I agree (mostly - I don't hate that she's back because I love me some angst as long as it ends the way I want it to!). Their reunion was as adorable as it was heartbreaking to watch, but it was also a "surprise of the moment" thing and doesn't necessarily reflect where their hearts will be when things settle. Plus, on a show that loves to tweak with what we "know" about fairy tales, there's no reason a couple HAS to end up together, even if they ARE Robin Hood and Maid Marian.

To borrow an idea from a fanfic someone I know is toying with, perhaps the "best solution" would be for seriously bad shit to start happening as a consequence of Marian being in the wrong time, and she volunteers to return to set the world right again.

So you want a Disney/fairy tale character to kill themselves to solve narrative problems?

When did I say that? Returning to the past wouldn't be an automatic death sentence. Even if it would require a heroic sacrifice on Marian's part, it doesn't mean she'd be deposited right back in that cell. I also disagree with labeling this storyline a narrative problem.

And again, the whole point of this show is to change what we think we know about Disney/fairy tale characters. We shouldn't expect their destinies to be the exact same or necessarily the happiest possible. I want to see the writers doing interesting and surprising things with these characters, not treating them as untouchable and precious solely because they're based on fairy tales/legends.
