Everyone knows that Bonnie Bennet was a character that continuously sacrificed her own life/happiness for the other characters on the show. What I hate is that Julie’s arguments for not wanting Bonkai are that “he is too bad” and that “she deserves better” but correct me if I’m wrong, isn’t Kai the only one that actually almost died so that Jeremy could save Bonnie?
And I get it, Bonkai is not a healthy ship but since when does Julie care about that? None of Bonnie’s relationships on the show are healthy! Every character on the show repeatedly use her and abuse her for their own gain and what does Bonnie get in return??… Nothing!
But God help us if they explore a relationship that actually allows her to be more of an equal.
Julie just doesn’t want Bonnie with anyone who is a white fave character, has little to do with it being a “healthy” ship which every bullshit excuse she’s given n the past for EVERY ship proves.
When asked about Tonnie she said she didn’t want to copy Willow/Oz from BTVS then, firs,t pairs him with Caroline, and then 4 years later pairs Tyler with Liv proving how full of shit she is because now that the witch is white she’s not worried about ripping off BTVS *eye roll*.
Klonnie, a ship both actors showed interest in and quite a few Bonnie fans–KC happens in the most random scene ever.
Kennett was already a crackship and everyone knew until Plec’s infamous “Bonnie’s too good for him” tweet that we all knew was bullshit but had it proven with Kolvina, again no qualms now that the witch is white.
Bamon, I’ll admit that’s not the greatest choice for Bonnie given who Damon is but excuse after excuse just as flimsy as the next which all equated to Bonnie doesn’t deserve her white fav and can only be with her self insert which all of her excuses pretty much equate to.
Bonkai does have a unique angle with the fact that Plec doesn’t like Kai, but I’m pretty sure that if she had Kai on Legacies it would pretty much follow the same pattern.
What I don’t understand is how anyone buys a word Plec says because the real answer to why anything happens is simply because she does or does not want them to. She doesn’t even follow the logic of her own show, so why would she follow any logic with anything else?
