Share your ending! What do you think the ending of Fables 150 will be?
With the finale of Fables coming to us soon, I think it would be fun to see what our interpretations of the ending will be.
You could give just the big finale or the entire plot of the last issue, whatever works best for you
Here is mine (it's my interpretation of the entire issue):
Snow goes inside Wolf Manor and discovers that the Cubs are gone, but Bigby is destroying the place. He is apparently having a mental battle as he keeps yelling "I don't love you!" and "I won't kill her!" So he is resisting Rose's commands basically. He see's Snow and she is frozen in place at seeing Bigby the way he is.
Bigby regains enough of himself from seeing Snow to tell her about Rose's control over him; Rose is furious that Bigby is resisting her and has told Snow the truth about his feral nature. She removes the ring and destroys it, Bigby is now dying and Snow cradles him in her arms.
Bigby and Snow reconcile before he 'dies' and she gives him a 'last kiss', but true love's kiss revives Bigby instead. A while later, Brandish has replaced Lancelot as Rose's second-in-command and he arrests Bigby for murdering Thrushbeard, Ozma and Beast. Bigby demands a trial by combat against Brandish, but he refuses as he has won before and cannot be killed.
Snow promises Brandish that if he wins, then she will be everything that he wants from her; Brandish accepts the trial. During the trial however, Bigby remains calm and in a human form, due to this he is a lot quicker and manages to attack Brandish. While the trial is going on, Grimble finds Brandish's heart and brings it back to Snow.
She stabs the heart and Brandish dies. After more stuff happens (like Geppetto being dealt with and Cindy assassinating Frau) Snow and Rose get their forces ready for battle, but decide against a full-scale war as the conflict is between them and them alone.
Snow and Rose have a one-on-one fight, at first they are on equal ground, but Snow gains the upper hand by being the better swordsman. Rose changes tactics by using her magic to injure Snow and put her at her mercy. Rose proclaims to Snow and everyone else "I win" and stabs herself.
Rose explains her reasons by pointing out that Snow has a husband that loves her and kids to raise, while Rose is the one who was truly alone all this time. In the aftermath of the battle, it is revealed that the Mundy Government is in NY looking for Castle Dark.
So the Fables now have to make a choice: Relocate to a new city or return to the Homelands. Most of the Fables return to their Homelands but some choose to stay in the Mundy world as they have come to call it their home.
Snow and the Cubs want to live in the Homelands, but Bigby wants to stay alone in the Mundy world as punishment for the Fables he killed. Snow fails to convince him to come with so she tearfully rejects him; the Cubs then stop Bigby from leaving and berate him for his cowardice etc. They point out finally that when they have all left home, Snow will be alone again. Bigby realises his error and goes to Snow, she tries to push him away but eventually returns his affections and they rekindle their passion for one another.
We flash forward through events such as Ambrose marrying Lake etc. Then we come to Rose in the Afterlife; she is greeted by her Mother and she takes Rose to her new life. This turns out to be the same universe that Boy Blue is in.
This leads seamlessly into the Last Story of Boy Blue in which he reveals what he has accomplished in his new life (including finding love with someone) he tells Rose that he will be able to forgive her mistakes in time and that he wants to be her friend again. Rose accepts the offer.
The big finale is a book titled 'Fables' being closed and an off-screen person says "And they lived Happily Ever After, The End"
So what do you think??

I am not caught Up with the comics yet... But I guess that's pretty cool.
Sorry
It 'works' I guess...
I think It's pretty cool, I'm only on Issue 15, So I can't say much, But that's some damn fine writing there My friend.
Why thank you!
I happen to write fanfictions for both TWAU and Fables, been doing it for several months now actually...
Issue 15... Yeah the good stuff will happen soon. Then it changes from going up and down :P
A large amount makes sense except one part.
Bigby would rather go back to the Homelands (he constantly said this to Snow), but he would want to decide where and he chooses Snow's childhood home in the woods.
Bigby can do more than just tell Snow that Rose is controlling him. He would probably tell Snow her family's curse.
Good points as always...
Thanks
Wow, you've obviously put a lot of thought into this - I wouldn't have thought of a lot of what you've mentioned.
That being said, which Fables would you say will be staying in the Mundy world in your ending? While Reynard is likely to be staying in Mundy world due to Meghan and their Baby (though I guess it is possible they could go and live in homeland, with occasional visits to mundy world to see Meghan's relatives), even he is not 100% confirmed...
Thanks man, this sort of stuff is running through my head 24/7 (can never stop thinking about Fables)
That part I hadn't given much thought to
I guess the Fables that don't have anything to go home to...
Another idea I had for the ending was:
Rose doesn't kill herself, but she throws down her sword and walks off. She returns with the news of the Mundies looking for Fabletown. When the Fables are given the choice, Rose plans on going 'as far away from Snow as possible' and states that if she and Snow meet again then 'one will have to die'
But that wouldn't work, the cycle must go on.
Any last scene of Bigby and Snow? Your ending states Snow and Bigby rekindling their passion, but doesn't state any further.
So basically Bigby returns to Homelands with Snow and Cubs, and live happily ever after (while also being present at Ambrose's wedding)?
It would be nice if Darien could make an appearance as well (even though he is dead).
I guess after Bigby is restored, he and Snow embrace and possibly kiss more, but go to looking for the Cubs.
Later, Bigby finds Snow in her room in Castle Dark, she is still crying whilst packing what she had there. She gives him a hateful glare and Bigby sheepishly walks over to her.
Snow says "What? Did you forget something?"
Bigby says "Yes" and pulls Snow in for a kiss, but she shoves him away (possibly slaps him as well) saying things like how she doesn't need him and that she can find someone else. Bigby continues to kiss her however and slowly, Snow pulls him in as well as her tears turn to ones of happiness. They proceed to do the deed as they tell each other "I love you".
Afterwards, the 2 make a promise to never leave each other again.
Present at the wedding: Yes, and Darien could be watching from his new life
Throughout the comics, we never actually get to see what Ghost looks like, because we always see him through the eyes of the living (either his siblings, or Snow and Bigby). It would be cool if Darien's ghost can actually see Ghost (i.e. his true appearance, not just gust or wind strokes seen until now) and go "Wow!"
That would be a neat treat (though I'm kinda doubting this will happen since Willingham has so much on his plate right now).
I think it's nicer for Ghost to remain a mystery, he probably looks like Mistral when he was Mr North's servant
As long as Rose Red and Brandish die, I will be happy with issue 150.
That sounds fine with me
FuckRoseAndBrandish
What do ya think of my dream ending to Fables, man?
My two most hated characters in Fables, after Jack Horner (who always take #1 spot as most hated character).
Jack joins in and they can form a trinity hahaha.....
The Trinity of Hate lol
Totally Agree.
My most hated characters:
1: Jack Horner
2: Brandish
3: Rose Red
Jack is thankfully already dead, now, when Brandish and Rose Red hit the dirt, I'll be all smiles.
I shall join you and raise a glass to their joint demise!!
KeepHating
jack for life ;3
I dont think Snow will reject Bigby. If Bigby is fixed, and snow is ok, Im sure they will be happy
But I said that Bigby wants to leave again cuz of his actions, but the Cubs help him realise that Snow doesn't care: She just wants to be with him for the rest of her life!
Yeah I know, I just mean I dont think she ever will reject him, and they will just get back together :P
That must be such a weird thing for everyone else though:
"Your husband has killed 3 Fables and countless Mundies... and you STILL love him all the same?!"
Yes she does, Snow and Bigby are each others forever!
Well honestly, fuck everyone who blames Bigby for killing those Fables, it wasnt his fault
I just want Snow to kick Rose Red's ass! Hate Rose Red!
But it's very easy to say it was the doing of someone else...
This is Bigby we are talking about
But enough on that, Bigg's will survive and live out his days with Snow. He has to!
Dragon loves Rose :P
I want Rose dead for what she is doing, but Snow must be the one to kill her, it's only right...
He does and I'm sorry a thousand times, Dragon. Don't hate me but....
I never did like her. She had her moments early on but as the issue continued, I despised her character more and more. I just want Snow to take Rose by her throat and give her to Bigby and let HIM deal with her....>:D
Nah, Snow should kill Rose, it's the best way...
Bigby can annihilate Brandish until someone stabs his heart :P
I still have quite a lot to read in order to see whatever Rose Red did that made the majority hate her. :S
But for now, I'll be one of those people that'll love her no matter what. XP
You just made an enemy today, JJ.
(Just kidding! But as I said to Hazza though, I still have a lot to catch up on to see whatever made people hate Rose so much. :P)
OH! Watch out, JJ! -dodges fire from Dragon-
JK. XD I never hated Rose Red. I just don't like how she's been acting these last view issues, ESPECIALLY now.
Me to Rose and Snow
But honestly, I think Rose will perish because of this. I would LOVE to see Snow turn Bigby on her ass! >:D
YES. Rose can think that her plan to control Bigby works but it really just bites her in the ass...literally xD
What issue are you at currently? ;o
anyone think grimble will be returned to normal?
I hope so. Grimble is love. Grimble is life.
whats he looking for anyway?
