look who is roaming around mystic falls — it's KLAUS MIKAELSON [ JOSEPH MORGAN / CIS MAN / HE + HIM / THE VAMPIRE DIARIES ] . according to our records , they are a 1,000+ year old ORIGINAL HYBRID and in town because HE'S ITCHING TO BREAK HIS CURSE AND FINALLY UNLEASH THE FULL EXTENT OF THE MONSTER HIS MOTHER WAS SO AFRAID OF . makes sense why they are a UNEMPLOYED and have been rumored to be RUTHLESS and MANIPULATIVE . haven't you heard the latest gossip about how HIS DISEASE OF LONELINESS HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE, ALWAYS LURKING IN THE BACKGROUND, THREATENING TO TWIST HIM INTO SOMEONE HE DOESN'T RECOGNIZE ?? i hope they're ready for what's in store , though it doesn't seem that way . play TWISTING THE KNIFE by ICE NINE KILLS and distract your mind . here they come !!
DIVERGENCES. cracks knuckles ok not even technically divergences so much as reminders ig (especially bc later seasons of tvd + the originals lost the plot abt this sometimes??) but klaus is THE BIG BAD. he is the worst! your muse cannot, should not mouth off to him unless we plot out some reason they won't get hurt or die bc he does NOTTT fuck around hewwo? he is also the victim of some pretty serious abuse way back in the day that has ultimately led to HIM being an abuser of his siblings himself tbh so their relationships are immensely complex. he is manipulative, he is sadistic, he torments people just for the hell of it, call it some self-soothing rituals <3 that's not to say he doesn't have good in him somewhere... deep down... rly deep down! but like... do you actually want to get close and try to find it?
MOTIVATIONS. fear. he wants power (and right now? that means unleashing his inner wolf & breaking that curse, let's go), he wants authority, he wants to maintain control, all because at his core klaus is afraid of having anything less, of being vulnerable and hurt and isolated, of being cast back into the role of victim. the majority of his actions and paranoia stem from this. (notable soft spot: his siblings. under it all, if they were truly thrown into harm's way? he'd do and risk a lot to prevent their deaths.)
CONNECTIONS. vampires or witches or angels/demons he once knew from somewhere in his bigass background, toys to play with / compel (these plots could get crazyyy depending on your muse fr), one night stands, powerful allies and/or people who feed him intel...
@volonox: “Torture, bloodsport? Or perhaps just a good old-fashioned walloping?”
Cursed day, so to speak, to accost him twice. You see, his itinerary’s gone through several executive lumps, of which the perpetrator is the glutton they speak of and Klaus his punishment.
If the suicidal lady insists.
“Needy thing that you are,” a second-rate experiment, the defective brother. Now, where was that werewolf bite—-
yes, here. His finger cosies into its blushed-around black hole and is, worry not, accepted; the rot works much like fungi. Softens the flesh and expands the bedside manner unmentionably beyond that of its host.
Damon’s underjaw blocks at the point of a swallow in Klaus’ palm. Bliss.
It was done, and so far there was no news on the next end of the world. At least that's what Lila had hoped to be the case. While Diego was cozy in bed, she couldn't sleep. Nights like these took her back to the days when she was with her alleged mother. The woman was psychotic and the mark she left on her was something she thought of a lot.
--And that's why Lila promised herself that she would be the best mother her child could ask for. Not that Lila was going to stop by for a drink, even though she truly needed one, her steps still hauled her down to the bar.
That's when she saw the familiar frame of their sibling, and the words came right out of her mouth within a moment. "Typicall Five is the one lurking around, worrying and paranoid, or just stressed." it was odd to see him up and about, but perhaps Lila had been so busy within her own business to realize the struggles of her -- siblings. Could she refer to them as that?
"Well Curly, what's the matter?" she sat herself down on the stool beside him and faced him. "Dr. Lila is in the house, speak to me." No, she was not close to being a doctor, but she's been in enough group therapy's to know what to expect, what to ask and for once, she wanted to help.
He has a love hate relationship wit silence. Most of the time, silence’s great! Silence means they’ve left him alone. And they left him alone because, most of the time, there’s something blocking them out. Strong or bleak, cheap or expensive, doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter so long as they shut up. His problem with silence comes in that time where something’s wearing off. Not enough to let them back in – never! – but enough for the whispers to crack through. Sometimes for his own voice to slip up some pretty annoying opinions too.
He’s alone, and he likes it, and its quiet, but the thought’s starting to creep up on him. It’s getting pretty late. Past the first AMs late. You’re gonna pass out soon. And you’ll have to excuse him, but he isn’t exactly thrill at the prospect of passing out in some bar only to get woken up and tossed out God knows where. No, seriously. He can’t name one street around. He needs to find someone to take him to sleep somewhere. And our lucky winner is … you, making eye contact there. Yeah, like what you see? He raises his glass. Just one sign and operation Home For A Night can begin.
