    Re #3, to me it feels like nothing more than the writers feeling like they had to acknowledge the elephant in the room and make up a reason for why he won’t be seen again.

    It’s perfectly logical. I don’t know where people got the impression that the Author can break the rules of magic in the first place.

    Quote

    I don’t really think that anyone was really under the belief that the Author could suddenly change/break the laws of magic. It’s more that the rules that the Onciverse operate under are incredibly…non existent. Or rather, they exist but there are a million loopholes, usually centered around a plot device that suddenly and inexplicably allows a character to break a rule that was heretofore unbreakable for no other reason than that the out-of-story show runners want it to be broken. A magical pen that can change memories and situations and apparently even history (in which Regina is not the EQ and Snow loved James and in this case that Bae died as a young boy but being proud of his papa) is keeping with the Onceiverse’s aversion to strict laws of magic and their own world building while simultaneously speaking to its ability to embrace plot devices as way to change what the show runners desire, willy nilly style.

    Have we ever seen this building before? Who owns it? What is the significance?

    Yes we have. It’s been around for a few years, since S1 actually. Not sure if he owns it, but it’s where Sneezy works and where we met Ava and Nicolas (Gretel and Hansel).

    It largely depends on if genies are born that way or made. All evidence points to being made that way (Cyrus and his two brothers and Jafar). We don’t know anything about Sydney before we met him, already a genie.

    This explains my frustration with the sneak

    Wait wait wait so the Author magical rule bending author who can just make diamonds and give people magical powers CANT bring someone back from the dead.

    But I agree with this

    I think it helps to accept that the writers DO NOT want to bring back Neal/Baelfire. So there is no loophole which will work. If they change their minds then we’ll see some ‘surprising’ magic doodad and *poof* we have Nealfire. I’m not happy with their lack of interest but I need to move on, if only for the sake of my blood pressure.

    there is a very plausible explanation why that can’t happen

    It’s the same reason they give on the show…because dead is dead.

    I had a very long response and I deleted it.

    I’m not doing this AGAIN for the 10000000000000x time. I’ve been doing it for a year solid since 322 and I’m utterly exhausted from still getting emotionally wrecked over this.
