Gone Girl AU: Silas/Qetsiyah

“What are you thinking? How are you feeling? What have we done to each other? What will we do?”

“We weren’t ourselves when we fell in love, and when we became ourselves – surprise! – we were poison. We complete each other in the nastiest, ugliest possible way.”

“I’m the cunt you married. The only time you liked yourself was when you were trying to be someone this cunt might like. I’m not a quitter, I’m that cunt. I killed for you; who else can say that? You think you’d be happy with a nice Midwestern girl? No way, baby! I’m it.”

TVD Episode Review: Got through 2×12

Honestly it was meh, but it didn’t make me want to pull my hair out…most of the time. There was actually a SE moment I did enjoy at the beginning and Elena wasn’t annoying until the end with Damon when she was stating out loud Damon’s feelings and doing that thing she does where she inserts herself into people’s problems without being self aware enough to know she’s being hypocritical which is why I had to take a break from season 2.

No Bonnie again but not surprising. It wouldn’t be a TVD season if Bonnie wasn’t missing from a bunch of episodes. Oh, and to add to that, the only black character in the entire episode, an extra with a speaking role, is killed because it also wouldn’t be an episode of TVD if the only black characters weren’t brutalized.

I do not like Jules which is weird since I prefer werewolves as they are the underdogs, but she was a little too flippant about murdering an entire camp and an officer. For me, in order for a character to have the moral high ground they need to better than who they’re criticizing. It’s why Elena annoys me so much and why I latch on to Bonnie and Tyler so much–they criticize but they’re coming from a position where they can. The only anomaly I guess is Matt, but my issue is that he just criticizes but never takes any action. He’s often so passive that he makes Elena look like an action star.

Watching Tyler learn the truth was nice and almost made me excited to see the havoc he and the werewolves were going wreak on the MFG for Mason until I remember it’s TVD and they’re all just going to die uneventfully as though they never existed because that’s how werewolves are treated on this show–they’re they Native Americans of the show.

I remember being a lot more interested in Caroline’s love life when I first watched the show but right now I’m just bored and wondering why I’m watching Caroline instead of Bonnie–someone actually useful to the plot.

And on that note I also remember this episode being a lot more emotional with Rose’s death but again I found the episode a little short and it also bored me. And back to Bonnie, as much as I hate how much they use Bonnie I’m also curious as to why they didn’t try to use her in this episode to help with the werewolf bite. Hell, she would have been more qualified to watch Rose than Elena which is another instance where Bonnie’s more important to the plot than the main character to the point I’m always wondering why she isn’t the main character.

I don’t remember how long ago it was but I remember reading some Damon stan’s comment on how they felt so bad for Damon at the end of this episode while he murdered that woman. I always knew they were delusional by default but I don’t know how someone can be so delusional as to feel bad for Damon as he unnecessarily murders someone. And here’s the weird thing, it was kinda hot for a second to me which isn’t surprising as a Bonkai fan, especially dark Bonkai fan, I find dark murderous men sexy, but it stopped being hot the moment he started whining about his man pain because that was also the moment it stopped being dark and turned into a temper tantrum, something he’s had many of. Nothing turns me off more than a temper tantrum, it’s why I’m rarely attracted to Damon and Klaus.

I lied when I said that was the only time Elena annoyed me, there and the end with Stefan. I honestly never thought she could annoy me in a new way but I found it–she narrates the plot which would be all fine and well if was a voice over or something (And even then I’d be a little annoyed) but it’s not. In that moment with Damon and later in that moment with Stefan she’s explain the plot to me instead of letting disern that my self. I don’t need Elena to explain to me that Damon has feelings and is feeling guilty in that moment–I want watch it. I don’t need Elena and Stefan actually to explain that he called Isobel when I watched a 2 minute discussion about it in the beginning– already know. Plec, stop explaining your plot to me! Just show it! And with that in mind the John Gilbert reveal could have been so much better but due to this explain the plot to me nonsense before it was just utterly underwhelming.

So those are my thought on the episode. For something that I felt meh about there sure are a lot of things I dislike. I’ll keep you guys posted for the next episode which I’m kinda excited about because I’m one of those rare few actually likes John Gilbert. But I know I’ll be disappointed TVD does not do family relations well and that’s actually the only capacity I find Elena interesting in, but I so rarely get to see it. I’m hoping there are enough Elena and John interactions to tide me through the episode. Also I hope they bring back Bonnie because I miss her as well.

Klaus Mikaelson for the meme

My NOTP: Caroline for reasons outlined here
My BROTP: Kol, they seemed to have a lot of fun together
My OTP: Bonnie she makes the most sense for how they introduced his character
My second choice pairing: Stefan
My fluffy pairing: Bonnie, kinda, I honestly don’t think fluffy exist in the same realm as him.
My angsty pairing: Rebekah
My favorite poly ship: Bonnie and Rebekah
My weirdest pairing: Rebekah because incest has now, nor ever been my jam, but Klaus was waay too involved in his sister’s love life for me not to pick up on some romantic vibes. I sometimes think his obsession with Caroline is because he can’t have Rebekah because she’s his sister.

Let’s play!

Let’s play a game…choose what u like the most or the least at The Vampire Diaries:

– the best and worst character

– the best and worst couple/ship

– the best and worst friendship

– the best and worst actor

(just who u like the most and the least)

– the best and worst season

– the best and worst scene in the whole series

image

U can choose however u want to, it’s just a game 🙂 Don’t argue, everyone can have his own opinion about the show 🙂

  • Best Character: Bonnie Bennett, nothing else needed to explain, she’s the best character and the actual hero of the show.
  • Worst Character: Elena. Most of my followers would probably think I’d pick Damon because he’s an awful person, but hate him all I want he’s still an interesting character just due to how polarizing he is. Everyone either hates or loves him rarely anything in between and his looks can’t completely account for that so he’s still an interesting character, Elena however is not. One of my biggest gripes with her character, and the show, is that there are so many interesting things going but you’re stuck with Elena and have to sit through her crap to get to the interesting parts. The most refreshing part of season 6 was the minimal crap I had to sit through from her to get to the interesting part.
  • Best Ship: Bonkai. The most raw chemistry of the entire show. Plus my blog pretty much entirely explains my other reasons.
  • Worst Ship: Delena. Literally tanked the shows ratings if that’s telling enough. 
  • Best Friendship: Don’t know the show focused too much on romance to produce any good friendships. 
  • Worst Friendship: Damon and Caroline. ”I’m actually friends with my rapist” should never be a phrase you should be able to say and as such this is why they are the worst friendship.  
  • Best Actor: Honestly I don’t know. I’m inclined to say Kat Graham just due to her scene in 6×09. The stages of heartbreak we see he go through is just so raw and believable, when there’s an emotional scene like (usually with Elena) it’s usually just sad event queue cry with her the break down was a lot more complex as you watched her try to be strong but ultimate succumbing to the tears. But like I said I’m inclined to give it her, but not going to because I don’t really pay that much attention to the other characters acting unless something they do is particularly bad that takes me out the immersion (which actually happens often because way too much exposition is told rather than shown). 
  • Worst Actor: Zach Roerig. Trust me it’s not just the fact that Matt is a character that doesn’t have much material to work with, in fact I made a post that he actually does have quite a bit to work with, it’s the actor. When I think about the moments I’ve cringed most with in the acting it usually him and the worst being in season 5 when he is possessed by the traveler. It’s funny how in an interview I remember he once complained about not getting a decent storyline, I think it was the 100 episode special, and that was actually a pretty big opportunity for him to use his acting range by introducing the antagonist of the season and he completely flops. Granted the Travelers were completely ridiculous, but what made them mostly ridiculous was their introduction through Matt.
  • Best Season: Season 2 probably it was the most cohesive the show had ever been. Although season 6 was a close second due to Kai, unfortunately everything not having to do with Kai, Bonnie, the prison world, and Damon’s friendship with Bonnie was just boring.

  • Worst Season: Season 5, the series finale may have been the worst episode of the entire series, but season 5 had way too many bad episodes to be good.  

  • Best scene: Don’t know. For a show I actually spend quite a lot of time discussing nothing has ever popped out at me as “This is great!”. A lot of the show is either good or mediocre and rating something that I have pretty equal feelings about is hard, so I really don’t know.
  • Worst scene: I honestly thought it would be a scene in the finale, but no, it’s the scene that sets up the finale in 6×14 when Kai is telling Bonnie that Katherine is the Queen of Hell. The scene was interspersed with Bonnie repeating Kai’s words to Damon which made the scene very tedious, but what made it worse to me was how it built up Katherine, but kind of on some false pretenses. “The myth, the legend…” but is she though? When we find out all there is to Katherine her diabolicleness??? is kinda mediocre because all she does is run. But honestly what confused me is her motivations–it honestly just reminded me why I was annoyed by her presence in season 4 which was why are you here? You have better things to do. But even more so the first thought I had was “Of all the convoluted nonsense” because it did not make sense–that’s what happens when you believe your own character’s hype. And by the finale I had the same exact feelings and then some, but it all started with that one scene. When I rewatch it for Bonkai content I literally stop the video when he says “I lost a bet” because I know how everything after that is just crap.   .
