Has anyone been discussing the fact that Damon essentially invited Elena to witness his partial involvement in a mass murder? OMG IKR. CRYING.
So he's basically calling Elena's bluff. She says she loves him, that she doesn't care about the sire bond, that she can handle everything that he is. So he's going to make her confron everything hat he is. I thought this too. I don't think he's trying to sabotage their relationship or anything like that (lol, and I see you say that a little ways down), but I think his telling her to come to him had more than one purpose. Since she was spilling her guts like that, I think he realized this forced separation was unfair in a lot of ways. And yeah, Damon is always striving for "realness" and honesty above all. But they could hardly have a proper discussion about everything over the phone, so on complete impulse he told her to come back so they could really have it out. GOOD GOOD.
Or she'll deal with it, take it in stride, and tell him she still wants him. And that's how he'll know for sure that the sire bond really is affecting how she feels about him. YES. I was actually catastrophizing the other day that the show might take that route where Elena just blithely goes along with everything -- and that this is how the show would convey that she needs to be fixed after all, because Damon is "corrupting" her. But then I was like - NO WAIT DAMON WOULD NEVER BE OKAY WITH HER BEING OKAY WITH EVERYTHING????
I think it'll be most likely an in-between. I foresee some good fighting, tbh. BRING IT.
I HAVE STARTED WATCHING THE HOUR BUT NOT TOTALLY CAUGHT UP SO *AVERTS EYES*.
lol I think the epic-length recaps are detrimental to your mental health, so. Whatever feels right for you, friend.

Still, a few weeks later, I'm still waiting for the show to address all this stuff. I hope it's still coming, because this stuff is gold.
KEEP WATCHING THE HOUR BUT REALLY I MUST NEEDS DISCUSS IT WITH YOU WATCHHHHHHH IT.
The recaps probably are detrimental to my health. But this show is detrimental to my health in general. I'm too far gone, really. Beyond saving.
