August: I think they could and might develop this next season, but their relationship just didn’t seem romantic to me. I don’t read them as flirty and their ‘date’ didn’t seem to try to set them up as a possible couple: just introduced the well into the plot. Could see them as partners in crime, BFF, sibling-like but not each other’s true love…
Regina:……..
Rumple: This would make my headcanon even more like a soap opera…
Jefferson: Well, he acted like a complete spaze/head case their one episode together…helped Regina retrieve an apple…held mother captive….drugged her tea….if she WOULD ever agree to be alone with him, MAYBE???
I’m not sure Grace’s mom is dead and not just ‘lost’ somewhere: Jefferson may still have a true love to find. Then again, this character is labeled ‘love interest’ not Emma’s true love.
Graham: We tried that already. He died.
Baelfire: I think I need to write a ship-manifesto about how much I love the idea of Bae being Emma’s true love, but not convinced he’s the ‘love interest’ for this season. I think he’ll be introduced and play an antagonist for Emma this season, but one or both of them will have a ways to go and probably date other people. I want this romance, but I want it to be a slow burn: building up over time as the two butt heads over and over again. For Emma, though, throwing snarking comments at a guy is probably courtn’ so maybe I can have it all!
A Normal Guy: So overrated.
A Fairytale Character: I’m with Josephine: I see her dating a foil to Baelfire next year, maybe a fairytale character who’s story hadn’t happened yet in EF/ hasn’t found his true love let. Probably nice and both will have a relatively stable, happy relationship: but in the end, it won’t be true love.
