MY OTP IS PERFECT- a Forwood master post

Apr 22, 2013 16:46

Soooo many Forwood feelings after that last episode, guys. Can we all agree that Tyler Lockwood is the best boyfriend ever for risking his life to make Caroline's prom dreams come true? I mean look at how they both just relax into each other for the moment before they're forced apart again, how they're trying to cover up their sadness about it in ( Read more... )

forwood, meta, the vampire diaries

Le sigh. OTP is perfect. This ship has completely ruined me. I'm never going to ship a pairing like this ever again.

I know- I'm ruined too. Ugh. Stupid deliberately tragic storylines. I get more annoyed with fandom though. If one more idiot spouts "Caroline needs to go to the spinoff. Klaus makes her relevant" crap, I am going to stab something.

Thanks for this post :)

You're welcome! I will probably add to it as time goes on. I just needed somewhere to put this all down and refer to easily. :D

Thank you so much for compiling this. I love reading metas about this couple and the characters themselves. BTW, have you ever come across Klaroline metas? This may sound harsh, but I'd like to see if Klaroline shippers POV, 'cause so far the strongest arguments seem to be along the lines of "OMG he drew her a ponny, that's so epic, OMG!!!".

I think KC-ers made a list of "100 reasons to ship Klaroline", but I have only heard this and not actually seen it. TBH, I think the whole list will read like a bible of internalized misogyny and characterization-fail, so I've not gone searching. LOL

I mean, the idiocy in the Caroline Forbes tag and spite in the Forwood tag is enough. RME

I don't ship them particularly, but this is a great collection. \o/ The two of them have such fantastic development.

nrgburst April 24 2013, 02:33:40 UTC

Cheers! I agree- it's like the KC-ers are watching a totally different show. Although I get how SC is gaining fans- it's just so bloody "good brother" Stefan. *sigh*

wheatear April 24 2013, 22:33:04 UTC

I think the Klaus/Caroline fans are watching a show that pushes Klaus/Caroline virtually every episode. Sigh.

nrgburst April 24 2013, 22:49:56 UTC

Honestly, I think a lot of them have internalized popular fanfiction plots for what actually happens on the show. Like they proclaim things like "Tyler wants to stay in MF" and "Klaus is deeply in love with Caroline", things which have no support in canon, as if these are well known facts.

amber_protocol April 24 2013, 03:34:57 UTC

Ugh, they're so pretty and MFEO, thanks for this post. I can't stop listening to You Send Me, it's such a gorgeous song.

Hey have you read JoMo's latest interview here? UGHHHH WHY IS HE SAYING THOSE WORDS? He'd better be kidding because dnw Caroline crossing over to The Originals or anything beyond that. *breaks things*

nrgburst April 24 2013, 04:44:01 UTC

Hahaha I think he's really regretting teasing the KC fans- they're threatening to boycott the spinoff to get KC. So I think he's trying to pacify the hordes that are organizing twitter campaigns and sitting at polls clearing cookies repeatedly to get their ship to win. O.o Besides- Candice's TVD contract won't allow for her to switch shows like that and we know she hates KC.

And i hate the KC fan mindset. Because you know, Caroline repeatedly asking for her actual boyfriend back, being obviously in love with him is not a real obstacle, but Klaus LEAVING Caroline of his own free will is. RME

Plus note that even he thinks that Camille is a Julie self insert. LMAO (Well, judging by his flub up.)

amber_protocol April 24 2013, 04:53:37 UTC

I'm regretting him teasing them as well, now he's saying stuff like this and it's making me nervous. Klaroline and Caroline guesting on The Originals: Just Say No.

Because you know, Caroline repeatedly asking for her actual boyfriend back is not an obstacle, but Klaus LEAVING Caroline of his own free will is. RME

This is from the same delusional people who endlessly proclaim that Klaus loves her and would never hurt her despite the fact he's nearly directly killed her twice. They're off in their little fantasy land where Caroline is ~Mrs Mikaelson~ and Klaus' princess and how can you use logic against them? You can't. I might as well talk to my cat for all the good it'll do.

Where does he imply Camille is a Plec self-insert? I literally just skipped to the Caroline parts because idgaf about the rest. Although this quote confused me:

She's a beautiful girl, but to me, she doesn't look like the majority of the fans out there who watch the show, for example.

Wtf is he saying here? irdgi

nrgburst April 24 2013, 05:53:16 UTC

"The Originals" has been pitched as a darker, more adult show, and Camille personifies that. She's the only human regular character that's in the show, but she comes at it very damaged. The characters in "Vampire Diaries," at the beginning, had experienced tragedy, but they came at it from a very innocent place. She's coming in much more jaded, with an understanding of darkness. I have one proper scene with her -- a few run-ins with her, but one proper scene -- and I think that's some of the best work I've done. Even though I don't say much in the scene, it was a challenge for me. I really like working with Leah. She makes interesting choices with Julie. She's a beautiful girl, but to me, she doesn't look like the majority of the fans out there who watch the show, for example. They might have a slightly harder time relating to her, which is what makes her so intriguing. She's a fantastic character ( ... )
