I hate how much Damon/Caroline intrigues me. This is really, really excellent. Thank you for sharing!

So do I, mostly because I'm well aware it ain't never going to happen again in canon and seriously, is there some sort of vaccination against falling in love with ships that never even leave the dock? Thanks a lot, glad you liked it :)

I love that whole thing. Caroline is so strong, and still so vulnerable-this was beautifully written.

And Damon. Oh Damon! What else can be said?

Is there a sequel, maybe of Caroline in Italy? *Hopes for a sequel*

Thank you so much :) I love the idea of Caroline going off on her own and running into Damon in different places (not that he's keeping tabs or anything, because that would be too much like caring and he's Damon freakin' Salvatore, he doesn't care. At all. Really).

And Caroline is so sunshiny and sparkly that I hate to think she'll ever have to be alone (I ship Caroline with everything short of inanimate objects) but I think she'll handle it, she's awesome.

Don't know anything about Italy except textbook stuff, but if you ever wrote about her there I'd be the first to read it (YOU'RE TOO GOOD AT D/C).

Wow. I really enjoyed this. I like how much darker your Caroline is because it rings true to who she would be at this point and time. I also enjoyed your writing style very much. Hope to see you write more in this fandom.

Wow, that sounds pretty much like how I'm hoping you'll write more for this pairing :D

I honestly find D/C very hard to justify in my mind (which, coupled with my excessive love for them, leads to a lot of bipolarity) because the show pretty much glossed over the whole abuse/torture thing (and we KNOW Damon gets away with a lot because Ian is so gorgeous) so I keep trying to reconcile that with a possible future for them and that makes them darker I suppose!

But obviously in the middle of the 'darkness', I've added some of the most cringe-worthy, cheesy lines ever -sigh- I need to stop reading trashy romance novels D:

Your comment-leaving button confused me.

Nevertheless, this was amazing, as per usual.
I'm on such a bitter (I can admit it) rampage about Damon/Elena right now that this is even MORE intriguing/amazing than normal.

And I didn't even think that was a feat possible. I think I said that backwards. I don't care much.

BUT OMG.
This was seriously good.
I love your Caroline. I love your Damon.
I LOVE your Caroline/Damon. And yes I put Caroline first on purpose, as I feel, regardless of what she feels, Caroline is the dominant half of these two.

Just because, as you said, she's Caroling Fucking Forbes.

Hahaha, I didn’t even realize I still had that, I’d been playing with journal styles and forgot to change that back.

Wait, you are not. What are you, my soulmate or something? Because I’ve been in the Damon/Elena ranting mode too (SERIOUSLY, WTF ARE THEY DOING TO DAMON) which is why my love for Damon/Caroline has shifted to crazy from ‘eh, they could be cute’.

IKR? I think Caroline just severely underestimates herself. The whole always-being-overlooked-for-Elena thing has obviously affected her really deeply, which is ridiculous because she’s so freakin awesome. How much do I love Tyler for pointing out that she’s incredible and that it’s hard not to fall for her. Because that is my view exactly.

Show, you better get back to the awesomeness that was season-one Damon/Elena or else I’m filing a lawsuit, so there. Hmph.

(OH MY GOD, I WROTE THE WHOLE THING ONCE AND IT GOT DELETED, WTF UNIVERSE?)

WE ARE SOULMATES ( ... )

OKAY YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT MY EXPRESSION WAS LIKE WHILE READING THIS: Something like O___________O because, seriously? YOU SHIP DASEY? OHMYGOD. LWD's been my biggest fandom obsession till date. I was on it for a solid two and a half years (and that too just a couple months back). I've actually written like an insane amount of fic for it, long chapter fics as well (which I NEVER write usually cuz I'm lazy), because I used to love it so, so much. So much possibility and UST there ( ... )

this was beautifully written!!
your characterization of Caroline, who she could come to be after all is said and done is perfection <3

Her hate/love feelings for Damon, the way he responds to them, everything about this is just perfect.
& I loved the ending with her deciding to go to Italy (give what it represents for him) and the glimmer of hope she gives herself through the idea that he, like Matt, could come to love her one day; gaah just beautiful!! =)

p.s. I noticed that we both have almost the same journal titles (mine is "slowly reviving ophelia") =P

youcallitwinter February 15 2011, 07:43:58 UTC

Aww, thank you so much!

Oh my god, Italy, like, not to be obvious or anything. But I love you for picking that out because I’m sure a lot of people’ll be thinking- wtf dude, why would she randomly go to Italy? I’m pretty sure she doesn’t know the connection herself, or will definitely not admit to it :D ( ... )
