Happy V Day Klarofam
Jay has a shipping crisis and realizes something important. I'm sorry it's so long and I'm sorry I'll put like 10 different thoughts here.
So around 11 PM last night I got the sads...the Klaroline Sads. For some reason in the midst of laughing at the Originals panel, it hit me that I was also a bit jealous of ships that are soaring on canon while I don't know the next time we will see ours on screen. Late I noticed that @cbk1000 had answered some questions and mentioned The Contract as a fanfic she is enjoying. So I went to check it out and proceeded to drown my sorrows in it like it was whiskey. I’ve been reading it all day while bitching to @Marisol40 and @livingdeadblondequeen how sad I am. Then a thought occurred to me. I want to start by saying that I will not stop shipping KC and will still be pretty vocal about it but hear this out. JP and her band of writers will never be able to do KC justice. At least not the way our fanon has done. We have taken this pairing and taken it so far that it has transcended. It’s bigger than the shows. It’s beautiful in ways that can’t be explained. Don’t get me wrong, the chemistry between the actors and Candice and Joseph are amazing together but what our fanon has done is beyond them, beyond words. The fact that I spent time crying yesterday over A Promise Forgiven but Not Forgotten and the depth of his feelings is proof. Today, the smiles I’ve gotten reading The Contract…Will they ever be able to do that? Think about every KC fanfic and I was while driving home. All these amazing fics that we read and touch our hearts and we become obsessed with. And I got teary eyed when the thought caught my head. We won. We've taken Klaroline to a place it was never meant to go. Klaroline, the ship that was born by the writers’ mistake, is bigger than anything they can create. It’s greater than intended and it will keep growing and being beautiful even though they are doing their darnest to keep it from our screens. They will never be able to replicate this or create anything that resembles it. Why? Because they’re too busy trying to rush something to this level when this, like Rome, wasn’t created in a day. It took two years of development. And they want us to believe he opened up to that chick in a week and she is already diagnosing him. They want to accelerate a connection that developed through interactions; a build up that was slow and magnificent. And all I can think is we won. They are desperately trying to shake us but we grow. The fanfics grow in number, the dashboards are always full, new follower. Their fans try to ridicule us but deep down they know. Your OTP has had two scenes together and people are trying to celebrate like we did during the graduation scene, or when Caroline touched his face and brought her mouth to his. They can’t. None of those ships are as strong as ours. Klaroline will always be the elephant in the corner. The ghost haunting each and every one of the writers’ attempts to give Klaus a new one. Because none will be like this. We know he loves her and how much. They will never be able to erase that. So while we fight tooth and nail to see it on TV, remember this war has already been won. Our OTP soars. Now we just need to get them to see that.
Attention Klaroliners
I'm going to post this from today until the day it airs and all day that day. Episode 1x20 of that show on the CW that airs Tuesday Nights at 8PM will be written by a mean, un unsavory, vindictive person who hates us (Klaroliners) with a passion. I have no doubts she intends to stick it to us in the worst way possible. I am BEGGING and IMPLORING to all of you: Whatever is said or happens on that episode (or on that show), please do not give her the satisfaction of seeing you react. Go on shipping as you will but do not allude to it. Not even a hint. Show her how unimportant she is and that she cannot get to you. on a side note regarding her and the person she is writing the episode with....I just can't. I really just can't.
To my sisters in the trenches...
The past few dag I’ve been fighting this feeling of sadness, even like lack of enthusiasm. It’s not that I’ve given up. It’s really not. I’m writing my new fic that I’ve been working on since October and that has me really happy. I think it’s more of a sadness because of the fan base. I hate how sad the fan base is. I hate how people that have become my friends, with whom I communicate with off Tumblr and constantly, are so sad and hurt. That has me sad and hurt in turn. I think the turning point for me was when someone told me that JP blatantly ignored a fan’s question because it was of Klaroline. It was the first question. I understand writing what you want and trying to tell a story but disrespecting fans openly is not ok. I know some fans go overboard, get nasty, but the majority of this fan base is not like that. We are lively, happy, amazing people. We are bubbly and excited. We love this pairing and have been inspired by it. We’ve supported Candice and Joe for more than two years. I’m naïve even at my age. I’m older than most here but I still believe, maybe it’s because of fanon (the place where I happily am residing in), but lately all the sadness and the rejection of my fellow fans and even the new smear campaign is upsetting me so much. The last drop was something I realized today. I honestly think they are using this new we are aggressive, mean, and nasty as a way to do what they couldn’t do before, destroy us. The fact that they fail to highlight our good deeds, trends, support unless it’s when we praise something they approve of, has me getting angry. So I’m right now saying: ENOUGH. Enough being sad, enough being hurt. ENOUGH. I don’t know how to rally troops or say inspiring words like our own resident Braveheart (Maevelin) but I want to encourage all of you to stand up for ourselves and keep on fighting. The only thing I ask is: Please let’s not send hate to the guy that plays Enzo because he’s done nothing and doesn’t deserve it. Please let’s not send hate to Leah. I’m not including Carina or PT in this because they opened themselves up to a battle. Please let’s stay away from Candice and Joe’s significant others. They have nothing to do with this. Please let’s keep trending. Please let’s keep fighting. Please let’s keep reblogging. Please let’s keep each other motivated They keep telling us Klaroline was not supposed to go this far. But you know what? Because of us it has gone this far and because of us though they try, they cannot erase what it has become. A fucking powerhouse. They want to throw us duplicates (seriously, have you seen that still with Camille’s hair in the same style as Caroline’s and even the same exact color?) but we know better. The magic that we have witnessed, cannot be duplicated, replicated. We won’t go away. We won’t give up. Klaroliners Unite!
