The prodigal son

Derek Mikaelson

Good Morning...

Cake is the worst thing ever. I’m never eating another bite again…ever…

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

You don't like cake?

Private: I sincerely hope you'll be able to attend mine and Quinn's wedding ceremony.

Private: ...I wish you both happiness. But i do hope that you find the time in your oh so "renewed" heart to get that lovely little wedding you have planned and shove it up your ass.

"Throughout your whole life there will be decisions.

None are good and none are bad. The choices are simply laid out before us and whichever we choose simply shapes us into who we are. A good person, or a bad person."

I miss you. I long for the chance to say goodbye. The chance that i will never be given

Mikael told me while he was on team anti-Klaus with the Salvatore brothers.

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

So you met the man...

Were you there when he...

missfiercepierce replied to your post: So,

Aren’t I always?

But how did you know that i was a part of your... Petrova bloodline? 

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

So,

It seems as if you're right, Katherine.

Because I want a son, he just doesn’t want me. If what you want is to not know me, then you’ll get what you want. But just so we’re clear, Derek: I am not the vicious monster Mikael concocted in your head… I’m just a man trying to be a father.

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

It was not a concoction. I've seen the aftermath of your destruction. That you may be, Klaus, but you're also a man unfit to ever be one.

Love is for children…forever…that’s for people. Forever is something that burns you. That makes a fire inside of you. Forever is what everyone is looking for. How is he being rewarded? Because he has me? Because I’m making him feel? Because he wants to be with me. Love is for children…but sometimes you have to fight for that feeling. That’s a good reason to fight. Get to know him, learn who he really is. Or are you scared?

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

You clearly do not understand what i'm trying to get across to you. He. Kills. He reached around the neck of a child and snapped it out of place. He thrust his hand into the chest of a woman and tore her heart clean out of place. He made a husband and father watch as he did so and killed him afterwards. He did this because he could. For no legitimate reason he killed hundreds more. Why would i bother getting to know him? When i've spent centuries doing just that. But congratulations, you've caught a keeper, I must say

A year before our family’s transformation, Tatia and I eloped to be wed. Upon getting married we… Conceived a child. Mikael found us and forced me to return to the village with my siblings. I promised your mother I would return by nightfall and we would leave together. I returned to our home and she was gone. She had left me. I spent the past year trying to find her, so far as enlisting my siblings’ assistance. Nine months into it, our parents approached us with the idea of turning into vampires. We had no choice in the matter and I never got to see Tatia again. It was only when we found out that we consumed her blood did we realize she died. That Mikael and Esther had killed her. I never knew Tatia had a child, let alone mine.

And i suppose you're getting one hell of a kick out of this, aren't you? What are you hoping to achieve by stepping forward as my father? What do you care if my father is you or Mikael. So what if i know who my real father is? You might be my father but i am not your son. 

[cassidycarlyle-blog]

The facts speak for themselves! Mikael is every bit a monster as I am. He took you from me without my knowledge to spite me.

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

How could he have taken me from you when you didn't even know of my existence?

[cassidycarlyle-blog]

Do you still not believe me, Derek?

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

I still do not have reason too

[lionheartedquinn]

You’re right, I’ve never seen that. But you haven’t seen the way that he loves. He loves so much that is can be suffocating to some He loves me…if he didn’t he wouldn’t have just asked me to marry him. He loves. Do you have a death wish as well Derek? Don’t you see how much they have grown? What they want in life. Haven’t you ever fallen in love?

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

Do you really think that the way he loves will truly cross out the lives that he has taken away from innocent people? A child will never hear his mother's voice or a mother will never hear the laughter of her baby, because he kills. Do you think that love suddenly makes him a better person? Because for years i have watched as he tore away the hopes and dreams of many. He has done nothing to pay for his actions and now he's being rewarded!? I do not care what he does to me, i will take him down with me. Love is for children.

[lionheartedquinn]

That’s not true Derek, you’re blinded by Mikael’s hate for Klaus. He’s not a bad man, he just wants a family…he just wants people to love him. People who will love him. He saved my life because he loved me. He loves. He can love. And you can to. You deserve to live…to be happy.

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

You clearly have not witnessed first hand the capabilities of such a man. Dismembered bodies of men, woman and children alike lay scattered across an innocent's house. We tracked him at some point and the destruction, pain and suffering this man has caused is far more than one could ever comprehend. He can not love. He is incapable of loving anything. We all lived our lives to it's supposedly fullest potential, it is unnatural that we outlive it any longer. Mark my words, Quinn Fabray, they will not survive.

[lionheartedquinn]

She’s gone, my friend risked her life to save mine. Your mother was planning on killing you…didn’t you know that? She thought you were an abomination…but you aren’t. None of you are monsters.

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

Well that is simply great. I never had the chance to speak to her and still, she had her eyes set on killing me. And my father, the real one who raised me is gone and the only family i have left is Niklaus. The shameless and maniacal one. We are all monsters, Quinn Fabray. And we do not deserve to live.

[lionheartedquinn]

Confirmation that your mother possessed me and that Klaus is your father…it’s all true…

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

Where is she?

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

I have been patiently awaiting confirmation...

[cassidycarlyle-blog]

Fine

[derek--mikaelson-blog]

Good
