Computer drama STRIKES BACK. I had my laptop for all of three less-than-glorious days last week before it went LOL, IT IS SO NOT YOUR BIRTHDAY and went to shit again, and now the old one, having been used more in the last two weeks than it has in the last year, is even more of a wreck. I have limited access during the daytime and sometimes can coax ( Read more... )

I'm guessing the Salvatores are on the Elijah side of the bloodline...

Caroline --> Damon (and Stefan) --> Katherine --> Rose --> (my spec) Elijah

This is based on the tie that Rose had to Elijah in some of their episodes and nothing more, jsyk! I know NOTHING!!

Yeah, it's probably Elijah. I remember feeling like Rose and Trevor knew him, during those few scenes they had together.

BOO @ YO LAPTOP. Rude.

Most important thing about this episode: Bonnie got to say no. She could've helped Damon, Klaus probably would've let her, and she turned her back on him, because why should she always have to be the bigger person and save everyone?

YES YES YES YES YES YES. That whole sequence was EVERYTHING I WANTED FROM THIS SHOW.

I love how totally Mystic Falls it is that nobody even considers whether or not letting all the vampires die is the right thing to do. It's just HOW WILL THIS AFFECT ELENA US?

lol such truth.

KLAUS WAS EXCELLENT THIS EPISODE. I forgot how entertaining he could be away from Caroline…

Stefan was A+ too. WE ARE IN AGREEMENT, LOL.

(Probably it was easy at least in part because we know how much he gets off on women who tie him up and beat him down? Oh Rebekah.)

LOL. Yes to all. I enjoyed the fuck out of those torture scenes, not even gon' front.

Ugh, WOE to the death of Sage. I'm less pissed about that than I thought I'd be, but I would have killed for more exploration of her ~issues.

RUDER THAN RUDE.

IKR?

I didn't even have time to get attached to Sage like I did with Rose! Such a waste of potential.

YESSSSSS. I loved that so much. It's actually kind of what I was talking about in reaction to last week's episode? Where Bonnie is asked to keep sacrificing and keep sacrificing, and at some point she has to choose herself over doing what needs to be done. And when she finally says screw it and walks away, she completely breaks down, because who is she if she's not the bigger person? If she's not the one with the ~duty and the ~morals and everything? GOD SOMEONE JUST GIVE THAT GIRL A HUG.

(I worry that this story arc is leading toward Bonnie leaving Mystic Falls, though. She's really at the breaking point where I think wanting to put serious distance between herself and Elena/Salvatore drama is probably really appealing. But NOOOOOO DON'T GO AWAY BONNIE.)

Yeah. I feel like Rebekah and Klaus having Damon, of all people, kind of let her off the hook in some way? Because then it's not the fate of Mystic Falls, or Elena and Caroline, or her family, or whoever. She doesn't have to think about the bigger picture. For once, her internal conflict can be about her.

I WORRY TOO!

Ugghhhh, computer woes. THE WORST. I'm sorry, bb! I feel your pain. I think my laptop is slowly dying, even though I've had pretty much every single part of it replaced at some point in the last 6 years. Technology is sometimes the worst.

She could've helped Damon, Klaus probably would've let her, and she turned her back on him, because why should she always have to be the bigger person and save everyone? And oh, fuck, it hurt her so badly. Leaving Damon there didn't get her mom back or her grams back or make any of it go away.

THIS. Bonnie was FLAWLESS in this episode. I'm a little in love with it. We got to see her make the dark choice - not the wrong one, but not necessarily the unselfish, unassailable one. Bonnie always does the right thing, no matter what, but here there was no right thing to do, and you know that killed her. She was so torn up about leaving him, but she just couldn't bring herself to save him either, and the whole thing was just perfect. Her breakdown was a thing of beauty.

I was really hoping that would be ( ... )

Everything I have wanted for Bonnie!

I love that he deserves it and that he KNOWS it, and isn't even really bothered by it happening. I don't even think he'll hold much of a grudge, because Damon does terrible things, and then terrible things happen to him, and it all makes sense.Oh, totally. And I don't even have to feel bad for him about the guilt, because he even constructed that whole bit of the scenario himself. It's just so much fun ( ... )
