Screw You, Epic Romance -- Haha, but the Salvatores ARE the Epic Romance? XDDDD
When it comes to self-identification, Stefan and Damon Salvatore define themselves primary as brothers. -- YES. GENIUS GENIUS GENIUS.
I just. Everything you say about that is amazing and true and I want to hug your words.
When Stefan forced Damon to turn, he didn't do it because they had a unique, undying bond or anything. He did it, because he was just a kid, he lost everything overnight, and it scared the shit out of him -- Huh. Interesting. I kinda think they DID have a really special bond as humans. After their mother died, all they had pretty much was each other ('cause their dad was rubbish at supporting either of them). But IA that their bond wouldn't be as HUGE as it is if not for Stefan forcing Damon.
That's why I love the Salvatore boys so much - they don't try to claim that there always is a wonderful, unbreakable bond between siblings. -- Great point. Clearly they are the most important people to each other, period. But they never put their love on a pedestal. It's never LOOK AT OUR EPIC ROMANCE, lol.
although I think Ian would totally support the idea of Damon adopting a puppy -- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA A++++++. Fic NEEDS to be written.
And that's how I see the Salvatores. They are this HUGE bullshit-free zone. They don't bother with sugar-coating. -- AMEN. And that's why I love them so hard.
Damon doesn't give a shit about Stefan becoming good again… Damon doesn't need Stefan to become anything for him; whoever Stefan becomes is fine for Damon, because at this point he simply cannot become anything but a brother. -- YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES THIS WHOLE PARAGRAPH. I CANNOT. I got a bit misty-eyed there, nil. I just. TRUTH. SO MUCH TRUTH. (Though, I think Elena is definitely STARTING to let go of her idealism, as we have discussed.) What the brothers have--it goes beyond hope, beyond happiness, beyond redemption. If that's not unconditional love, I don't know what is.
It's not because they are so moral and wouldn't go after a brother's girl, because it's wrong. Love is important for them, it's powerful and it changes their lives, but lovers is not who they primary are. First of all, they are brothers. -- AMEN. Above all, they are loyal to each other.
