Also I stalked your userpics to see what you stole. I'm a psycho stalker. SO:

CAN WE PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE MY NEVER DYING LOVE FOR THAT 2x10 TOMB SCENE?





+ From a ~technical standpoint (lol @ my words) I appreciate the filming of the scene: it starts from Elena running to the tomb and Damon stopping her and at some point moves to Stefan and Katherine listening in from the tomb. WHICH IS AMAZING. Because TVD is set as, here, guys, have Stefan and Elena, they are THE couple. Also, while we're at it, let's have some sexual tension with her and his brother, Damon. In short: THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A STORY ABOUT DAMON/ELENA. And in many ways, it's not: they're in front of the tomb because Elena is here looking for STEFAN. It doesn't have anything to do with Damon. But then this strange thing happens, and suddenly WE, viewers, are LISTENING to the scene happening OUTSIDE, from Stefan's point of view, while the scene continues out of Stefan's reach (=not his story anymore) while Damon is out there with her. HE IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THERE. IT'S ALL AN ACCIDENT. And then the show manages to MAKE ME FEEL THAT: it makes me feel like this is NOT STEFAN'S STORY at that moment: it makes me feel like STEFAN FEELS like he is an outsider. AND THAT IS WHY, in my opinion,THAT IS A GLORIOUS SCENE.
