The Tale of a Hybrid and a Vampire by @idiot--wind (sorry about not making a banner-not my forte)
Summary: A Klaroline-centric rewrite of the last two episodes of the Originals. Rated M, just to be safe.
I went back and forth with what fics I was going to recommend because there are just so many that are amazing. Recently, in my hiatus I’ve been daydreaming about that ‘what if’ that haunts us all as Klaroline shippers. What if Klaus didn’t die? We all want to know how it would have played out and how Caroline and Klaus would have ended up.
Enter The Tale of a Hybrid and a Vampire. Idiot-wind takes the final two episodes and changes them in a way that A) Keeps Klaus from dying and B) makes sense. She pulls the solution for The Vampire Diaries lore and cannon that honestly fixes the show runners mistake.
The changes at first are subtle. The four chapters follow the last two episodes of the The Originals pretty well and as you continue reading, the changes become more obvious until we are left with the ending.
AND THAT ENDING.
It’s open ended and I love me some open ended stories. I adore how she leave it in a way that could have allowed for another season of the The Originals to happen or even a better version of Legacies. It is just so good.
It is only four chapters but the chapters are long. It is a really good fic to read on a cold day, curled up in the morning with a cup of coffee. It will leave you with a sense of peace (at least it did me) when you finish it and let a small smile linger on your lips for the remaining of the day.
I also suggest that if you’re watching The Originals to turn the show off at the last two episodes and read this fic instead.
Because it is better.
Side Note: I now have fond daydreams of Elijah and Kai Parker fighting epic battles. Why you ask? I can’t tell you. You will have to read the story to find out.
Thank you @klaroline-event for hosting this event!!!!
Prompt! 3x14 au ish. Caroline gets wasted at the ball and they bond over having being tortured by their fathers
Love this! If only it had happened… For Klaroline Rewind
Drunk in Love
9 February 2024, New Orleans LA
“Happy 5th Anniversary!” They toasted, clinking champagne glasses around the expansive dining table in the courtyard of the compound.
“I still can’t believe Mr ‘I’m Never Getting Married’ actually did it,” Rebekah teased, winking at her husband Enzo.
“I still can’t believe she said yes,” Kol joked, earning a dirty look from his older brother.
“She is the cat’s mother, Kol,” Elijah corrected as per usual.
“You know what I can’t believe?” The brunette by his side asked. “That we’re all sitting around the same table, it seems like only yesterday you were trying to kill me, Klaus.”
“If it weren’t for Elijah, I probably would have by now, Katherine.”
“You know what I can believe?” Bonnie murmured, putting her glass down and regarding them, including her husband, seriously. “This topic of conversation at the dinner table.”
“Well, Klaus is just lucky that I agreed to marry him,” Caroline shared, “it was touch-and-go there for a bit.”
“Oh please,” he drawled. “You fell in love with me the night of the Mikaelson ball.”
“No, I merely realised just what a lightweight you were in the drinking department.”
“Says the girl who thought she was imagining things and insisted on getting married on that particular date, just saying.”
9 February 2012 - Mystic Falls VA
“Woah, either I’ve had too many champagnes or there is an actual horse over there,” Caroline said, opening and closing her eyes a few times to double-check.
It seemed as if the Mikaelson mansion, in all of its grandeur, had the whole town within its walls. The sound of clinking glasses and lively chatter could still be heard from outside in the front garden.
Caroline needed a break from boring holes into Rebekah Mikaelson with her eyes and watching the constant merry-go-round of Elena Gilbert and which of the Salvatore brothers she would eventually pick.
“Of all creatures here tonight, why in the world would it be so unusual to see a horse?”
“I know you come from the horse and buggy era but these days a car is your best and fastest bet to get places.”
“How economical and entirely unromantic of you, love,” he drawled, drinking her in as she took a seat on the white garden furniture next to him, noticing a bottle of champagne and two accompanying glasses on the table. It was as if he was expecting her.
“You are not pulling that whole romantic crap on me, Mikaelson,” before he could interject she continued. “Just because I wore the dress you got me doesn’t mean you’re romantic, it just means I had no time to shop.”
“I believe we covered this already during our waltz but the reason behind wearing the bracelet still remains a mystery.”
“I needed something to match the gown, you know the one I had to wear because there was no time…”
“To shop, yeah I get it,” he interrupted and by his tone, she could tell he didn’t believe her. Truth be told, she didn’t even believe herself. “It must be exhausting.”
“What must be exhausting?”
“Always putting up a front,” he sighed. “It is alright just to say you like it, I won’t propose to you or anything.”
“Well, with you who knows?”
“In all my time roaming this earth I’ve never been married and have no desire to start now, sweetheart.”
“Someone break your heart?” Caroline had no intention of ever getting into a deep and meaningful with the evil hybrid that terrorised her friends and basically scared her boyfriend away but here she was doing just that.
He paused momentarily. It was an excruciatingly long wait as he popped the cork and poured the golden liquid into the champagne flutes. Caroline didn’t think she could care more about what he was going to say next. She was fairly certain she needed to analyse that but she’d do that later in the privacy of her bedroom.
“I’m going to need more of this if we’re going to continue down this route,” he murmured, lifting the glass to those sinful, crimson lips and taking a long sip. Caroline wasn’t sure what she’d gotten herself into and decided to blame the alcohol. She took a big gulp herself. What were a few more glasses anyway? “It wasn’t a woman per se.”
“Oh, I shouldn’t have assumed,” she babbled, not expecting that.
“I’m not gay, love,” he smirked, those dimples she knew all too well making an appearance. “I just wanted to clear that up because you seemed a little upset at the prospect.”
“Enough with the ego, Mikaelson,” she shot back. “So?”
“It was my father,” he shared. “He was such a tyrant, took every opportunity to berate me and my siblings and bully my mother. I could never imagine getting married because of what I had witnessed. It just stuck with me I suppose.”
“It was safer not to,” Caroline offered as he nodded in agreement. “I never understood why my parents got married in the first place, they were so different. And I honestly felt like I was more of a burden to my father, he missed everything that was important to me. I was the lead in the school play and he apparently had a work emergency and couldn’t make it, I’ll never forget how painful it was to see that empty seat next to my mother in the audience.”
“Well, my father killed my favourite horse, severed its neck.”
“Wow. Are you really trying to make this an emotional scar off? Because even though no animals were harmed in my family my father was still an ass.”
“I was merely stating a fact,” he argued. “But just so you know, love, I would have never missed your performance.”
“I was so good too.”
“I’m sure you were,” he concurred. “My father never thought I was good enough, I never understood it until I found out my true paternity.”
“He was missing out,” she uttered. “Now who’s the most powerful creature on earth?”
“Oh, so you’re admitting I am, huh?” Caroline had no intention of stroking that overbearing ego but again decided to blame it on the champagne.
“I’m going through a mourning period and you are plying me with alcohol,” she insisted. “I’ll never forget the look in my father’s eyes when he realised I was a vampire.”
“One of the strongest vampires I’ve ever known, and there have been many,” he grinned. “He was the one missing out on seeing just what a force of nature you are. But I know you loved him and I truly am sorry to hear about his passing, Caroline,” he reiterated.
“I think we need more alcohol,” she motioned towards the bottle, thinking just how wonderful Klaus ‘the terrible’ Mikaelson could be and it frightened the hell out of her.
“Indeed we do, love.”
A/N The term an ‘emotional scar-off’ came from my fave Dynasty couple Falliam, which seemed fitting for Klaroline and this drabble.
KLAROLINE REWIND - Coming Soon!
Have you been missing all of the Klaroline goodies on your dash?
Do you want more, especially if we get to see the happily ever after we all deserve?

As we approach the anniversary of that Originals finale (that granted most of us would like to forget) the team wanted to give the fandom an opportunity to rewind time and make some good memories. We’d like to celebrate Klaroline and what could have been; past, present, and future.
On August 1st and 2nd, give us all your drabbles, gifs, graphics, videos, aesthetics, headcanons, rants and anything else about our favorite couple during the series and beyond.
Just remember to tag your works #klarolinerewind so we can share them with everyone!
