Regina is an incredibly complicated character. I think most everything that has been said is true in one form or another about her. She is a hero now, but she is also impatient and quick to lose hope. She does often look for people to blame, but I think that the story about the Author may be different because it might actually be true. Most of the time, she is just looking for a quick fix. If she kicks Emma out of town, then Henry will be her's again... for example. This time around, it may acutally be that some unknown force is keeping her from her happy ending. Before she walked away, but now, she has done everything 'right' and still lost out on her true love. As far as her happiness with Henry is concerned, I think that she made it clear when they were in the EF. She said that she could not live without Henry. I have been more and more ready for her to just flip the switch from weepy to kickass as the first part of the season went on. I am hoping this second half is her fighting for her happy ending rather than feeling sorry for herself. With that being said, I think she could live without Robin Hood. She could be satisfied and happy with Henry, but there is a fullness that would be missing without Robin there. She has never said she could not live without him, and she has proven more than once that she was willing to. I think she is just looking to have it all, and who could blame her for that?
