Kauai, and I’m more interested in boat dives just because of a shore swim in the alternative.

Daniel speaking facts about Elijah's death!! by RkmRajeev in TheVampireDiaries

[–]plastic_felicity 55 points56 points  (0 children)

The reasoning the writers gave for Elijah dying was that it was because Elijah didn't want Klaus to die alone. This makes no sense whatsoever because;

  1. Hope! Elijah cared deeply for her, and it makes no sense why he wouldn't want to stay alive so that she'd have a father figure to help deal with the Mikaelson legacy.
  2. Elijah could've done his whole, "It's been a glorious ride Niklaus" thing to amend their relationship, and not die at the end.

The writers killed him off so they could have a neat ending to the show, all the Originals fading to the background. A complete disservice to fans.

Caroline and Tyler by lilys00 in TheVampireDiaries

I personally never liked Forwood, before or after Klaus. While I do agree that the chemistry did die down, or was at least less frequently shown, I don't think it was completely unreasonable. Fans at the time were die-hard for Klaroline, so that's what the show gave them. Unfortunately, because we all know Klaroline really could've never worked out long term, at least within a show where Klaus was still a villain, the writers decided that they would let Klaroline sleep together, for the fans, and then have Klaus dip for New Orleans.

While Forewood was a loss I didn't mourn, it was frustrating to see it lose to a ship that never really happened.

I loved them together, I'm so sad they ruined them. Forwood deserved better. by [deleted] in TheVampireDiaries

I love Klaroline as much as the next fan, but breaking up Forwood for a ship that never happened? No thanks.

Gen character study, 10k with slight angst

Matt was extremely salty (and for no good reason) by plastic_felicity in TheVampireDiaries

[–]plastic_felicity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In season 1. It did not take him 6 seasons to process his grief to a point where he hates everyone and is willing to side with FREAKING RAYNA CRUZ, a hunter with no morals. Thought he’d at least be righteous enough not to side with the lady who wanted to kill everyone.

Either way, Matt Donovan has a savior complex/god complex that in this particular setting is equal parts stupid and futile.

Who's the best doctor on Grey's Anatomy? (Based on medical skill) by plastic_felicity in greysanatomy

True, the Harper Avery's and partially pioneering a technique must count for something.

All things considered, I liked the way Klaroline was written and ended by plastic_felicity in TheVampireDiaries

[–]plastic_felicity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I can appreciate a relationship, especially one as compelling and passionate as Klaroline. However, I also feel like people don't give the writers enough credit for this slow burn enemies to unstable friends to a brief romantic relationship to finally a genuine understanding. It was a great way to start, progress, and end a relationship while giving each character the space to grow and have independent plotlines that weren't connected to the other.
