Would they be sad if I died?
that's a very sad question, xiamoisverycool. I hope you're not in a super dark place right now. I'm sending you all the love and hugs, just in case 🫂💕 I'm happy you are visiting my blog, thank you so much <3
about your other ask—please don’t be discouraged if I don’t reply right away. whenever I get active on tumblr again, I usually get flooded with messages, so yours might get pushed down the list. it doesn’t mean you’re bothering me. I just cannot easily keep up with everyone ^^
(you didn't say which characters, so I'll go with our two main ones)
DG:
What he would feel first would be cold fury and emptiness. Your death might reinforce his worst fears about himself, that he's not capable of protecting people he values, that his artificial nature means he's fundamentally broken or incomplete. That would bother him immensely, and enrage him.
The circumstances of the death would matter enormously to him. If someone killed you, his response would be swift and brutal. The person responsible for your death would suffer tremendously. His "grief" would be expressed through revenge, through making someone pay for taking what was his.
After that, he might break down alone, or only in front of Damon/ Helen. The most disturbing possibility is what DG might do with your body. He may actually keep parts of you. Your death could trigger some truly horrific coping mechanisms.
Damon:
Damon would be devastated. If you died, his first reaction would be denial, an almost cold, clinical refusal to accept that you’re gone. He would convince himself that he had missed something, that there must be a loophole, a way to undo it, a way to reach you. The grief turns into obsession, and the obsession turns into rage.
Once the truth sinks in, grief hits him like a physical wound. He’s angry, not just at the world but at himself for not protecting you. He becomes extremely volatile, directionless, and dangerous to anyone who might be remotely responsible or even just nearby. It could actually trigger his beast form.
He mourns you in silence, but also with violence. He isolates himself. The loss rots inside him until it shapes everything he does afterward. He wouldn’t “move on.” Not really. A part of him would stay centered on you forever :(
