I’d say that they had casting call information that included, “She never lets a slight go unpunished!” Putting that together with everything else, they concluded that “if she is Tinkerbell” it’s likely that she ran into Hook at some point in NL, and knowing him, it’s likely that he slighted her, which means the crap may be about to hit the fan when she sees him again in present day and decides he needs to be punished for whatever he did to her.
The age in the casting call has nothing to do with anything really if she’s Tink, because like kfchimera said, fairies don’t age. If they did, Blue would look like a shriveled old lady by now. They pop into existence already looking like an adult and they stay looking the same age for their whole existence. So the casting call says it’s someone in her 20s because they want a pretty young woman to play the part. That’s all.
[adrotate group="5"]One of her hashtags on that pic is for Reawakening, which imdb lists as being in pre-production. Haven’t googled to find details about it yet, but I do know that her new show we already knew about (which will air mid-season) is a different show called Mixology.
ETA: Reawakening is gonna be a movie and her casting was only announced at the end of June :

On tumblr yesterday, I swear every 2nd person had posted that pic of Colin and Buckley. The bombardment of cuteness was overwhelming! LOL
I missed the Emma’s laugh made Tinkerbell theory–oooh, interesting. That would mean Tink hasn’t been around all that long though, certainly not when PP began to hunt for Bae back in the day. So I’m not sure I like Tink being so “new” as all that.
Agreed. I’d like to see her being one of the oldest characters, on par with Blue.
“Out there” could really mean anything. For now, I’m just gonna associate it with my theory of RH being alive and single in present day FTL. If they are in fact re-casting that character, it’s gotta be because they have something significant in mind for him in particular, something that wouldn’t work if they assigned the storyline to a different character.
Regina’s endgame has to be someone of significance because of what a big character she is. If they stick her with someone who isn’t known for having a big, strong personality of their own, the relationship will appear completely one sided with Regina dominating, and one of her issues she needs to work on is learning to not be so freaking dominating all the time. She needs an equal. RH could be such a character.
If they want to focus on maternal love, then I would like to see Reg adopting all the trapped lost boys as their mother.
Pretty sure TeamCharmings wouldn’t be of a mind to give Regina custody of all those kids. One of the reasons I’ve wondered if we might see Wendy again in present day NL is so she could end up as a mother figure to all the Lost Boys, as is her traditional role. Maybe PP has had her trapped there and she’s been looking after them all, and once PP is defeated, she’d want to stay there in the same role, though now all the kids are free. It’s not like anyone trapped in NL for 100s of years has any family to go back to in the world they came from.
Is this true about the Fairy thing?
“When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.”
― J.M. Barrie, Peter PanI wouldn’t be surprised if the Genie was tied to the Aladdin story somehow. But I would be surprised if they tried to bring in the story of Aladdin right now with everything else that’s going on. We already have PP and Tink to meet at the start of the season, plus all the other characters already there. Bringing in the whole gang from Aladdin’s story too would be overkill.
There is always the chance that Sidney knows Cyrus and could interact with him or Alice if any Once Wonderland characters make cameo appearances on the main show.
I’ve been thinking for a while that we might see Cyrus arrive in SB to kick off the WL show and tie it all together. That was based on what looks like a portal in Granny’s in the WL promo though, and as far as we know, Sidney is still in the hospital basement, so that doesn’t really fit. It would be fun to see the two genies have a connection from way back though.
Maybe she did try to give him up, because he might have just evaded the police. We don’t know, and there’s so much left untold about the sequence of all those events that people can have a lot of fun with the head-cannon. I like the idea that she stood by him, and it was only after years of not hearing from him that she gave up hope.
True, we don’t know for sure that she didn’t offer up info to the cops. But would she have spent a couple of years in Tallahassee looking for him if she thought he might have been in jail due to information she’d given? It’s not 100% confirmation, but it’s enough for me to believe that she didn’t give him up unless and until we’re shown otherwise.

If not for that meddlesome Rosie Cotton getting in the way. Just sayin’. 😉
I’ve seen someone accuse him of running in the scene in Manhattan, which makes no sense to me. He walked away to a bar.
I love everything about Neal’s demeanour in that scene. There’s the mix of shock and happiness when he first sees Emma, the confusion when she starts ranting, then she says Rumple’s name and you see a switch flip inside his head and the scared kid resurfaces, then the realisation that there’s some serious explaining to do. (Honestly, is it any surprise he wanted to be where the alcohol was? I’d have ordered something stronger than a beer.)
He didn’t run from her, he was being sensible in realising that this was NOT a conversation to be had out in the street, which was really just common sense.
I also loved the way he casually said she could keep yelling at him once they got to the bar because it was a familiar sense of, “I know how you are when you get like this,” and her foot stomp head shake was that familiar, “OMG you drive me insane but I can’t quit you,” thing. Those few seconds said to me that despite all the years apart, they still knew each other.
Some people find Neal’s responses to Emma as “mocking”, but I think these two have an ease and banter to their conversations. Like some people think he actually got Henry drunk, but it was a total joke between Neal and Emma to compare an exhausted Henry to a passed out drunk person.
Wait up, there are people who think he was being serious about having got the kid drunk?! LOL
Also, I completely agree that they have the banter going on. What some see as “mocking”, I see as a reinforcement of their familiarity, because when you have a certain level of closeness with someone, you can rib each other safe in the knowledge that it’s not something that should be taken to heart. (My close friends and I will regularly straight up insult each other, but it’s done as an expression of affection and all of us know that it’s not said with serious intent.)
Yeah, he had a go at her saying he never believed in her lie detection superpower. But she instantly shut him down with, “Oh PLZ, whatever, you so did,” and keeps sticking to her guns. And he agrees to let her look into it, because yeah, she’s right, he totally did believe in her lie detecting thing, so even if he doesn’t wanna believe she’s right, he’s still gotta wonder and let her do her thing and see it through. He has no reason to not trust her. She’s never betrayed him in the past, she actually put herself on the line to protect him.
Neal and Emma have been through a lot, as individuals, and as a couple. They’re stuck in a seriously screwed up situation. They still have a whole lotta stuff to deal with. But in the midst of the madness of SB, he was something familiar she could hold onto, the only person in town who had known her before SB, the only other person who actually knows what living in this world is really like and the mindset it gives you. Since getting there she’s had everyone trying to redefine who she is, but he knew her before. So in the scene in Lacey where he tells her that he knows she always finds what she’s looking for and she’ll figure this new mystery out, he wasn’t saying that as someone saying to her, “You’re the Saviour, so you have the power to do it.” It was a vote of confidence in her as an actual person. So for all the ribbing he gives her, even if someone can’t see those interactions and interpret them as a sign of their familiarity with each other, THAT moment right there is what proves that he believes in her. The awkwardness of everything is stripped away in that brief moment and he’s just, “You’re awesome.”
If, after that moment, he tries to make out like he doesn’t believe in her, that’s his fear talking, because if she’s right, like he knows she usually is, that means Tamara has deceived him and he’s once again been betrayed by someone he cared for and is gonna lose them, and he doesn’t wanna have to feel that again, and frankly I don’t blame him.
One thing I like about Neal–even though at one point I sort of wanted him to BE PP–is he is not a familiar face from a fairytale. That aspect, that he, Henry and Emma are original characters as talked about in Schmacky’s blog post, is part of the appeal of this ship too.
Yes! I love that they’re their own original fairytale story. It’s cool how K&H have twisted all the old stories, and at the same time written their very own fairytale to weave in as well.
It’s one of the major factors that I think points towards them being endgame. The standard fairytale formula is a destined couple overcoming the odds. It’s not a couple falling in love, then falling out of love, and falling in love with other people. I know K&H have said they intend to explore the theme of finding a new love, but I think, if they want to stick with the fairytale formula, the only characters who will be given a second chance with a new love are those who unquestionably have no way of resolving things with a past love, due to the other person having died.
So isn’t he still free now in SB? The Genie only stayed with the King because he thought he might find true love at the King’s palace.
Hmmm, fair point. Though after that, he was trapped again, only this time it was in a mirror, and not in the same way that he was trapped in the lamp. Still, I could buy it if they wanna say that someone opening his cell door is akin to someone having “set him free” in the “now you get wishes” sense. Just imagine his entrapment by Regina is like take 2 of his entrapment in the lamp, so similar rules could apply to him being released.
