I think we may see August at some point to maybe fill in a couple of gaps here and there.
I do wish we’d see little Pinocchio, even if it’s just hanging out at the park with Henry for a minute rather than just hearing about it. I loved Henry’s friendship with August and it would be nice to see Henry have a friend his own age since he doesn’t really have any.
I’d have loved to have seen Gepetto & Pinocchio at the diner with everyone else, at least we’d get a shot of them being happy post-S,B,&T. If we’re supposed to believe it was August’s greatest wish (which I can kinda buy since he screwed up so much, not to mention that his sacrifice DID help us get Belle & Sneezy back), I’d like to see that it panned out and they were happy. So here’s hoping we get Pinocchio in one form or another at some point.

Keck’s Exclusives: Once Upon a Time Stars Talk Season Finale
TV Guide Magazine: What about the possibility of the characters getting doused with pixie dust and taking flight?
Kitsis: “You have to believe in fairies” is what I heard.
Parrilla: We’ll be flying until the harnesses start to kill our bodies, and then we’ll be like, “We don’t want to fly anymore!”
http://www.tvguide.com/News/Once-Upon-A-Time-Season-Finale-Kecks-Exclusives-1064688.aspxAfter much hunting this was the quote I was talking about that I found the other day regarding the possibility of Pixie Dust & flying. Lana’s comments amused me and at least mentioned the possibility they’d be getting ready to have to do a little flying when Neverland rolls around.
This interview was pre-season 2 finale but applies to potential teases for Season 3 as well now, since Neverland hasn’t played out yet.
As per Adams’s response to my question (!!!) about how much actor’s know in advance, they’re given some big stuff early and the rest is script by script. I imagine if they were planning on making them fly, they might be telling them ahead of time to let them psyche themselves up for it (harnesses are painful!) and allow time to hit the gym if they wish to get in stronger shape for dealing with such things *cough Colin has been working out *cough*
That is all…(though I do hope they won’t have to fly all the time, but I wouldn’t mind the possibility of a little flying as a nod to the story we know.

MysteryKat25ParticipantI like that idea! I’m anxious to see Pixie Dust for sure. I’d hate to have them have to fly all over the place too so that would be a great way to fix all those problems and give a nod back to Tink and her powers too.

I thought the ship was enchanted and good fly with pixie dust? How did the lost boys get of the island in there boats if they couldn’t leave ❓
In the movie Peter Pan, Peter gets them out of there by enchanting the ship with Pixie Dust. We don’t yet know what OUAT will do with the ship and as of yet, it’s not enchanted to fly.
As for the lost ones they left the island but they didn’t leave NL. I was under the impression that Wendy’s remarks were about leaving NL and not just the island itself, but rather the whole realm. I’m very interested in seeing how Bae and Hook got out of there eventually and whether those rules still apply in NL today. They might since the shadow thing seems to still be in charge but we won’t know more until S3 starts.

I really hope OUATinWL is at comic con this year because I think that will clear up some of these t-word questions.
I hope so too and I have a strong feeling that it will be. Most of the new shows that the networks are hoping will be a big hit get CC and with so much buzz around this show and so many t-word questions relating to it off the love of the main show, I feel like both should and will get CC panels!
I hope they can work something out and I’m pretty willing to bet that they will. They know the main show has a huge fanbase and that this is one of the incoming shows generating lots of buzz. Hopefully both will have clips to show that are new!

MysteryKat25ParticipantI thought about this too when I saw all the fanfiction pouring in for their longggg boat trip which will actually be very short indeed since the portal should take them immediately to NL. That being said, the ship should be their base of operations for sure because it’s their way home and their one safe haven in the area. Especially if they end up breaking off into groups they’ll need a place to reconvene.
I agree that the portal won’t take them immediately to Henry’s location so they’ll be there for goodness knows how long, even if it is just a place to go strategize / sleep. Then there’s the potential of the “can’t set foot on land” thing coming back into play that could cause some problems too. They also might have to sail around the island a bit to get to the right spot etc. I don’t think they’ll be on the ship for the months that some are envisioning, but we’ll be seeing them on the ship for multiple episodes at least in part (though far less time will have passed for them than for us – it’ll seem like forever but it won’t be).
If you go with just the normal directions to NL (along with the titles of the last 2 episodes of season 2) then the directions basically say you’ll get there by morning. Since they took the bean portal, they should get there even faster. It’s fun to dream / find ways of getting through the hiatus, but it’s not super realistic that they’ll be stuck on the ship for very long unless they really can’t set foot on land, in which case I hope they find a way to fly.
Wasn't there some interview somewhere that Lana and the others talked about flying? Sounded like they were hoping it would happen at some point but not necessarily that they actually knew anything but I saw it the other day and it backed up this theory which I posted some time ago elsewhere.

MysteryKat25Participant* Emma was introduced to him as Killian Jones but then he said she might be more familiar with his other name and she’s called him Hook since – I think this is partially a way of her keeping him at arm’s lengths because Killian is the kinder side that she keeps wanting to believe in but is afraid to. It’s easier for her to call him Hook (as most people do) for now, but I think down the line it’ll be very significant if she ever calls him Killian (which I think she will)
* There’s been lots of speculation as to the name of Killian Jones and I am definitely looking forward to more backstory for him (*please be a farm boy – paralleling to Charming and giving us a bit more of that Westley side too. Pretty please??* – wouldn’t mind connections to William Turner either though 😉 )
* As for the other names, I think in SB, SB names are mostly used – you’re seeing people you remember calling __ for “as long as you can remember” and especially the last year or so before the curse was broken and you’re walking around in Maine, wearing normal everyday clothes. I think also part of it is done for Henry’s sake – he knows MM & David, and while he calls Charming “Gramps” most of the time (too cute!), Charming tends to refer to Snow as MM, especially when talking to Henry. That’s who he knows them as and again, they’re in the SB environment. I’m hopeful that if they go back to FTL, or maybe potentially even in NL (probably depends on any history there could be with it, who may or may not know them etc), they will switch back to the names that they originally had (especially now that Emma has called them “Mom” & “Dad” – before she kept calling them, especially MM, by the name she knew her as as a friend, she didn’t *know* Snow). I’m trying to remember what Snow did in present-day FTL – Aurora & Mulan only have the one option for names, but what did they know Snow as? (I need to do my rewatch but I feel like in FTL, the name Snow holds a lot more weight so eventually if they go back, Snow will once again be Snow so people know who she is and not to mess with her)
* I would LOVE for Anton to be Emma’s “Grumpy” – I adore both Anton & Grumpy and Emma is a lot like Snow in some ways so it would be nice that she gets her own friend like that too. I love Emma’s friendship with Anton and would like to see that continue. It was sweet that the first time she saw him in SB the same size as her, she gave him a hug and was happy to see him! He’s just so sweet and they get each other! (At least she was easily opened up to Anton – shows that she appreciates kindred spirits and that Hook is in fact different to her because she’s pushing him away – ala Graham).
* I too would like to see a flashback to what went down up the beanstalk and how Hook got the necklace from Anton. We know that at some point after Hook climbed down (presumably with the bean necklace in hand since only he knew about it and Cora was oblivious) that at some point Cora miniaturized Anton to bring him along – when did that happen? What were the reactions?
* I think Hook kept the bean necklace a secret as anything other than a souvenier until he got to Lake Nostos and found out its powers. I know he waved it in front of Emma in the jail cell (*cough* fairy dust necklace *cough* oh hello Snowing!) but Cora was completely clueless about why he needed it so this was clearly a Hook thing. Had he not needed Cora, he may have been able to just jump in with the girls but Emma knocking him out nixed that plan. The fact that he knew instantly what the backup would be tells me this is a possibility (and one of the main reasons I strongly believe he wasn’t really trying all that hard and was a bit amused in the swordfight, because he had a backup all along but only if necessary).
* Something that was pointed out to me on tumblr last night and helps with the Charming / Hook parallels!: THE POUCHES. Charming’s pouch that contained Snowing’s symbol (Ruth’s ring) was shown in the carriage and is a very similar shape (though different color) to the one they focused on in the finale that Hook wears and contained the CaptainSwan symbol: the bean. These guys are more alike than they want to admit!
* Speaking of the bean: the first one was old and shriveled and full of hope and possibilities and then it was revived and took him after Emma who was then reunited with her son. The 2nd bean was brand new and created FOR EMMA to get her out of our world which had been so cruel to her, and take her to a world where she could find happiness and have a fresh start and this is the bean that Hook used to take her to Neverland! (Charming originally intended the beans to get them back to FTL but…well, we know what they say about the best laid plans, poor Charming *pats on head*) Anybody have the exact quote from Charming talking about the beans and how cruel this world has been to Emma?
Genuine reaction to first seeing Tallahasseee (aka: shipper goggles off):
I need to rewatch the scene again but in Tallahassee when Neal offers to settle down and hang up the thieving, I coulda sworn that Emma said “really?” in a weird way and *then* let herself get wrapped up in the idea of him not leaving her. Soon after we saw that dream of Tallahassee put into place, he was planning on sacrificing everything to go to Canada without her which made her panic and step in for him which resulted in everything else. I felt like she was more attached to the dream / idea of it, than the actual thing. Either that or she was just super surprised by him not wanting to steal stuff anymore but I felt like something was off in that moment with her initial reaction to it. Plus her flippantly saying “like where, Neverland?” – it sounded like she didn’t really believe they could do it – did anybody else feel this way about this scene when first watching (CS goggles off and try to remember cause this was before we fell head over heels for Hook).
Her first reactions are usually right – she gets talked into believing in people like Sidney because the emotional side of her *wants* to believe, just like when she tied Hook up and her gut said to trust him but the emotional side of her was too afraid to). She genuinely loved Neal and wanted to hold onto him for sure, I’m mostly talking about the idea of them settling down and changing their lives – something seemed off to me in her initial reactions to it all and thenshe got swept up in it and didn’t want to let him abandon her like everyone else did which is how she got herself into the jail mess. She’s clearly been affected by it more than others as he’s presumably one of the first / only people she’s let herself every really trust and she believed in their love and that dream, but this is how I felt after the first time seeing it. She just wasn’t…jumping for joy, or reacting remotely how I expected her to react to him asking to make a life together. (I realize she has issues with trust and her whole life nobody gave her a stable home, but she wasn’t jumping at one was my point – she got talked in to it and genuinely believed in and more importantly FOUGHT FOR one by helping him rather than letting him run off on his own, but that wasn’t her *first* reaction which is key in my opinion.
Going off of that same scene, the first thought that popped into her head was Neverland (in a flippant sort of way but it was still the first place she thought of as what his dream destination where they could have this perfect little life would be – when she still sounded very skeptical). She went to Tallahassee first looking for Neal but not with him. She’s going to Neverland *with* Hook – yay!
* I hope we get the team split up a little in NL so that Hook & Emma get more interaction without others around so that she can see the real him. He’s not very open when others can see it (yet) but Emma gets to him and I think adventures in NL would be fun. As someone said above, Emma is no damsel in distress and they work well together. I think his belief in her strengthens her belief in herself, even if she doesn’t take compliments very well. When she & Snow first arrived in present-day FTL, Snow was in super protective mom mode and Emma could do nothing right. When Emma climbs the beanstalk with Hook she’s more confident and more herself as we know her again. The woman who will do anything to get back to her kid. (We saw a little of this when she burned the wardrobe to save Snow and the others, but the early days with just the girls she was always being treated like a child who didn’t know how to do anything. Hook believed in her on their trip and after all, they make “quite the team!” I love the idea that they save each other and always find a way back, even when all hope seems lost (like the jail cell / bean necklace situation). It’s very Snowing of them!

MysteryKat25ParticipantLOL, as frustrating as a non-answer can be…his non-answers are hilarious and I definitely needed some comic relief today. I may or may not have laughed so hard I started crying seeing his response to that. I love the writers on Once, I really do – as cryptic and non-answery as they can be, they’re awesome.

I’m resisting the urge to send him 1000 questions.
Me too, especially since I think he’s just stalking twitter to get updates about his baseball game which should start soon lol.
I really need to work on a list of good questions to ask each person I want to hear from so I can try and catch them at random times rather than seeing “ask me something” and thinking ;asldjf;aslk “what do I ask???” which has been happening way too much lately lol.
An answer would have been great but they do like good questions so maybe the non-answer means it’s something we can look forward to finding out and/or like KFChimera said, it could inspire something since people are asking about it! Who knows but yay for getting responses!
