Um, wow. Another action packed show tonight! Warmed up my little Damon/Bonnie loving heart when she smacked him good in the beginning...will they ever happen? Guess not based on Damon's 1,000,000th declaration of love to Elena at the end. I'm getting ahead of myself! Let's discuss a few key points.
Bonnie
So Bonnie is super strong and has the ability to kill Klaus, but...because Klaus was possessing Alaric, they let all their secrets out. He planned to try to kill Bonnie and attacked Jeremy but my Salvatore boys are no dummies and quickly figured it out. Meanwhile, Bonnie has had to say a million times that this is a sacrifice she's willing to make. I found the scenes between her and Elena really touching. It was nice to see two girls having this conversation instead of Stefan or Damon saying for the millionth time that they are going to protect Elena at all costs. Glad Jeremy actually mentioned that he knows he has a bad track with girlfriends and I was crossing my fingers this wasn't some kind of foreshadowing...and well it might have been but even while it appeared Bonnie died, she didn't! I was pretty sure it was a spell she cast on herself, since they didn't show us the convo between her and Damon, but I still was really touched by the scene and the dramatic music and I felt for Elena. But yay, Bonnie isn't dead!
Elena revives Elijah
Okay so I was really excited about this because I enjoy Elijah and all the reasons why were confirmed in the preview. :) I also like that Elena is making a choice for herself...I'm getting tired of her being the ultimate damsel in distress and I'm hopeful that she'll be allowed to make some smart choices that save them.
Damon/Elena
I still would like to see a Damon/Bonnie relationship because I think Damon needs to be with a girl who's strong and can hold her own. And in my opinion that's Bonnie (or Katherine). And well, they have mad chemistry. And while I'm enjoying Jeremy with Bonnie, he needs to trust her power and ability to make decisions for herself. But I'll probably never get to see Damon/Bonnie because he is hopelessly in love with Elena. He will always choose her. Sigh. But I know this triangle is the fuel of the show and it's fine with me, I really watch it for the fun plot.
Caroline/Matt
I HATED what happened last week with Matt. Hated! I don't like Matt and now I like him even less. Caroline is my favorite and I hate seeing her be deceived by someone she loves. I want Tyler back.
How did you feel about tonight? Looking forward to the arrival of the real Klaus?

The Vampire Diaries Discussion: 2.18 The Last Dance
Logging you in...
I stopped watching earlier this season. I am a Stefan/Elena fan and Damon did many things that I will never forgive him for and I cannot buy a Damon/Elena pairing... But that is just me. I know I am in the minority in this.
Yeah I know how you feel. Damon killed her brother after all. If he wasn't a vampire, I'd probably hate on him a lot more....but I still kind of love him. But Stefan/Elena are still together!
Heh, I am still for a Damon/Elena pairing and that is because I just cannot see Damon/Bonnie happening and frankly Stefan/Elena is getting a little boring. But I do not see DE happening anytime soon or ever, at this point, either.
I like Elena taking control of the situation, like you said, for as much as she can at this moment. I actually like Bonnie and Jeremy. I hope Jeremy won't be disappointed again.
And stupid Matt!
Also, I liked this episode much better than I have liked the episodes lately. I have to say season 2 isn't living up to my expectations since episode 9 or so.

I think they burn through story way too fast, and don't focus enough on the relationships, but I'm glad you liked last night! Bonnie and Jeremy are cute, I'm not complaining, I just think a Damon/Bonnie pairing would be interesting, but I don't think I'll ever get to see it.
It would be interestesting. And I agree that Damon needs someone stable. And I wonder if Elena could be that, at the moment. It is just that I'd like it if the writers would for once give Damon a glimpse of happiness instead of always throwing obstacles in his way and him acting out because of it. Kind of tired of that storyline. So I can see why Damon and Bonnie would be interesting.
And I agree, they go through storylines way too fast, while for me, the relationships make it more interesting.

totally agree about Damon! I want him to have happiness as well, I'm just not sure the show will ever let us see it. :(
I was terribly disappointed with the Matt angle too. And I wanted to whack the Sheriff and tell her that this is the 2nd time she's in possession of this information! And now she's acting like she pounced on this secret. Ok, yeah. I get it that her memory was modified, but I still can't help but say that.
Whoa! It seems that I should have to read this story coz feels like I'm getting behind.
I'm right there with you on the Caroline thing. I enjoy her most when she's a bit bithcy/evil/strong/vulnerable and now that Tyler is gone and she's with Matt again we're back to the whiny insecure girl. I hope this is all just a set up for Tyler's return and we can give Matt the book asap.
