Can you imagine anything that would be more terrifying to Damon than being a father? I think it will still be pretty scaryangrydoomy in places. I mean, it's Damon.

So yay, hook me up when you get home!

Since one of my fics was all about how Damon didn't listen to Taylor Swift, and yet Elena was always quoting lyrics to him, I can't help that some of her stuff stuck in my head with regard to them. It's just how it is! And that line about dragons fits so much. I ♥ it!

Oh, I see. Yeah, don't send me that stuff, because I don't see the way Damon feels about Elena as being dark--he's a dark person certainly, but that's sort of the point of their relationship being so wonderful--she pulls him away from that place.

This is the Animal-related song I associate with them.

So yeah, not that dark, not for this round.

Check your e-mail inbox to find one from yours truly. I've sent my 6 best DE songs that I most identify with them. 3 are links (for free downloads) and 3 are attached files.

Most of them speak to the lighter side of their romance but one relates to the slightly darker side (it's I Love The Way You Lie by Rihanna).

Hope that helps.

I don't have a music rec right now, but I just wanted to say how excited I am to be able to look forward to an "epically long Damon and Elena story" from you! I'm sure it will be great...is it done yet?!!!

badboy_fangirl May 4 2011, 06:31:50 UTC

Ha! Not even started yet--it's my summer project. But it will be at least 25k, so once it is done, it will be take loads of your time to read! Hee!

Here's what I've got:
Carolina Liar- Show Me What I'm Looking For
The Barenaked Ladies: Call and Answer
The Fray- She Is
Ray LaMontange- Trouble
Lifehouse- Everything
The Toadies- Possum Kingdom
Dave Matthews Band- Two Step

badboy_fangirl May 4 2011, 06:34:11 UTC

I have The Fray and Ray LaMontagne.

I'd really love to hear the Lifehouse song, and the TBN song, if you wanted to upload them! :D

badboy_fangirl May 5 2011, 05:36:48 UTC

Can you find them on YouTube? Links work too. I just want to hear them before I decide if I want to download them. If I get some time tomorrow I'll look for them!
