the island. 23 was given to Jack–and he’s the Savior. He was also part of a love triangle. He got the girl
(who was a girl on the run from the law with daddy issues….) Love that RG just explained a huge part of Lost in like, one paragraph, LOL 😉 (And 89 was not a significant number for Lost so I’m not sure if there’s extra meaning in that one or not.)
Random: I have a friend on Twitter who is not handling the spoiler of doom speculation very well (she’s a SF and MRJ fan and is terrified to the point of not wanting to watch S3B very much) and I discovered something very interesting this afternoon: It is VERY hard to explain why I still have hope for SF and think that things aren’t what they seem to be from speculation in less than 140 characters! I can only abbreviate so many things before it’s gibberish, LOL 😮

GAH, that’s SO freaking beautiful that I don’t even mind that it put that stupid song from the Resurrection promos back into my head after I blew it out of there earlier this weekend, LOL 😉

We need more Robin and Neal scenes together. I like this brother thieves thing that’s going on in the EF.
Preach sister!!! I want to see more HoodFire scenes too. I love that Neal has two friends that he can count on while he’s trying to figure out how to get back to Emma & Henry and save his father. 😀

ParticipantIf I ever get freaked out over the media again, someone please tell me to go watch 312 again. I mean..really! The media spin on this was hilarious now that I’ve seen 312 for myself.
Yeah, it’s crazy how much spinning they were doing over this episode! I’m still waiting for Barbara Barnett to explain how she could start rooting for CS in this episode because I didn’t see that at all. They have a good banter back and forth but it’s totally on the surface and Emma seemed more annoyed by him than anything. It wasn’t nearly as bad as I was prepared for it to be and I could smack the media for doing what they did to everyone. I’ve seen a few people upset over the random CS hug that got cut but Adam’s response keeps making me laugh. Something like, “That wasn’t in the script…the paps with the long camera lenses have led you astray” 😀 I kind of feel bad for the folks who were really looking forward to it but seriously, we CANNOT trust any of those pics that have been floating around for months now and IMO, anyone who puts their canon show stuff in the hands of a paparazzi kind of deserve what they get in the end, LOL 😉

ParticipantSo I know there are 1001 reasons why they keep Colin in the leather for marketing reasons, but look at how they dressed Neal. It is very Balefire, but who else is it like? Charming. Neal’s clothing is a lot like Charming’s–princely, knightly, heroic.
I think Neal is once again accepting he is Baelfire. He’s made peace with his papa, and now he’s even on a mission with Belle to save Rumple. His wardrobe transition from modern clothing to fairytale clothing shows the blending of Neal’s past persona as Baelfire with his adult identity as Neal. He’s Nealfire.
I also had a little theory going on during the winter hiatus about Neal’s EF attire. Reposting for reasons: I was just thinking how distinguished Neal looks in this outfit, almost like a member of the gentry class. Do you think that Charming and Snow appoint him as nobleman? He probably inherited Rumple’s dark castle and fortune. His clothing appears expensive with the fine-woven cape and leather coat, gloves and suede pants. Also, Neal’s royal blue cape is almost suggests an elevation in his status from a peasant boy to a landed gentleman, perhaps even with a title! I was also thinking about the significance in coloration of Nealfire’s brown EF costume: Source:
The color brown is a serious, down-to-earth color signifying stability, structure and support. Relating to the protection and support of the family unit, with a keen sense of duty and responsibility, brown takes its obligations seriously. It encourages a strong need for security and a sense of belonging, with family and friends being of utmost importance. In the meaning of colors, brown is the color of material security and the accumulation of material possessions. The color brown relates to quality in everything – a comfortable home, the best food and drink and loyal companionship. It is a color of physical comfort, simplicity and quality. From a negative perspective it can also give the impression of cheapness and stinginess in certain circumstances. Brown is friendly and approachable. It is loyal, trustworthy and dependable in a practical and realistic way. In color psychology, brown is honest, genuine and sincere. It relates to the hardworking, the industrious and reliable, with both feet planted firmly on the ground. It is sensual, sensitive and warm, engulfing one in a feeling of calmness and comfort.
It is a practical and sensible color which implies common sense. It hides the dirt! The color brown is associated with wholesome, natural and organic produce and anything related to the great outdoors, agriculture and farming. Brown is a frugal color – it is not associated with frivolity, excess or waste in any form. While it is materialistic, it values quality above all else, and everything in moderation. Some browns can show a degree of sophistication or elegance, depending on other colors associated with the brown. For example, brown with a soft white or ivory can appear stylish and classy, although more casual than black with soft white or ivory. Brown suppresses the emotions, creating a safe haven from the stresses of the outside world within which problems can be contemplated and solved. Brown is a color of structure, although by no means does it encourage perfectionism – rather it encourages orderliness and organization. The color brown gives reassurance. It is quietly confident but never the life of the party! Brown does not seek attention – it prefers to stay in the background, allowing other colors around it to shine. Brown is solid with strength and maturity. It prefers to function in its own safe little world – it is not carefree and spontaneous and doesn’t like surprises. It can be considered dull, boring and unexciting by many. In fact it is one of the least preferred colors in the western world, along with orange and yellow.Doesn’t that description of brown line up exactly with Neal’s character? He’s loyal, sincere, warm, and practical. He doesn’t put on airs, but he looks to be a man of wealth now. He puts family first! I just wish Emma could take a gander at handsome Nealfire in his fairytale attire!
I remember when you brought up this color theory during the hiatus from Hades. 😀 I loved it then and I love it now! I actually highlighted my favorite parts of the brown description and the ones I feel most embody who Neal is as a character. The one that really stands out to me is the one about suppressing the emotions because we have seen Neal do that many times in his insane life. It makes me think about that one meme that came across Tumblr that described Neal as ‘jaded’ which basically is the same thing, suppressing everything and becoming numb because you’ve been hit with too many sad things. The more we find all these things that are not easy at all to find, the more I become convinced that there is NO WAY Neal is the death that’s coming later this season. We may not even see him in SB at all if he really was captured or turned into a monkey (don’t get me started on how freaked out I am that I could actually be right with my crazy monkey theory from like 20 pages ago, LOL) so his story won’t even totally become apparent until way later in the season. I can’t see any of his issues with Henry, Emma, or his father getting resolved in any of that time since he won’t even be with two of them (and one may not have his memories for most of the episodes) so there is NO WAY in my mind anymore that Neal is the one to go. Storyline wise it makes no sense (and they’ve said several times it’s storyline related) so right here, right now, I’m going to try to stop worrying so much about that doomsday spoiler and just hope we get to see a lot of Neal and Belle’s journey back to their loved ones and how it eventually succeeds. Good always wins so we know they’re going to succeed!!
Dang, he just looks so incredibly handsome in that FT garb. I can’t stop staring at him (and I seriously just changed my phone’s wallpaper to the pic of Neal walking over the grassy area, aka the BOOM picture before it got BOOM-ified) and honestly , it would be criminal if Emma never gets to see him rocking out that outfit. Mmmmmmmm. 😀

ParticipantI felt nekkid so I had to act fast! My 10am meeting just got cancelled so I’m thinking a new pretty is in order.
*waits in anticipation*
Me too!! I love your artwork and SLFJWEOIGHBEIOGHJDOAKHSD!! Translation: I LOVE YOUR NEW BANNER! 😀
My boss is actually here at work today so I can’t write much but I agree SO MUCH with what you guys have been writing since last night. This is definitely not over and I want more BelleFire scenes like NOW to see how they’re going to get back to their loved ones! 😀
Why is there not a pic or twenty of MRJ in his FT gear here yet!???! 😉

#MoreBOOMLessGloomheatherc1275
ParticipantLoved the Bellefire scenes last night (weren’t enough for me but hopefully we see a lot more of them this season) and I LOVE that neither of them believed Rumple was gone forever. Their journey back to their loved ones is going to be awesome and I can’t wait to see what’s next for them! 😀
