❰ ah... this one is harder for damon to figure out how to navigate, given his extreme distaste for lakshmi and his lack of fucks given for his own brood. he feels... somewhat empty, when he thinks about it, like there are beth- and sirius-shaped holes in him, but otherwise he doesn't really care. it's not as though he felt all that whole to begin with, he can't miss what he's never had.
but elena... elena cares. elena cares a whole hell of a lot. damon is quiet for a moment as he considers, mulling the idea around in his head.
You know, I feel closer to Sam than to most of my brood. I chose him, he's mine. No one forced him on me, like they forced the brood.
and that means a hell of a lot more to damon than his connection to misato, who chose lakshmi, or to kavinsky, who he finds annoying at best.
You'll have him up there. You'll have Caroline. You'll have me. And they're staying down here, but they're not gone.
