Neal is so Bae.

I can't wait for 2.18. I miss August so fucking much!

And we think Lacey may be the "her" that the stranger dude Greg was talking to.

It is my hope of hopes that Neal is not Bae, but it's a long shot. I was watching "The Return" episode last night and it made me miss August and hope that Rumple keeps failing to find his son. Maybe find him in another world without magic next season.
cherisheddreams 2nd-Feb-2013 03:49 pm (UTC)
I'm excited to see the creation of the town. I don't like this mini hiatus they are on right now though! ]=
missjersey 2nd-Feb-2013 03:55 pm (UTC)
NOOOOOO.

Why the FUCK is a 10 year old going with an old dude to find his son in New York City? WHY? Don't they live in like Massachusetts or something? I've said it before I'll say it again, social services need to take his ass from his stupid fairytale dumb guardians who let him do whatever he wants.

God, I hate him so much. I'm sorry, ONTD. I can't help it.
musicnextdoor 2nd-Feb-2013 03:59 pm (UTC)
Because that's his grampy (I think). It's like they know already! And his mom is going too; it's not like it's just him and the oldster. Yeah, it's weird, but everything is weird on this show. It's a fairly unique universe.
missjersey 2nd-Feb-2013 04:05 pm (UTC)
No, Henry's grandfather is Prince Charming. I kind of get Emma going since she's the only one who's been outside of Storybrooke, but a little kid? Shouldn't he be in school?

A big problem of mine is that they keep trying to push this kid and his moms' relationships (Regina and Emma) on us. Unfortunately, most child actors aren't very good and their characters aren't written that well. Henry is written as a special little snowflake who's somehow always right, and he's played by a below-average actor.
klutzy_girl 2nd-Feb-2013 04:00 pm (UTC)
Emma's going to be there, too. It's not like they're by themselves.

And they live in Maine.

Also, they're probably trying to keep him away from Cora.

Wait, Henry is going with Emma and Rumple? I don't even hate the kid, but why?

Oh, 2x17 sounds interesting. Can't wait for that.
musicnextdoor 2nd-Feb-2013 04:02 pm (UTC)
Because TPTB hate us.

And because they'll reveal the relationship between Neal and Bae (I'm guessing) and therefore between the annoying kid and Rumps and Emma and Rumps because of the annoying kid?
meganlynn09 2nd-Feb-2013 04:11 pm (UTC)
Damn, I was seriously hoping Neal was not Bae. So I'm still hoping Henry being there isn't a real sign.
pixiegerms 2nd-Feb-2013 03:57 pm (UTC)
when me and my sister were watching the first ep of season 2 she said it looked like her boyfriend was in new york when he got the post card. sooo... bae?
nichcola 2nd-Feb-2013 03:59 pm (UTC)
Wait, I thought the whole thing with Rumple (well, whatever his name was pre-Rumple)was that he DIDN'T fight in the Ogres War and that was why he wife left, etc...or maybe they've just worded it awkwardly.
klutzy_girl 2nd-Feb-2013 04:01 pm (UTC)
He was always named Rumpelstiltskin.

And I believe he did fight in the Ogre War and ended up deserting because he was a coward.
nichcola 2nd-Feb-2013 04:05 pm (UTC)
Ahhhhh. Thanks! :)
_______awshucks 2nd-Feb-2013 04:02 pm (UTC)
So, did they all wear leg warmers and crimped hair when they first came to Storybrooke?
disclosure 2nd-Feb-2013 04:04 pm (UTC)
Lol, their style evolved with the times but they have no memory of it
missjersey 2nd-Feb-2013 04:13 pm (UTC)
Omg yesss.
starlysh 2nd-Feb-2013 04:27 pm (UTC)
Apparently not. I've seen spoiler set pics and the only one slightly resembling 80s fashion is Ruby. Mary Margaret still has her blue coat.
musicnextdoor 2nd-Feb-2013 04:35 pm (UTC)
Bowing to Ruby. Disappointed in the others. Lost opportunity for some cool costuming all around right there, if they really didn't give them all 80s looks. They didn't have to go overboard (EXCEPT WITH RUBY), but it should have been period.
musicnextdoor 2nd-Feb-2013 04:05 pm (UTC)
A temporary flashbacks-only return of Graham is entirely insufficient and will serve only to remind why he is needed on a regular, permanent basis.
missjersey 2nd-Feb-2013 04:12 pm (UTC)


EXCEPT OUAT!BELLE CAN'T REMEMBER AAHHH!

I'm actually happy she forgot her memories of Rumple. I feel like they could be really great together, but she kept getting back with him for stupid reasons. Now he kind of HAS to change if he wants a chance with her.

Lazy writing, but I'll take it.
m_pendulum 2nd-Feb-2013 05:21 pm (UTC)
Agreed. This might work in Rumbelle's favors even though I don't ship them.
flyingpigs_live 2nd-Feb-2013 05:44 pm (UTC)

flyingpigs_live 2nd-Feb-2013 04:19 pm (UTC)
idgaf about one character in that synopsis. give me more Belle, Archie, Ruby, Jefferson, and Mulan.

also nhf for Neal being Bae. the writing for this show is already bad enough.
missjersey 2nd-Feb-2013 04:25 pm (UTC)
Mulan is a queen and needs to have her own storyline.
musicnextdoor 2nd-Feb-2013 04:33 pm (UTC)
That's a pretty good list right there (although admittedly I think the writing for Mulan has rarely been good enough. It's shown glimmers, though.) Jefferson is my favorite character, and we don't see nearly enough of him. And Ruby is awesome and we should see more of her going on adventures and sleuthing. (I'm newly cautiously interested in FrankenWolf too. Are you opposed?) And yeah, Belle and Archie need stories of their own.
flyingpigs_live 2nd-Feb-2013 05:36 pm (UTC)
yea, I want Mulan to get her own episode, Jefferson and his face need to come back in some capacity. as for Ruby/Whale, it was cute, and I could get into it if there's more. I still prefer Ruby/Belle but as there's zero chance of that happening...

I would also like to see Belle have her own stories withOUT Rumple. that's why i'm kind of happy about this amnesia thing, it's a chance for us to learn about HER as a character.
margerydaw_s2 2nd-Feb-2013 04:56 pm (UTC)
I don't see how Neal being Bae would reflect bad writing, to be honest. There's so many clues that it would be ridiculous if he wasn't.
rosewood39 2nd-Feb-2013 05:36 pm (UTC)
so is Jefferson ever coming back or what? I liked him.
fwee_prower 2nd-Feb-2013 04:52 pm (UTC)
I am so here for Mulan or August episode.
margerydaw_s2 2nd-Feb-2013 04:55 pm (UTC)
+1

Or maybe a Mulan AND August episode. Yep.
flyingpigs_live 2nd-Feb-2013 05:42 pm (UTC)
August! i forgot about him. ia.
margerydaw_s2 2nd-Feb-2013 04:54 pm (UTC)
Bring it on.
newyorkangst 2nd-Feb-2013 05:12 pm (UTC)
I need that Mulan ep
sanditar 2nd-Feb-2013 05:52 pm (UTC)
I'm just going to wait because when I think the show can't get worst the writers really shock me and I'm really hoping Bae≠Neal but knowing how they love characters to have a "surprising connection with someone from StoryBrooke," well I'm not too hopeful.
pink_lynz 2nd-Feb-2013 05:54 pm (UTC)
Ugh. I still love this show but a lot of the characters are starting to really annoy me this season. All I care about now is Mulan, Hook, Rumple and Cora's sassy attitude.
