TVD fans get more upset at Caroline for hating Damon for abusing her than they do at Damon for abusing her

More Predatory Damon (this time from S1)

Remember how later he teaches Vampire Elena how to hunt sorority girls? Big yikes!

Aaaand this harrowing post, also from S1?

And let's add this post covering the aftermath and how the old, pre-brainwashed-for-a-self proclaimed-toxic-ship S1 Elena reacted:

A Reddit post is triggering this rant but it has to be said (even though I’m sure I’ve said it before on this page).

Caroline‘s "girl boss" moment telling Tyler She wasn't going to continue to feel guilty after sleeping with Klaus was not a "girl boss" moment. Caroline slept with the man that caused Tyler, an immense amount of pain and trauma, and also killed, not only his hybrid friends that he was trying to free from Klaus, but his mother.

In the scene Caroline says " your hybrid bite just killed someone and no one even batted an eye. I sleep with the wrong guy once weeks ago and I don't hear the end of it how is that fair".

First of you're comparing two different things. The only valid comparison that Caroline could’ve made to her situation was Elena getting with Damon after all the BS he has done to everyone and the fact that that’s Stefan brother. But she knew not to do that bc everybody had something to say about Elena getting Damon (especially her). Second, the person he killed (Nadia) he did it to SAVE YOUR LIFE so, why are you bringing that up like he did it for nothing or for fun?????? It's not adding up.

Then she rants about how being a good vampire doesn’t come easy and she has the same impulses as Tyler so she’s allowed to make mistakes and says " yes I slept with Klaus, but that was after you walked away from me that was my choice and I’m living with it and I don’t need to be hearing about it every five seconds, so just get over it or get out of my life, but I’m done feeling guilty".

Why is she talking like she’s the victim? Why is she talking as if that guilt she’s feeling isn’t deserved bc she hurt someone who lost his freedom (at one point), friends and mother all at the hands of the man that you slept with? why are you continually pushing and pushing (and unnecessarily, inserting yourself in his life every chance you got) him to forgive you instead of giving him that time to get over what you did like he continued to ask you to do? Tyler shouldn’t of had to forgive you on your terms, Caroline when YOU WERE THE ONE WHO MADE THE MISTAKE.

it’s interesting how Caroline continuously told Elena to stick with Stefan even after he went on his little revenge hunt for Klaus but she can’t give Tyler that same energy. I understand one situation is when they thought they could kill Klaus and the other was when they knew that killing Klaus wasn't possible but how come you can’t let Tyler work through his anger from the pain Klaus caused him like you were able to do with Stefan?

That's what's not fair.

(Sidenote: Didnt Caroline cheat on Tyler with Jesse?)

[hyperactivewhore]

Caroline sleeping with Klaus was a betrayal, just as much as of a betrayal as Elena getting with Damon after everything Damon did to her friends. Of course, Tyler, who was terrorized by Klaus, would be angry that Caroline slept with him. People love to bash Tyler for his reasonable reaction to finding out the woman he loves just slept with the man who killed his mom. People defend Caroline for sleeping with Klaus (which fine - she can sleep with anyone she wants), but at the same time, Tyler had every reason to react badly to the news.

I hate that people bash Tyler for slut-shaming Caroline but go on to applaud Caroline for doing the same thing to every other women on the show. And I find it really telling that many of Caroline/Klaus shippers are the same people who will call Hayley a wereslut, will refer to Cami as a dumb bimbo, and will label Aurora as a crazy whore. So it’s awful for Tyler to slut-shame Caroline, but she’s so iconic, powerful, and a girl boss for doing the same thing to every other girl on the show.

And this isn’t me defending Tyler or praising him. I don’t like Tyler, especially after what he did to Vicki. But even I got to admit, he reacted to Caroline and Klaus like how many people would.

It's crazy because Tyler didn't even slut-shame Caroline, he was just rightfully angry and repeatedly told her to respect his boundaries and get out of his house, but Caroline's hurt ego was always stronger than what people wanted her to do.

Caroline slept with the same man who murdered Jenna, Elena, Tyler and Carol, and who nearly assaulted her just because she felt attracted to him and wanted him to fuck her. Then, once Tyler found out and didn't react the way she wanted him to, she literally told him to get over it or to get out of her life. She told him to get over the fact she slept with his mother's killer, or he would have to leave her life.

Caroline is the biggest slut-shamer in the show and I wouldn't have minded to see Tyler slut-shame her for once, because this girl did it to literally everyone she was jealous of.

Her fans (klaroline fans, to be honest) are so weird about it too. If Rebekah had killed Liz and Tyler had slept with her, the fandom would absolutely drag him, even more than they already do.

Well, it guess it's karma her husband, ex boyfriend and the guy she liked because he sent her money sometimes are all dead. But knowing Caroline, she'll just find someone else eventually, she was constantly dating and she is immortal, after all.

[rockclimbinglover12107]

Caroline Forbes was quite irrelevant

She had no important connections, apart from nonsensical flirtation and hookups with Klaus and she was shoehorned into many plots.

She was also shown to be better than older vampires on numerous occasions and her abilities surpassed Elena’s by far, even though they were only one vampire year apart.

Her stans also constantly complain about the amount of attention that Elena was given, which is very hypocritical as Caroline got to be a main character almost all of the time, participating in every mystery and storyline, no matter how irrelevant her character was to the plot. Meanwhile, Post s3 Elena was reduced to Damon’s sidekick and love interest, who never did anything, and died every season. Also, Katherine was killed off in season 5, meaning that the doppelgänger plot that started the show and made Elena the main protagonist was gone.

I don’t hate Caroline but it was clear that she was the writer’s favourite and kept relevant for the sake of fan service. To me, she was just a boring character who got much more screen time than more interesting characters such as Lexi, Katherine and Rebekah and had far too many bad love interests.

[dumbblondesposts]

Finally someone with more than one braincell in this braindead fandom , like I've said it before but not a single character on that godforsaken show had a moral compass, Elena didn't do anything the other characters haven't done but for some bizarre reason you'll see mfs hold a 17 year old human girl accountable before they acknowledge what the GROWN ASS vampires did, and it's so funny how these takes come mainly from Caroline/klaroline fans like these bitches of all people should not be talking

it’s so gross to me how c*roline stans have been running with this narrative that Elena is a horrible friend to Caroline and attacking her for getting involved with Damon after he r*ped Caroline while giving Stefan a free pass when Damon is literally Elena’s abuser too, and Elena was horrified and outraged by what Damon did to Caroline and did everything she could to protect Caroline when Elena was literally a teenage girl unfamiliar with the supernatural world being preyed on by two 100+ vampires and oh yeah DAMON WAS ELENA’S ABUSER TOO like literally what was elena supposed to do Damon was constantly inserting himself into her life and every time she’d reject him he’d do something like kill her brother like she had literally no power against him. Stefan was the one who could have done something about Damon and constantly chose not to but this gets completely ignored by fandom. also funny how the “elena is the worst” crowd had nothing to say about Caroline sleeping with the guy who killed Tyler’s mom (except for the people attacking TYLER for being upset lmao)

Listen, I'm 80% right there with you. You've hooked me. You're gonna get a whole essay out of me.

There are five (major) issues to tackle here. Let's start with the first one, which should be the most simple to understand.

Damon's Ongoing Assault Issue.

We all saw what Damon did. We all agree that him compelling Caroline removed her ability to consent to it. We are all aware of that. Here's the thing. In character, no one ever addresses more than the feeding and manipulation. Not even Caroline herself. We, as the audience, know the issue. But the issue presented in character is never as clear cut as "Damon raped Caroline, and she rightfully hates him for it." They never go there, and we know why. This also unfortunately means that Caroline never once says that's the reason she hates Damon so much. We're given the "he manipulated me, he fed off of me without my consent" which is still bad, but it's nothing he didn't do to anyone else. He killed Alaric multiple times. He killed Jeremy. He threatened and attacked Bonnie. He's killed Vicki and Mason and everyone else, and this is after what he did to Caroline. If he gets away with all of that, why wouldn't they forgive or tolerate him for something as 'natural' as feeding? By not acknowledging that his compulsion removed Caroline's consent, they never have to acknowledge that what he did was rape. And that means they never have to say Damon did anything worse to Caroline than he did to anyone else. Specifically, we also never see anyone call out the fact Damon compels Andie to be okay with what he is and to let him feed off of her while in a relationship with her as well. Alaric in particular never calls this out despite the fact he's an adult who should know better than the teenagers how wrong it is, because by that point, they've all reached a place where they're damn near complacent in what Damon does. But anyway, without them outright saying what he did and calling it what he is, Caroline seems very... obnoxious with her dislike for him, while everyone else has gotten over it. It kind of leads us into the next one.

The Stefan Issue.

You're completely correct. Stefan should have been the one getting Damon away. Both Elena and Stefan knew what Damon was doing to Caroline, and Elena demanded he deal with it. And he did. To do that, he used Caroline as a way to subdue Damon. While people often talk about how Stefan took Caroline under his wing, it wasn't before he repeatedly used her. Even after that, he uses her when it comes to Klaus and to Tyler. But focusing on the Damon subject, Caroline never once acknowledges that Stefan knew (which she knows) what Damon was doing to some extent or holds him responsible for it, or snarks at him about Damon as much as she does Elena. She all but outright absolves him of any wrongdoing as soon as he becomes her mentor. You see it in the way she personally roots for Stefan whenever it comes to the damned triangle, her own desire to prop him up overriding any and everything. Even after Stefan hurt Elena herself, she was still very aggressively team Stefan. This is partially because she's basically Julie Plec's self insert, and partially because she sees Stefan as the good brother, despite the fact he above all is the one who primarily excused and defended him during that time. People will not admit that Stefan is complacent in Damon's actions because they're obsessed with a 'good brother, bad brother' dynamic. On the flip side, people who do acknowledge Stefan's part of it claim Damon is better because he "owns up to what he is". The truth of the matter is that they're both assholes.

The Elena Of It All.

Like you said, Elena was rightfully disgusted and terrified of what Damon did to Caroline, and fucking immediately told Stefan to deal with that shit. For a bit after that, she (and Bonnie) were doing their best to keep Damon away from Caroline. Here's where the issue lies. Like I said before, we, the audience, know everything, right? Did we ever see a scene where Caroline tells her exactly what happened with Damon? This is part of the issue I mentioned with 'Caroline never outright says it'. All Elena has to go on is bruises and bitemarks. And she is mad about that, mad about the fact Damon fed on her without her consent, but that's all she thinks happened. She does not know Damon is her rapist. And yes, that is enough reason for Elena to hate him and be mad at him, but look at all the things I mentioned above. What did he do to Caroline that he hasn't done to others who, frankly, mean more to Elena? As bad as it is to say it, as far as Elena knows, there's nothing special about what Damon did to Caroline.

Part two of the Elena issue is that while you're right, while Damon was her abuser too, it gets wonky because of the sire bond and because of her eventual feelings for him. At some point in season one, Caroline is asking for the necklace back, and Elena goes "why? so you can give it back to Damon?" which is half a joke, half not. So already, Elena is joking about the situation. Which, Caroline doesn't remember everything. Elena knows that. Look, you can essentially take it one of two ways. One, Elena's trying to make shit seem normal because they haven't told Caroline about the supernatural, while feeling out why she wants it back. Two, she's being cruel. It honestly depends on how you view her character this early on. I'm not gonna debate about that, whatever.

Anyway, later on, in season whatever the hell, Damon jokes "have fun with blondie, I know I did" and Elena laughs. That? Was bad. Even without knowing the full extent of what he did, it was a fucked up thing to laugh at. I love Elena, and it was fucked up. You'll never see me denying that shit. Damon even fucking teaches her to hunt in the same way he picked Caroline out and it isn't called out, in canon.

Primarily, people's issue with Elena, is that it seems like she co-signs all of Damon's bullshit from even before they were together because she gets with him. For them, it's like Elena is immediately acknowledging and approving of everything Damon did because they're in a relationship. Some people acknowledge Stefan and Alaric do this as well. Some don't. Oh well.

I don't ship delena, or stelena. I think Elena and Damon's dynamic was terrible. I think her character changed when she got with him, for the worse. I openly admit all that, and you can take it as I'm biased if you want to. I personally don't think two people getting together means they cosign each other's bullshit, but whatever.

But the main issue lies in season one. They believe Elena should have done something to stop Damon from what he did to Caroline. What, exactly? I don't know. Damon was trying to compel Elena to fucking kiss him in season one and she smacked him immediately. She wanted him dead for what he did to Caroline. She said as much. I couldn't tell you what else people wanted her to do. By the time she had some kind of power against him, he had done bigger and worse things and yet he was one of their only allies with knowledge of the supernatural so they needed him. So, bluntly, Caroline's thing got pushed to the way side. One thing I see people mention is that Elena stopped Bonnie from personally killing Damon when they found out Caroline got turned and you can make your own opinions about that but Damon did not do that. Katherine did. He did deserve to die, but Elena didn't want Bonnie to be the one to do it. Opinions and reasons vary, but she also didn't let Damon kill Caroline (by directly putting herself in harm's way to protect her), so... whatever you want to think about that, think it, do it, bop it, I don't care.

My opinion on Elena being a horrible friend to Caroline is that she's not. At the end of the day, Elena is probably one of the people who treated Caroline best, if you step back and look at the whole thing from an objective point of view. People just do not do that.

I do think there's a certain point where "Elena couldn't do anything" stops being entirely true, but it's long after what happened to Caroline. And it's nothing that Caroline herself couldn't do after she became a vampire (much sooner than Elena did).

The Caroline-Klaus Issue.

Preaching to the choir, dude. People will go on all day saying how dating your friend's abuser is wrong (fair) and then say Caroline is better because she Just fucked Klaus (despite the fact they WANTED them to be in a long term relationship anyway). I, personally, don't see how the fuck that's better. I also don't see a point in "morality" arguments for this fandom, but let's just write it out. Fucking the guy who murdered your boyfriend's mom and his friends is better than dating a guy who manipulated your friend into doing his bidding and feeding on her (which as is as much as Elena knows)? Debatable.

People will often excuse this as "Tyler chose revenge over her" as if Klaus did not murder his mother and the fellow hybrids. If the roles were reversed and Liz had been murdered, there'd be a different talk. But hey.

Finally,

The Caroline Issue.

Caroline not only serves as Julie's self insert, but she's the self insert for a lot of this damn fandom. You see it in fics, where they either change her personality so she's more like Elena or Bonnie, and Elena/Bonnie is the friend who can't keep their mouth shut or is always commenting on their friends' lives or spilling secrets.

The Tyler thing? Caroline's a girlboss for telling Tyler to get over it! after she slept with his mother's murderer. But Elena's a terrible friend and "trying to make it all about her" when she tries to sympathize with Caroline over Liz's death and turning her humanity off. Caroline's a queen when she slutshames Katherine and Rebekah and literally any female character she doesn't like who she speaks about for more than two seconds, but when Elena throws it back in her face that Caroline INTENDED to sleep with Damon before finding out he was a vampire (which she did. It's why he got invited into her house), she's just so awful. This, in addition to the fact that Elena was under a sirebond, and Caroline is just regularly fucking like that.

You see my point. Anyway, make no mistake, what Damon did is an issue, but it's only as big of an issue in fandom because Caroline is the golden girl to them. They completely ignore the fact Elena has no full knowledge about what went down. They ignore that Stefan or Alaric should have been taking charge against Damon. They ignore that Caroline never so much as utters a peep about exactly why she hates Damon besides him being a "manwhore". Anything they can use to villainize anyone, but especially Elena, where Caroline is concerned? They will. Facts be damned.

Biography: (tw: injury, tw: trauma)

Growing up in Linwood, New Jersey, Sydney had a mixed childhood. While her parents, and older brother, always showed they cared and she wanted for nothing, her parents would often fight in earshot of her childhood bedroom.

From 10 years old on, Syd was usually found at the beach. Being out on the water was the only way for her to find her own sense of calm. Where the reality of what was going on at home would be placed on pause and all that mattered was catching the perfect wave.

Since she'd put so much work into her sport, by the time she was a teenager, she was entering and winning nationwide competitions. Then, at the age of eighteen, she had placed number 20 on the international pro surfers list.

Just as she was on top of the world and competing internationally, Sydney suffered a career changing accident. She ended up completely messing up her shoulder; needing surgery to fix the torn rotator cuff.

After the accident, she immediately went into six months of physical therapy, but the fear of something else happening to her shoulder kept her from grabbing her board once cleared.

Once back to health, she moved to NY in hopes of finding something new for herself, but she misses surfing more than anything.

She doesn't tell anyone about her past though because talking about it just makes her sad and brings up the trauma of it all.

She's been bartending at different places for the past couple years, but thinks she's finally found a solid place to stay.

I would love all of the connections for her! So here's a handy dandy connections page and feel free to let me know if your character would be a good fit somewhere!

[    ❀    ]    born  in  brooklyn  ,  new  york  ,  francesca  grew  up  in  a  household  that  has  the  feeling  of  claustrophobia.  not  only  was  she  surrounded  by  her  mother  and  her  parents  ,  but  there  were  consistently  butlers  ,  maids  ,  au  pairs  and  even  their  own  personal  chefs  and  nurses  coming  through  the  apartment.  at  a  young  age  ,  she  was  shown  that  she  came  from  money  and  that  money  would  get  her  anything  she  wanted.  the  more  and  more  her  mother  would  shove  money  in  her  face  ,  only  forced  the  ideology  that  as  long  as  she  had  money  handed  to  her  ,  she  was  loved.  

[    ❀    ]    questions  regarding  her  father  were  always  waved  off  ,  people  stating  that  they  had  more  important  things  to  do  than  to  focus  on  the  disgusting  man  that  gave  francesca  her  last  name.  it  caused  her  to  stay  up  late  night  ,  hiding  under  her  covers  and  writing  in  her  journal  of  made  -  up  scenarios  where  her  father  was  a  brilliant  actor  ;  a  professional  chef  that  was  just  much  too  busy  to  stay  home  full  time  ;  a  man  that  was  working  hard  so  that  he  could  come  home  to  make  sure  that  she  was  taken  good  care  of  ,  along  with  her  mother.

[    ❀    ]    she's  seven  when  she's  told  that  she  must  pack  her  bags  quickly  ,  that  there  would  be  no  time  for  questions.  knowing  better  than  to  question  her  mothers  intentions  ,  francesca  packed  up  as  much  as  she  could  fit  in  her  luggage  before  she's  standing  in  front  of  a  house  ,  her  mother  quickly  pressing  a  kiss  to  her  forehead  and  heading  to  the  car  behind  them.  it  was  in  that  moment  that  francesca  realized  all  her  dreams  of  her  father  ,  of  her  family  ,  were  simply  that.  dreams.  she  was  in  a  foreign  home  ,  with  people  she  didn't  know  and  new  staff  ;  staff  that  didn't  understand  the  creative  nature  of  francesca's  mind.

[    ❀    ]    the  only  bonus  that  came  from  the  neglectful  upbringing  was  her  older  brother  ,  nate.  despite  francesca  taking  her  time  warming  up  to  her  brother  ,  there  was  a  warmth  that  would  radiate  off  the  other  that  caused  franny  to  consistently  find  herself  knocking  on  his  door  late  at  night  ,  begging  to  sleep  on  his  floor  after  their  father  downed  another  bottle  of  alcohol  and  was  going  on  a  drunken  rant  below  them.  despite  never  fearing  for  her  life  ,  there  was  a  pit  in  the  middle  of  her  stomach  ,  terrified  that  their  lives  were  going  to  be  just  this  ,  consistently  hiding  in  their  rooms  to  avoid  the  drunk  nature  of  their  father.

[    ❀    ]    despite  her  home  life  ,  there  wasn't  a  moment  in  franny's  life  where  she  wasn't  a  ball  of  sunshine  when  she  was  out  in  the  public.  full  of  energy  ,  always  wanting  to  hear  peoples  thoughts  and  being  the  mediator  in  arguments  between  peers.  a  curious  being  ,  she  was  always  getting  into  things  she  probably  should  not  have  ,  gathering  up  little  ideas  in  the  back  of  her  head  for  her  stories  that  she  would  write  when  she  was  at  home.

[    ❀    ]    voted  the  best  smile  ,  most  likely  to  kill  someone  with  kindness  ,  and  using  her  quote  in  her  senior  year  book  to  tell  others  that  they  could  do  anything  they  wanted  ,  franny  graduated  with  a  bright  smile  on  her  face  with  her  brother  in  the  audience.  since  the  pair  of  them  leaving  their  father  ,  she  was  able  to  encase  herself  in  the  love  that  she  deserved  ,  the  love  that  her  brother  provided  for  her.  it  didn't  take  long  for  her  influencer  status  to  skyrocket  ,  her  instagram  following  jumping  each  night  by  the  thousands  and  agencies  reaching  out  for  their  products  to  be  involved  in  her  youtube  videos.

HISTORY;

TW drinking, husband death, domestic violence mention Tallulah Jean Owens wasn’t supposed to make it out of Dillon, TX let alone become the belle of the South. From the moment she was born, the odds were stacked against her, a beautiful wild flower born into a family of chaos. She was the only daughter of four unruly brothers. Her daddy was the local drunk, unable to cope with his time spent in Vietnam while her Momma was a failed pageant queen turned hairdresser making minimum wage. The Owens were trouble, trailer trash, and broke as hell with too many mouths to feed. But Tallulah was their meal ticket. Like her brothers, she had a wild soul but her natural beauty seemed to surpass it all. She was taught to wave and smile, wow the crowd with just the bat of her lashes. By the time Tallulah was six, she was entered into pageants all over the state. At first as a last resort, and to appease her mother’s failed dreams, and then because the girl actually had a knack for the stage and her winnings kept food on the table. Even if she was the dime store contestant draped in her mother’s repurposed hand-me downs while her competitors were dolled up by the pros and donned the latest fashion trends, there was something about the little girl in bedazzled riding boots hidden beneath layers of tulle that judges couldn’t get enough of, a quality that couldn’t be bought and one that earned Tallulah sponsorships that took her all the way to the big show. Tallulah went on to become Miss Teen Texas, Miss Teen America, Miss Texas three years in a row, and at long last the most coveted prize in the Beauty Pageant World. She was twenty- five when she secured her Miss America 2009 crown and caught the eye of James Calloway, cowboy casanova and heir to the Texas oil fortune. It didn’t matter that she may have been sort of into a guy she grew up with or that James would eventually urge to quit the pageant circuit. The family had old money, the kind that demanded respect and bought them class and prestige not to mention summer homes on the coast. Tallulah was no fool to pass that up. For a while, it was magic and they were in love. All roses and champagne, whirlwind rendezvous, and summers on the coast (the Cape May house was always Tallulah’s favorite). Much like the judges, the Calloways loved her, too. Church bells rang not long after she finished her Miss America tour, and they were married in the most lavish country wedding Texas had ever seen. Tallulah not only had a platform now, but access to more wealth she could wrap her head around. At James’ request, Tallulah retired from the pageant circuit to become his trophy wife and raise their daughter. She focused on her philanthropy specifically helping veterans return to civilian life after war, ran the junior league, mentored pageant girls, and was a prominent figure at the country club. From the outside, it all seemed perfect, but there were cracks in this Barbie and Ken, ones that Tallulah occasionally had to hide behind large designer sunglasses. Whiskey and jealousy were to blame, and eventually it got the better of her husband. There’s a certain mystery surrounding the specifics of his death. A part of Tallulah blames herself, that she didn’t stop him when he took the keys to the Mercedes three sheets to the wind. But in the end, she got everything. Widowed three years, Tallulah now resides in the Cape May house she inherited with her twelve year old daughter. She hopes to maintain a quiet life, use the Calloway money to grow the many charities she is involved in, and of course, for world peace. (tldr; church bells by Carrie Underwood gives you a pretty good gist. she’s straight out of a country song)

AESTHETICS;

Million dollar pageant smiles and practiced princess waves, bedazzled riding boots beneath layers of tulle skirts, glittering tiaras under a confetti explosion, cowgirl boots filled with flower bouquets, blue jean queen, country songs,1 oz whiskey 3 parts champagne, barefoot on the beach, oversized sunglasses, white cable knit sweaters, sipping sweet tea out of mason jars on a wrap around porch, more denim, and a fading butterfly tramp stamp

PERSONALITY;

RESILIENT (+): No matter what was thrown her way, broken family, alcoholic husband, daddy issues, Tallulah learned, for better or for worse, how to pick herself up from her riding boots and put on that million dollar smile of hers and wow the crowd. GENEROUS(+): Miss America gave Tallulah a platform and she was recently given access to her late husband’s fortune, so she certainly intends to use it all for good. She is very focused on her philanthropy, specifically helping veterans return to civilian life after war, running the junior league, mentoring prospective pageant girls, and being a prominent figure at the country club and her daughter’s school. MATERIALISTIC(-): Being thrust into the world of pageants at a young age, Tallulah can be superficial at time.s She loves keeping up with the latest fashions and treating herself to a spa day here and there, not to mention the newest pair of Jimmy Choos. REBELLIOUS SIDE (-): Tallulah has a wild soul, one that was tamed at an early age for the pageant circuit. But growing up in Texas Tallulah always had her horses and riding made her feel free. She’s a down home girl at heart who loves a good dive bar, and can shoot whiskey like the best of ‘em. And don’t even get her started at billiards.

HEADCANNONS;

The talent portion was always her favorite part of pageants because she got to let her wild soul show a bit more. Her talent was horseback riding. She now  keeps her horses at her Texas property. They are always the first she goes to see when she visits home. Marigold is her prized horse.

She did actually love James, and it kills her to think that she could love someone with demons like his. She can still picture the first day she met him, posted up against the record machine in some dive bar they wouldn’t have been in. Naturally, she blew him off at first, but he was persistent and she liked that about him.

Still toying with this one BUT I like to think Tallulah wasn’t directly involved in James’ death but it was orchestrated by someone close to her (a brother, her mother, father?? close friend etc.) because they knew she’d never leave him and she deserved better. something along those lines. Potential connection perhaps?

Though Tallulah grew to become eloquent and poised, her southern drawl always comes out when she is angry, upset, or is passionate about something.

She has a 12 year old daughter named Miranda. Tallulah is that mom who’s super involved in the school, junior league, etc. and would do anything for her baby. She calls Miranda her little lucky charm.  

WANTED CONNECTIONS;

coming soon.

Tyler vs Klaus

It's Been a Hot minute since I've been on tumblr so imma choose violence with this post bc the hypocrisy will always be crazy to me.

So it's OK for Klaus to harm Caroline knowing his hybrid bite would kill a vampire but when Tyler simply shows his werewolf face he's worse than Klaus. I really wanna break down the comparison of them both regarding their situations with Caroline bc from Tyler's pov Caroline as betrayed him on multiple occasions while Klaus has harmed Caroline unprovoked.

1st Tyler situation: Masons Death

Caroline spent a good chunk of season 2 building a new bond with Tyler; gaining his trust when he became a Werewolf. So much so that she even tells Tyler that a Werewolf bite could kill a vampire after she finds that out from Damon. Tyler then finds out from Jules that Caroline was lying to him about knowing who killed Mason (HIS UNCLE) and when confronting Caroline about how she's broken his trust he pushes her against a car and you can see his werewolf side start to takeover but it doesn't. Why? Bc he knows that biting her would kill her. Tyler was able to control himself while being a new werewolf so that he didn't kill Caroilne after she betrayed him but Tyler's the bad guy bc he pushed her against a car. REALLY???? And even after Jules and her friend had Caroline in that cage even if he did hesitate for a second he still took her out and even left Mystic Falls with jules bc he didn't want to harm anyone. He only Came back bc he found out his mother was in the hospital; Why? bc of Klaus.

2nd Tyler situation: Caroline sleeping with Klaus

Once again a betrayal on Caroline's part to Tyler. Tyler spent most of their relationship in competition with Klaus bc of Klaus. Klaus used Tyler's sirebond against him so Tyler left Mystic Falls turning over 100 times and almost dying so he can be free and enjoy his relationship with Caroline. Klaus Killed Tyler's mother and Caroline knew how much pain that put Tyler in bc she was there comforting him at his mother's memorial while he cried in her arms. Then after they broke up Caroline had sex with Klaus and Caroline's once again in conflict with Tyler. Tyler finds out She slept with Klaus and instead of respecting Tyler's wishes to leave him alone Caroline continued to push him to his point of rage showing werewolf side once again. Not attacking her tho. Some would say it was bc Stefan stopped him but I don't believe Tyler would of harmed her to begin with bc if he was able to control his werewolf side when he just started his journey after Caroline betrayed him before why wouldn't he be able to again. But most stans don't see that and instead resort to saying that Tyler's abusive and he had no reason to he mad when they know that if the roles were reversed and Tyler did something like that to Caroline they would freak in rage. What's even worse is that after some time died down and Tyler was still in his feelings Caroline tells him to get over her sleeping with Klaus and Said that she wasn't going to continue to feel bad for what she did.

That was so girl boss you are Caroline. 😐

Now let's get to Klaus,

1st Kluas situation: Bite number 1

Klaus used Tyler's sirebond against him and forced him to bite Caroline on her birthday so he could then save Caroline to seem like some hero. Mind you Caroline has done nothing to Klaus to deserve being put through that pain.

2nd Klaus situation: bite number 2

After Kol is killed and Klaus is locked in the Gilbert house he bites Caroline and stabs her with a lamp after she told him she didn't want to be with him (something he already knew bc she's told him on multiple occasions she didn't want him).

These are 2 situations of Caroline doing little to nothing to Klaus but Klaus harms Caroline knowing he would kill her but he's not held to the same standard as Tyler. He not abusive but Tyler is?

Make it make sense

Tyler has never bitten Caroline. In fact in situations of rage stemming from Caroline betrayals to Tyler he has managed to control himself both times bc he knows that he could kill Caroilne; But he's the bad guy for showing even an ounce of deserved rage to Caroline after she backstabs him. How is Tyler showing Caroline his werewolf face after she does him dirt worse than Klaus purposely biting Caroline while knowing he could kill her?

Either we not watching the same show or Stan's are just letting their biased views cloud their judgment.

And I thinks it's the 2nd option 👀

[always-left]

"so you're like kind of a pro?" tilting her head with a smile. Peyton wasn't too good at the socialising thing, but the idea of getting through these practices without talking to anybody was more daunting than not, if she could at least make one friend, the possibility of making more would marginly open up.

"I'm new to the team here, but I was on the team at my old school. My dad and I recently moved here. I thought I'd try and pick it up again when tryouts came around" Peyton had met the head cheerleader in question, Caroline Forbes a firey blonde with a strive for perfection. One of the reasons her gut was absolutly flipping waiting upon her arrival.

"I don't see anybody else here from the day when tryouts took place, is she really that bad? or did everybody just no show on her"

Elena was a little out of it today, she hadn't even noticed the new girl at first or she would have made some kind of move to socialize. She liked making new people feel welcome, part of the manners her mother raised her with while she was training Elena to be a little socialite.

"Oh uh... Yea, freshmen through junior year." She hadn't decided if she would be back next year, honestly she hadn't decided if she was staying this year. Everything was so different now. It was like after the crash she'd been stuck and the world kept moving. Now no matter how hard she tried it felt like Elena couldn't keep up. She couldn't catch up....

"You're the new girl... have you been a cheerleader before or? Well no that's a stupid question... Caroline wouldn't accept you on the squad if you were new...shes..... picky.... " To put it nicely...

[fearlessfairy]

i love love love people who write rants about how much they care about elena and stefan was the bad one….and they ship delena. ..ugh, both of them did things that were too much to handle for a minor, but damon, he was a really special case. if anything, damon and elena should have served as an example for how you deal and get over of a toxic relationship…but it's fantasy.

same goes for cheerfull, but dissapointed fans who "care" about precious caroline forbes and "she deserve so much better stefan, tyler, matt, enzo, alaric….and they ship fakin klaroturd.

do not let me start abt bonkai (i can see the chemistry, but i can't see how kai actually deserved bonnie..).

hey, if you like dullena or klarobarf, go ahead….just do not pretend you care about elena or caroline, you do not, you care for a ship and especially the second half of the ship. i would not write this if i haven't witnessed simple pictures about other ship than klaroouch or dumblena about how "but they deserved so much betahhhh…i ship her with klaus or damon". i ship basically nothing in this show, but you literally picked their worst relationship and said that's the best they can do.

[bakerolivias-archived]

i legitimately don’t understand lexi haters especially ppl who are pro salvatore like. lexi as a character only exists to prop the salvatore bros up and advance their journeys, and y’all hate her for “always butting in” in what isn’t her business when... she does nothing but help your favorite character? and i mean literally nothing else because she has no agency or background or life outside guiding the salvabros

also not y’all hating on caroline for everything she said in s4 because the writers literally butchered her character on purpose to deny her credibility and justifiable rage against her abuser and r*pist. they made her st*lena’s mouthpiece to rob her of having a voice against d*lena’s budding “relationship” because god forbid anyone criticize the main character and her love interest’s romance founded on abuse, misogyny, and a dynamic where a 200 year old man has complete control over a newbie vamp/eighteen year old girl right?? especially when that man has a history of victimizing her?
