All good points, Slurpeez! Though, to be a pain, we don’t know if NL is frozen or if it just moves really slowly. Like 100 years in NL = 1 year in normal time, or something akin to that.
Tink being a mother figure presents a lot of problems, I agree. I have no headcanon where she is concerned but like Phee said, Peter had to get to NL somehow and Tink seems the most logical choice, but for reasons we don’t yet know.
[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Do you Tinkerbell is still a fairy then? She gave up her wings to be a mother to Peter Pan, or perhaps she fled just in the nick of time before the BF could demote her status.
I think she’s still a fairy. We know she is being introduced in 303 and that she has a connection to someone (probably Regina) which would indicate that she has to be able to travel between worlds. Beans and the Shadow seem to be the only two ways to get to NL at the moment, but Tink, the fairy, was able to travel on her own. So in order for her to be coming and going from NL to FTL and back again, I think she has to be a fairy still.
Traditionally, Peter Pan is not an orphan. He runs away from home as a week-old infant because he hears of his parents’ plans for him as an adult and he does’t want to grow up. So, he seeks refuge with the fairies of Kensington Gardens. After a while, he returns home, because he fears his mother will miss him. However, he’s saddened that his mother has had another baby and doesn’t seem to miss him at all. So, PP goes to NL. Yet, Tink could still be a stand-in figure for his mother in a way that Wendy traditionally has been cast.
Thanks for the clarification. Knew it was something like that.
I definitely think there are many different forms of love. We’ve seen how Emma awoke her son from the sleeping curse with a maternal TLK rather than a romantic one. It would be an interesting parallel if we saw Tinkerbell have maternal love for Peter Pan. Yet, he is the brattiest and most devious boy ever. How could he have turned out so twisted if he had Tink’s maternal love? She’d have to be a pretty rotten mother for him to turn out so unless his bad actions are accounted for by some dark curse despite all of Tink’s efforts to influence him for the better. Yet, from what I know of “Violet” (aka Tinkerbell) from her casting call, she is a bit of a party girl. So, I’m not sure that Tink could handle motherhood that easily.
I feel like this might be a nature vs nurture debate, lol. Regina wasn’t a stellar mother to Henry once Emma shows up, she even says she doesn’t know how to love very well. And before Emma came to town she had put him in therapy and enforced the idea that he was having flights of fancy. Yet Henry is probably the truest believer and turned out pretty good–at least, nowhere near as devious as PP is being set up. So, even if Tink was a loving mother PP may still have turned out the way he is, especially if he thinks he has to save NL and will do whatever it takes. It could also be that Tink spoiled PP rotten, as the saying goes, and that he now thinks he can have whatever he wants and Tink is watching her son make all these horrible mistakes but doesn’t want to correct him out of love or fear. OR she fully supports his behavior.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"We were talking a page or so back about what made Tink go “dark” was that she was denied her TL because she’s a fairy and Blue thinks that is a big no-no. But what if it wasn’t her true love? What if she wanted to give up her wings and power in order to raise Peter Pan? What if he was an orphan, he normally is I believe, and Tink rescued him? She decides she wants to be stop being a fairy and raise him but Blue won’t let her? So they flee to NL.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I doubt that Ariel is Hook’s mother, mostly because they were both stuck in NL for so long that it’d be odd if they hadn’t met yet as adults. Also, I feel it could in infringe on the unique dynamic of Emma and being the same age as her parents.
Yeah, that’s really Emma’s story. It takes away from her development if suddenly another character as the exact same problem.
I wonder if, at the same time PP is trying to take Henry’s heart/soul/shadow/whatever, Tink is also trying to get back to FTL. Maybe her goal isn’t the same as PP’s. He wants Henry and Tink wants revenge on FTL and Blue.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I have no problem with Hook being on a poster, he’s a series regular and incredibly popular in the fandom. What I have a problem with is it *just* being him.
If someone unfamiliar with the show were to see these, they’d think Regina hadn’t yet poisoned Snow and that Regina and Hook were the only two characters.
Season three posters need (at least)
-the JR 6
–Some reference to NL
–The hashtag #SaveHenry which is what ABC and Adam have been using!"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Ariel can show him that not all mermaids are the same!
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"The story HappyEndings is referring to is called Splash.
I don’t *love* the idea of Regina being Ursula but if anyone can do it, it’s Lana.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Not only the official OUAT FB page but the official OUATinWL page and the LOST page asked about them too. I hope they’re trolling.
