Not for Aurora, as we see her in the s3 finale. NOTHING F*CKING CHANGED ABOUT HER -or Phillip- BECAUSE THE DARK CURSE. HOW CAN YOU EVEN KEEP SAYING SHE WAS CURSED??? Unless it was shown that flying monkeys (i.e., Phillip and Aurora) were transported to Storybrooke by some other means besides the Dark Curse, then it's a reasonable, educated guess that they are in town because of the curse. Yes, their clothing did not change like everybody else, but at the same time, there was no mention that they were brought to Storybrooke through any other methods besides Snow White enacting the Dark Curse.

P.S. Please refrain from any foul or offensive language on this wiki. I'm not saying I was innocent of doing something like that before in one of my past comments...back when I was a bit of a pessimistic teenager...but in the end, it's not a kind way to make your point clear. On a side note, we must not forget that this is a TV show. If the writers want to imply something, they SHOW it or HINT at it somehow. The Dark Curse transporting everyone from FTL to the LWM was shown and established several times. The Flying Monkeys coming along in a different way was neither shown nor hinted at by any line of dialogue or such. There's no reason to believe Zelena used any other means of trasnportation for herself or the monkeys.

Again, she sent Walsh to our world before the curse. So it has been implied that the monkeys exclusively could reach another world without needing the dark curse.

Second point: she did not turn A&P into monkeys again after the curse hit. Why? Because it would imply that they've been affected by it, which it would have been showed/hinted when they turn back into their human form, and that's not the case.


 * Aurora kept her cape, her crown and even her haircut from "A Curious Thing" until the season finale;
 * She did not get her own home, nor new clothing ↑, nor a minimal knowledge about the customs of our world. Robin lived all the time in a camp in the woods, I'm not surprised he didn't guess what was a decorated bottle of whiskey, but his Merry Men knew how to press a trigger.
 * It would have been hinted if she had lost her memories. Surprise, it's never been the case either! :D
