My Queen! She's back and she's controlling fucking hell!

TVD 8x16-Play Crack The Sky

This is the end. The show that literally took over my life for the better part of five years…is over. The ship whom I have been trying so desperately to say goodbye to for the past two years, finally got the closure they deserved. And yet I’m still not ready to say goodbye. But for the sake on my insanity and my emotional well-being, I sure as hell am going to try. So, for me what this finale episode boils down to, are two things. Damon and Stefan, and Damon and Elena. So, let’s start with the latter, shall we?

“Hold on, I still want you.” - Delena

Look, I’m not going to sit here and try to write all this meta on Delena for the finale episode because there really isn’t much to go on. The Katherine fake out, I should have seen coming. I mean, it didn’t make sense to me that they would spoil it in the promos. But I guess I was just hoping that they wouldn’t go there. And I have to say that yes, the episode wasn’t exactly what I wanted. But, it was what I expected. And you guys know me, I’m not one to dwell on everything that we didn’t get, or could have been done better. So, you should know the next thing that I’m going to say. And that’s for the little Delena we got, it was beautiful. And I accept it. The reunion scene simply being a kiss without words exchanged, I think was perfect. The song really saying anything and everything that needed to be said for them. Because if you really think about, the essential journey for Delena ended back in 6x22. The rest was just subsidiary. I mean, I’m not saying that Elena waking and Damon reuniting with her wasn’t important… it was. But I think that what we got was enough. Elena woke up. She got to see Bonnie, Caroline, Alaric. She got to meet Josie and Lizzy. She got to see her brother, Jer, again. She got to marry Damon and live the human life she always wanted with the man that she fell so deeply in love with. Maybe they didn’t show it. Maybe some of you are even disappointed that they didn’t. But think about it this way… we saw everything else. We saw Elena meet Damon….twice. We saw Damon fall in love with her. We saw Elena struggle with her feelings for him. We saw Damon giving her the space she needed to figure out what it all means. We saw her choose him. We saw her lose him. We saw her forget him. We saw her fall in love with him all over again. We saw her remember him again. We saw him chose a human life with her. We saw them promise themselves to each other. We saw the most significant moments of their relationship. Elena’s vampirism being are essential part of that. Because even though their human lives hold the same amount of significance. Their lives as vampires is the foundation of their relationship. If it wasn’t for vampirism Damon would have never met her. And Elena? She may have never found the strength in herself to let Stefan go and admit her true feeling for Damon. This is “The Vampire Diaries” after all. So it makes sense to me that the writers didn’t dwell on Damon and Elena’s life as humans. Rather, they give us just a gist of it. Showing us that their long happy life together would eventually lead to them finding peace in the afterlife. Which, lets face it, deep down in our heart of hearts, that’s all any of us ever wanted for these characters.

“Tonight I saw a side of Damon that I hadn’t seen in a while. The older brother I looked up to.” - Stefan

Redemption. That’s why Stefan did what he did. Ever since he turned human again, he dedicated his time trying to make up for all the wrong that he had done has a vampire, even willing to let Caroline go to do it. Redemption is what he wanted more than anything. So, he goes against his brother’s wishes and gives up his life. It wasn’t because he loved his brother. It wasn’t because he wanted Elena to have the life with Damon that they have been patiently waiting for. Yes, those things may have inspired him to and even gave him the courage to sacrifice his life to save his brother. But the main reason he did it was for redemption. And if the situation were reversed, Damon would have done the same thing. And he was ready to do it. Despite the hope of ever seeing Elena again. Despite the fact that he thought he would never find peace. He was ready to sacrifice everything. For his little brother. And that’s what, above all else, made Stefan truly see the man that Damon has become. The man that was worth sacrificing everything for. The man that was worthy of getting everything he always wanted. So he made a decision. A decision that like so many years ago was so very, very selfish of him, forcing him to choose vampirism because he couldn't bare the thought of living an eternity without his big brother. But this time, his decision is probably the most selfless thing is has ever done. Forcing the cure to vampirism on him and sacrificing his life with Caroline. So that Damon can live out his human life with Elena. And that decision was influenced by Damon himself. Watching him over the years make the tough decisions that goes against other people’s wishes. Realizing that he has been the better man and the big brother that he needed every step of the way. And that was his journey. Finding that human part of his brother that has always been there. Which Damon an shown him time and time again but just couldn’t let himself see. Because he would let all the bad and all the guilt overshadow it. But in the end it was his desire for redemption that finally let him see it. So, Stefan dies and finds Elena in the hallways where they first met before he finds peace. Not only to say goodbye but because he needed to tell Elena that he finally sees what she sees. The human part of Damon that Elena has always seen but has yet to met. And of course, he needed for her to pass along a message to Caroline. That in which he is finally able to let go and find peace.

“I know this is what you want A funeral keeps both of us apart You know that you are not alone Need you like water in my lungs This is the end.”
