#Camcel

[highly-flammable]

You know what, as much as I love all the Klamille scenes from 3x19, I do not like how they made her death all about Klaus. All of her friends had to take a step back and lose their chances of saying goodbye while she could still have interacted with them, and that was SO NOT right.

Cami was Klaus’ love interest, and as much as it annoys me to say it, a lot of her arc was wrapped up in Klaus, but she held value as a character outside of him. She supported other characters (Marcel, Davina, Vincent, Hayley) and looked out for them frequently. They were all busy running around trying to find a cure for her, which was important, but the writing did not have to be such that she didn’t get to bid adieu to these friends she loved so much.

To me, this feels like the writers having to compensate for putting so much unnecessary drama in Cami and Klaus’ relationship and never letting them just be happy together for a little while. When the time came for them to kill her off, they had to scramble to put in scenes which would appease angry fans a bit and give their relationship a satisfying conclusion.

We deserved scenes of Cami telling other characters what she wanted them to get from her, not just her saying it all to Klaus. We deserved to see her hear that she meant so much to all of them, because of how much comfort and joy she brought into their lives. Right before she died, she was self-deprecatingly telling Klaus that she wished she had done more than serve a few drinks and fail completely as his therapist, which he refuted, but she still only heard what she did for him. She deserved to hear all of the things others were saying to her dead body, while she was alive.

All in all, my girl deserved so much better. She did get a beautiful episode dedicated to her when she was unfairly killed off, but there was more that should have been done.

you said you only really like marbekah/rebel as a consolation prize for marcel basically so who do you like marcel and rebekah with instead?

I don't think I worded it like that but, yeah, sorta.

So the thing about the thing with Marcel is I am batshit and I liked him with Sofya and Aya, to be real. Him and Cami could've been good in theory. I was also open to him and Sophie getting back together (I don't wanna talk about it).

The thing about the thing with Rebekah is that all of her ships, within a canon lens, suck ass. They have potential outside of canon but as far as Jpec and the crew handled it, meh. But, out of the people she canonically showed interest in, my ranking would be: Damon, Stefan, Tyler, Nadia and Matt.

No hate to Matt (genuinely this time) or anything but with where they took his character, she would've gotten tired of him. Very quickly. Tyler is just my agenda for hot bitches being together. I think he'd be sick of her shit eventually, especially with her codependent ass relationship with her family.

I think it'd be funny if Katherine had to deal with Rebekah and Nadia fucking. Sorry.

Damon and Stefan are the more serious options, here. I enjoyed Stefan and Rebekah's hooking up and whatnot as well as their 20s fling and I think that they have a fondness for each other in present day. That being said, I don't think Stefan would have dated Rebekah in current day with his humanity fully intact. And also, I think he was more attracted to Klaus. I am not immune to unhealthy dynamics presented to me with bloodshed, sorry.

Damon and Rebekah is my final answer, I guess. I think they love in a similar way and have traits that complement each other. If Damon hadn't been in love with Elena by the time Rebekah had been introduced, I do think something could've came of that. Of course, they'd have to work through the whole Stefan issue, but I'm starting to think that's some kind of kink for the Salvatores, so it's whatever.

Final (serious) answers:

Marcel: Aya, Sofya, Sophie.

Rebekah: Damon, Stefan, Nadia.

Crack answers that have no basis in canon (to you. I know them personally): Rebekah and Enzo, Marcel and Jenna (I don't wanna talk about it!).

~ Feverish ~

Simon petrikov x gn!reader

Brief summary - you have a bad fever, and Simon comes over and cares for you.

︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵

You woke up feeling terrible, your nose was stuffy, your throat was sore, you were shivering, you sat up putting your arms around yourself for warmth, you got up and walked to the bathroom, you did your normal morning routine, you looked in the mirror.

"I feel like shit.. I look like it, too.."

You said, your voice was hoarse and you audibly sounded stuffy.

"Sound like shit..."

You said and yawned a bit. You went out to the kitchen where you had a meditation cabinet. You pulled out a thermometer and took your temperature.

"Holly.. I'm going back to bed.."

You were running a high fever, luckily you always had medicine just in case you were sick. You took some for your stuffy nose but didn't have anything that helped a fever.. you sighed and walked back into your room. You laid down and pulled the covers over you. You felt very cold. You suddenly remembered that you made plans with simon for later in  the day, You grabbed your phone that was on the bedside table and texted simon

'Hey, Im so sorry to camcel but jm very sick rn.. I have a hih fever'

You started to fall asleep as you typed. You sent it without noticing the typos and fell asleep. You woke up to your phone ringing, you answered

"..hello?"

You were groggy still and felt a little woozy due to the fever. You rubbed your eyes and yawned.

"I saw your message.. are you alright?"

Simon answered, and he sounded slightly worried.

"I'm fine.."

You said as you fell back asleep, you still had your phone up to your ear.

"You sound tired.. try to get some rest, ok?"

He said and heard quite snoring from his phone. He smiled and let out a small sigh.

"... You already are.... sweet dreams.."

He said, hanging up the phone. Simon finished up with his exhibit, closing it early. He started to walk to your house and on the way he started to think about making you soup. He walked over to the nearest market and bought all the ingredients he needed.

He got to your house and opened the door. He walked inside, making sure he was quiet so he would disturb you. He walked to the kitchen and started to cook. He cut up the vegetables and boiled some water, humming as he cooked.

You woke up to the smell of food and walked out to the kitchen. You were still half asleep. You walked up to simon and put your arms around him.

"..Mmm... I love you.."

You mumbled, pressing your body against him. Simon's face turned bright red when you said that,

You clearly meant it in a platonic way, right?

Simon thought and started to overthink. He had been battling his feelings for you for a while, only recently entertaining the idea in his head.

The sound of you snoring quietly snapped him out of thought.

"You poor thing.."

Simon said, turning around. He had an arm around you so you wouldn't fall over.

"You're that sick, huh?"

He looked at you. He looked concerned. He didn't know how you were sleeping standing up. He picked you up and started to carry you back to bed.

You woke up, confused. You couldn't tell if this was a dream or not.

"simonnn..I..I don't feel good.."

You whined.

"I know...I know.."

He said, putting you down in the bed and pulling the covers around you. He put his hand on your face, rubbing your cheek with his thumb. He quickly pulled away when he realized what he was doing and stood up.

"I gotta go back to the stove.. I'll be back soon, ok?"

He said with a gentle smile. You grumbled a bit and frowned, you were pouting.

He blushed slightly. You were being way too cute for him.

"Go to sleep. You won't even notice I'm gone"

You nodded, your eyes were already closed, and you quickly fell asleep. He sighed and walked out of your bedroom.

"Focus, simon! ...You're here to take care of them...."

He mumbled to himself as he returned to the stove. He focused back on cooking. He stirred the pot a bit and tasted it.

"Mm Almost ready.."

He said with a smile. He got a bowl down and waited for the soup to be done. When it was, he turned off the stove and scooped out some in a bowl. He grabbed you a spoon and walked into your room. He sat down the bowl on your bedside table and gently shook you awake.

"Hey... I made you some soup."

You whined slightly when he woke you up, and you sat up and rubbed your eyes.

He put some pillows behind you to prop you up. He handed you the bowl of soup. You grabbed it and hunched over it, putting the bowl closer to your face. Simon sat down at the foot of your bed watching you eat. He was worried about if you liked the soup or not. He looked at you, looking for an indicator that you liked it.

"Mmm.. good soup.."

You mumbled in-between bites. Simon sighed in relief. He was glad you liked it. When you were done, you sat it down on the bedside table. He got up and tried to grab the bowl, but you grabbed his wrist.

"Simon.. come here.."

You mumbled sleepily and squeezed his wrist slightly. You didn't want him to leave you alone.

He leaned on the bed and looked over at you.

"Yes?"

He said, tilting his head a bit. You grumbled, you wanted him closer.

"Simon.."

You whined, squeezing his wrist a bit more.

"What is it? Do you need something?"

He smiled sweetly. He found you calling him adorable.

You put your arms around him and pulled him in the bed. You were surprisingly strong in your feverish and loopy state.

"W-What are you doing?"

Simon said, falling on top of you. He caught himself so he would squish you.

You pulled him closer, making him lay on top of you. You just wanted some comfort when your whole body hurt and when you couldn't think.

Simon tried to gently move off of you. He thought he would make your fever worse, but you squeezed him tighter, not letting him move.

"Alright.. alright.."

He mumbled. He felt his cheeks burn. You nuzzled your head into his neck, making him even more flustered. You fell asleep, snoring slightly.

He started to think.

this is just platonic, right? No way you liked him.. friends did this all the time!

He convinced himself. He took his glasses off and put them on the bedside table. He closed his eyes, trying to go to sleep.

In the morning, you woke up, keeping your eyes closed. You grumbled slightly. You didn't wanna be awake. You felt that your fever had calmed down a bit. You were actually having coherent thoughts.

You were so loopy and out of it yesterday you could barely think. You couldn't remember if what happened yesterday was a dream or not.

You realized that something heavy was on your chest. You opened your eyes and looked down at Simon. Well, this part wasn't a dream. you blushed, feeling embarrassed about yesterday. Simon rolled off of you and sat up slowly. He rubbed his eyes. Simon looked over at you.

"How long have you been awake?"

He said in a sleepy voice. He looked over at you, squinting so he could see a little better.

"Uh.. couple of minutes..give or take.."

You said, sitting up on the bed, smiling at him.

"How's your fever...?"

"Better, I don't feel out of it anymore.. I can actually think"

You said, giggling a bit. He blinked, trying to wake up. He was thinking about what you said. It took him a bit to process it since he just woke up.

"Oh, that's great!"

He said as he woke up a bit more. You nodded, your face was still flushed.

He leaned closer to you.

"You're redder than yesterday.. are you sure you're alright?"

Your body stiffened as he got closer towards you. You leaned back in embarrassment.

"Yes.. well, I think I still have a slight fever, but it's not as bad?"

You laughed nervously. He leaned closer to you and put the back of his hand on your forhead. It wasn't as bad as yesterday, but you were still burning. He felt your cheek to check, too.

"Hmm.. your cheeks are hotter than your forhead... you should get more rest."

He said, his face full of concern. You nodded and laid back down. Simon got up and grabbed his glasses, putting them on. He turned to you and pulled the covers over you. He smiled and turned around to walk out the room.

"S-Simon...could...could you stay.. please? I know you stayed with me last night... but I don't want you to leave me.."

You looked at him with big pleading eyes.

He looked at you, his face was red. He couldn't say no to you, even if he wanted to. He nodded and walked over to the bed and sat down next to you.

"Thank you.."

You smiled at him and let out a sigh.

"..I'm sorry you have to stay.."

You said as your expression changed, you looked upset. Simon turned to look at you. He moved some hair out of your face.

"I don't have to stay.. I'm here because I want to.. because.."

He paused for a bit, he stopped himself from saying what he wanted. He was way too embarrassed to tell you what he was thinking.

"Uh... because I want to make sure you're alright.."

You smiled, he knew exactly what to say to make you feel better, he always knew. You yawned a bit and drifted off to sleep. He smiled at you. He gently ran his fingers through your hair. He enjoyed this closeness, but he started to think.

Was this fair to Betty? Was he betraying her by being this close to you? Was he taking advantage of you while you're sick?

He didn't even know if you liked him back. He put his hands on his head and let out a loud sigh.

In your sleep, you threw your arm on him, kinda slapping his chest, pulling him out of his own head. He chuckled a bit. It was almost like you knew he was overthinking.

He looked around the room and saw the bowl on the bedside table. He got up, and you grumbled a bit.

"I know.. I'll be back, I promise.."

He said and picked up the bowl. He walked out of the room. He put the bowl in the kitchen sink, and a bookshelf caught his attention. He walked over and ran a finger across the spines of the books. One caught his attention, and he picked it up. He walked back to your room and sat down next to you and started to read. You rolled over to him, putting your arms around him.

Mabye, it was alright to just stay like this with you.. just for a little while longer..

He thought to himself before he started to read again.

I’ve always felt out of place in some TVDU spaces for thinking TVD is the best show, TO is just okay and Hayley deserved to die (Tyler, hybrids) and that Hope is boring in Legacies to the point where Josie and Lizzie should have been the leads

whenever ppl mention the other two shows, I’m like mmm anyway lets go back to talking about Bonnie lol

It’s a safe space here! 💜Same minority boat.

TVD has its issues misogyny, the racism and blunt acts of favoritism with characters. TO was more outwardly about their racism. Marcel, the black child was a stain on the family but the white baby and her new mother are good! NOLA being so white that even the background chars are, Elijah’s disposable WOC partners, the hallow…KEELIN/VINCENT etc..(the way they boost up the white witches.…)

I can’t take the TO claims that’s all: “it’s the most mature show!” “They aged everyone up” “It’s no love triangles! Just maturity”… Not to be rude but Joseph, Daniel and Claire were aging?!? It had been a while since they debuted in their own roles, so they had to find people who already looked like adults. If seeing Salvatore’s and the teens drama is annoying then in TO Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah and their many tantrums is just as bad? I’m confused?!🤣. TO relationships Klayley/ Haylijah/Camcel/Klamille, Kolvina etc etc very kept in the family.. …. Honestly, Hayley would have been portrayed better had it not been for Phoebe.

Hope is just as much of a plot device in TO as she is treated in legacies. Not sure why some folks that offense to that! Everybody claiming they want to do and be better. 5 seasons and multiple time jumps revolving around Hope’s existence but never allowing the audience to really grow with the character…if anything, the time jumps from s1/s2 shouldve been larger. Hayley having Hope 99% of the show but doing NOTHING to develop the Mikaelson’s relationships? Always and forever-ing but who is that applying too?? Hope not there…?

Legacies alone is proof the writers liked Bonnie but she was black. I get the disconnect with Hope because she’s not treated like the star character. The twins are pushed better.

Hope/Josie/Lizzie are all pieces of Bonnie in a sense but those writers got to mock Bonnie’s absence and important…

Anyway, loving Bonnie is fun and more people should the franchise is trash least we can be real about that

Had to take the chance to say my hot takes for no reason!

Thank you for the ask 💜
