hello my lovelies, are we ready?

→ Been having a rough couple of days. Shitty stuff going down at work. Won't talk about it, except to say that the crazies are out to get me. This is what I get for being an honest person. Maybe I should give it up. This fueled my determination when I later applied for a job in my dream town, but the odds are not exactly in my favor.

I really can't process all that's happened. You have an amazing, thoughtful post and I can't answer it.

But I will say - I will forever love Uncle Daddy John Sark. I will rewatch every episode and love him.

Haha, yeah I feel like it's just one big boring re-cap, lol. But there are a few thoughts sprinkled throughout.

Yes. I really wanted him to live. I also think, one thing I didn't like about the ep was how he died, out in the sunshine, on his feet like that. I kind of wanted him to crawl into some dark corner of that house and be hyperventilating, waiting to die all on his own. And then for the camera to come back to him later, after it happened. Actually seeing him collapse was not as effective as I think they think it was lol.

I really expected John to live. I had a feeling Jenna wouldn't make it, so I thought John would become the guardian. But now Elena & Jer are alone. Who will watch them? Alaric?

IDK if I could see John as the type to hyperventilate, though? He always came across as strong to me, and I guess he went out as a hero. It's sad that Elena didn't get to have a meaningful conversation with him, though.

I guess I just meant "breathing hard" either from fear or actual physical pain, we would never really know. We could imagine both.

Alaric seems like a logical choice given his known relationship with Jenna, but I wonder if maybe they will just skip over the tiny detail or have Elena and Jeremy emancipated or something. There could be compulsion involved? I mean, Elena owns two homes now, lol. She could be emancipated.

I.. am not sure how I feel about that actually.
