No one tells me how I live my life, no one tells me who I love, especially not some vindictive prehistoric witch and definitely not the universe, and I'm not gonna let someone else's idea of destiny stop me from loving you, or being with you, or building a future with you; because you are my life.

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES (2009-2017)
[Caption: gifs from The Vampire Diaries. In a parade in New Orleans, Klaus takes out his phone to call Caroline, reaching her voicemail. He says his name, smiling to himself, unable to contain it during the call. He tells her, “I’m standing in one of my favourite places in the world. Surrounded by food, music, art, culture, and… all I can think about is how much I want to show it to you.” He says that maybe one day, she will let him do so, and hangs up before walking away with a grin on his face.]
[Caption: gifs from The Vampire Diaries. Caroline and Tyler walk in the woods together. Tyler mentions that Matt is “bumming pretty hard” after his breakup with Caroline; Caroline says that she knows, and feels compelled to add that it’s better that way. Tyler tells her he gets it; incredulous, she almost scoffs “You do?” and Tyler replies in the affirmative, saying that Caroline can’t be honest with Matt. Caroline stops and turns around to look at him, losing the skeptical expression, as Tyler adds that it’s not fair to be with someone and not let them know who you are. Caroline looks down and back at Tyler, speechless, and he repeats that he gets it, leaving her staring after him.]
