at what age did jeremy realize he was almost exclusively into men, and how did he react to it?

in a lot of ways, jeremy sort of... always suspected? it was very confusing for him, of course, because i do write him as having had quite a long-winded childhood crush on caroline, so he is very much in this sort of position where... when people in his age group started being interested in people romantically, “finding girls hot”, whatever, he went “i don’t really like girls like that” but then would look at caroline and go “but her i like like that”, so he... didn’t understand any of that. in many respects he always internally suspected he was gay, but then would never make that connection because of his crush on caroline. very “i can’t be, because i like her”, and growing up in a small town, he really only knew about heterosexuality, homosexuality, and maybe bits and pieces of bisexuality - but he never felt any connection to the label of ‘bisexual’ because again - it was only caroline he felt that for.

it only feels REAL, though, during s1-slightly before s1, where him and tyler are at each other’s throats all the time, and in a roundabout way, he finds fighting more...... stimulating? erotic? i don’t quite know the right term, but something like that - than anything with vicki has ever been. and in a lot of ways, jeremy is disgusted by it, by himself - not because he’s finally confronted the fact that he was gay (or, more correctly, heavily more preferential to men), but because he doesn’t understand what’s so wrong with him that getting into fist fights with another guy makes him happier than having actual sex with vicki has ever done. so, really, he knew to some degree even before his relationship with anna - but his relationship with anna was focused more about ‘she’s the only person who pays attention to me, and she seems to like me, so i need to do everything possible to keep her happy’ than any attraction on his part.

after season one, he sort of resigns himself to “okay, i’m gay, caroline is just a fluke, if i ever dated her i’d probably end up hating it even though i actually kind of like spending time with her now”, and because he’s not the type to hang out at a GSA or anything (not that i even think mystic falls had one), he had to tell himself to be okay with that label, even though it never felt right to him. 

in DENVER, he sort of gets more knowledgeable of the LGBTQA+ community, because it’s a bigger place, a city, basically, so he learns about terms he never would have dreamed of in mystic falls. it’s there that he learns about the term “homoflexible” and “heteroflexible”, and that’s sort of when he feels right with a label for the first time in his life. because yes, he likes men - he likes them a lot - but every once in a while, (once in his life, so far, since he’s still a teen/16-ish) he meets a girl/woman who he can have that connection with. if he really wanted to break it down, he’d probably say with men he’s homosexual, and with women he’s demiromantic - someone who only feels anything after he’s built an actual bond with them/has known them for a long time. but that, in his mind, is way too complicated of a breakdown, especially when ‘homoflexible’ fits him perfectly well. finding that label was very much a sigh of relief for him, a sense of ‘i’m home’ because it finally explained all of the conflicting feelings he’d had for most of his adolescence, and that’s all he really needs.

GRANTED, he does just ‘i’m gay’ people when they ask, because since his attraction to women is so rare, he doesn’t want to get people’s hopes up. but yes, in denver is where he finally learns the term for his sexuality, and it was very easy for him to slip into it, but the realization of “i vastly prefer men” was actually really hard on him, not because of internalized homophobia, but because the situation that MADE him realize was extremely toxic, and he didn’t understand how that was what he wanted (or preferred, technically, with the two options he had at the time). it also definitely is a bit of a precursor to his more unhealthy relationship tendencies later, so it’s FITTING for him, but still a very difficult situation for him to process at the time.

❛ for being someone you hate, i'm sure on your mind a lot. ❜ @ elijah !

" --- you are making many assumptions, Katerina," he begins. "First, on the amount of time you are on my mind and secondly, the emotion I feel when you are."

[freezegirl]

you pretend you have nothing to say, but i can tell you do.

their vicious games / @kahterina

at first, khione doesn't see her. so engrossed is she that she's missed the flash of red hair. indeed, all she's focused on is the way she glides over the ice as she runs through the performance once more. the music swells and it is only after she's finished the routine - after working her way through an illusion spin, a regular spin and a knee slide to get herself to that point: on her knees, back bent - that she looks up, still upside down, and meets katherine's eyes.

it takes her a moment to get back up on her feet again and a few moments more to cut the music: this bombastic, epic version of hit the road, jack might be her new favorite. even over jvke's golden hour, which is, for all intent and purposes, her song.

and speaking of things that are hers: how is it that this lady keeps finding her everywhere? first, it's the studio. now it's the ice arena. what is it with this lady and conveniently - inconveniently, more like - showing up wherever khione is?!

"you pretend you have nothing to say," katherine says, "but i can tell you do."

there are only a few options here, khione realizes as dread pools in her stomach:

one) katherine wants something from her or wants her to do something. two) this is all a game to her because she's bored, and khione is here, and enhanced individuals age slower, live longer, which means whatever game katherine wants to play would last longer, too. three) she wants her to talk. she's poking and prodding because khione doesn't give in; she'll poke and prod until khione gives in, and then she'll move on to her next target. four) she's obsessed, plain and simple. (obsessed like some of her classmates are. they look at her and they want and want and want and want. some want her broken. shattered like an ice sculpture. others want her in other ways and lose themselves in venereal daydreams instead.)

at this point, khione doesn't know which option she'd prefer.

(it's not like she doesn't know what it's like to want and to need. except she can't; with one touch, she hurts. steals people's body heat. turns their skin blue.)

so she levels katherine with a look instead of deigning to answer her.

it is said that eyes are the window to the soul, after all.

❛ can we please just talk? ❜ @ lucy!

" --- talk? The last time we talked, you dragged me into a mess that nearly got me killed. Not to mention you tried to pit me against my own family. Whatever you got to say, I don't want to hear it."

[freezegirl]

“this is so sweet, i could hurl.”

we're through being cool / @kahterina

okay, is her first thought, then hurl. so long as you do it away from me and my art.

her second thought is not as kind: why exactly should i care?

seven words in and khione goossens is already tired of katherine pierce and the grating sound of her voice. it reminds her too much of gwen grayson. of course, none of that shows on her face. it's a careful mask. cold like the element she wields so well.

all katherine gets in response is a look before khione focuses on the half-done ice sculpture in front of her once more, clutching a hand saw. it's supposed to be a rendition of lucky, kate's dog.

@kahterina continued from here

Loki returns her displeased look with an entirely unbothered expression. That look doesn’t work on them anymore. “Darling you know you can’t play the age card on me as if I were some sort of mortal.” Nimble fingers lift their glass to their mouth, coating thin lips in a deep red they choose not to brush away.

Hand reaches out and twists, pulling a set of keys from their pocket dimension and suspending them in the air above their palm. They nod in the direction of the red ferrari parked across the street from the cafe they're seated at. “I don’t suppose I could interest you in a repeat performance? Perhaps preceded by a little trip?”
