Well, you ship that terribe Captain Swan (I'm joking!). I know of a few neeal lovers and even they don;t want him come back because they are just waving in front of those shippers and fans "Hey, guess what you don't have!" Probably have a dreamcatcher scene with Emma and Hook and then the Swanfire shippers will cry and I will berate, not because I like Neal (I disliked him), but because that's unnecessarily cruel.

Or maybe they regret killing off Neal or think all the petty things they do cover up for it. Yep, that's why they named the baby Neal, used Neal's apartment, mention Neal every half seasonal arc, still have flashbacks. It's because if they know if they wipe him from history books of viewers, then they would get a huge backlash. Now, they try to sneak in a little here or there.

I know why Rumple is evil (even if he doesn't know what they are doing) I think it's just how the writers just toss around the character and try to wipe him out of history. Or rather push him into the "old news" category.

Neal won't be ressurected but they just need to drop it. Neal being brought up reminds me of how Rumple's character has been butchered., how shallow CS seems (yes, they won a shallow vitory), and how the writers seem to not be able to write something without bringing back the past up in convo or elsewhere.

Writers' head

"Oh, did you know that the Queen is Evil? Yeah, let's remind that to the viewers and have her do something really evil."

"Hey, don't forget she's chaged too! Yeah, let's just give her a crying scene or something."

"On what? I guess Robin. Oh yeah, they are soulmate-I mean True Love's or something like that."

"Let's bring up Neal again to show how strong Emma and Neal's relationship was to validate and show how strong Hook's is."

Oncer fan: "Excuse me? That makes no sense."

Adam and Eddy: "Of course it does! Some thing happened offscreen and it'll be mentioned later, like Snow and Charming sharing a heart. Yep, remember that? Because we didn't!"
