HEY GUYS. So apparently, we created this blog four years ago?? Which is insane! And also we’re still bitter about neal! Which is also insane but very predictable! Anyway!! Haley and I were actually together this weekend for the first time in two years, so obviously we half-assed vlogged in the car. This is like zero percent substance and 100 percent us yelling about neal cassidy in matching princess leia sweatshirts but! happy four year anniversary, neal blog!

Neal Cassidy is so important because he was a fucking puppy who deserved better.

honestly this is categorically true, i can’t tell the difference between any photo of neal cassidy and any sad puppy??? can’t argue with SCIENCE and COLD HARD FACTS.

--Christina but i’m pretty sure Haley agrees

[nealcassidyissoimportant]

Neal Cassidy is so important because the portrayal of Emma and Neal in the Queen is Dead, just one episode after they saw each other for the first time in 11 years, makes clear that each of their priority is their son.

[nealcassidyissoimportant]

Neal Cassidy is so important because the flashbacks in Tallahassee actively portrayed him and Emma as equal partners, pairing the initial car scene where he gets them out of trouble with cop with the convienence store scene where she provides their way out.

[nealcassidyissoimportant]

Neal Cassidy is so important to the initial concept of the show, the New York arc in season 2 was the payoff of multiple plot points set up through out the first season and a half of the show. The reveal of Henry’s father and Rumplestilskin’s son tied together the loose ends of the initial curse. 

[nealcassidyissoimportant]

Neal Cassidy is so important to the story structure of OUAT because a major theme of his relationship with Emma was the concept of home, which has also been a major recurring theme in the show since the pilot. 

[nealcassidyissoimportant]

Neal Cassidy is so important because even in the wish realm, he’s still Henry’s father, a hero, and Emma’s love. 

[nealcassidyissoimportant]

Neal Cassidy is so important to the show’s concept of true love because despite the manipulations and machinations around the curse, he and Emma met organically-- their own destiny interfering with the one created by the curse.
