Stefonnieeeeee❤️

[icepandawarrior]

I still find it crazy how I ship damn near everyone with Bonnie except the two people she was canonically with...

fave tvdu headcanons? (any ship/character/whatever else)

I’m chaotic so these are headcanons mixed in with some unpopular opinions 💜

Elena would’ve been a better huntress than Jeremy. Alaric was training her first. As a doppelgänger it could’ve given her some agency. I’d link the post where I said this originally but lost it bc tumblr is a broken land

Elena prefers journalism and English to medicine.

Hope should’ve attended a normal school like a normal teenager. I can see her traveling outside the country for college. That girl got money! (Hope and Maya leaving Mystic Falls as lovers)… don’t get me started. Art and dance major gfs living in Europe..

Freya and Vincent should’ve ended up together. Now yes Vincent can’t stand the Mikaelson’s (rightfully so lol) but the writing put more time into their friendship (similar in a Bamon stance to me) than they ever did with Freya and Keelin. I enjoy both ships and I’m bisexual before somebody tries it lol.

Stefonnie would’ve been better than Steroline in the later seasons and in addition to Carenzo being better than Bonenzo

If Delena was to get married, I’d see them divorced. Elena would call it first. I think being human again after so long and being in a coffin would need addressing. She’d need her space.

Rebekah shouldve ended up with a woman. Sofya was good to Marcel in ways Rebekah wasn’t. Marbekah’s happy ending really only works for Rebekah’s needs.

Hayley didn’t love Jackson enough to be murdering people about him I’m sorry but lmao. He was a placeholder to her. Nothing more or less lol.

In the future I think Baroline would be that friend group who does therapy together to fix their issues.

I can see Bonnie teaching at the boarding school, but never staying too long.

In a world where Klaus has more time with Hope. I think he’d prioritize bonding with her and Marcel. More group activities with the family!

More people tell Bonnie thank you…

These are so random I am so sorry if you wanted a more cohesive list.

I know I am not the only one who dislikes Bonnie's canon relationships, and I wanted to make a space for us that see her as more than what she was given.

Our girl is just as desirable and deserving of a romance as the rest. It's unfair how she's the only one boxed in due to moral policing.

"But Bonnie can't be with them because they're evil/morally dubious, she's too good and moral-" and the other characters, especially Elena and Caroline can? They aren't "too good" and "moral"? Why is Bonnie the only one held to these standards even when we see Elena call out characters like Damon and Elijah for their actions, so we can obviously tell that she has a different moral standing than they do? Even if Bonnie is those things, that still doesn't necessarily mean that she can't be with these said characters, whether for a short period or forever. Like, Enzo definitely does questionable things that would go against this idea, but these same fans don't question their relationship (some not all, same with Nora). It's only when we talk about characters like the Salvatores or the Mikaelsons or Kai (Enzo as well, back to my previous point), characters who have had flirtations or relationships with Elena and Caroline does this suddenly becomes an issue. And then the excuse of "Bonnie is too strong" to fall for them, as if that's supposed to be a compliment. Black women and girls, whether fictional or not, should not have to be seen as being "too strong" to be deemed worthy of love. That's such a gross thing to say, especially when our yte counterparts aren't held to the same standard, are allowed to be strong, and still fall in love. If you genuinely think that's a compliment, I urge you to do some work and figure out why that is.

[occulthours]

the later seasons of tvd would’ve been so much better had bonnie and caroline switched love interests and storylines.

it would’ve made more sense for stefonnie to get together, bonnie have kids (whether they be the gemini twins or not), stefan take the cure from elena, and open as supernatural school.

it also would’ve made more sense for caroline to fall for enzo (a vampire that actually enjoyed vampirism and fit her moral standards) and did the whole annoyance to lovers trope.

bonnie showed interest in having kids and was far more equipped to teach the next generation of supernaturals. additionally stefonnie had a much better set up post season 4 and kat and paul had amazing chemistry.

caroline never showed interest in children in any way shape or form and enjoyed every aspect of vampirism. it would’ve been more fitting for her to be with someone that fit the immortal lifestyle she set out to live, which enzo could’ve done (i honestly would’ve loved single!caroline but if i couldn’t have that or forwood, carenzo would’ve been my next choice for her).

[mdrnwitch]

The fact that Stefan and Bonnie never developed a deeper friendship/ any romantic relationship is crazy to me. Especially considering the parallels with the whole drowning vs. her being dead for a whole summer. The Silas/Quetsiyah of it all. Like??? Can you imagine the meltdown Quetsiyah would've had if Stefan, the doppelganger of the man she was supposed to marry, fell for Bonnie, her descendant??? The constant self-sacrifice, lack of self-preservation, and lack of self-worth, both these characters hold, the perfect set-up for great angst. The story was naturally geared towards Stefonnie and the fact that it never happened or was even considered?? Wild to me. I am always so fascinated by the way the TVD writers constantly ignored the natural progression of certain characters' arcs for stupid shit.

Stefonnie deleted scene

I’ll never get over the deleted Bonnie and Stefan scenes from season 1 episode 11. This was such a sweet moment that really highlighted Bonnie emotions about her new reality. For some reason some Stan’s act as if they can’t read between the lines with certain characters in certain situations in regard to their feelings and Bonnie’s the main example of that. The show never gave Bonnie a moment to truly express her feelings in most situations in a vulnerable way but THIS WAS THIS WAS THEIR MOMENT!!!

This scene was their moment to give insight to Bonnie’s inner emotions that she hid Instead of giving her the “I’ll be strong” attitude that was so single noted. Although I don’t think this scene would of changed a lot of fans feelings towards Bonnie’s since she was still on guard and judgment to vampires/their faves it still would of been nice to see a more vulnerable side to Bonnie to add more depth to her character. Bonnie wasn’t just scared of vampires she was scared of being a witch and it’s not bc she hated it all it’s because she needed time to understand what was going on around her.

I DONT KNOW WHY STANS ACT LIKE THATS AN ABNORMAL FEELING TO HAVE (besides the obvious her hating on their faves).

Side note: this was such a good Stefonnie scene as well and I hate that the writers ruined the potential friendship that could have been them.

This Scene:

Did you ever ship Stefan and Bonnie?

I'm actually so shocked I've never discussed this here because I was obsessed with Stefonnie for the longest time and this post is making me fall back into it.

Stefan and Bonnie had such a beautiful friendship in the early seasons. It was very similar to Caroline and Stefan. I was actually rooting for Bonnie over Caroline initially when it was clear Delena was going to be endgame. I love Steroline, but Stefonnie would have been such an organic friends-to-lovers ship (we know I love a good friend-to-lovers over enemies-to-lovers). Especially, since this was the time Forewood was still going strong and I loved them too. It would have been such a great time in TVD with these ships.

But of course, the writers refused to let Bonnie have everything and eventually shifted Stefan's attention from being split between his two friendships with Caroline and Bonnie to only Caroline. They only ever really get it back in the final season and it was essentially just to rub it in for Bonnie that Stefan, her once friend, murdered her love. This whole storyline was clearly just designed to isolate Bonnie completely from the group. Stefan was supposed to spend the rest of his life making it up to her and then died so we didn't even get to see them repairing their relationship. If they were going to get together, it would have to be before this.

Stefan is the first vampire that Bonnie starts to feel comfortable with after her, very reasonable, hatred of vampires. Because he put in the effort. Even Caroline just wanted Bonnie to get over her fear/hatred without putting in too much effort. But Stefan spent time making her feel comfortable. And the fact that he had Grams approval goes a long way with Bonnie. Stefan on multiple occasions attempts to stop Bonnie from doing dangerous spells that he does want to happen, but he prioritizes her safety. He had so much respect and love for her from the beginning.

Him asking so gently if he can come in and her little nod. This right here shows that their friendship at the bare minimum should have been prioritized. How do you not see romantic potential in this??

Even when he was a ripper, he never harms Bonnie. Or when Stefan and Damon had to kill her mom but Damon does it so *Elena* won't hold it against Stefan. Let's be honest, if Elena can forgive Damon for murdering her brother, she would have quickly moved on from Abby's death. But, to me, it was so important for it not to be Stefan because *Bonnie* never would have forgiven him.

I would have much rathered Stefan getting stuck on the otherside/prison world with Bonnie and repairing their friendship and developing a romantic relationship. Stefan was so protective of Bonnie that it would have given Bonnie a lot more support than she initially got from Damon. I know I am just biased and hate Damon, but I felt like their development was forced. Literally. They never would have interacted like that in other circumstances. I do think Damon needed that friendship, since the only time we see him have any character development is with Bonnie, but that wasn't Bonnie's job. Forcing her to befriend a man she hated, a man who murdered her mom, for his development was just never a favorite story of mine. But Stefan with her would have given her some comfort. I think she also would have had more faith in Stefan coming back for her and saving her if he was forced to leave her behind.

They fit so well together. They both have similar morals and a strong sense of righteousness. They both will sacrifice themselves for those they love and will bend their morals for their loved ones, but at the end of the day they are the heart of the friend group. They also were always trying to stop the other one from sacrificing themselves, understanding that the people the other was harming themselves for wasn't necessarily worth it.

Bonnie deserved to be loved like that. After losing her entire family and everyone she cared about, she deserved to have someone love her the way Stefan loves. And Stefan wanted to be human again. He would have taken the cure and they could have left Mystic Falls behind, coming back for holidays, but getting away from the toxic relationships they had with their family and friends.

As for storytelling purposes, this just shows that the show prioritized ships they viewed would be the most popular (which was based in racism) over the actual storytelling. Bonnie and Stefan has so many similar stories that they could have bonded over, like their summer that no one knew they were missing and their parental issues. But also their history. Elena and Stefan were not the only two reflected in the story with Silas and Amara. There was also Qetsiyah. The full circle story that could have been if they had Silas' shadow-self (Stefan) fall for Qetsiyah's descendant (Bonnie), leaving Amara's shadow-self (Elena). Instead the show spent time forcing parallels by retconning itself with flashbacks.

I loved Bonenzo and Steroline, but if they had done Stefonnie right, it would have been my top ship. They had so much potential to show the development and to actually allow the characters to experience their emotions and work through their trauma. They would have helped each other as friends and fallen in love as they did. They are two of my favorite characters from TVD so it is no wonder I would love them together.

Now excuse me while I go find some fics to read!

Thanks for the ask!

I Know What You Did Last Summer AU

In a small town called Mystic Falls, high school senior Bonnie Bennett receives a note in the mail that reads, "I know what you did last summer". The previous summer, Bonnie, her then-boyfriend Stefan Salvatore, and their two friends, Matt Donovan and Caroline Forbes were driving home after partying in the woods. They accidentally ran over their history teacher, Alaric Saltzman, and dumped his body in the lake. The four young friends bound by the tragic accident are reunited when they find themselves being stalked by a hook-wielding maniac.

Besides Klaus who else do you ship bonnie with ?

I did say Bonnie deserved hoes. That went for everyone. It is the least the plot could do is uplift Bonnie’s desirability given everyone needs her magic.

No one ever gives a good argument why a noncanon Bonnie ship shouldn’t have happened. “She’s too good for them” “That pairing is so toxic”. “Platonic for a reason…” For example: Kol killed Davina and she married him. No one says anything about Kolvina. But if Bonnie is too good what does that say about your fave for being paired with said toxic man…

They usually mean anyone but the black girl.
