My dash is full of “Alaric may be alive but it’s his evil alter-ego. Alaric we knew and loved is gone forever.” You know what? You give up so easily. Like there’s no chance in hell that the writers will do something and make Alaric good again. Like there’s no other way to save him. Like you don’t even want the characters to fight for the good Alaric. Like you don’t want to fight. Have you been watching the show? I thought that one of the main messages of the show is that there’s always a way no matter how hard it seems and that we should always fight.
Really, I didn’t expect the fandom to give up on Alaric so easily. Or maybe it’s just me being stupid for still believing that somewhere along the way Alaric will be okay again.
The whole funeral scene and Damon bunging the empty bottle symbolize the end but then again, there’s this conversation between Stefan and Elena which as I believe referred not only to Stelena but also to Alaric and everyone else. There’s always hope.
Everyone saved everyone on multiple occasions when there seemed to be no way out. Why are you giving up now? I am usually the kind who gives up on everything but now… No, thank you. I keep believing and I will only stop believing when Alaric dies and there’s no chance he comes back to life.
E! Online has released the new TVD poster for this season’s finale “The Departed”.
What’s up with this rose? Firstly, I made this gifset to show that the rose in the poster can be somehow connected with Delena. Just like a little hint. Nothing specific, maybe. This may be telling us about love (as one of definitions of a red rose). Secondly, we should all pay attention to the color. The rose is half red and half black and white. The rose seems to be bleeding or dying which leads us to another definition: life. Or maybe sacrifice and blood. It seems as though blood is dripping off the rose down. Rose is the only colored fragment of the entire poster. Thirdly, where exactly did CW put the rose in the poster? This rose is situated on Nina’s cheek and its red part begins somewhere near Nina’s lips. And this may be a some kind of metaphor for Elena becoming a vampire or being at risk of turning in the finale.
What’s up with the tear? Tears are caused by different things. It can be either sadness or happiness. It can be inability of the soul to restrain its emotions and to handle things. It can be a cry of unspoken love. Probably Elena makes an important and a very difficult decision because of which she is forced to sacrifice something.
What the heck should “A FUTURE BLOOMS” mean? Usually the verb “bloom” has a positive meaning (“flourish”, “thrive”, “glow with warmth”), so it’s pretty much obvious that a positive future lies ahead for Elena. But what’s the catch, really? “Bloom” is usually applied to flowers (and here we have a symbol of true love/immortal love). In accordance with this, “A future blooms” may stand for “A new (true) love flourishes”. This is about the choice Elena makes in the finale. And if we are talking about “new” love, it is Damon and Elena.
