i'm a bitch walking down the street [Isobel: HBIC picspam]
Isobel was introduced as Elena's birth mother who gave her up for the Gilberts to adopt. She was also Alaric's "dead" wife. She's a vampire now.
Yeah, yeah, she's a bad mother, bad person, selfish, mean, greedy, childish, etc. But I love this fierce bitch. And here's a picspam why!
This woman is a HBIC.
Hello, Ric.
Alaric: You want me... to deliver a message... for you.
Isobel: Yeah.
Alaric: Screw you. You selfish bitch.
At first, I hated her. She comes off so cold and calculating and horrible and I was all, "BITCH! STOP HURTING MY BABY, ALARIC!"
You better tell Elena that I want to meet or I'm gonna start killing the citizens of this town one by one and I'm going to start with your history students. Got it?
Isobel: You're late.
John: I didn't realize I was on a schedule. What's with the sideshow?
Isobel: Cherie is a little jazz singer that I picked up in blues bar in Brooklyn and I got the cowboy at a gay rodeo in Amarillo.
John: He's gay...
Isobel: Not right now. He's very good to me.
Isobel: Ohhh, I can smell the judgement coming off of you.
Elena: Who's my father?
Isobel: Not important. He was a teenage waste of space.
Elena: A name would be nice.
Isobel: It would, wouldn't it? You ask a lot of questions.
You and your boyfriend over there by the pool table? Stefan Salvatore. Why Stefan? Why didn't you go for Damon? Or do you enjoy them both. Like Katherine did.
Okay, I'll be honest - I thought she would be more human when it came to her daughter but nope. And honestly? That's kind of really fierce. BITCH.
Damon: You blew into town, saw everyone except the man who made you, I'm a little hurt.
Isobel: I'm so sorry... *grabs him by his hair* Did you bring the device?
Damon: Ow.
We both know that you can't control Katherine. She does what she wants
Damon: And so do I.
Isobel: Oh really, Damon; you do? What should we do now? *laughs* Oh yeah, memory serves.
Yeah, Isobel and Damon are kind of hot together. Also, you're totally in love with her daughter, Damon, baby. And she can see it.
Then there's this great scene when Isobel basically terrorizes the helpless little people in Elena's life but for some reason... I have no caps for that. Then she has Jer kidnapped. Awesome.
John: What the hell are you doing?
Isobel: Getting what I want.
John: Yeah, well, he's my nephew. And you're gonna let him go right this second.
Isobel: That gaudy ring on your finger, it comes off.
John: Come on. Come on, Isobel. I - I - I know you, 'kay? It's me, John. You can't hurt a kid.
Isobel: I'll kill him to prove you wrong.
Isobel: hotter than you when sentencing people to death since 2005. And I may ship John/Isobel a little bit. Just because of how he's kind of weirdly hopelessly devoted to her and she treats him like a punching bag.
Don't look for any redeeming qualities in me. I don't have any.
'cause he's in love with you.
Goodbye, Elena. As long as you have a Salvatore on each arm, you're doomed. Katherine was smart. She got out.
But we all know that you're not Katherine.
This totally cemented my love of her bitchiness. She totes just called Damon out on being in love with his brother's girlfriend like she didn't even give a shit. And honestly? She probably doesn't really care all that much that she just ruined whatever friendship was building between Damon and Stefan. And then - then she plays the Katherine card. Ho-ly shit. That's a bitch move. I LOVE IT.
Isobel: I'm leaving. I just... thought I'd say goodbye.
Alaric: You could be bothered the first time so... why now?
Isobel: You hate me. Good.
I wanted this. I needed this. And I'm gonna regret it forever. This was my mistake, not yours. You are not gonna remember this: I loved you. I did. And when I think about what I gave up, it hurts. But now, your heart's free of me. It's easier this way. Goodbye, Ric.
And this is when I really loved Isobel. She's a fierce bitch to the people she loves but when it comes down to it? She loves them still. And her humanity is not completely gone. She's like... a young Damon. Destructive, having fun, but still steadfastedly loyal to the person she loves the most. ...yeah, I ship them in a demented way too.
...and then she's right back to being a bitch and ordering the execution of Damon and Stefan. Hot Momma who kills. Niiiice. (Gratuitous shot of David Anders.)
End!
