I am not going to lie, I am all about it being Merlin. Also we do in fact know it is a he. At the very end of the winter finale when Rumple is talking to Ursula at the aquarium, he says “for now let’s just call him the author”. He used the male pronoun so we are good on that front. Before I went back and checked that I thought maybe for a second that it could be Mary Poppins because wouldn’t that just be a kick in the pants! But it is not because it is a guy. So here are some wildly far-fetched ideas:
Professor Emelius Browne from Bedknobs and Broomsticks- Not a very good sorcerer, in fact he’s terrible but he did manage to use magic in our world. I don’t know I just went down the line of Disney films and looked for any male character that showed any magic. And if August interacted with him it would be in the real world. I don’t know, I didn’t think that all the way through but I just adore that movie but it’s probably too out there to bring into the show.
Zeus or Phil from Hercules- This is another wild guess. Honestly the only reason I am suggesting it was because in the Belle flashback during the winter finale, we saw all those Grecian helmets and things in Rumple’s house in the Enchanted Forest and I just thought that was odd. And Hades I am ruling out because why would a villain write stories where he would never win (that is also why I am not writing the names of any villains on this list).
Then there is the Yen Sid business. Yes it would be perfect, and yes his real world name could be Walter, Walt for short. And he is the most powerful so he can transcend stories and worlds and no one would bat an eye about it. But that is just such a cop out. WAY TOO EASY and predictable. The writers are better than that.
At the end of the day, the writers are going to surprise all of us anyway haha
