Belle French | 30 | Enchanted Forest | Taken

Meet Belle. She is a book-ish young woman who craves knowledge, yet is guided by her heart and what she believes to be morally right. She'll stand up to those around her, but she also tends to be naive and trusts others with somewhat ease. While she's learned to not be quite so naive, and guards her heart a little closer as she's grown older, she still has a bit of a problem with that. However, this is partially because she always sees the best in those around her. Even someone as dark as the Dark One himself had good that she could see, even back when they barely really knew each other.

Friends

---

Belle's a fun soul who tries to make friends with all of those around her.  She is kind and tries to bring smiles to everyone's faces.  However, she does not like immoral behavior, or behavior that causes pain to others.  Basically, she doesn't like villains.  However even with the heroes, there may be some who just don't like her, as she can come off as a little bit snooty/arrogant, the know-it-all type, though she tries hard not to be. 

Enemies

---

Villains.  People who hurt her or the others in Storybrooke.  Her loyalty is ultimately with Rumple even if he can sometimes slip into behaviors she prefers if he were to stop, and so she will be enemies with those who try to hurt her Rumple.  However, due to her accepting nature she'd also try to talk it out with said enemies.  Usually her enemies end up being Rumple's direct enemies due to her association.  Though, not all of them.  Those that underestimate her, don't listen to her even though she knows she's right, things such as that rub her the wrong way. 

Lovers

---

There's only one man for her. There was a little fling with Will Scarlet there for a bit, but that really was nothing. While she might not be happy with her husband's choices sometimes, like right now, she loves him more than anything, and really they just need to work on the whole relationship together. So, really, sorry guys out there, she's taken by her beast.

Rumple & Belle;;
My beloved! I need all the RP. Past, present, AU- I'm game for any and everything. If you want to establish what they've been up to so far, I'm totally all for it! We have the basics (with Belle being pregnant) but there's really not much more than that planned for them yet!We can figure out how she took him telling her that he was the Dark One, as well as how she reacted when he returned with everyone from the underworld. XD

Belle&&Rumple

---

Ah, my dearest Rumple! I am totally up for every single kind of RP, and I quite look forward to it! As I understand, Belle learned of him being the Dark One and I saw a thread with a past Belle where he told her before he left, and I'd hate to make you re-RP it again, but if you want to we can, and as expected she not happy at all, but she wants Rumple to be the man Merlin said could possibly use the power of the Dark One for good. As of right now, he hasn't done anything that I've seen that would really upset her a whole ton, and he even helped the heroes and friends escape from the Underworld, even if some others seeped through. She's probably happy about the whole Neal is back and some of the others who died, though the whole 'the Underworld is attacking' isn't good, its not really Rumple's fault. She's probably a bit stressed out, yet happy that some people are back. If you'd like, we could always RP where ever you would like, when Rumple tells her, when they all come back, or something a little farther into the future to catch up with everything else that's gone on... I'm up for absolutely anything!

Belle French - I could have many plots with you. I do play Anna who Belle and her would get along so well. I know they met before in the past.

I also play Cruella and Tinkerbell. I believe Cruella would love to pay Belle a visit she working with Hades and has a grudge against Rumple.

Belle&&Anna

---

Oh ho, these two should definitely be friends.  Given Anna is visiting Storybrooke to help them out, they should meet up and have a girl's night of a sort, which would be a lot of fun. 

Belle&&Cruella

---

This would be a lot of fun.  While Belle wouldn't be easy to like, take... okay she probably would be, but she wouldn't go without a fight.  A talk between the two could be quite fun, perhaps a few quips and maybe a threat from Cruella or two while Belle retaliates. 

Perhaps Cruella attempts to convince Belle she's turned over a new leaf?  After all, Belle likes to see the best in people, and while she wouldn't be easily convinced, it could lead to some drama down the road. 

Belle&&Tink

---

I could see these two getting along.  They're somewhat different with Tink and her street smarts and Belle with her book smarts.  From her experience, Belle likes the fairies as a general rule, and might try to help them whenever possible also as a sort of apology for her husband sucking some fairies into a magical hat little while ago.  Either Belle or Tink could possible go to the other one, either for help with a problem, or run into each other somewhere, and Belle, being the social butterfly, would try to at least talk to her.  Maybe?  I can't think of much else.

Neal and Belle: these two need some plots. Since they are family now, and, they have one thing in common, Rumple. He did feel somewhat replaced by Belle when he first got to SB but plots between these two could be fun. May be a thread after he returns from the Underworld. I could see Neal seeing out Belle's advice about his father, since she's the only one who knows the other side of him, and, he's confused about some things. Especially when it comes to forgiving him. Anyway that'll be fun to plot out.

Ariel and Belle: these two had an interesting meeting the last time when Ariel went to find Pandora's box. So it could be fun to have them meet again.

Belle French

Belle French and Anna - I could see them being friends for sure. Anna didn't get to see much of Belle before. Anna is currently staying at Grannys Bed and Breakfast. Though I could see them running into each other at the millibar.

Cruella and Belle - Cruella is trying to pretend she has changed with Neal trying to get close to those who she wants revenge on namely Emma, and Rumple and the plans Hades has for them as well. Cruella getting close to Belle would make Rumple uneasy which could cause more drama lie you said down the road.

Tink and Belle - Tink hasn't gotten her wings yet it's something we have set in here. Though she has heard what Rumple has done to the faieries before and has had a run in with him . Tink could run into Belle and maybe they could have a chat and try to get over that fact. Though Tink will wonder why Belle is so forgiving of Rumple though Tink does beleive in everyone getting a happy ending.

I also play glinda as well but I don't know about a plot yet for them . I'll work on something.

Belle&&Neal Cassidy

---

Yay Neal!  I would totally be down for a thread like that.  Given she's still sort of working through the whole he's the Dark One again thing, she's not quite in the 'oh Rumple, you're amazing' and so the discussion between the two could be quite interesting, with the 'how can you forgive him' sorts of things, and it'd probably even help Belle sort through her own thoughts on the matter.

Belle&&Ariel

---

Definitely so!  Once a companion in heroism, always a companion.  It would be cool to have them as friends.  I mean, its not everyday you get tied to a chair together and end up turning your chair companion back into a mermaid to get yourself out it.  Given everything that happened after that, they probably didn't see much of each other, since there was the whole curse thing and Belle was then worried about Rumple then running off to Camelot.  It would be cool to see the two of them get together and have a bit of fun!

Belle&&Cruella De Vil

---

Ah ha, that'd be definitely interesting.  Could cause some drama between Belle and Rumple and Belle insisting that 'everyone deserves a second chance' sort of deal. 

Belle&&Anna

---

True they didn't really get much time before, it'd still be pretty cool for the two of them to really like, get a chance to talk and be friends.  Belle loves making friends.  Given Anna's bubbly personality and Belle's care, the two would make a great team!

Belle&&Tink

---

Hahah, that would be a lot fun, I think, between the two of them.  Ah, Belle's always defending our dear Rumple.  Anyways, it sounds great to me

Neal Casidy and Belle French: it could be a good bonding experience for both of them, since they never really had much of a chance to bond. It's more then just the Dark One stuff. He isn't sure whether letting his father back in would be a good idea, since he already had his heart broken once. And he abandoned him and then made a new family with Belle. Not that he blames Belle of course. But could be fun to work that out.

Ariel and Belle: well I made it after she rescued Hook from drowning she just stayed in town. So I'd love a reunion with these two.

Rumple & Belle;;
I would love something a bit more current! Rumple has been through a lot of HELL and I haven't had a chance to discuss his trials with Belle yet. XD He had his heart taken from him by Zelena in an attempt to trade it for his dagger, though he ended up getting it back and Neal has hold of his dagger as a sign of good faith. He also hurt his leg in a fight with Cora and some underworld monsters and hasn't been able to heal it properly, so he has a limp again, too. >> AND LASTLY, the one she's probably not likely to know about, is that he made a deal with Hades that, should Hades help keep everyone in town safe and stop the trouble with the Underworld, he'd go back to the Underworld with him. >>

So, yes, lots of things for poor Belle. XD XD XD

OH. And rumple has a dog that lives at the store now- it's a doberman named DeSoto. >>

Belle&&Neal Cassidy

---

I certainly look forward to this meeting indeed!  If you would like I could start the thread, or you could.  To clarify for the setting and such, basically Neal's come back with the Underworld and the two sit down to have a talk, family business and such like that.  Perhaps something such as Belle heard of Neal and thus goes to his apartment to say hello and talk?

Belle&&Ariel

---

Thread-wise, perhaps Belle could feel like she is in need of a friend to talk to, with all that is going on and spots Ariel down by the sea, and runs to say hello and they go from there? 

Belle&&Rumplestiltskin

---

Oh dear, we are in trouble. 

 I have a feeling how Belle will react to that deal, but we'll see.  Ah, Her Handsome Hero and his sacrifices...  Perhaps we could have a thread where they finally get a chance for peace and quiet.  During the whole time I would suppose Belle's mostly been as she was in the show, mostly in the background though highly worried and trying to take care of herself due to the pregnancy, but she'd probably know at least about some of that which went on heart-wise, and limp-wise. 

A heart to heart sort of thread is what I imagine.  A slow down and finally a chance to talk with one another. 

 

Rumple & Belle;;
Yessss. I think that would be just dandy! Perhaps they haven't seen much of each other recently and it could be quite the emotional little thread just to have them together again. xD I know poor Rumple can't go a thread without thinking about her in some regard. >>

Belle&&Rumplestiltskin

---

I think that sounds wonderful!  I can't say much about Belle getting through a thread without thinking of Rumple... yet.  However, I would imagine something similar with her.  A moment's silence, and finally they can be reunited, and have a talk they really need to have, Belle comforting Rumple with all the stuff he's had to go through, and such.  But also not happy because they haven't been able to just be together.  It'll be a nice mixture of emotions.  How would you like to set this wonderful thread?

Rumple & Belle;;
I imagine it could just be him coming home finally. XD He's probably been in avoidance mode, especially while missing his heart and after he made the deal -so much guilt-. I'm sure he's kept in touch with her, but they probably haven't SEEN one another in quite a while. >>

Neal and Belle French: yeah I'm all for that. They haven't really spent time together since the missing year. It'll be fun to actually just have a thread of them getting to know each other on some level, and, talking about that stuff. I'm all for you starting this, or I can start it when I get home either works for me. I look forward to threading with you.

Ariel and Belle: that sounds like a great idea to me. Whichever one you don't start I can start the other.
