Bae would be his Happy Ending and Belle his Happily Ever After, and that isn’t an ending…it is a beginning.
This. Really, he needs them both, but before he can move forward whole-heartedly with Belle he needs closure with his past. He needs to confront his childhood, his marriage, and what he did to Bae before he can move forward. Man needs some self-forgiveness, too.
I agree.

Didn’t Johnny Depp say that?
It’s so appropriate for CS!Did Johnny Depp say that? I just saw it on my tumblr and saved it on my likes.
Hook doing the right thing once again even though it could cost his happiness. He’s also doing the honorable and selfless thing by telling Emma and the others about Neal.
Do you know if this happens I will be absolutely so freaking happy. Because:
Your belief in love wasn’t strong enough to overcome your fear of rejection.
If Killian DOES tell Emma, then his belief in love IS strong enough to overcome his fear of rejection. LALALALALALALA…
.
And you know who else is going to see this? Emma. She’s going to be able to see the difference between Neal + Hook. I think she’s already starting to but this will reinforce what kind of true love she deserves.
Have you all read this rumbelle meta?. It’s very interesting.
I’m spotting a lot of beautiful quotes on tumblr and save them. I knew I saved that one, so glad I did.
Spoiler for 3×06!!
As the Nevengers will be trying to rescue Neal, it looks like Hook told Emma and the others the truth. [x]

You know what else that reminded me of?

While I fully believe that Emma truly loves Neal, and was in love with him, I don’t think she was truly IN love if you get my meaning lol.
This reminds me of:
If you’re in love with two people, pick the second one. You wouldn’t have fallen for them if you truly loved the first.
This quote right here is what makes me believe in our ship. So don’t worry guys. Feelings are complicated, emotions are complicated, but if there’s anything we’ve learned from this show is that hope is strong and love will always win out. And you can love two people at the same time, but you can’t be in love with two… You’re not really in love with the first if you fell for the second.
And I’m not even talking about just Emma, I’m talking about Neal here too.

Let’s be honest, the SAME DAY that Neal was defending Tamara and still very much planning to marry her was the day that he told Emma he loved her. Granted, it was after Tamara shot him, but why haven’t we seen him mourn the loss of that relationship? He was so quick to confess his love to Emma after Tamara shot him, that I wonder if he ever truly loved either of those women. Do you think he is just so in love with the idea of having a family, the one thing he never truly had growing up, that he is willing to slide any woman into the girlfriend/wife role? He might care about Emma and definitely cared about Tamara, but was it “true love” for either of them, or was it Neal’s desperate attempt at having some type of family? I understand that most people desire to have a family and true love, and that is perfectly normal and wonderful. However, I would want to be loved more for who I am and not JUST because someone wants a family they never got to have. Just my opinion.
I think he did love both of them, but I agree that what he wants most is a family. Completely. He wanted to be with the Darlings more than anything. He must have spent his 300 years in NL thinking about them, longing for what was with them. Then he meets Emma and he wants to settle down with her. He meets Tamara, falls in love and wants to get married. He went to SB for Henry, not for Emma or Rumple. He asked Tamara to come to SB. He told Tamara everything about his past so that she wouldn’t find out on her own, which is more than he gave Emma. I hope he finds his HE… but with Emma? …. no.
I agree.
One thing I would be really disappointed with is if the writers don’t deal with the effect Tamara’s betrayal had on him. A+E have said that he was in love with her, fake persona or not, and that he had moved on from Emma. A common theme with SF is that they gave up on each other – Emma in Tallahassee and Neal with Tamara. They didn’t fully move on – but they did give up. That is not TL. Anyway, the fact that Neal hasn’t dealt with the whole Tamara thing and is running around professing his love for Emma irks me a lot. I don’t think Tamara has been laid to rest – Tink has her watch after all. To me that means that Neal will soon find out that his ex-fiancé is dead. He also seems to be attempting to fool himself with his reasons for letting Emma go.
Now that you mention it, I’d like to see this addressed as well. Even if Neal loves Emma now, he clearly stated to her over and over throughout much of season two that he loved Tamara. Now, maybe with Neal, he can switch on/switch off feelings like that, like a light switch but it’s not realistic at all. He was going to marry her. He fell in love with her and found Tallahassee with her.
His story is not congruent to the overall arc. He didn’t even get a proper poster, we don’t know what his NL arc is, apart from some vague “second chance” thing. But second chance at what? With Emma or with Rumple? I’m leaning towards Rumple. Because that’s the relationship that Pan attacked.
I’m leaning towards Rumple too. Bealfire was the reason Rumple needed the curse to begin with. He created it so he could come here and find his son. That’s the heart of the story. It’s a story between Rumple and his son. To me, that means Neal’s love story with Emma is secondary. Before he can even think about a relationship with her, he needs to at least try and reconcile with his dad. I just hope Rumple can take him back after the stunt he pulled in “Nasty Habits.”
Pan also has a habit of playing on people’s insecurities. Look at Emma, in Lost Girl, he played on Emma’s fear of becoming an orphan again and Henry turning away from her. With Neal, he didn’t play on Emma not loving him again. He played on Neal’s fears that his father hadn’t changed. With Hook, Pan played on his fears that Emma doesn’t truly love him but will always love Neal.
See what Pan did there? 😉
All the villains know what’s going on.
