I look in people's window x Nikova Banks

I had died the tiniest death I spied the catch in your breath Out, out, out, out, out, out North bound I got carried away As you boarded your train South, south, south, south, south, south A feather taken by the wind blowing I'm afflicted by the not knowing so

Nik first met Kai when she was 17 and Kai was a senior in HS. Their paths were never meant to cross. Logically they would never work out. A girl who had been neglected her whole life with serious abandonment issues who has no future in front of her and is completely dependent on her brother who has no real means of taking proper care of a teenager and a rich guy who is expected to achieve great things and carry forward the hard worked legacy his father built. Kai would go off to college while Nik would wait for her brother to finish his studies so he could get her out of the house where no one cared for them. this didn't stop either of them from exploring their chemistry and they definitely wanted more from each other. But their problems and worries were worlds away.

I look in people's windows Transfixed by rose golden glows They have their friends over to drink nice wine I look in people's windows In case you're at their table What if your eyes looked up and met mine One more time

Nik was never allowed to have any friends other than the bodyguards Damon hired for her. Being a teenager with a social life was something she could only dream about. It was never within her reach. Damon never allowed her to be a part of any parties or functions. She was always an outsider (even in her own 'home') and only lived vicariously. Then her early twenties were used up surviving in Gabriel's household and earning his 'respect' and then finding/ protecting Damon from his friends. She never got the chance to worry about assignments and exams. Her problems were worlds away from what a normal teenager should experience. And the canon is as much as she had her hands full she still thought about Kai and him alone while he was around living his own life. He was the only 'good guy' she knew and she held onto him as tight as possible even though they might never meet again.

You had stopped and tilted your head I still ponder what it meant now, now Now, now, now, now I tried searching faces on streets What are the chances you'd be downtown Downtown, downtown Does it feel alright to not know me? I'm addicted to the 'if only'

I think this one would make more sense from Kai's pov. Nik understood him in a way no one had ever did before and that was important for Kai. He hardly spent a day with her and he knew that type of connection with attraction was rare. He searches for traces of her in every person he meets. And he spends a lot of time wondering about his cold, rude girl and what they could have been.

This is just my haphazardly put-together analysis so don't mind me. Thoughts are welcome.

[away-ward]

Rank the compatibility in real life of the DN couples. Suppose if they were not based in Thunder Bay which was their "playground ", would the dynamics change... like if Banks and Emmy were on financially equal level with Kai and Will... would the stories still play out the same way?

Hmmm. That's a difficult one. You're asking to change some of the fundamentals of the characters. At the same time, there's an element of 'fated', as there usually is with these types of stories.

I mean, there's no logical reason as a three-year-old, Michael would be completely obsessed with a new born and remain obsessed for the rest of his life.

So, of course changing some of the fundamentals is going to change some of their compatibility. But. . .

Kai and Banks are probably the most compatible.. At their core, Kai likes to hunt and Banks needs to feel wanted and desired. Whatever else is going on with them, that will always be true. Kai and Banks also have had the most changes in their lives. Both had a life in Meridian, a much larger city, before coming to Thunder Bay, and both had a period in life when they didn't have money. Changing their finances or location wouldn't be anything they couldn't deal with.

Taking them real world, I think they'd be fine.

But I now love the idea that even in Meridian, even without money, these two would have found each other. In the bonus scene, Kai mentioned that he went to a party in Meridian. That's the perfect set up for an AU.

Removing the abuse, the financial inequality, I still think Will and Emory are fairly compatible. They fall into the golden retriever bf/black cat gf. This is a very real dynamic and usually works pretty well. I've talked about how Will is more of a nerd than he appears at first read. They're both movie lovers, both like adventures, and are artistic. Giving Emory less of a reason to be angry and defensive just means they get together even sooner and without all the drama. Check out my high school willemmy headcanons because I think they're fun.

I think Willemmy can go the distance.

Rika and Michael are your typical power couple. They're both rich, both did fine outside of Thunder Bay, both have degrees in business. They don't need the town to make them work. Not really understand Rika and Michael means that I don't get what makes them compatible, but they don't have many incompatibilities.

They're also the most basic of all the couples.

Still, I think they might suffer from Michael's ambition, and Rika's lack of direction but refusal to be controlled. Taking away the obsession aspect between them, the friction might be too much for them. They also suffer from huge communication issues. Those two things might make it difficult if they were trying to live anywhere that wasn't Thunder Bay, where they feel comfortable and at home. They need the chaos that is Thunder Bay for them to lose control, which usually leads to them clearing the air. Without the occasional night of revelry that only Thunder Bay can safely give them, those problems would build up as we saw in Conclave.

The might not survive if they were anywhere else.

Damon and Winter need Thunder Bay the most to make them work. You start removing the foundation of their story, they start to crumble.

Part of Damon's obsession is because of their interaction as children. But if his father isn't throwing his weight around a small town and intimidating the other families, Damon is not hiding in a fountain and Winter has nothing to teach him.

If she's not blind, she doesn't get sent away and then she's not brought back to be the shiny new thing in TBP. At that point they're more similar to Rika and Michael, in that they grew up watching each other. She would also be much more independent, which is not something Damon would love. He likes that she is strong and outspoken with other people; he needs her to need him.

Even removing the town dynamic, Gabriel is still Gabriel and Damon a Dark Prince and Winter his ballerina. I think they'd be a couple that worked, but you wouldn't know why just by looking at them. On the surface, they're incompatible.

However, Winter being a successful ballerina might take her away before they could really fall for each other, and if Thunder Bay isn't a place that Damon has a particular draw to, he might not be inclined to stay. It brings their relationship and it's longevity into question.

-

I try not to let my biases get in the way, but having a better understanding of Willemmy and KaiBanks is kinda why I like them more, so it's probably inevitable that it seeped in. I also just see more problems with MichaelRika and DamonWinter. I

'd be interested in knowing how other people are ranking their compatibility as real world couples.

RANDOM DEVIL'S NIGHT THOUGHTS

~NUMBER 56~

How the Horsemen reacts when their wives come home after a week/month away from them from work/girls vacations.

Michael - Sends someone (Kai,Will,David,Lev) to get Rika from the airport. Arrives at his house at night till then Erika took some rest and slept and they played some "games" at night.

Kai - Makes sure the house is fine and all the dogs are fed and won't create a rukus when banks comes home and rests, sends someone to collect her from airport (David or Lev). Is cooking her favorite food for her when she arrives.

Damon - Picks Winter from the airport, takes her luggage and then convince her to drive the car back home.

Will - Reaches the airport half an hour before Emmy's flight lands, restless with energy, notices her and yells "Baby!",so loud that people turn and looks at him, then gives her the biggest smile possible, run towards her and hugs and kisses her "Missed you so much!, did you have fun?","I missed you too baby,so much", holds her hand, takes her bags from her even when she says she can hold them herself, drives them home while Emmy is smiling in the passenger seat and tells him she missed him and all about her time apart.
