So we were discussing Rumple's fate another thread so I brought that ish here.

Personally I think Rumple needs to die somehow (he's a villain and villains never win). Either by karma in which one of his long cons backfires on him, which would be fitting given how he ruined people's lives through long cons and deals, or by having one of his victims kill him; I would prefer Belle because she is arguably the person who suffered most at his hand, but Killian would do to bring their story full circle. Or Killian and Belle; teamwork makes the dreamwork after all. But I feel like the former would be better because I do not believe Rumpelstiltksin is a guy who can be simply brought down by a hero. Plus it would be a good callback to the theme in season 1 where he was only destroying himself by using so much darkness.

What do you think his fate should/will be?
