It's All About Brothers

This is a spontanous Salvatore meta. It combines the thoughts I had while re-watching season one, all sorts of random TVD observations and my flailing all over 3x08. Since I just HAVE TO do this, and I have very little time (unexpected family problems that will consume most of my free time at least till Tuesday), unfortunately I can't fiddle with

I don't think a polyamorous arrangement here should be considered in terms of good and evil. I guess it's more of what they would feel comfortable with.

Oh, I didn’t mean to imply that polyamory is bad. Sure, it makes some people feel squicky, but I’m not one of them. It’s not for me, I guess, but I can see how it would work for some people? Like these three characters in particular. And I can see them going for it, too---granted, after a lot of shouting and crying and gnashing of teeth, but I do think they could warm to the idea. It just seems the only logical thing to do?

But I keep getting the feeling that the showrunners might not go for it. I guess it just doesn’t really GO with most people’s idea of “epic romance.” I can see them getting real squicked by the whole thing. But again, showrunners: your characters are murderers and you’re grossed out by an unorthodox relationship arrangement?

Elena and Stefan from the very beginning were shaping their relationship as an epic romance, and in order to get into a threesome, they'd have to re-evaluate their entire relationship....Right now we have some very interesting dynamics.

Well, the recent developments have definitely been game changers, don’t you think? I can only hope the JP and KW reevaluate their ideas regarding ideal romantic relationships. There’s room in there for three!

Definitely game changers, oh yes. But I'm not really sure if I want to have treesome on the show. There are just too many possibilities for me to choose one now. I wouldn't protest if they started writing the show like that, but I'm still not sure if this is my dream solution. It's purely the matter of too many openings to choose from; how do I ever pick just one? I should have, like, four separate shows: in one there is a threesome, in one they all just live in Mystic Falls as friends and do loads of awesome team stuff, in one Elena is broken and she starts to both sleep with Damon and abuse him psychologically, and one in which Elena goes to college and gets the hell out of this whole MF mess ;).
