Consent in Once Upon a tIme doesn't exist because this is technically abuse as well as sex without consent because she was essentially drugges (funny that they treat magic like a drug addiction too).

Cool that Arthur basically drugged I assume the whole kingdom because how else would he explain clothes coming out of nowehere and no need to build a castle. But Once needs to stop with its Strong Woman and morality works this way when apparently a villain never takes no for an answer.

Bet they will say that Gwen really did agree to havin tacos with Arthur and that they just have a troubled relationship.

(Psst, Cora totally should had some of this dust and Rumple could have used some too and his problemns would have been solved, but I guess then you'd know it is an illsion and that would haunt you forever). Well, Guinevere still loved him. That's why she had to leave, 'cause she couldn't bear to see him becoming less and less like the man she loved. The sand only made their problems disappear, it didn't create love where there wasn't any.

So yeah, it's technically magical rape, but it's not really as bad as Zelena or Regina's experiences with the subject. Right. I creates an illusion of fixing things. It fixed their relationship by making it appear as if nothing was wrong (or something like that). She loved him for whatever reasona dn was going to leave until magical sands of Avalon (which is either the realm Rumple had the dagger or whatever.

So, so far we got control, fraud, and drugged all in the form of illusory magic. Neato! (not for the critics and others when it gets glossed over and she chooses him in the end). Avalon is, according to Arthurian legend, where the corpses of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table lay until the world needs them again. Sort of like the original Avengers lol

So it's probably not the little jungle world where Snow had her vision and Rumple kept his Dagger (at least now we know where it was all those centuries)
