The Vampire Diaries 2x22 'As I Lay Dying' EXTRA Early Access/Watchalong

The amount of sacrifices that Stefan makes is often thrown to the wind by fans of the show. He is so in love with Elena and still chose to do whatever Klaus wants because he needs to save his brother’s life. The same brother that has made every mistake possible. To give up control of your life, your morale, and everything you have done to have restraint of the non human part of you, to save your brother’s life shows the character of Stefan.

I can feel it in my bones. They are about to do my girl Bonnie so wrong OMG. I’m already feeling it :/ Stefan really loves his brother despite everything. He loves Damon so much that he sent his girlfriend to be by his side because he wants Damon to have her company even while knowing his brother loves her. Sacrificing his “soul” and morale as well as his love for Elena, to save his brothers life is so endearing. Obviously I don’t think any of us wanted Damon to die but I feel as though Damon gets more blame than Elena. Elena is just as guilty for purposely having no boundaries with Damon as Damon is for having feelings for his brothers girlfriend. It’s great to see that Damon will survive but I know it’s going to be a wild ride for all my Stefan girls next season as well as those who love Bonnie and Jeremy. After seeing Anna and V back…I just know the writers are gonna play around with Bonnie’s character :(

I really don't understand how people can hate Stefan when he does things like this. And you know, no matter how much he loves Elena it doesn't even come close to the love he has for Damon IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING. That being said, Elena being by Damon's side was so sweet. "It's okay to love them both. I did." - Katherine Pierce.

Agreed. He is becoming the monster he loathes and worked so hard to control. It’s one of the biggest sacrifices he makes. I think ppl forget this and very quickly start treating it as just “Stefan went off the rails”.

Aleks

Oh Jeremy! Always on Bing! with the power of MiFi from AT&T ™️

TVD REEL TIME🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

One thing you can say is that TVD has some of the best season finales ever.

Give peas a chance

I think a lot of people in fandom overlook stefen’s sacrifice. He literally gave up everything, something he worked all these years to get control over, gqve up that control to save his brother. It’s really big.

Jane Thomas

Yea same. Whether it’s tvd or originals, Family bonds is the one that stands out to me

Jane Thomas

Agreed :) That werewolf bite was the best thing that happened to Damon.

Aleks

Stefan would do anything for his brother and this episode is only one of the proofs. Honestly, Stefan deserves the world. Couldn't care less about Delena though 😂

VD

i actually think its so funny how nonchalantly conservative this show is like gone with the wind playing in the town square, stefan killing a village of migrants and damon fighting for the south... need to talk to julie plec

chanel 616

So excited for season 3!!

Salma

hypochondriac but make it supernatural

Meera

didn’t think we could get crazier with jeremy’s unhinged bing searches but I think “back from the dead” takes it😭 he gives me the vibes that whenever he has a slight cough he goes down a webmd spiral

Syd

SEASON 3 HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!!!

Rez

Sacrificed himself, his love and his relationship to save him. Damon is one lucky guy

Aleks

im so excited for 3x03 👸👸👸

valentina

I love the lore of the show, and how everything has a balance. Of course the only thing to cure a VAMP of a WERE bite is the blood of the hybrid. Anyway next season is my absolute fav cant wait!!!

bateman bookworm

i love them sm

valentina

cant waittttt for s3 the best season imo

valentina

I think they meant his blood being able to heal wolf bites is OP. But just the hybrid abilities are incredible imo.

Bryce you look very tired, please take care...☺️

Anastasia Gulizia

nothing platonic about them and no one can change my mind

j-l

IM SO EXCITED FOR S3!! i think it might be my absolute favorite

j-l

damon and stefans relationship has grown so much over these 2 seasons. its so nice to see but it also hurts, stefan basically sacrificed himself to save damon :(

j-l

soooo excited for season 3!!! y’all aren’t ready 😭

Muna

i love that delena scene, really fully shows us how much elena has grown to care for damon. ive never looked at that as their first kiss, just elena giving him a sweet goodbye

j-l

Not Elijah getting screwed over again lmao

Meera

Rippaaaahhhh. Cant wait for season 3🥳

Megan

I also enjoyed the iconic Katherine line "It's okay love them both, I did." I also enjoyed how happy Zuff and Rob are when they watched the delena kiss. I'm relived that damon is saved from his fate, and its the one time that I respect Katherine for giving damon the cure. my heart shattered when damon said he deserved to die, but I'm glad Elena was there to tell him he was wrong.

Amber Augustine

Loved this whole episode and that ending.. not 1 but 2!! Jeremy did say that he felt different.

Shirlene Wright

Finally ordered my very own Damon tshirt!!! Im joining the club!!!!!!

Mariel

Yes I love Delena but this show for me will always be about the Salvatore brothers and their bond. ❤️ this episode we can clearly see how much Damon means to Stefan and that warms my heart.

Sampu

cant wait for ripper stefannnn , zuff is rlly gonna see that stefan can indeed be that guy😭

jaselle

season 3 is definitely my favorite , im ready! 😭

Isaiah

Elena kissing damon right before he dies, was one of the sweetest things anyone has ever done for damon. My delena heart melted when this kiss happened. It was also so sweet when Elena said she likes him now just the way he is, it's such a beautiful line that damon needed to hear. damon was depraved of love for so long but Elena assured him he was appreciated for the way he is and he doesn't need to change. It shows how much compassion and empathy Elena has for others when they are suffering.

Amber Augustine

It's so nice to see Anna back in the show. Missed her!

Murphy

I love how Alaric comes running every time Damon is in danger, their bromance is so heartwarming. "An event!" "We didn't see them setting up for this though." You guys crack me up lmao. Our first Klaus "Rippaaaa" reference. I'm so psyched for s3, it's the best.

Cristy

Guys, are you ready to start the best TVD season ever? I'll be waiting for you on Sunday!

Marina

Well you cant say Stefan doesn't love his brother.. It's sad that he had to sacrifice everything buuut i do like the thought of a Klaus and Stefan "friendship" maybe? The last moment with Damon and Elena was actually a pretty lovely moment! It is one of my favourite moments with them and yes there is not a lot of them haha In my opinion of course!

Caroline

Saaaame 🤣

Camilla Rasmussen

Klefan stans (both platonic and not) stand up! 🤭
