If our love is tragedy, why are you my remedy

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Can't believe that show had me out here feaning for a psycho boy who was the hottest guy on TVD and was practically Bonnie's literal boyfriend.

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Kai: I can't sleep at night. I know right, shocker. I mean sure I may have tried to kill her (Bonnie), and her friends...like once. Okay, maybe a few times. And also lied to her face, pretended to be good to get her to trust me so that I could get out of 1994. But don't those things called "feelings", my feelings to be exact, matter too?! So what, I did one sleeping spell, big woof! Now she won't even talk to me.

Cashier: Sir, this is a Wendy's.

*Kai telling Bonnie he was spooning her in her sleep*

Look at the height difference. Hmmkay time to write another fic...

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Bonnie: You know you could have just shown us the ascendant to begin with.

Kai: Yeah but I wanted to feel your hand on my chest.

Bonnie: If you wanted me to feel you up, why didn't you just ask?

Kai: Are you asking now?!

Bonnie: So what if I am...?

Kai: Then I'd say you are more than welcome to anytime.

Damon: Umm hello, guys I'm still here!

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Kai: Hey Siri, what is Tinder?

Siri: Tinder is a dating app commonly used but not limited to relationship seeking, casual flings and "hooking up".

Kai: *installs app*

Kai: Hey Siri, search Bonnie Bennett.

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Hear me out...but I could see Noland Gerald Funk as a bootleg version of Kai Parker.

I was watching scenes of him from The Flight Attendant, he has that conceited snarkiness that pre-merge Kai had, plus the psycho-boy-face. But y'all, who would play Bonnie??

[pinkhysteria]

BONNIE & KAI ↳ 6x17

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Kai wanted to be alone with Bonnie so bad. He really said, we don't need a third wheel.

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

*MFG goes hiking*

Damon: Guys I think we're lost.

Caroline: Let me see *snatches map* Wrong, we came from the...east?

Bonnie: That can't be right, check again.

Damon: *snatches map back* No dummy we came from the west, not east.

Kai: See this is what happens when you let idiots navigate.

Damon: You think you can do better genius?!

Kai: Of course I can *snatches map*...Bonnie?!

Bonnie: Umm what do you want me to do??

Kai: Its obvious you are the smartest person here, with me coming in 2nd, and naturally, Damon last.

Damon: You little sh-

Stefan: Alright everybody stay calm, nobody panick.

Elena: We're all gonna die!

Caroline: We could get eaten by bears!

Damon: Oh please there aren't any bears in these woods.

*branch snaps in the distance*

Damon: What the hell was that??!

Kai: Your ego taking a beating.

Stefan: Everyone check your cell phones to see if you have a signal.

Damon: Nope.

Bonnie: No signal.

Caroline: I've got nothing.

Stefan: Me neither.

Kai: Bold of you to assume I even brought a phone.

Elena: *peeking at Damon's phone* Who is Donna??

Damon: Alright everybody confess a secret on the count of 3. Okay 1, 2, 3, go!....

*collective yelling*

Damon: I'm in love with my best friend!

Caroline: I'm not a real blonde!

Elena: I ate the last bag of hot cheetos!

Kai: I kissed Bonnie!

Bonnie: You said you wouldn't tell anybody!

Stefan: Elena's a b**h!

Damon: AH HA- I knew it!!!...

Stefan: We should split up to cover more ground.

Elena: *eagerly agrees* Yeah that sounds like a great idea.

Damon: That sounds like a terrible idea.

Kai: I'll go with Bonnie.

Damon: No, I'm going with Bonnie! Bon Bon?!

Bonnie: Ummmmm....*feeling intensely pressured*.....I pick Matt!

Caroline: Wait...where is Matt??!

*everybody looking around baffled*

Damon: Probably fell into a ditch somewhere.

Stefan: Okay Caroline & I will head this way. Damon, Bonnie, & Kai you go that way.

Damon: Fair enough.

Elena: Hey what about me?!

Stefan: Okay Kai you go with Elena.

Elena: Thank you.

Kai: I object!

Damon: This isn't a court room you idiot!

Bonnie: Shoosh shoosh *to Damon* Let him finish.

Stefan: Its been decided, Elena goes with Kai.

Kai: Hmmkay, does anyone have a crowbar?

*Bag of chips rumbling*

Caroline: She has food!

Elena: *failed to quietly chew*

Damon: You said there weren't anymore chips left.

Elena: *mouth is full* When did I say that??

Bonnie: Alright let's be rational about this...

Caroline: Omg this isn't fair, I only had one grape this morning.

Damon: As your sire, I command you to share the chips!....except Kai, don't share with Kai.

Kai: You dick.

Caroline: I'm so hungry!

Bonnie: Me too.

Elena: *proceeds to stuff the whole bag in mouth*

*collective sighing & yelling*

Bonnie: That was our last meal!

Caroline: NOOOO, its spilling everywhere!

Damon: You lied about loving me!

Kai: Aww all over the ground!

Stefan: See this is why we broke up!...

Caroline: Great, now that we're all going to starve to death-

Damon: Let's play Simon says. Okay Simon says, Kai is a douche-bag.

Kai: The only thing douchey is your purse.

Damon: Excuse me, it's called a male fanny pack! And I got it discounted at Sears.

Bonnie: Stop it, the both of you.

Kai: What's that Bonnie?? You want me to punch Damon in the face?!

Damon: The only thing that needs punching is your 40 year old virginity card *holds imaginary phone up to ear* Hello, the 90s called, they want their ugly plaid shirt & frumpy dad shoes back.

Kai: Hey, dad shoes are in style!

Stefan: People, can we please focus.

Elena: Stop fighting over me!!!

*everybody breaks to stare at Elena*

Kai: ....Okay, onto something more relevant.

Stefan: Kai, you have officially earned my respect.

Kai: Nobody asked you Steven...Now back to business *pulls out the real map*

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Kai: So is this like a date??

Bonnie: Kai, this is a local homeless shelter.

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Bonnie: (sends magic away) I guess we're stuck here, forever.

Kai:

My man's was really thinking about shooting his shot.

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Caroline: What do you look for in a guy?

Bonnie: Someone caring, empathetic, a good listener, & loves children.

Kai: *taking notes*

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Kai: I've decided to turn over a new leaf by being a better person.

Damon: So you'll undo the sleeping spell??!

Kai: Of course not. I said better, not stupid.

[hysteriaww]

Favorite bonkai moment?

Wow it's been a while since I got one of these haha! MM I'd say my answer to this changes pretty often but rn I think it's the 6x05 scene when Bonnie challenges Kai to siphon her in the woods in front of Damon *just* to prove Kai doesn't actually know the spell to get them out of 1994. I enjoyed how Bonkai were so wrapped up in their petty power struggle that Damon ended up feeling like a third wheel with nothing to do there xD It showed that Bonnie and Kai were on a similar mental wavelength, somehow able to sense what the other was thinking/hiding, whereas Damon was left feeling lost and out of touch with their battle of wits. Also, I appreciated Bonnie being confident enough in her own intuition and skills as a witch to take a giant risk with Kai and be proven right!

That being said, this scene was also the first time Bonnie ever murdered another character in canon, and I wish the show had.. emphasized that more?? She remorselessly kills Kai with no idea that he'll respawn and yes, Kai deserved it, but how did neither Damon nor Bonnie discuss the fact that Kai was her first kill ever?? That's huge! Ofc tvd had lost a lot of their care for continuity by that point so they prob didn't even realize Bonnie had never killed anyone before Kai when they wrote that scene but STILL.

But yea, as of now, that's currently my fav Bonkai scene! It was also one of the first times their sexual tension was so absurdly LOUD to me and in-your-face that I had to pause the scene and wonder if it was intentional or not.. bc I thought "SURELY it can't be ambiguous subtext anymore if it's THAT overt, right??" As a fan of many shows, have I been guilty of reading too much into innocent scenes to find underlying meaning that isn't there or wasn't intended by the creators? Eh, sure. But with scenes like THIS, there's no way the vibe wasn't there!!! You'd have to be willfully blind not to see it!

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

The heavy breathing, the silence. Don't tell me they didn't want each other.

[hysteriaww]

@upper-echelon-h3arts Right?? the utter FRUSTRATION (...both for the fans & for the characters with all that pent up tension, i mean PHEW 😮‍💨)

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Honestly bc the context of this scene is so funny, him trying to trick Bonnie meanwhile she knows he's lying about not knowing the spell...but I'm sitting here like, Ok how long have you two been f*kn?!

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

Kol: C'mon mate, she (Bonnie) doesn't even like you.

Kai: And you would know that how?

Kol: For starters, psycho isn't her type. NOW I on the other hand-

Kai: Are a homicidal maniac. Yeah, let me know how that works out for you.

[so-long-soldier28]

I love kai but FUCK HIM for killing his sister and making us all watch ALARIC fall in love with CAROLINE

[upper-echelon-h3arts]

What us Bonnie fans have been saying since day one
