#Silas x Amara

[mar1n3tt3]

[behind--these--walls]

if the doppelgängers were created as a means of finding balance to immortality- then they shouldn’t be able to be turned into vampires

face of an angel .. funny stefan said the same thing to katherine but im sure that's just a coincidence..

[touchedbydestiny]

"Rhodopis" is an ancient tale about a Greek slave girl who marries the king of Egypt. The story was first recorded by the Greek historian Strabo in the late first century BC or early first century AD and is considered the earliest known variant of the "Cinderella" story.

but what if this is really about amara and silas (not an egypt king but a greek king-like man)?

[touchedbydestiny]

       amara ignored the insult, which was the least evil.        "you do not seem to understand. i do not doubt his love or his intentions. i never have."        he didn't gain power, prestige, or wealth by choosing her. choosing someone of her position had meant risking everything he had: wealth, status, security, respect, and reputation. if he hadn't truly loved her then he would have never chosen someone like her.

       "nevertheless, the reasons for feelings or love are unfathomable. you stated that he chose me for a reason, that he left a powerful witch for me and i gave you an answer: happiness does not reside in possessions or in gold, happiness dwells in the soul. nonetheless, only a few choose to choose happiness over their wealth or status. and only a few will voluntarily face the consequences of choosing someone way below their social class and norm. i still stand by what i said about myself. i was an ordinary person, perhaps even less than an ordinary person."        she had not been a free person, after all.        "i'm nothing special but somehow i was what his soul needed. it is not explainable to me. as i said: love is unfathomable. in fact, silas didn't even know what i looked like when he began to court me."        her face was usually covered when she was with qetsiyah outside of her private quarters. he only knew her eyes, not even the sound of her voice.

       silas has made far greater sacrifices by choosing her than @malka-lisitsa can probably imagine which is presumably also the reason why katherine cannot understand why she sees silas as 'the bell of the ball' or 'the only prize in that relationship' - as katherine puts it. what silas was willing to give up for her because he chose her; because he wanted to be with her; because he fell in love with her had been one of the most significant and selfless things she had ever witnessed. he loved her unconditionally despite the fact that amara possessed nothing.

       amara's gaze fell into her lap where her hands rested. hands that had to work hard from a young age.        "i don't remember what my family looked like. i remember the steep fields that despite all the hard work never provided enough food. i was still a child when my parents were forced to sell me. i ended up in the temples and i worked there for a few years until qetisyah's father bought me to become one of her handmaidens. i doubt it happens often between master and servant but qetsiyah showed me friendship – at least what was possible regarding the circumstances. i owe a lot to her…"        and amara betrayed her because she selfishly put love above duty.

       "but all my life i felt hollow – until silas entered my life. he had an incredibly beautiful smile and a gaze so profound as if he could see the depths of a soul." amara's lips twisted slightly upwards while her gaze was still glued to her hands.        "being with him felt like i could see for the first time in my life. like he illuminated the darkness around me and let sunlight in. like i could see the stars and the moon for the first time in my life. he made me feel like a person; a person who is allowed to dream. i didn't knew love until i met him…"        amara's feelings had nothing to do with silas' wealth or status. he just made her feel alive. glad to experience another day. worthy of love. she never had asked for more than that.

       amara's eyes fell on the bandage around her wrist where her own teeth had cut through her skin. her bottom lip quivered as she started to tear up.

       "i wish i'd be stronger but i'm so tired… so unimaginably tired." her words were a whisper and her gaze was still set on her wrist. she was in physical and mental pain; she was exhausted and even aside the voices in her head she knew that something was wrong with her. broken.

       "i'm convinced we will find each other in another life again – somewhere where we're free…"

The doppelganger looks genuinely confused for a moment, as she stared her predecessor down. The air is thick with tension the entire silence, before it's finally broken.

"Are you really that stupid....?" The question doesn't even sound sarcastic it is a very very serious question.

"Fates literally created copies... of the two of you, mirroring your love.... for THOUSANDS of years? And you think he wanted you because you were a little peasant girl? And the only thing he didn't have? That's not love, that's possession. That's collection. If you were really just the final piece to him having everything I wouldn't be here."

Now nervous about being vulnerable, Katherine's idle hands move to pick up the nearest inanimate object so she can fiddle with it and keep her hands busy.

"Does that mean you fell in love with him because he had everything you never did? Because I don't believe that either... I agree with you that life is what you make of it, but that's never the case for love. You don't make anything of love. Love happens or it doesn't. It is the single most predictable unpredictable force in the world and it is a POWERFUL motivator." Just look at her.

"Somewhere-" The word is spoken with a louder tone than her previous ones after a brief pause, "in that fucked up little head of yours is a girl so special, so unique that you drove a man to start a magical war for you. Love, is never a mistake. It's equal parts painful and beautiful, but it's never a mistake."

Another pause.

"The way he went about his bullshit was a mistake, but you live and learn I guess." A shrug as she put the paper weight back down.

"Look you annoy the shit out of me, but theres a lot of credit you're not giving yourself."

It was a long tangent and probably a lot of projecting on her part that would go right over Amara's head but she finally got to her point.

"Something about you inspired that man to give up everything to be with you, and if that's not special I don't know what is."

Favorite non cannon Bonnie ships ranked:

this is just my opinion so don't come for me, but I based this ranking on character interactions, certain plot elements, and overall potential

bonnie x me - because I will treat her right, she's a baddie (not even atrocious styling could deny that face card!!), and we're already married in my head so..

jk.. but actually:

klonnie - this one grew on me when I heard joseph himself shipped them. it just makes sense that he'd be drawn to bonnie considering she's not just any other person to him. her bloodline has direct ties to his family and she's gone head-to-head against him multiple times. klaus is calculated asf from the moment we meet him so he'd probably go into their relationship trying to play with her head and keep her close as a potential tool for his own agenda (in a keep ur enemies close kinda-way), but he ends up falling for her along the way. bonnie's level-headed and mature nature would balance out klaus's more irrational chaos - maybe in a similar way klaus works with cami in the originals (my fav cannon klaus ship).

2. stefonnie - this one isn't talked about enough. remember in s1 when elena set up that dinner between her, stefan, and bonnie. elena was so set on bonnie liking stefan when they first got together. the early seasons really seemed invested in laying the foundation of stefan x bonnie with how protective he is of her. it seemed like their relationship should have only grown from there & there's no reason why it was just abandoned. plus, there's so many parallels between their plotlines: in s5 they both spend the summer indisposed (stefan drowning the whole time and bonnie being dead) and no one noticing. they couldve meaningfully bonded over that shared trauma. the otherside literally exists because bonnie's ancestor was cheated on by stefan's (original face, doppleganger?) whatever silas is - with her handmaid Amara.. so many stefonnie parrallels go ignored by the writers!

3. bonkai - one of my favorites. i wish we got more of a romantic or seggual payoff from these two bc the built up was certainly there for a darker romance kinda vibe. similar to the other villainxprotagonist couples in this show but no epic romantic payoff for bonnie i guess.. the actors' chemistry with each other in these scenes carries the ship for me & in the hands of writers that gaf about these characters it couldve been epic.

4. bamon - i know this one comes from the book & it's a fan favorite, but this actually feels more out of left field than stefonnie for me. that's not to say i don't like it. the second half of the show was for bamon and the writer's knew it. that's why they had to keep reinforcing that they're 'just friends' or else their chemistry would have turned tvd into the bamon show..

5. bonnie x katherine - i love the idea of a bi bonnie (clearly). lots of fans pair her with nora but i hate everything about the heretic storyline and the characters so i prefer katherine. they didn't interact much, but hear me out, katherine has always found herself paired with a bennett witch (emily in the 1800s, bonnie's cousin) and i think they'd be cute. i love katherine the most when she's not obsessing over the salvatore brothers or jealous of elena so i think pairing her with bonnie would offer a refreshing perspective of her character.

[cronicasvampiricas-rpg]

— Amara... —Se podía denotar cierta advertencia en el tono de voz de Silas. El solo hecho de pensar que la joven pudiera lanzarse a las fauces de un lobo con tal de ayudarle… le generaba una inquietud insoportable. Una que se encargó de ocultar tras el típico gesto confiado e indiferente— Ayúdame manteniéndote segura...—Llevó ambas manos hasta las mejillas femeninas, apoyando estas allí con suma delicadeza, como si aquel rostro fuese de porcelana pura— No soportaría perderte una vez más.

Silas and Amara (requested)

[aw3s0me-t0-bl0g]

Silas x Amara

[touchedbydestiny]

SHIPPING INFO // ANSWER THE FOLLOWING FOR YOUR MUSE(S) SO PEOPLE KNOW HOW SHIPPING WORKS ON YOUR BLOG.

WHAT IS YOUR OTP FOR YOUR CHARACTER(S)?

difficult to answer. definitely simara (silas+amara). not the only ships i ship, of course, but especially simara gave me life.

HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE?

since most are vampires or incredible old witches, it's again difficult to answer that. their physical age should match and they should be legal.

HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY ARE CONSIDERED NSFW?

when primary sexual organs or body liquids (apart from blood) are described/mentioned.

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING?

i'm not really selective but i need chemistry in order for the magic to happen. just because i ship x with y in the show doesn't have to mean i ship my x with your y. same goes if i ship my x with a's y but it can happen that i don't ship my x with b's y. it also doesn't have to stick to canon shipping, i shipped the most unusual pairings just because there was chemistry.^^

WHO ARE OTHER CHARACTERS YOU SHIP YOUR CHARACTER WITH?

amara/silas (as already mentioned), gia/elijah (they had potential), nadia/rebekah and nadia/matt, sarah/enzo (don't look at me) and sarah/matt, tatia/elijah. i never shipped with diana or natalia so i don't know what they are looking for.

DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU?

kinda. i need chemistry in order to ship so we need to be either already writing or start plotting.

ARE YOU SHIP OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE-OR-LESS?

i almost have no shipping threads so it really depends on the chemistry.

ARE YOU MULTISHIP?

yes

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM?

good question, can't answer that.^^

FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU

if we are already writing and you feel we have chemistry, then please ask. if you feel like we might have chemistry/match, also ask. perhaps we can plot something <3

I wish there was more of a storyline of the missing doppelgangers like Katherine’s, Stefan’s, and Tom Avery (I legit hated his death it was so stupid)

Dobsley + Expressive Angst

Today’s conversation about chemistry inspired me to make this gifset because when I see such expressive stares that communicate so much angst, if another ship doesn’t match this or eclipse it then it’s failed. It’s why I can’t take SC or DE or BE seriously. I mean just look at them.

*none of the gifs are mine*
