OH GOD, THIS IS JUST... I AM SPEECHLESS TBH

Like. I want to quote favourite parts at you but I literally do not even know where or how to begin, and I feel like I would never stop, 'cause this is all so beautiful. UGH. I love the idea that Jeremy gets fucked up just by existing now, and the line about how they were never this with their parents, their parents never knew them as screwed up children with blood on their hands, ugh, and the give-and-take and love-and-hate of it all, hating her like you can only hate family but he doesn't even know if that's normal or not anymore, and having the urge to just TELL someone for the reaction, and everything's funny once you fucked your sister, and all the parts about dead girlfriends, but then Bonnie was the opposite, Bonnie was alive but he's closer to dead, and just the whole thing of them being so fucked up and Elena's better at faking normalcy, and they have no one left, what even matters any more, and JEREMY BLAMING HER MAYBE A LITTLE BIT FOR THEIR PARENTS' DEATHS, AND ALL THE FIGHTING AND HURTING, UGH UGH THIS IS JUST SO BRILLIANT I'M BASICALLY QUOTING THINGS AT YOU ANYWAY. BUT. WAY TO MAKE ME ALL THE FEELS FOR THESE TWO WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE THAT MANY BEFORE. UGH. FUCKED UP KIDS, OH GILBERTS. LET ME SING YOU ALL THE PRAISES FOR THIS BASICALLY.

WAY TO MAKE ME ALL THE FEELS FOR THESE TWO WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE THAT MANY BEFORE

THAT IS THE BEST COMPLIMENT YOU COULD PAY ME, TBH dfjaks;dfa thank you so much, I AM GLAD YOU HAVE JEREMY/ELENA FEELINGS NOW. That's really all I wanted to do, because I love Gilberts a lot but there's not really a lot of focus on Jeremy & Elena's relationship in canon or fandom, which is odd because it has a lot of my favorite things in fictional siblings (two orphaned kids who only have each other left as far as family goes, getting lost in the woods) and I just wanted to dive into how traumtaized and messed up they must be (especially Jeremy, who I love because he's such a messed up kid and the show only sometimes acknowledges that) and roll around in it.

BASICALLY, I AM REALLY SUPER GLAD YOU LIKED THIS, THANK YOU SO MUCH :D <3 <3 <3

Ahhhhhh see that is the thing too, these two actually do embody SO MANY of my favourite sibling things too or even just favourite relationship things, ~they only have each other, exactly, etc etc, but I guess I never really conceptualized them in a way that would WORK until I read this, if that makes sense? So yeeeeeees, ALL MY JEREMY/ELENA FEELINGS ARE THANKS TO YOUU <33
