Returning to this thread after a couple of days and my oh my everyone's ideas are SO GOOD! We should all be writers for the show, honestly.

I figure I should probably put my ideas out there too, just so I don't go crazy before fall. Gotta keep those creative juices flowin', amirite?

I defintely think Hook would be much more cowardly and reclusive. I imagine him as a clean shaven, rich brainiac with glasses (so a totally different look) who works some sort of science-y job, but is absolutely miserable and alone. He doesn't have any family or friends and just lives in his swanky modern house, working on some secret project. He's rejected by every woman he meets, and was married once to his high school sweetheart, who eventually revealed she only married him for his money and then ran off with a big bucks Hollywood producer (obviously this would be the cursed persona of Emma, who is really either dead or locked in some hospital somewhere). He's bullied by the mayor of the town (Gold, as I think Fiona would have wanted her son to be successful and powerful even if they had their issues) due to Hook at one point being in love with Gold's deceased wife (well, deceased first wife). I would love to see Colin play a coward, since we barely got to see his potential in that area during the AU episode. I also like VulonNight's idea of him being super sleazy and self-absorbed, which is pretty opposite to my theory, so I don't think the writers can really go wrong whatever direction they take.

I don't really have too many other theories about Regina, Gold or any other characters as of now but my opinions and thoughts are changing daily, and will obviously start changing a lot once more spoilers start coming out.

Keep the ideas coming!
