Where will season 2 take place? Our world or Fantasyland back to lumber stoves?

I'm thinking that because Rumple created the curse for his ultimate agenda to find his son, and we have seen he was able to manipulate it to his designs, he was somehow able to make them be transported to the world and time where Bae was. After all, it's magic, so I'm sure they will have some "magic" explanation of how this was possible.

I cannot wait for Season 2 and on that note Rumpel's curse has to be the most sophisticated and complex curse ever to debut onscreen. I'm making a whole new thread about it because of that. It deserves a whole separate discussion.

I hope it's in the "real" world, because I feel like the premise of this show is fairy-tale characters in the "real" world. While we still have some holes in our timeline, I'd like to see more flashback, and bringing Henry and Emma over to FTL for a visit would also be cool... but I want to keep the characters human and in Storybrooke ^^

btw, I don't think time is linear between FTL and the "real" world. If it was, it's possible Bae is more than 50 years old now, depending on how long it took Rumple to build the curse.

I also think that the real-world's fairy-tales didn't come from FTL... If they did then time really is not linear and Bae is one of the brother's Grimm... but chances are, with the infinate universe idea, our universe is one where we happened to come up with fairy-tale characters hundreds of years ago, that line up with people that existed in the magical world. That being said, I think Storybrooke, Maine's universe, while very close to ours, still has some key difference (starting with they probably don't have a TV show on ABC called "Once Upon a Time"... heh recursion) but I also think they don't have Disney, maybe no ABC... but that's just my opinion

I can't wait for next season!

Wow, this is a great discussion

I think its actually going to be a mix of both. The curse that Rumple enacted clearly is bringing magic back to Storybrook, and I have a feeling that the lines between both worlds are going to become blurred together, that Storybrook will begin to fade into FTL, and things are going to get uber-complicated because of it.

The fact that Regina looks so pleased when she sees the new curse rolling in proves that something crazy is going to happen with it all, because if it wasn't, she'd be pissed. I think to put it back to FTL completely would make things too easy for Regina to take power again. Keeping it at least partially in 'our' reality would make it slightly more difficult for her to be the Big Bad again.

I think it will be more or less what we've seen in season 1: present time in our world, now filled with magic, and flashbacks to FTLand, telling more fairytale stories, and adding some background to people in Storybrook.
One question is still open: does FTLand still exist?

I hope the FTL still exists, I'd hate to see the disappearance of Rumpelstiltskin!! There were photos uploaded onto the OUAT facebook this morning as promo images for season 2, and they were in costume, so I'm pretty certain in some way they'll have a return to FTL

Well it's been a series staple for them to do flashbacks.

So I think it will continue that. But instead of just showing us what they forgot, it will show us what they remember. Maybe even what their last moments before the curse was released.
