And we're back!
Pretty good episode I thought, lots of interesting stuff.
The stuff about Alaric's ring is a bit strange, I'm guessing it's something witchy related - how else could it have the ability to resurrect if it wasn't for a spell?
I found the scene where Jeremy was compelled really sad, Damon was so genuine about why he was doing it. However, I think it was a dumbass idea on Elena's part. Yes it sucks that he has to live like that, but cutting off that hybrid's head was his way of demonstrating he's prepared to go to lengths that others, Elena herself, aren't prepared to go to. Bad move.
Loooooved the Stefan and Damon stuff. I was a bit bummed that it was kind of played down with the violence and the humor of it all but I'm glad that Damon knows.
I'm super conflicted about the last scene. It didn't bother me too but I still wasn't anywhere near "woo" about it. I still stand by the fact it will be a detriment to Damon's character. The wanting something that he can't have has added this new layer to him where he is sensitive and genuine...I don't know.
I really liked Stefan's line about how Klaus took everything away from him and now he's going to do it back. I think if Damon had relayed those words to Elena, the kiss would have been a bit different....nice throwback to season one, though.

The Jeremy thing is so infuriating and is another thing that is putting me off on this show to be honest. I hear Elena preach and preach each episode until I don't think she can preach anymore lol and then she takes ten steps back to season one and I think it irritates me most because like you said Peyton Jeremy is willing to do what needs to be done and Elena herself has been training and can't.
I don't even know how to feel about Damon/Elena/Stefan anymore. I am beginning to dislike them all at times well maybe not Damon as much. I think the show has gotten to focused on making fans happy with both of them. That is where a triangle fails to me. They have played both sides for a while now and eventually they will have to choose. Do you feel the same way Peyton? I saw the kiss early on but still then I was kind of like finally mixed with why bother?
I figured out my problem though I don't really like Elena as a character so I get annoyed with her all the time lol. I never really liked Nina though on Degrassi. She impressed me with how much her acting improved since then but I don't know I am not crazy over her. I think she gets the job done well at times though. Also I was thinking about all my triangles. For example Lucas/Brooke/Peyton I like all three of them. Even love two of them among favorite characters so it doesn't bother me as much and I can see what Lucas sees in both girls. Does that make sense? Sorry for ranting it is just I don't know I am kind of sad that I used to look forward to this show and now I just let it pile up.

Lol, we're in pretty much the same place when it comes to Elena. I think you're making sense with the whole not liking Elena thing and how it affects your engagement with the love triangle. I don't think either of the brothers deserve Elena so I don't want her with either of them. She just brings them down and that annoys me so I'm also kind of done with it. I only like the Stefan and Elena scenes we've had recently because of how it gives Stefan another layer. As for Damon and Elena I think I'm just a bit tired of it all. She seems to be going towards having genuine strong feelings for him and than acts like she finds his love for her nothing short of annoying y'know? Where are you up to now, Marisa? I don't want to say too much so let me know if we need another thread up so we don't spoil anything in here!

I think this was the last episode I watched but I will catch up tomorrow hopefully so we can talk. I know some things about Caroline in the new episodes and want to see it lol.
Exactly I agree glad I am not the only one I felt like I am the only one who can't jump on one of these ships bandwagons. Yes it does give Stefan another layer I am just afraid once he is done with this storyline he will just go back to all about Elena which would suck because Stefan is interesting. Yep she acts like Damon's love is bad yet she teases him with lines like "where were you damon?" kind of like I don't want you but you have to always be here for me.
Quick question do you mind if I use a cover for your lucas/peyton video? I found a good cover I like. I am in a huge one tree hill mood the new season inspired me. I actually finished a video but it wouldn't render so I have to fix that.

No of course not, it's the words of the song that ring true for them as opposed to Adele's version of it. Plus I know youtube can be a bitca for use of songs. When you've watched M, open up a new thread or something and we can ramble on in there

Alaric's ring was a bit weird but overall it was a great episode!
