Day 3- Favourite Male Regular Character (Past or Present)
Neal Cassidy I know. Most of you just blinked your eyes and went “what?” But there is something I’ve come to understand over the past few months. I love Rumple, I do. He was what brought me into this fandom; he was what made me love ONCE when it started. I loved his unique personality (shall we say) and I loved Rumbelle and I loved the idea that Rumple was just a father looking for his little boy and I adored Bobby Carlyle. But I am so utterly disappointed with what they’ve done to Rumple over the past few episodes that I don’t quite know where I stand with him anymore. But Neal…Neal I’ll never be disappointed in. Rumple might have drawn me in, but Neal spoke to me. I know what it’s like to be alone and afraid and feel like you aren’t good enough for anyone or anything. I know what it’s like to have to make really hard decisions that are for the greater good, but ultimately it devastates you and the those around you. And I know what it’s like to have people hate for making that decision. I understand his jaded outlook on life because I’m the same way. In so many ways, it felt like Neal was my Onciverse avatar. I will never be okay with the writers killing him off. It was a terrifically bad decision that still has not played out in any sort of watchable plot. In a world where children grow up without positive male role models and fathers walk out or abandon their children, never looking back, why was it so taboo to keep a character who learned he had a son and instead of running, stepped up like a man and I said, “yes. I will be a father.” And then went on to be one of the shinning examples of fatherhood in a series where Prince Charming’s papa was a drunk driver, where Rumple chose magic over his own flesh and blood and where Malcolm chose youth over his son. For a show that tries to sell itself as one that is about family and love, killing off a good father, a good son, and a good man flies in the face of that reality. Neal was more than just Rumple’s son or potential love interest for Emma. To me he was the embodiment of hope and second chances and killing him meant that the show I had dedicated so much of my time to didn’t really care about those two concepts.

"I will be kind but I will speak my mind."
oh my, did not know that at all. This fandom.. Could have easily been a nice little pet name for Emma to call Neal when she woke up in the morning and he is downstairs cooking her some food for breakfast in bed (bagels included)… I should really write fanfiction.
BagelFire does not bother me at the least bit. I don’t allow haters to dictate to me how i view and use a word or phrase regarding Neal.
I find bagelfire adorable because he is so darn hot eating that bagel. Yummy Yummy give me sommy.
But that is beside the point. Look how adorable he is eating that bagel
so stinking adorable I heart my bagelfire!
Although Emma was thinking the whole time.
He likes jelly donuts, brat!
Hmm bagelSwan? hmmm better yet DonutSwan
