Belle: I can't believe you assassinated the King!
Rumple: Well, 'assassinated' implies it was politically motivated. I killed him because he was a dick, so technically I murdered him
Belle: That's not better!

From strands of your parents’ hair, I made the most powerful potion in all the realm. So powerful, that when I created the dark curse, I placed a single drop on the parchment. Just a little safety valve.

Rumple: Don't worry, I have a few knives up my sleeve.
Belle: I think you mean cards.
Rumple, pulling knives out of his sleeves: No, I do not.

“Belle..?”
Hearing that voice, the adventurer froze mid toast. Her companions, looking up at the figure behind her which she herself couldn't see, reached for their weapons almost on instinct. Of course, this was to no avail as they stiffened seemingly on command – it was on command.
Belle turned slowly, looking up at the beast she'd had to leave behind – a chapter of her life she'd left behind, hand raised to keep her companions docile. She'd pictured seeing him again many times before, but never in a million years had she imagined to see tears in his eyes.
She swallowed, letting out the softest of breaths, a breath with which his name should never be accompanied.
“Rumpelstiltskin.”
It happened on instinct, but it became proof that only she could get away with punching the Dark One in the jaw.
