I Dreamed That God Would Be Forgiving

[redbrunja]

Someone on tumblr mentioned that an unpopular Once Upon A Time opinion they held was that
they did not want Belle to remember her fairy tale past. And to be honest, I completely agree. What I passionately want to see (or read) is Mr Gold trying to stay away from Belle "for her own good" but not being able to... and then, because he does know who she is and what she likes, he ends up using that prior knowledge to woo/befriend her again. So we get the deliciousness of that whole set-up PLUS the angst of Belle finally remembering her past, after she's already in a relationship with Mr Gold. Come on, guys, you know that would be ridiculously awesome. (And by awesome, I mean deliciously angsty.)

I have to admit I find that prospect very disturbing, and I don't know that the show has gone dark enough to get there yet. It'd be interesting if they went that route though.

To be honest, we know the show kind of hates going dark... that's what fanfic is for, I suppose...
