it will never not be funny to me that out of all of klaus 3 main love interest, hope ended up having a better relationship with aurora than cami or caroline 😭 aurora took the step mother title CK and KC stans have been trying to claim for their fave for a decade!

It's hilarious to me too tbh

Like, Cami only knew Hope for the first two years of her life and while she probably loved her as if she was her own daughter, Hope didn't remember her at all and everything she knew about her were things Hayley told her (because it's canon that Hayley told Hope about Cami and Jackson, a producer said it a long time ago) and the only time Hope mentioned Camille was so offputting. It's clear she didn't really have an opinion of her, and I honestly can't blame her.

With Caroline is even more strange, because apparently Hope always had been a troubled kid in school and the only close relationship she had with an adult was Alaric, because if she was close to Caroline I'm pretty sure Lizzie would had mentioned it. So they weren't close, and asides from Hope wanting to belong into the Saltzman family because her own family didn't give a damn about her, that's all they were to each other more or less. Perhaps they could get closer as she's now the headmistress, but Hope already has a mother figure in Freya and I don't see them having a mother-daughter bond, just being good friends because Hope loved Klaus and despite everything her father did to her, Caroline definitely wouldn't be throwing every single one of his sins in her face like Alaric did.

But the last moments between Aurora and Hope are heartwarming, their whole dynamic was so touching and it proved Rory could definitely had loved her if they were given the chance. I mean, in the few days she was with Klaus in the modern world she definitely knew about his then baby daughter and considering they were together/kind of, I'm pretty sure she thought about the fact that she would become her stepmother. That didn't end up happening, but still. After all, she did see the best parts of Klaus in Hope.

In short words, Aurora had spent her whole life hating the Mikaelson family and loving and despising Klaus in equal manners, so having her give her life for Hope was such a good way to end her character. Imagine Hope, who had grown - mostly - only hearing bad things from her father be told he wasn't pure evil and that she wasn't either.

Either way, Tristan must be rolling on his grave as we speak lmao

klaus masterlist

Klaus had never encountered a girl more enchanting than the Lady Y/N. He still dreamt of her, even after all these years. The traces of lavender and vanilla in the tresses of her hair. Her glowing smile accompanied by the dimple in her right cheek. Her bright eyes and how he swore they held the stars in them. She was magnificence personified. And that haunted him.

Klaus was laid on the field with Y/N's head on his chest. His fingers ran through her hair as she drew light patterns on him with her fingertips. "If only we could remain like this forever," Y/N spoke. She thought of returning to the castle, seeing the faces of the family that had resented her since she'd killed her mother in childbirth. She thought of how unloved and unappreciated she'd felt her entire life. And then she thought about the man next to her, and how he had been the one to see everything they hadn't. "I know, my love. But I promise you, one day, we will marry. And we will have all the time in the world to adore each other."

He was also haunted by the reminder that he'd lost her. How she'd told him that she loved him and that she'd spend her whole life running with him if it meant that they could be together forever. But Klaus refused, knowing Mikael would destroy her the same way he had destroyed Klaus. And she was too precious to him to ever put in harm's way. So he let her go. He let her go just as he'd been forced to let go of everything his heart had ever desired, all in the name of Mikael.

"Niklaus, please. Make me like you. Strong, powerful. That way you won't have to worry about my safety as you do now. We can run from Mikael together. I cannot bear the thought of him hurting you, or losing you forever. I refuse," she pleaded, her hands cupping his jaw as she looked into the blue orbs of the only man she'd ever loved. Klaus grabbed her wrists gently, "No. You are perfect as you are. And I will only ruin you. So that is why you must remain here where you are safe." He stared into her eyes one last time ensuring the compulsion took, before parting from her for the last time.

Klaus thought back to that night, as he always did. He and his siblings were planning to leave France. He'd been on his way to bid farewell to the woman he loved. The woman he'd been waiting for. The woman he would have to release from the captivity that was his adoration. But all of those thoughts were put on hold as his gaze landed on the floor at the bottom of the steps, where Y/N was lying unconscious with a large gash on her forehead. And he knew that parting from her would be in her best interest, no matter how much it tore him apart inside.

"Y/N! No, no, no!" Klaus exclaimed as he ran to his beloved. He bit into his wrist and pressed it against her lips, praying to whatever god there was out there to allow his blood to save her. He sighed with relief as Y/N slowly regained consciousness, her fingers wrapping around Klaus' wrist as he held her in his arms. When she released his wrist from her lips, she turned to look at him. "What happened to you, my love?" Klaus questioned. "I was in search of you. Rebekah spoke to me of your plans to flee. I could not let you leave, not without me. We belong together, Niklaus. Don't you see?"

Klaus shook off his feelings of regret as he heard someone enter the courtyard. He left his bedroom, walking over to the main area of the compound. He stopped in his tracks as his eyes found her, standing right there in front of him with her arms crossed and an unbothered look on her face. He thought for sure that his paranoia had turned into full-blown hallucinations. It couldn't really be her, could it? A thousand years after he had chosen not to turn her, chosen to set her free from the curse of loving a Mikaelson. "Y/N?"

"I wasn't going to show up here, but Lucien oh-so-graciously reminded me that you aren't too fond of surprises," she spoke, taking a swig of the bourbon she'd poured herself. Klaus took a few steps toward her, choosing not to get too close. "How are you alive?" He questioned. "Mikael came looking for you and your family the night you fled France. Someone took it upon themselves to reveal to him that you and I were...connected. He found me and he drove his sword through my heart when he realized I had no intention of giving up your whereabouts. And thanks to the powers of vampire blood, here I am."

Klaus should have known that Mikael would always find a way to hurt him and his loved ones, no matter what lengths Klaus had gone through to protect them. It was something that never would have changed, had Klaus not defeated him. "I didn't want this for you, Y/N. I didn't," Klaus told her, looking into those same eyes he'd been dreaming about for a millennium. They still held those stars, held the same fire in them. The fire he feared he would have burnt out if he'd stayed with her. "Stop. I didn't come here for this. I only came to make my presence in 'your city' known. That's all," she said, setting her glass down as she began to walk out of the compound.

Klaus watched Y/N as she began to walk away. He watched as he was losing her again, and he knew he had to at least try to stop it. He couldn't let her go again, not after all the years of regret and pain he felt over leaving her. So, he flashed in front of her causing her to jump slightly as she stopped in her tracks. "Get out of my way, Klaus," Y/N said, her tone meaning business. "No. I'm not going to allow myself to lose you again, not when I have the opportunity to stop it." Y/N rolled her eyes, "I'm only here for the prophecy. Once this is all over I'm leaving, and I'll never have to see you again."

Okay. Not gonna lie, that stung. But he understood why she was acting the way she was. After all, he had set the course. But that didn't mean he was done trying. He would never give up on Y/N. "I love you, Y/N," Klaus spoke, looking straight into her eyes. "Don't. You don't get to just tell me you love me after a thousand years like it's nothing," she argued. Klaus raised his hands carefully to rest on her shoulders, "Can you honestly say that you feel nothing for me? Nothing at all?" He looked into those eyes again, and he knew she felt it too. That flame between them was still burning so brightly.

Y/N stared back at Klaus, the man she'd loved with everything in her. And then she came to her senses, breaking their shared gaze and removing herself from his grasp. "A millennium has passed and yet you've been in my heart every single day. Every. Damn. Day. But do you know what else is in my heart, Klaus? The hurt and the pain you caused me when you left me with the family who despised me just for being born. All I had was you, and you chose to leave me. I promised you I would stand by you and you promised me an eternity alone," Y/N explained.

"Because I was an idiot! I let the woman I thought could only ever exist in my dreams slip through my fingers due to my own fear and paranoia!" Klaus exclaimed. "Y/N, I love you. I have loved you since the first day I saw you, and I have loved you every day since then. And if you give me another chance, I swear to you that I will make you happy. I will spend the rest of my immortal life loving you and protecting you. I will give you the life you've always dreamt of, and I will not cause you another moment of pain. Please, Y/N. Don't leave me. Don't leave me here without you, again, because my heart won't bear it."

Y/N's instincts were screaming at her now, 'Run. Run fast. Don't let him suck you into his world again, just to be spat out when you're an inconvenience to him.' But when she looked into the eyes of the man she'd known so well, she knew. She knew he was true. His heart was true. And so was she. So was hers. And so she kissed him with everything in her. Pulling away, breathless, she looked up at him.

"Okay."

Smitten | E.M.

Summary: Lucien's little sister catches the eye of Lord Elijah. Tristan de Martel fills her head with lies to keep them away. They finally talk after week of avoidance.

Guess which season I'm on in The Originals. 😅😅 Not my GIF. Requests welcomed. ❤️

Kiera hummed softly while she walked through the halls of Count de Martels castle. Ever since her brother, Lucien, left to fetch the Count de Guise children she was lonely. She hoped he would be home soon.

Within a few hours, Lucien was back along with the de Guise children. The Count de Martels was suspicious at first, but warmed up to them at the sight of Lady Rebekah. Kiera noticed the other siblings behavior.

Lord Finn was the more serious of the bunch. He only spoke short answers to her. Lord Niklaus was smitten by the Lady Aurora the moment he locked on eyes on her. Lord Kol was sneaky and always seemed to leave the castle. He claimed he was bored.

The lord that captured her attention the most was Lord Elijah. He spoke to her as often as he could. At first, she welcomed the attention. The lord was handsome and kind. He spoke of many wonderful things about his travels. Kiera often looked forward to seeing him.

Unfortunately, Tristan de Martel, the Count's son, noticed the pair. He cornered her one day and spoke of the Lord Elijah just looking for a plaything. He said that she was only a servant and no man of higher standing would ever want her for more than to just warm his bed. That night she ran to her brother and cried.

The next few weeks she avoided Lord Elijah. Her heart was broken. She missed talking to the lord, but she felt betrayed. He spoke so nobly but was only messing with her. Despite his efforts to speak to her she managed to get away from him. One night she could not avoid him.

The Count de Martel threw a small feast outside. Aurora de Martel gave her the night off. This usually meant she was sneaking off with Lord Niklaus. She didn't mind it of course and would never tell a soul. Kiera was happy her friend found someone to make her happy the way Lord Elijah used to with her.

Kiera stood several tall bushes to watch the festivities. She avoided being spotted to not have to work. Lords and Ladies were dancing and talking. They were in high spirits although the ale might have helped them. She searched for Lord Elijah but couldn't spot him.

Sudden movement and noise caught her attention. She turned to see Elijah staring at her. He appeared completely entranced by her. His mouth hung open while he played with a necklace in his hands.

"Lord Elijah," she gasped. "Is there something you need?"

"Forgive me for staring. I do believe that is one of Lady Aurora's old dresses is it not? You look stunning,"

Kiera blushed at his kind words. Her heart fluttered wildly. Her thoughts suddenly spoke louder than her heart. The unkind words spoken by Tristan de Martel replayed loudly.

What would a Lord want with a lowly servant girl?

"I am not one to be toyed with Lord Elijah. Please go back to the party. I have no time for such games," she spat. Her legs carried her farther from him.

"Games? My dear Kiera have I done something for you to speak to me like so?" He asked while following her. She walked to a hallway.

"I am not going to be another notch on your bed," she countered. She turned to look at him. Tears sprung to her eyes. "You have a sister. How could you use me?"

"Use you? My intentions for you have been pure since the day we met at court. Who has poisoned you against me?"

They stared into each other's eyes. He appeared to be genuine. Memories of their past interactions showed him to be a man with a crush. He never did anything to hurt her. She felt like such a fool.

"Tristan de Martel," she whispered. A blush creeping on her face. "He told me that I was a plaything to you and no Lord would ever want me,"

"Good thing I'm no real Lord," he assured her while rubbing a thumb over a tear that slid down. She leaned in close to him but stopped. His breath tickling her face. He leaned in as well and kissed her softly.

Day 15 Mind Games

Finally caught up for whumpril, day 15 on the 15th of April

Familiar faces and back into a past life, Tristan plays mind games with Elias and Elias doesn't stand a chance.

Warning for manipulation and the threat of ignored consent, Tristan and Elias's relationship is a toxic mess.

-----

He made a request he knew would push Elias to far.

“No i can’t-'” Elias snaps suddenly stumbling back from the bed and Tristan before he froze as he realised what he had said.

There was a look of horror before he managed to regain control of himself, “no, i’m sorry, i didn’t mean-” he started back tracking, shaking his head as he returned to his place on the bed. “Whatever you want, sir” he told the watching Tristan as he settled on his knees on the mattress.

Tristan smiled.

He knew he was pushing too soon after Elias’s last strange episode of illness, the boy was barely hiding his exhaustion and sensitivity to touch, he had been working for this since shortly after he had taken the other in.

He wanted Elias to know Tristan would listen to his no, wouldn’t ignore them and use him anyway, wanted the other to see him as something beyond another client from the streets.

Tristan had realised that despite how much work it had taken to get the boy to accept him and everything he had been supplying him since he came to live in the house that was how the boy saw him.

He wouldn’t accept that.

Tristan didn’t want a professional relationship, he didn’t want Elias to be able to hide behind that distance.

He wanted his pet to trust him because then he could break that trust or threaten to and watch Elias shake.

He wanted his pet to lean into his touch, because then he could withhold that touch.

He wanted his pet to want to please him, so Elias would crave his attention without Tristan even asking.

He wanted his pet to love him.

And he was going to get what he wanted, he had hundreds of years playing these games and Elias, his poor sweet Elias despite the intelligence he had and how jaded he had become after years on the street and whatever came before, was a drug reliant teenager.

So he ran a hand down the teenager’s back until the tenseness faded,

“It’s ok, you can trust me.” he told him in a soft calm voice,

“I- just, Sir?” Elias looked at him with wide eyes, confusion clear, it was an expression he had never seen on Elijah Mikaelson but one he was learning to enjoy.

“You can tell me when it’s too much, you still need to recover right?” he asked gently as he soothed the young man.

Elias nodded at him, his eyes never leaving him looking for any trace of a lie and Tristan almost grinned as he caught a moment of awe, instead he carefully moved the other to lie by his side, resting his head on his shoulder and threading his fingers though silky soft hair.

“Will have to arrange your punishment when you're feeling better.” he told him, keeping the smirk that wanted to show to himself as the boy looked up at him, with wariness but not fear.

It wouldn't do to surprise the other with it, he wanted Elias to trust him to hear him and with his lines but remember his place as Tristan’s plaything.

“You take it so well.” he complimented, showing only soft fondness as he gently placed a kiss on the other’s forehead.

The natural eagerness to please within Elias did nothing but help Tristan’s plans as Elias’s cheeks flushed and he looked away, unthinking curling further into Tristan and with it falling further into his grasp.

He didn't stand a chance, but soon Elias would be happier this way, with Tristan being the only thing that mattered to him.

‘ G o r g e o u s ’

Tristan De Martel x ImmortalWitch!Reader .

“ I’m not stupid, Y/N. I know that you’re in love with my brother. ” Aurora says with a playful smirk.

I sigh, staring blankly up at the art that littered the ceiling of the newest Strix mansion.

“ It doesn’t matter, Aurora. He’ll only ever see me as a colleague. He’s made it more than clear. ”

“ Don’t be so sure. He doesn’t keep just anyone around this long. ” She replies with a wink, her lavish accent shining through.

I lift my glass of bourbon to my crimson red painted lips, quickly guzzling the overpowering liquid.

“ Whatever. ” I say with a sigh, trying to appear nonchalant. “ Let’s talk about something else. Have you picked a gown yet for the next gala? ”

“ Not yet, should we make a trip to the city this weekend? surely my elder brother can excuse you for a few hours. ” she purrs, smiling.

“ I’m sure that can be arranged! ” I smile, straightening my charcoal mini skirt.

I see aurora glance at the door, instantly knowing who it is. I turn to see none other than Tristan De Martel, so magnetic it was almost obnoxious.

Walking towards Aurora and I. She stands to greet him, wrapping her arms around his taller frame as I stand there, trying not to stare.

“ Y/N, darling im glad you could make it! I assumed you’d be arriving Monday, along with Aya. ” He says, angelic in the way his raspy voice echoes off the walls as he ever so gently grabs my hand, kissing the back.

“ Well, I figured i’d surprise you. ” I say with a smile, before he starts talking with the lovely Aurora.

A true work of art in his black pea coat, fragrant of luxurious vanilla cologne and foreign cigars.

“ Can I make you a drink, Tristan? ” I offer, tucking a lose strand of hair behind my ear.

“ Yes, please. Thank you sweetheart. ” He purrs, smiling in my direction before continuing his conversation with his younger sister.

I walk over to the large, fully stocked bar, grabbing a clean glass and a fresh bottle of scotch. Aurora was right, I am *so* whipped. A faux sense of hope washes over me, as I can’t help but think about what it would be like to be loved by the Strix leader.

But alas, i’m not. To him, im just another person who runs around doing his bidding.

But a girl can dream, right ?

. . .

‘ you’re so gorgeous , i cant say anything to your face. ‘cause look at your face! ’

62 - To Getting Rebekah Back

Part 63

Gemini Runaway

Tag list ask to be added @icefrye19 @secretdreamlandmentality

Dragging Aurora's limp body into a room of the Mikealson's compound I threw her against the wall while we waited for her to come back. Flipping my hair out of my face I scoffed leaning against the wall. "I don't see why we can't just do a mind dive on her like Klaus did with me when I was still a witch."

Freya began burning some sage in a circle in the middle of the room. "I'm shocked you're thinking about the safer option. A few minutes ago you wanted to kill her."

"Oh please. She's annoying me enough where I still want to kill her." Snapping my gaze downward to her slumping my shoulders. "But she's the only one who knows where Bex is."

She nodded her head seeing that she was waking up. "Took you long enough."

"Oh, are we to play a fun game?" Aurora asked, lifting her head up.

Freya burned some more sage around her. "Actually, yes, and now that my spell has made it so that no one can hear what happens…"

"Cause in case you missed it we're gonna have a lot of fun." Bending my knees I grabbed her chin in my nails flashing my fangs.

Aurora smiled up at me. "Raelyn, how I wish I could adore your flair. I can't forget the fact that you gave him what I couldn't."

"Ohh well I can rub it in your face after you tell us where Bex is." I wined releasing her chin from my hand.

Aurora made a nose looking at Freya now. "Oh, ok, so then what, pray tell, are we doing here?"

"I think I'll leave my sister in law to tell you what's next." She sat the sage down when I rose to my feet.

Crossing my arms over my chest I smirked wickedly at the vampire girl. "You're gonna tell us where to find Rebekah, or we're going to kill you."

Aurora made a disappointing face. "Oh. Hmm."

Raising my hand up I snapped my fingers drawing her up to me holding her by her throat. "Where's my sister in law?"

"Not telling." She snapped.

"Ah sha lana!" I responded where she grabbed her head falling on the ground.

"Still…not…telling." She groaned.

Turning on my heels I launched one hand forward, breaking her legs together at once. "Tenebris lapsus!"

Aurora fell on the ground but she began laughing where Freya stepped up, beginning spells of her own on her. She launched her around the room like a rag doll for hours. Until she landed against the dresser panting. "Uh!...Is that the best you've got?"

"Until I can kill you yes!" Baring my teeth together in frustration I clutched my hands into fists causing some fire in one hand. "Incendia! I'm gonna ask you again... where is Rebekah?"

She smirked, rising to her feet before Freya snapped her fingers causing her entire body to feel pain. "You're quite strong for an infant."

Vamping up to her I punched her across the face. Aurora ran towards me where we went back and forth hitting one another until I slammed her against the wall. “Ah! Uh... Uh... Uh! Ah! Uh! Uh! Ah! Agh! Oh! Rrgh! Ha! Ah! Uh! Huh!”

Freya clutched her hand forward causing the red head to hold her head yelling in pain for a few minutes. “Whoo! Ha ha ha! That actually hurt. Ha ha! Oh, I haven't felt pain since the 1700s... kind of tickles... and for that, I'm gonna make you suffer.”

“No you’re not actually.” I grabbed her by her shoulders siphoning from her.

She winced sharply. “Huh! Agh!”

"How about a werewolf bite, you psychotic, little bitch? Cause I know someone who doesn't have a relationship with you. Motus !" Growling in her ear I released her into the wall.

Aurora smirked where I wanted to snap her neck right then. “By all means if only I can laugh in your face when Nik heals me.”

Freya glanced at my direction growling through her labored breath. “Maybe Klaus would heal you, but I doubt he would heal your brother. Why don't you have your werewolf Hayley bite him instead?”

I smiled at the red head. “Hmm, that’s not a bad thought.”

Aurora threatened, crossing her arms over her chest proudly. “No one should dare harm my brother... Seeing as you're all going to need him if you want your precious Rebekah back.”

Our group was back in the dining room with Lucien clicking his tongue. “Longitude and latitude. Lovely.”

Tristan clinked his galls with his sister. “Well, despite our differences, I believe great strides were made today.”

Aurora smiled. “Hmm.”

Elijah made a threat sitting back down at the table. “Tristan, I can't murder you this very moment, but I could just as easily tear those eyeballs from your skull and feed them to your sister.”

Klaus warns him with me leaning against the armrest of his king chair. “Elijah, these are our guests.”

Aurora said back. “ Nik, it's so sweet of you to defend us.”

“Don’t get too comfortable with the idea!” I warned her by crossing my arms over my chest.

“You know, I doubted my brother's wisdom in bringing us all together today, but he was right. We must confront the harsh realities we all face and make difficult choices... To ensure our collective survival... And I have every confidence that my choice... Will be the right one.” Klaus got to his feet moving behind Tristian suddenly snapping his neck.

Aurora gasps at what he had done when he threatened her sternly. "Were you anyone else, the servants would already be mopping your blood from the floor. If you do not bring my sister home, Tristan will die slowly and in tremendous pain."

Aurora croaked through tears. “You betray me after all your promises of love.”

Nik raised his voice at her getting in her face threatening her to bring her home. “I meant to keep those promises! It was you who shattered them when you took Rebekah! Now I have your brother, a sibling for a sibling. I want Rebekah back.”

Aurora got in his face vamping away. “You will regret this. Huh!”

Freya asked him with me standing by her hip. “After everything today, you just let her go?”

Elijah reassured her. “Aurora should be easy enough to control. We have Tristan now.”

Klaus shifted closer to his vampire flashing his golden wolf eyes into his. “Lucien... You will take me to Camille, and you will surrender the medallion, or you will meet an end so cruel, the devil will weep.”

Stomping around the knocked out vampire I didn't bother wasting time vamping to his place. The elevator door opened quickly where I noticed that Cami was waiting outside holding a daylight ring. “Cami, we have to go now.”

“I took that vampire guy's daylight ring. He can’t get out until dark.” She told me to hold it up.

Taking her hand in I rushed us back to the elevator tapping my foot nervously until the door opened again and I gasped under my breath. "Aurora, shit!"

"Hello again, Raelyn." She smiled wickedly. "You must be Cami."

Cami's heartbeat began to race in our vampire ears. "Raelyn, what do we do?"

"Don't worry. I can take her!" I revealed my fangs and the veins under my fangs to her.

Aurora backed us into a corner when she revealed something from behind her back. In her hands was a stake and a vial of some liquid that I could only assume must be werewolves venom or something. "Oh on the contrary dear girl. You see she won't be getting the upper hand against me this time."

"What the hell are you going to do to me?" I growled shielding Cami with my body. "Leave Cami out of this."

The red head shook her head. "Sorry not an option. You see, I need her for my plan."

"Raelyn - uh!" Cami grunted when Aurora shoved a needle in her body to the floor.

I attempted to vamp at her but she pressed the tip of the stake over my heart. "Ah ah not so fast, darling. You might be a witch but I can still stake you and kill you with this."

"You really are a bitch. Why are you doing this?" I bared my teeth.

She leans forward. "Cause I won't let you keep my lover from me. Now either you come with me willingly or I kill Cami right now."

"Why you little -" I cut myself off when she moved the stake over her human heart in a taunting way. "Huh…fine."

Aurora grinned, dragging the blonde human towards the doorway. "Excellent."

"Dic mihi, hva du vet…" I mumbled praying that she didn't hear me do my mind spell before I followed her through the elevator. "Nik, please find us before Aurora kills me or Cami. We need you."

Comments really appreciated ❤️

A trembling chess board about to fall. And the last look you give when you are forced to realize it is over. Everything following this point, he makes sure is about his sister. This is the final glance Tristan allowed himself. I wrote about Tristan and endings before. As a follow up to that: I think it is very harmoniously thematic for Hayley's promise to Tristan before sending him to drown in the ocean to be "You will be forgotten." And to encounter him again because, even after all coherent, practical methods of keeping him on the board are gone, The Strix had not given up on him. Tristan's last declarations of difference between him and Elijah are some of those quotes I don't insanely over-analyze all that much compared to others. And that's because I think they are instances of Tristan sincerely expressing his view without any other persuasion or double meaning involved: "You realize that I'm here because my people love me? You're here because those very same people loathe you. You have driven them to this." "... But nothing more important than how to not be you. Where you betray, I remain loyal. Where you abandon, I remain." Tristan is...Wicked. In numerous ways. But amid that viciousness I always enjoyed that he stays truthful to his very particular set of exclusively personal loyalties and extremely singular interpretation of honor. In a way it is a bittersweet end for someone even Elijah describes as "pathologically devoted", assuring danger in his kind of acute loyalty. I think in the end it would have meant something for him. To know that after all those centuries his Strix were willing to try to return the favor.

What's a TVDU pairing that isn't canon (possibly never met or limited interaction), that you think would have worked and why?

Splendid question!

So, as we all know, TVDU has the potential to create several friendships/romances beyond what canon can ever achieve. Sadly, those dunderheads of writers never thought to explore such enriching possibilities. This is why we have fanfiction and places like Archive Of Our Own, Fanfiction.Net, and Tumblr and we make those possibilities come true! (hence, the meaning of our otherwise 'bleh' existence)

With that said, here are some of the pairings (non-canon, obviously) that would have definitely worked well. I'm not limiting myself to just TVD or TO or even TL, it's a mix of everyone. Please note that these pairings will seem peculiar as most of the characters involved in the pairing have never met each other or have met each in passing.

a disclaimer: this is extremely long!

1. CAMILLE O'CONNELL & LORENZO ST.JOHN

Both of the characters radiate a home-like feeling. They both care about their loved ones a lot (Cami with Klaus, Hayley, and Davina; Enzo with Bonnie and Caroline) and always encourage them to be the better versions of themselves (Cami with Klaus, Enzo with Bonnie). If both of them would've got the chance to meet, both of them would've worked pretty well as friends and lovers. Plus, can you even imagine the playful banter that comes with a package like this? Simply golden!

2. FREYA MIKAELSON & BONNIE BENNETT (& VINCENT GRIFFITH, optional)

On TVD, there might have been some moments where Bonnie would've felt like the odd one out. She was the only witch in the group until the Heretics arrived and caused mayhem in Mystic Falls. Bonnie also never had a proper mentor to finetune her witchy skills.

On TO, Freya was also in a similar situation when she got to interact with her family. Compared to her siblings, she never actually had friends.

If Freya and Bonnie ever had the chance to meet up, I'm sure they would've been great together. Bonnie could've become more mature and powerful than she was in TVD and Freya would've finally had a friend. Not to mention, chats with Vincent about witchcraft and practices would've been very much enlightening as we never got the characters actually having a logical conversation about the magic that existed in their universe.

(I should include Davina, but she doesn't seem compatible with Bonnie. Even if you consider S5 Davina, she still wouldn't be compatible with either of them because of her immaturity.)

3. STEFAN SALVATORE & MARCEL GERARD

Look, I admit, I have a love-hate relationship with Stefan. The dude's okay, but he has a MAJOR addiction problem. He had Lexi to help him fight back his Ripper self but actually never combat his addiction. He had a staunch friend in the form of Lexi but lost her as well at the hands of his brother. That's when Marcel comes in.

If Stefan ever actually got the chance to remove himself from the shadow of the teen drama that raged on for 8 seasons straight, he would've found a friend in Marcel.

Marcel loves helping vampires. From teaching compulsion to moderating feeding habits, he's always there. If Marcel knew about Stefan's problems, he would've helped him actually combat both his addiction and his Ripper ways. Plus, Stefan would've become a much better person mingling with vampires under Marcel's influence.

4. DAMON SALVATORE & LUCIEN CASTLE

From an antagonistic point of view, if Damon and Lucien ever got together, they would've caused chaos on a scale never known in the history of the world of vampirism. Together, both of them would've been a serious headache for besties Klaus and Stefan and pretty much every other character in the universe.

5. KATHERINE PIERCE & AURORA DE MARTEL

Similar to Damon and Lucien, Katherine and Aurora would've caused similar mayhem, even more than the males could've achieved in their dreams. Their only conflict would be about how to handle Klaus since Katherine wants Klaus dead and Aurora wants Klaus all to herself.

6. KLAUS MIKAELSON AND LORENZO ST. JOHN (& ELIJAH MIKAELSON along with KOL MIKAELSON and REBEKAH MIKAELSON, optional)

Read the names, pretty self-explanatory 😂 Klaus and Enzo are a bit similar. Both of them think the same, except Klaus is crazier than Enzo. Kol and Enzo are level-headed at times but are similarly mischievous. Elijah and Enzo would become great friends and extremely protective of each other. Also, Rebekah would've taken an interest in Enzo and if both of them eventually got to be together, they'd be extremely healthy for each other.

7. ALARIC SALTZMAN & VINCENT GRIFFITH (& JENNA SOMMERS, if she ever got to survive)

Alaric, Jenna, and Vincent have that fierce protectiveness in common. Sometimes, Vincent and Alaric share the same views about the Mikaelsons. The three of them could start a club offering free therapy and just dissing the Mikaelsons and how they've basically upended their lives. Also, the three of them can help each other protect their respective loved ones.

8. JENNA SOMMERS & JOSETTE LAUGHLIN

At this rate, I don't care about Ric. Jo and Jenna should've got a chance to meet. Both of them could've taken care of Elena and Jeremy much better. They also could've helped Elena get away from the Salvatores and stick to herself or just court Bonnie or Rebekah.

9. MARCEL GERARD & JEREMY GILBERT

Let's be clear, Jeremy needed a male parent figure in his life. Someone who was very mature and somewhat father-like, and no one's more than perfect for that job than Marcel. He would've made Jeremy stronger and taught him to defend himself. Plus, Jeremy would've got a chance to mature under Marcel's tutelage.

10. TYLER LOCKWOOD & JACKSON KENNER

These two should've got a chance to meet. Both are werewolves with alpha-like qualities and a fierce passion for their birthright and for the people they love. Regardless of Hayley's actions against Tyler, Jackson and Tyler would've got along very well. Jackson could've helped Tyler with his anger issues and besides Aiden, Jackson would've found a friend to confide to.

11. CAROLINE FORBES & JOSHUA ROSZA

Caroline and Josh would've been hilarious together. Can you imagine Josh making Caroline laugh? Can you imagine Josh backing away from Caroline freaking out about her planners being missing? Can you? Because I can, and I'm laughing.

Plus, it would be nice if Caroline let some steam off instead of being unwillingly available for the men on the show.

12. JEREMY GILBERT & DAVINA CLAIRE

Both of them are the actual residential teenagers on the show who are always underestimated and misunderstood. Jeremy and Davina would've made the hunter and witch pairing, both despising the Mikaelsons but also loving Elena and Marcel.

13. ELENA GILBERT & AIDEN LAURENT & JOSHUA ROSZA

From Elena's character analysis, I feel she prefers quiet friendships. She has a raucous friendship with Caroline but a quiet one with Bonnie, if you get what I'm saying. She works well with the latter. I'm not saying she doesn't work well with Caroline at all, just that Elena works well with calming presences.

Here's when Aiden and Josh come in. Both of them, in a way, can help Elena see the happiness in her life. They are also some of the most wonderful people who Elena can talk with. Plus, Elena would make a brilliant Captain of the Aiden/Josh ship.

14. ELENA GILBERT & FREYA MIKAELSON

Elena has a higher level of self-awareness and thinking. It's pretty clear how introspective she can actually be. The same is with Freya. Both of them need someone who looks extremely young and yet, is an old soul. I feel Freya and Elena, to some extent, will be very healthy for each other.

15. ELENA GILBERT & JACKSON KENNER

Elena and Jackson, again, are very much similar in terms of compassion and protectiveness. They have a common ground I feel Jackson could've made Elena see things clearly about the decisions she always made. Not romantic decisions though, important decisions about her life. Both of them could've had a warm brother-sister dynamic.

16. ELENA GILBERT & CAMILLE O'CONNELL & HAYLEY MARSHALL and BONNIE BENNETT & CAROLINE FORBES & DAVINA CLAIRE

If you notice in TVD and TO, we have two primary trios. One trio is on TVD, consisting of Caroline, Bonnie, and Elena. The other trio is on TO, consisting of Cami, Hayley, and Davina.

The trios are wonderful in their original form. But, I feel like if Elena and Davina had been switched, it would've changed the characters toward a positive direction.

Bonnie would've helped Davina become level-headed and mature. Caroline and Davina could bicker but still kick some ass. Davina could've taught Bonnie and Caroline about the NOLA supernatural culture.

In the other trio, Cami could've helped Elena process her grief and opened her up to happiness. Hayley could've made Elena see things clearly about her romances and help her make the right decisions. Hayley and Elena could've taught some fighting skills to Cami. The three of them could've helped each other adjust to vampirism. Plus, Elena needs more mature company, and Cami and Hayley seem to be good for her.

Don't get me wrong, Baroline are amazing for Elena, but Cami and Hayley could've made Elena a much better person and helped her break the sire bond (which was still there the entire time! for those who disagree, argue with the wall).

18. JENNA SOMMERS & CAMILLE O'CONNELL & KEELIN MALRAUX

The three of them share an experience in the field of medicine and academics. This trio could've worked out very well for each other and would've helped the other characters maintain their heads in a heated situation.

19. ELENA GILBERT & MARCEL GERARD

Again, pretty self-explanatory. Marcel could've helped Elena adjust to vampirism much better than how Damon and Stefan 'helped'. Elena, in turn, could've helped Marcel loosen up and actually enjoy his life in the city without worrying about the Mikaelsons or practically anyone else. Plus, if they ever evolved into a romance, can you imagine Marcel serenading Elena (or vice versa) with jazz? Because I can and THEY LOOK PRECIOUS.

20. MALACHAI PARKER & LUCIEN CASTLE (or TRISTAN DE MARTEL, optional)

They're all psychos, ergo, they have the potential to cause (extreme) chaos for the main characters. Case closed.

21. ELENA GILBERT & HOPE MIKAELSON

Elena and Hope are VERY similar. Both are powerful, wanted brunettes on their respective shows. Both lost their parents. Both are very similar with feelings of grief and loss and rage. Hope is kind, Elena is compassionate. Both would make a wonderful aunt-niece/mother-daughter duo.

22. REBEKAH MIKAELSON & NORA & MARY-LOUISE

Come on, the bitchy banter about Queen Victoria's funeral would be priceless.

23. Elijah Mikaelson & Valerie Tulle (moderately) 24. Jenna Sommers & Lorenzo St. John (definitely!)

HONOURABLE MENTION,

ELENA GILBERT and THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS (we deserved this, she's a jazz fanatic and that's canon 😭)

These are the non-canon pairings which I feel, if they ever got the chance to meet each other, would've worked well.

If you think there's another pairing that would work well (and I didn't mention it), feel free to commento!

Thank you for your question! Have a wonderful day/night ahead of you <33
