Hey Guys,
this is a pairing you have to talk about, when you want to talk about Once upon a time. They have really sweet scenes but i don’t care much about them. But let’s just start.

Belle

Belle is a sweet character. Many people can identify with her. She loves to read and dreams about traveling and adventures. She has big dreams. Also she sees the good people, even in people that seems to be a lost curse, like Rumple. She is naive and stubborn. She has such a believe in Rumple it seems nearly impossible. But with her way of seeing things, she found a way in Rumples heart. He would never admit it.

Power over love?

She wants to break his curse with true love kiss. This is when he decided to send her away. Because he doesn’t want to lose his power – he can’t lose his power. The first thing that stand in the way of there happiness is not the power it is plan to finding his son. He loves Belle and he would nearly do everything for her, but he can’t give up on his son not even for her.
I love how his son and Belle brings him to give up on his power and his fear about death. He knows that Henry will be the death of him. But he never wanted to hurt him. He wanted to bring him back to his son.

Father and Son

We get to know Rumples father. His father left him for youth and power. He did the same mistakes his father did. The are really simular, but they have a big differents. Rumple really cares about his son and about Belle. He don’t want to disapoint them again. That is way the relationship is so important on that show. You can change if you want. In the end Rumple sacrifieced himself. That is such an important character developement.

Everything is fine

When they bring Rumple back they let Rumple trumple and he lied to Belle. He gave her the wrong dagger and he married her. This is like he falls back to old behavier but it was okay and he goes and talk with his son and decided that he don’t want that. He don’t want marriage with Belle built on a lie.
Than the show did something i really hate, because they take every developement away from him. He decided that power is more important than Belle. The one that told Regina she can’t have her happy ending and her revenge. Is now doing the same. He is working dark plans and manipulate people into working with him.

Consequence

How much i hate to take that developement from him it also brings Belle to a point she needs to grow up. She decided that she can’t be with someone like that. She let him feel the consequences and maybe now we will see Belle really to something else than just believing in him. That is the only thing that every was wrong about the relationship, everytime he let her behind and she waited for him.
