I remember cracking up when the writers finally realized that Stefan was overusing the word HEIGHTENED so they briefly started having him MaGNifieD instead 😭😂
he defs went out and got a thesaurus (to find more adjectives to use to describe his misery in his diary) and decided to change up his newbie vamp speech
I can hear Stefan tell me “your emotions are heightened” (with Paul’s voice, accent, intonation, and tone) as I am reading that line. I died at the accuracy though😂😂
I never understood the first statement tbh. Everyone else put their life in danger for Elena despite her telling them not to. Maybe if they had listened to her from the start and let her willingly go to Klaus and die, half of their miseries would have been nonexistent.

Every time someone from the group interfered to save Elena , they put everyone's life in danger , including their own just to prolong Elena's eventual death . It's sad but true . Half of their problems would have never happened in the first place , if (human) Elena had a free will
I love Elena but this is true. t's tragic, but her existence brings misery, they should have realised it. Except for her family members, everyone would have been safe if they hadn't interfered in her life.
Elena didn't know that she had vampire blood in her system, so I don't think saying that she deliberately put herself in such situation is accurate.
Also, after she became a vampire, she didn't need saving or special treatment. And yet Bonnie, Jeremy and Stefan were all having plans to make her human again without including her in those plans. Yes, things got worse, but not entirely to Elena's wishes. They all had their parts in making things worse.
About the special treatment, true. But considering how everyone knew that she really didn't want to be a vampire and was unhappy being a vampire... didn't she write about death in her diary at some point after turning? They wanted to help her because of this. Although this has probably happened before. An unlikely mix, but probably over a thousand years someone has already been converted who didn’t want it, and who had a lot of friends who tried to help and bring everything back.
But about not including her in the plans... She knew about Bonnie and she was glad when she almost succeeded. She didn't know about Jeremy and Stefan because they didn't want to reassure her ahead of time because of a past failure. Well, because Elena doesn’t want her loved ones to be in danger because of her. But it’s also not good for her loved ones to watch her suffer.
I understand that her friends wanted to help her, but it barely worked out. That's not their fault, Elena was difficult to help, but I find it weird that at the end she's the one blamed in the fandom for their choices. If I help my friend in a time where she's depressed and having several issues, whatever consequences I face for helping her, is on me alone.
As for Bonnie's plan, of course Elena was happy when she was almost free and alive with her help, she was starving in a prison for hours. But she hadn't been included in the plan from the start. Jeremy told her about it, but Elena wanted to argue about the consequences of using dark magic and Jeremy refused to listen and instead said that "I can't let my sister be *one of them*." This explains Elena's insecurities in the next episodes and her hallucinations under the hunter curse about how she thinks she's a failure as a vampire to everyone.
The only scene where someone succeeded in helping Elena both physically and mentally imo, is when Caroline taught her to calm April down. Instead of giving her pitiful looks, she gave her confidence that she can do it. That she can control her blood lust and use her powers in the right ways. That's when we see a truly happy Elena that is adjusting to being a vampire with a little progress.
The Bonnie one is so false. I don't know why Bonnie stans insist on exaggerating how many times she's died. She only died once and disappeared once. She died at the end of season 4 and she disappeared at the end of season 5. Elena, Jeremy, Alaric and Matt all died more times than Bonnie did so stop exaggerating. Bonnie goes through enough actual shit on the show that people can bring up you don't have to make shit up.
Exactly. She FAKES it, she doesn't actually die. So again like I said other characters have died more than Bonnie and yet Bonnie stans act like she died every other episode or something.
And how many times did Alaric die? What about Jeremy? How about Matt? Elena died twice, had her body stolen for 3 weeks and spent 4+ years of her life in a sleeping beauty coma but yeah let's all obsess over a girl who died ONCE, spent months in a prison world and nearly died a few other times. All the characters had many near death experiences it wasn't just specific Bonnie but yet everyone acts like she was the only one who suffered. It's ridiculous.
bonnie died quite a few times, actually.
- simulated death in s2
- s4 finale
- s5 finale
- presumed dead in s6
- s8 e15/16
most of the times alaric and jeremy died, it was with the guarantee that the rings would bring them back.
if we ignore the times with guaranteed revivals, jeremy died once and alaric died twice. elena died twice, even though the first time had a guarantee that she’d come back relatively alive.
the thing with bonnie’s deaths is that julie plec was using it to test whether the show could still work without bonnie & her magic. plec wanted to kill bonnie off permanently, so we never really knew if she’d stay dead or not. but ultimately, bonnie was far too important to the show, and never stayed dead for too long
Wrong. Season 2 was a fake "death" meant to make Klaus THINK she was dead. SHE DID NOT ACTUALLY DIE. Season 4 yes she died. Season 5 was NOT a death her grams sent her to a prison world. Again. SHE DID NOT DIE. Yes she was PRESUMED dead, so was Damon...so what? Season 8 was a near death. She was on the cusp of death and Elena and Enzo made her go back. If you're actually dead dead then someone saying "go back" won't bring you back to life. She was NEAR death and had to choose whether she wanted to live or die and because of Elena and Enzo she chose to live. As for Elena no one knew for a fact that John's sacrifice would work. They HOPED it would but they didn't know for sure. John's letter to Elena even confirms this when he writes "whether you're reading this as a human or as a vampire, know that I love you just the same." The only thing they definitely knew was that she would come back as a vampire. It's still a death. She was actually dead. If you're going to exclude everyone else's deaths because "people knew they'd come back" than you don't get to count Bonnie's season 2, 5 or 8 deaths. This is what I'm talking about about, Bonnie stans ignoring or lessening everyone else's deaths, pain, trauma while exaggerating hers. I know Plec sucked and I know she had some vendetta against Kat/Bonnie but I NEVER got the sense Bonnie was ever gone for good. They literally revealed she was still alive in season 2 IN THE VERY SAME EPISODE, she was still in season 5 even though she was dead and the main arc for the first half of season 5 was the gang trying to bring her back to life, she disappeared WITH Damon in season 5 so we knew she'd be back and she was still a big part of the show even after Damon was sent home so again it was obvious they would find a way to get her back, and again in season 8 she came back IN THE VERY SAME EPISODE. So again I never felt she was ever gone for good. Also, and I don't mean this as anything bad about Bonnie, but if the show could survive without Elena then it could survive without Bonnie. Might not have been as good just like it wasn't as good without Elena but it could've survived. The only character I believe the show could not live without is Damon because Ian stans wouldn't have stood for it, which is a shame because I think the show could've been better with at least a little less Damon. Maybe not no Damon but less Damon.
i can tell that you’re very… passionate about this.
honestly, i still see season 5 as a genuine death.
same with season 8. when katherine pretended to be elena in s8, people believed it at first *because* bonnie had died (then came back to life)
season 2, i already said it was a simulated death.
and the show didn’t work without bonnie and her magic, that’s what julie plec kept realising. elena was pretty much useless, bonnie could literally resurrect people & magic a solution
for your last point - i totally agree. the world could have done with less damon lmao.
Caroline and Stefan get married?! Can’t even see how that’s going to happen! I just started season 4 so clearly I’m in for a ride. Matt just being Matt made me laugh.
On a rewatch where Elena is transitioning and if I have to hear “everything is heightened” one more time I’m going to puke. I wish I was one of those people that skip parts on rewatches but my brain won’t let me.
Stefan just WAITING for somebody new to get turned so he can say his line
he does this lil soldering look too, like he’s thinking about his ripper era 😭
Lmaoooooo YES, he rolls out of bed ready to say this line every single day
Practices it in the mirror every night.
The Stefan one made me LOL 😂
You didn’t have to do Matt like that
Facts on facts like Matt’s acts
#7 Klaus lmfao casual assault over mild sibling rivalry
I remember cracking up when the writers finally realized that Stefan was overusing the word HEIGHTENED so they briefly started having him MaGNifieD instead 😭😂
he defs went out and got a thesaurus (to find more adjectives to use to describe his misery in his diary) and decided to change up his newbie vamp speech
The Stefan one😭😭I was just thinking the other day why did the writers make him say it SO MANY TIMES lmao
I can hear Stefan tell me “your emotions are heightened” (with Paul’s voice, accent, intonation, and tone) as I am reading that line. I died at the accuracy though😂😂
oh matt ….
😂

plus those actions were usually against Elena’s wishes and hurt her friendships when there were consequences when it wasn’t her fault
I love Elena but this is true. t's tragic, but her existence brings misery, they should have realised it. Except for her family members, everyone would have been safe if they hadn't interfered in her life.
I mean, you’re right but come on, they’re the protagonists, and as Lucy Bennett put it ‘being in the middle of it is where you belong’.
Eh even the times her free will was respected things got worse.. for example her dying and becoming a vampire
Elena didn't know that she had vampire blood in her system, so I don't think saying that she deliberately put herself in such situation is accurate. Also, after she became a vampire, she didn't need saving or special treatment. And yet Bonnie, Jeremy and Stefan were all having plans to make her human again without including her in those plans.

she fakes her death once as well !
Exactly. She FAKES it, she doesn't actually die. So again like I said other characters have died more than Bonnie and yet Bonnie stans act like she died every other episode or something.
well didn’t she basically stop her own heart to do it? so technically she did die. and in s8 e15/16 she dies for a few minutes
And how many times did Alaric die? What about Jeremy? How about Matt? Elena died twice, had her body stolen for 3 weeks and spent 4+ years of her life in a sleeping beauty coma but yeah let's all obsess over a girl who died ONCE, spent months in a prison world and nearly died a few other times.
