I don't think she deserved death. People angry with her for Dreamy and Nova are overreacting. It was Dreamy's choice to take her advice. It was hard watching Nova's heart break, but we do know she was willing to give up a lifetime dream to runaway with a guy she'd just met. The whole thing seemed crazy to me. Would you let someone you care about run off and throw away everything on a whim without trying to give them advise? I wouldn't!

As for how she treats Tinker Bell, remember, she has a job to do and Tink repeatedly broke rules. What would your boss do if you broke rules at your job, even with good intentions in mind?

With Rumple and Baelfire, Bael asked for help with his whole heart and she gave up something precious to give him his wish. Yes, it led to the curse, but it was Rumple's fault. He made the choice not to give up power to be with his son.

I think the people hating on her are failing to see the big picture. Yes, she is stern and often seems cold, but remember all that she's done to help people. Has she ever done one thing that was truly wicked? Even her lie to Snow White and Charming was because she had to lie. Gepetto would have let them all fall under the curse otherwise. There are way too many people trying to rationalize what Regina, Rumple and everyone else do (which is evil) but don't try to put any thought into the greater good the BF does. Why punish someone just because you dislike her character?

With all that said, I hope when Pan's shadow is destroyed it frees (revives) his victims. I hope Tink has a hand in it and gets her wings back.
