#can we just take a minute to look at every little detail of this though? #this isn’t just a hug #it’s an embrace #here we have damon salvatore literally stroking jeremy’s hair #yes damon is unbelievably sad that bonnie is dead #he is probably even a little surprised just how sad he really is #but despite all of that this hug is about jeremy #look how tight his grip is #like ‘it’s okay, i’ve got you’ #’daddy is here’ #’you can cry if you want to’ #’i love you’ #and also just last season jeremy said that damon doesn’t give a damn about him and was only keeping him alive because of elena #but no one sees this #no one knows this has happened #this is not for elena or anyone else #this is for jeremy #because somewhere along the way damon grew to love jeremy as his own family #and just knowing what this will do to jer and the love of his life rips him apart inside #just look in his eyes #goodbye friends i am gone
