The way the characters were interacting or how every environment felt lived-in. Everything just felt so real. I miss the skam real time experience so much
both of them have such deep abandonment issues Elena has lost nearly everyone she’s loved & Damon constantly feels like the second choice. One of the most beautiful parts of their relationship is how they keep trying to make sure the other never feels abandoned or unwanted again
When Elena finally chooses Damon and tells him she loves him not once but three times and that he is the only one who makes her feel alive and Damon’s reaction is literally everything, he can’t believe that the love of his life has finally chosen him. It’s such an iconic scene.
