So. Um. Caught up on Once Upon a Time.
The question I have shouldn't be completely spoilery, but discussion of it probably will be; ware comments if you're not caught up.

Does that count as fridging? I'm going with yes. (I'm also sticking my fingers in my ears and going LA LA LA NOPE, but that's another story.)

If you count death of personality as death, then I'd say yes.

Both Hook and the writers completely did that for the sake of Rumpel's manpain. No argument there whatsoever. I just think there are philosophical questions as to whether or not what happened constitutes death, per se. But based on all available evidence? I think it's reasonable to say that Belle was fridged.

It totally is. Bah. I do not grok the Belle/Rumplestiltskin storyline one bit, and this makes me angreee. ANGREEE.

I do trust the show to show us one thing that absolutely cannot be undone and then set about undoing it, so I don't doubt that they'll give Belle back her memories. But still, it was icky and cheap and they can do better by her.

I nurture a tiny hope that Mulan will come rescue her and take her to the awesome lady place in fairyland with Aurora, but it is a tiny and improbable hope that exists only in my mind.
