OP

I'm mostly terrified of her as a person, and I hate especially what she did to Regina, but as a character I madly adore her and I absolutely loved the story she and Rumple had. It was so very ... Shakespearean tragedy? They loved each other, they genuinely did, enough that he amended a deal for her and enough that she teetered on the brink of running away with him and sacrificing everything she'd worked for, but then fear and ruthlessness and politics intervened, and she felt more need for power than the uncertainty of loving someone who could be used against her. So she ripped her own heart out. If nothing else, you've got to be awed by the nerve that takes. Whatever the hell else you say about the woman, she was goddamn impressive.

It's one of those grand tragedies that leaves scarred and broken hearts behind it for true love to heal, and I've never understood why (yes) Rumbelle shippers in particular want to erase it, erase her, when it doesn't even threaten their ship. It arguably even enhances it. I mean, it explains so much about Rumple, about why Belle's more or less every action kept confusing him and scaring him, why he kept coming back to her anyway. With the contrast of the dark and passionate love he had for Cora, you can see why the gentler, more pervasive love he has for Belle simultaneously scares and attracts him.

So yeah, I don't get it. I find 'I loved and was broken for it, but you gave me hope to love again' much more compelling than 'I never loved anyone until I met you'. The latter seems too fragile, like it will be gone the minute the illusions are gone, but the latter has already known hardship and killing tragedy. When one of your characters is a 300 year old demonic sorcerer who's been through so much he's barely recognisable anymore, you're going to need something a little stronger than a dream of first love that he's already seen smashed so many times.
