[aoshi]

I like TO. Its mature and has substantial plot of vampire,werewolves. Last episode was Kick-A$$. I can't wait for season finale.

I like how this relationship has evolved over the seasons without it being the cliche, you're my baby mama so I have to fall in love with you. They more so 'tolerate' each other but have come to a consensus when it comes to the parenting of their child. It's a nice dynamic.

I thought the nursery scene was so sweet! I loved that. I really hope they let Klaus grow up as the show continues. I know it's his "thing" to be volatile and petulant, but 1000 years is long enough. He should know better by now, and it's getting old. The thing with the baby and the nursery, and the way he is with Cami and Caroline, I like that side of him. But I'm really tired of the "you were mean to me so I'm going to kill you" thing.

I'm excited about the continuity with TVD, it's about time. I wonder how much what happens in Mystic Falls will affect the Originals ultimately. I guess it all depends on what's really going to happen in TVD lol.

I actually kind of like the thought of Klaus going out to murder some people who crossed him and making it back in time to tuck his baby daughter into bed. lol

[missmystic]

lol yikes, creepy haha. But don't get me wrong, I don't mind if Klaus keeps killing people. I just want him to stop killing people for stupid reasons. And to stop getting pissed at his family members for stupid reasons.

Speaking of the family dynamics, it's kind of a bit weird. Namely Elijah's character. I feel as if his purpose has been changed since the start of the season. First he came back in time to stop Klaus/witches from killing the baby/Hayley because he felt that this baby would be what Klaus needed for his redemption.

He's always been about his brother and family. But now somewhere down the line Elijah has been putting Hayley on a higher pedestal above his family. Like saving Jackson for Hayley's sake, and thus letting Bekah and Klaus fall further into danger when all that he needed to save was Hayley/the baby.

And Elijah seems to be smothering Hayley and shutting out Klaus and not giving Hayley and Klaus a chance to reconcile and get on good terms with each other for the baby's sake.

I don't see why Elijah would act on any feelings for Hayley, when she's pregnant with Klaus' baby in the first place and in doing so would likely cause rifts in the family anyways.

Klaus/Hayley had that nice scene in the nursery and the next seen is her kissing Elijah. What sense does that make? This feels like it will only cause more problems in the long run.

Hmmm, I don't know. I actually like the Elijah/Haley romance. There is a lot of sweetness to it that is very different from most couple in the TVD universe. I don't think Elijah has changed his mind about the baby and Klaus, I just think his feelings have evolved. He's gotten to know Haley, and he's falling in love with her. I agree that it's complicated, with her being pregnant with his brother's baby and all lol. But I don't really think there is anything between Klaus and Haley besides the shared interest of the baby. They have never cared about each other at all really, from what I can see. Just had a one night stand that left them a little surprise lol. For me it doesn't feel right for them to be a couple.

I see what you mean, and I don't really have anything against the Hayley/Elijah romance in general since when it comes to Originals I pretty much just go with the flow and take whatever is thrown at me. And I do like the dynamic.

It's more so the complicated situation that it's in, as you mentioned with the whole Klaus and the baby. It just doesn't seem in the best interest to cross that line now, after getting back on page and in good favor with Klaus.

I don't believe that they should have to live in fear of Klaus and yes I agree that Hayley and Klaus do not have to necessarily be a couple. Though not that I'd mind if the show ever did went that way since I've liked Klaus' dynamics with Cami, Hayley, and Klaus. It'd be a bit interesting with their werewolf lineage and all.

But I'm getting off track lol. I still feel as if Elijah has made a change somewhere, like when he slammed Klaus against the wall and told him that he wouldn't hold back on going after what he wanted or something along those lines.

It's just a really sharp change in his ideals. Earlier in the season Elijah seemed to have this obsession nature with Klaus, as Klaus had with Bekah. Elijah was obsessed with his brother's redemption and he always chose Klaus/family over anything.

Girls that Elijah has loved, Katherine and Celeste have both been ripped away from him because of Klaus, and in season 4 when Elijah/Katherine were dating, Elijah pleaded with Klaus to give Katherine her freedom but he refused. Despite this, Elijah has still stuck to Klaus and has been all about him/family.

I more so just want to know how Elijah thinks this is going to end? Won't Klaus just do the same as he has the other girls he has loved? Once the baby is born and starts seeing Elijah as that more father figure, Klaus is certainly not going to take that lightly.

As stated earlier, I don't think that Elijah/Hayley can't be together, but at the same time there has to be some line drawn before everything becomes one huge mess.

[missmystic]

Maybe they can be more like a wolf pack ... you know, like all the men are the dads and uncles and whatever, and all the women are moms and aunts lol. I don't know, I'm not sure how its going to work, but I hope it does. And I hope they don't do some weird thing like having the baby get sucked into some magic portal that ages her quickly, like they did on Angel ... that was such a horrible plot. I want to see Klaus changing dirty diapers!! lol

[Deleted]

Yeah I wonder how they will go about the whole baby thing. We did get to see a little baby in Klaus' vision thing, but I wonder if they do plan to keep the baby, a baby.

Either Klaus, Hayley, or Elijah would always have to stay back with the baby at all times and these are all characters who are always moving, vital parts in their factions. I just can't see one of them having to sit out for baby duty lol

[missmystic]

Yeah I agree, it's hard to picture lol. Maybe they take the baby with them everywhere? Can't you just picture Klaus and Elijah walking a stroller down the street, casually threatening anyone they pass by? hahaha

[Deleted]

The baby is also supposed to be a witch so what if the baby does all these spells and whatnot lol

This is just a very interesting concept, I can't wait to see how they implement it. I wouldn't mind if they did some magic or whatever that ages the baby as long as they keep the baby still of young age. It'd be cute to see like a 5-10 year old doing spells and stuff!

[missmystic]

Yeah that could be fun. Or even like a 2 or 3 year old. I don't think I would like anything older than 10. I definitely don't want some snotty teenager who hates her parents kind of situation, that will bug me. But it would be so cute to see Klaus bouncing a little 3 year old girl on his knee while she magically makes things float around the room! OH! what if she can turn at will like Klaus and she turns into a little wolf cub running around??? HAHAHA I want that to happen!! CUTENESS

[Deleted]

Oh yeah the baby will also be part Wolf/hybrid. lol

Yeah we may need that time jump as I don't see much a baby of months old can do with its mythology line. Plus the witches also want to kill the baby as well so not sure if I see them just taking the baby from its crib and stuff. Well they could always fail in their plot I guess lol.

[missmystic]

They could fail, but something tells me something bad is going to happen. I don't think they will kill the baby ... that just seems way too horrible, even for the TVD universe. But I won't be surprised if they do SOMETHING to her. The previews for the finale look really bloody ... and Klaus looks really upset.
