I would love to have Romeo & Juliet in the show. Some ideas could be that they had a child that is also a product of true love and could be a rival of Emma's. Hmm... glad you weren't referring to Henry. There've been confusions among the fans on my end. To clarify-- Emma the Savior was the production of True Love, right? And Henry the Oracle was the product of Light and Darkness.

And yes - another offspring of another perfectly true love, I agree-- but not necessarily has to become a rival - at least doesn't seem like much of one for Emma.

Truth be told, I just kinda love seeing Emma picking her brain trying to dissolve the feud between the Montagues and Capulets while saving the lives of the two children at the same time (I mean, c'mon - there's no way she doesn't know how the story goes, right?).

Okay. Here goes:

Try to picture both families' patriarchs take the fight out to the street, with Emma, Hook, David, Mary, Regina and some other Storybrooke Avengers on patrol.

Now picture Romeo and Juliet trying their hardest to pull them apart.

Now picture Emma firing her gun into the air and shouts the badass words I used upstairs.

Now picture this happens thrice every two hours, only rests deep into the night.

I was right, no? Emma would have an entire field YEAR(!) with these guys.

I donno about you guys but I'm totally rooting for a Romeo-and-Juliet side story in Once. About bloody time someone put a good enough ending to this well-known tragedy. Both kids deserve it. I agree with all of this. Another good theory I had that I mention about Emma's "rival" is that maybe Romeo and Juliet's story happened long ago, and their child (who was born of true love) turned out to be evil (like Pan and Zelena) and hates Emma for being the "savior", stealing their birthright and maybe was the original "savior" for Rumple to use, or some other reason, and is also extremely powerful due to being the result of true love. I was also hoping for other stories like Hamlet and Macbeth.
