Vervain ā€” how can you best explain what it must taste/smell like to a vampire and/or human

Anyone else curious what vervain must smell or taste like to a human? (Iā€™ve got some ideas for what itā€™s like for a vampire obviously, but what about humans. Is it like a nice tea-like herb?)

Does Bonnie surpass Qetsiyah by the end of series

In the span of around a few days Bonnie:

1.Regained her magic after years and was able to be siphoned by the twins and protect themselves from a burning house

  1. Lifted the barrier around the Armoury

  2. Created a psychic dimension

  3. Psychically contended with Cade long enough for Stefan to kill him

  4. Was able to put a barrier around the church to help her direct hell fire 8 miles towards her and then redirect into Hell destroying a 4000yr dimension. Hellfire for context was established as being able to kill anything and destroy the world since enough mystical energy can kill any being

  5. Co created a prison world with Lizzie and Josie as the power source for the spell and the skill for the spell

  6. Overpowered the spelling spell cast by Kai who had surpasses the whole Gemini coven

Qetsiyah in a few days if not a days span

  1. Created the immortality elixir

  2. Created a cure to immortality

  3. Created the Otherside

  4. Made Amara the anchor to the other side and dessicated her

  5. Dessicated Silas and somehow brought him to a tomb in Nova Scotia and sealed him there

  6. Technically Created the Doppleganger line however this isn't a direct feat but more a showcase of the power of her immortality spell

Thus how do you compare this two witches and Technically witch psychic hybrid as Bonnie. I personally am of the opinion that Bonnie is on par with Qetsiyah in regards to raw power and nearing skills and arguably due to her psychic abilities gives her the edge. Would love to hear what everyone thinks.

Does anybody have a love-hate relationship with the character Tyler?

OK, I think we can all agree that season one Tyler was horrible and treated everyone like garbage. However, do you feel that Caroline had a lot to do with his growth as a person? It does not negate his personality prior to season one and season one as the town a-hole, but he grew in the second and third seasons in my opinion.

However, he would revert to his prior personality at times, and I wish he wasnā€™t thrown to the side after his break up with Caroline and when Liv died. I feel like he had more to contribute to the story had they explored werewolves a little bit more, instead of silly hybrids like the Heretics, had the writers been more competent with his character, even more so than Enzo in my opinion (Enzo was just a love interest the last season anyway despite how cute Bonenzo was). I wish he wasnā€™t killed off so callously by Damon. He couldā€™ve had potential in season eight even if they did kill him off eventually.

Damon vs Kol in 3x19: plot armor at its finest

At Mary Porterā€™s house, Kol beats Damon with a baseball bat to get back at him and claims that now theyā€™re even. Wdym weā€™re even? Damon and the gang just murdered your brother in what was an active attempt at murdering all of your siblings, including you! Elena may be off limits because Klaus needs her blood, but why spare Damon? Kol couldā€™ve just killed Damon, not like Elena could stop him.

Considering who Kol is, there was no logic behind sparing Damon. Kol has never been shy about eliminating any possible threat. In the same scene he just killed Mary Porter, who had nothing to do with all of this, just so they wouldnā€™t know who sired them and in season 4 he tried to kill anyone involved with the search for the cure.

Damon only survived this altercation by virtue of being the main character.

Does rewatching depress anyone else?

In the beginning, the show set up a wonderful foundation that gave you the idea that there was still so much intriguing unknown that they barely scratched the surface on yet but over time, all the storylines and dynamics were never actually used to their full potential.

Looking back, it always depressed me at all the missed opportunities and wasted potential in the end.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Why do people hate Matt Donovan?

Iā€™m watching the vampire diaries for the first time with my wife and we are halfway through season seven.

I love the show, the characters, the story, and everything. One thing that I am confused about is why people hate Matt so much. Heā€™s definitely not my favorite character, but I also donā€™t understand the hate he gets.

If you were a resident of mystic falls, when would you get suspicious?

So let's say you were a resident and f mystic falls, you heard about two people driving in a car and then was attacked by wild animal.

Then you hear Vicki Donovan was attacked by wild animal.

Then you hear of two campers were attacked by wild animal.

Then the local high school teacher was attacked by a wild animal

Then a group of druggies were attack by drug deal gone bad

Obviously no one would think it's vampires but what would you think something is going on? At what point would you consider moving away or would you stay in mystic falls and just carry "bear/wolf spray when walking around at night.

ive been thinking about this for a while but, for how many TEENAGE girls have died in season 1 alone the reaction the town had to this just does not make sense, an insane ammount of girls end up getting killed and the town isnā€™t even on a curfew??? especially at the masquerade ball where Katherine kills 2 teenage girls i think? like wtf??? nobody care??

Katherine traveler witch

Is it just me who wanted to see the potential Kathrtine had of being not only a traveler witch but a traveler witch with unlimited amounts of doppelganger blood mixed with her traveler blood and maybe seeing how powerful and different travelers truly are.

Like while I hate the travelers arc with markos and the whole anti magic border I only mean regarding Katherine's traveler heritage and how we were robbed heck they didn't even let Katherine do a difficult spell the only spell she did was the most basic her kind ate know for body jumping.

And I mean we've seen vampire Kathrine, human Katherine (present and past) and it wouldn't been so nice to see traveler witch Katherine .

Would you have wanted to see her potential if she wasn't killed off and the body jumping storyline didn't happen?

Do you think Tomā€™s or Stefanā€™s blood could break the hybrid curse?

Hi everyone! Iā€™m a new fan of The Vampire Diaries and have some questions about Klausā€™ curse.

From what I understand, Esther used the blood of the doppelgƤnger, Tatia, to bind Klausā€™ werewolf side. This made sense since Klaus needed the blood of a new doppelgƤnger, Elena, to break the curse after his plan with Katherine failed.

But hereā€™s my confusion: If Tatia's blood was so crucial for binding the curse, why was Katherineā€™s blood considered a viable option for breaking it? And why did Elena, who is from the same bloodline as Katherine, work to break the curse as well? Does it have to be direct descendants of Tatia, or is it just because they are doppelgƤngers? The show never really clarifies this.

In Season 5, we meet Tom, who looks like Stefan but isn't a Salvatore descendant. This suggests that doppelgƤngers can appear even if there is no direct lineage. Does this mean that doppelgƤngers can be born randomly, not just through direct ancestry? This is also similar to the case of Amara and Silas, the original doppelgƤngers, who had no descendants, yet new doppelgƤngers kept emerging.

Also, if doppelgƤnger blood is so important in magic, why couldnā€™t vampire Katherine be used in Klausā€™ ritual, since she is still a doppelgƤnger, even though sheā€™s a vampire? The Travelers, for example, needed both Elenaā€™s and Stefanā€™s blood, and it worked despite them being vampires.

So, if the key factor for breaking the curse is simply being a doppelgƤnger, could Klaus have used any doppelgƤngerā€™s blood to break the curse? Could another human doppelgƤnger, like Stefan (when he was human), or Tom, have worked instead of Amara's doppelgƤnger?

If any of these questions have already been explained in The Originals or Legacies, I apologize for asking such silly questions, as I havenā€™t watched those shows yet!

Do you guys think a prequel of the show would be good? I always thought that would be really cool to see Elena's parents and her dads research/studies and then the Salavtore brothers coming to mystic falls, etc

Iā€™m so stuck I think itā€™s time to call itā€¦

I adore this show so much, it feels like part of my existence. I know many of us feel this way. But on my current rewatch (the first in a few years) I dragged my way through season 5 and just finished the S5 finale.

I so badly want to continue on and finish the remaining three seasons but I think I have to throw in the towel. The writing is sloppy, dialogue is awful, and the characters have no depth.

I might instead go back to the beginning, watch the first three incredible seasons, and pretend it ended there.

Anyone else get stuck in this rut?
