'Not Fade Away'


Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

i've probably watched the scene a dozen times, zuisa. guts me every time. someone youtubed it and i've watched it three times while i've been at work. when he's telling her he's going to say the most selfish thing he's ever said and his voice catches? gah.

for your viewing pleasure. [link]

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

AND now I'm all emotional again. Thank you for the link!! As soon as I saw him sitting in her room I knew it was going to be an emotional scene for me. I adore Damon and I basically just want him and Elena to run off somewhere and never speak of the other Salvatore brother again. Hah. I kid, sort of. I really love the show as a whole but Damon's relationship with Elena is definitely one of the more compelling (hah! I'm so witty) components.

His voice catching and single tear just slay me. The forehead kiss? So damn sweet.

Also, your tagline is one of my favorite scenes from the show.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Are you all telling me that Vampire Diaries is actually a good show? My world is askew.

TVD is just so much fun.

It really is, honestly. It's a little campy from time to time, but I legitimately enjoy it. Everyone on it is ridiculously attractive and none of the acting is bad. Plus Damon just rocks.

I have lots more thoughts but someone just came to the door!

It's just fun and very fast moving.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The characterisation is random, actions don't have ramifications, and the amount of casual mind-rape and strange racial stuff boggles my mind.

Which I always have to say.

However, it's fun, fast-paced, and racks up a huge body-count.

Someday, there may be a witch on TVD that isn't black or isn't somehow related to Bonnie. I, myself, am uncertain that Gina Torres' character wasn't actually some distant cousin of Bonnie's.

Sometime there might be a black person that isn't a witch or vamp or doesn't die by the end of the episode--come on, you can do it!

So true.
