I try and console myself with the silver lining in Elena becoming a vampire, i.e now my shipping choices are so much easier since Alaric's dead and Elena/Matt was mostly an extension of my preference for Elena/humanity, now I can just ship Elena/Elijah without any other ships vying for my attention.
But as much as I love shipping E/E, Elena/humanity (or Elena/college or Elena/normal life, however you want to put it) was always my real OTP. All I ever wanted was for Elena to get out of this damn mess and now she can't. Hopefully she can at least get out of the damn triangle.
I hope you're right about Klaus/JM, because I really don't like it the way it stands.
I just have little to no interest in seeing Elena as a vampire (largely because I have a bad feeling the show will make it all about the Triangle instead of Elena herself). I *am* kind of interested in how is shakes up the Original family though (ironic I know considering those other worries).
Klaus may be alive but he wanted Elena alive too, though he will understand he's just not exactly going to be happy. And Elijah was willing to go on the run for 50-60 years and leave his brother dessicated for a century for Elena's sake; if that's not proof that he loves her but had no intention of killing/turning her what is? He clearly *knew* what the most prudent course of action to save his family was, but he didn't do it. Even after Klaus was supposedly dead he told Rebekah they had to run (also, I seriously want to know what that call between Elena and Elijah that Rebekah mentioned covered, I feel jipped).
Basically Rebekah just managed to piss off everyone. Team Elena and most of Team Originals are not going to be happy.
But it all needs Elijah, and I don't have high hopes for that either.
