So he just moved on or something. If this is true, Rumple's offer to turn him back as a child would make sense that he got disgusted. Thoughts? :D Wouldn't really fit with the character of Peter Pan, though. Even after meeting Wendy, and having all the Lost Boys leave Neverland to get adopted, Peter still couldn't give up being young. It's more than likely that Neal is a Lost Boy... and I'm totally okay with that, but I would be very disappointed if they made him Peter Pan. It doesn't do justice to the character.
