Great story! I really like this.

[force_oblique]

Thanks, Tori!
I'm so glad you liked it! XD

Oh wow. Thank you for voicing so much more than that scene alone did. I thought I cried when I watched that last scene in the episode Rose.

[force_oblique]

Thanks so much for your comment!
I cried too, it was so intense and my heart broke for Damon!

I answered this post at FF, but I'll post here again: I really love how gorgeous and haunting this piece is. I said I should stop torturing myself by reading stories about "the" scene, because I end up crying every time. But how could I when there such great fics out there. I really like how you dived into Damon's despair. It really makes me want some relief for him. I know Rose is supposed to be his new love interest. I wasn't convinced when I first saw her. But at this point, I would welcome anything, anyone that would bring so relief to the character. There's only so much beating that one person can take. Damon is LONG overdue for a break from fate. Maybe Rose will do that for him. And maybe that will allow you to follow up on this fic and write a less haunting, more bittersweet fic for our pleasure next time! Baby steps towards Damon's happiness... :-D

Awws, that was you? I should have known with the name and everything *slaps forehead* lol

I'm glad you liked it. Hehe, I know what you mean, but I have to admit that re-visiting that and any sad scene and writing about it, is like catharsis for me. It kinda makes me feel better! Well, not actually better, but as if I'm there too and helping in some way lol

Gosh, Rose? I like the actress, I loved her as Bela on Supernatural, but I don;t see any chemistry yet!
I hadn't read any spoilers.. Is it final that she is going to be Damon's love interest?

Oh, believe me, I want nothing more than to write a Happy!Damon fic.. Although, sadly my forte is sad fics! lol

Rose: sorry, didn't mean to spoil you. Well, you know the extent of what I know about it. Supposedly, she will be a potential love interest for Damon. Don't know to what degree. But thinking about it after last week's episode and her 500yo self offering to help, now that she is on her own, I thought: well, that actually could be good for Damon

[force_oblique]

Awws, it's ok, I don't mind spoilers! XD
I guess that makes sense because Damon being the doormat for Elena isn't an option anymoire.
Like you said he's been burned before and that isn;t enough anymore.
He really deserves someone like Rose.

I think, like you said, that she is loyal and I adore that in a character, it makes her interesting and lovely to me, because I love characters like that and just the scene where she saw (obviously the love of her life, her partner) not just her friend, get decapitated like that must have been a heart-wrenching moment...
I could see a fiction in the works for her, if we see a little bit more of her, so that I can relate! lol

And you know what? i think she would be ideal for Damon - at least at this point- exactly for the reasons you mention...
She seems to be the kind of person who has a moral code and can dedicate and apply herself to one person if she cares!
And somehow i think she needs him as much as he needs her right now!! :)

oh my!

[damon_s_86]

English isn't my native language either so I understand the effort. wow. Job well done.
I love how you read into the whole episode so well. But I think you were semi-harsh on Elena.

Re: oh my!

[force_oblique]

Thanks so much :)
I am glad you liked it!!
Heeh, you mean I should interpret her feelings more?
Maybe I will do it in my next fic... I already have a request to write a Elena fic! :)

Re: oh my!

[damon_s_86]

Nope. I'm greedy. I want more Damon.

[force_oblique]

rotfl!!
Hehe, you got it! ;)
