Since you mentioned it, here’s the conversation about Bonenzo. The first half of the video covers the decision to place them together in season 7. Which was done due to the writers believing there was finally room for Bonnie to have a romantic arc with a vampire. But, this happened because Enzo and Bonnie hadn’t been paired up together. Sorry, this video is lengthy.

The second half of the video is the conversation around Enzo’s death in Season 8. The writers said they wanted Bonnie to finally be free of the burdens of Mystic Falls. I have to mention that Julie has once said Bonnie had to earn her happy ending. After fighting for everyone for nearly a decade on television. She has once said that in her eyes Bonnie’s happy ending included: getting married to Matt, and having his babies OR Bonnie never getting over Enzo and sleeping around with countless men for the rest of her life.

I'm so mad I was in the middle of answering this ask last night and my computer decided to play dumb.

Anyhoo~ I think it's both wild and unsurprising; Caroline was Julie's and quite a few other writers' self insert. Them hoes were living vicariously through her. They wanted Liz to be the Charlie Swan and Joyce Summers of the series. So her getting all this unearned and unnecessary attention makes sense.

Unfortunately yes.... I've heard some stuff going around. And honestly. I'm just done with Julie's bullshit excuses

Cause now she tried to give some bullshit excuse that Bonnie and Damon couldn't be together because Bonnie has a lot more integrity than that after Damon has done so many horrible things. But apparently Elena doesn't?

Damon literally killed her brother right in front her, without knowing that Jeremy was wearing the Gilbert ring. He just snapped his neck and went on with his day just because Katherine rejected him. Oh, and let's not forget he forced a kiss on Elena right before that.

Like, if Bonnie has too much integrity to be with Damon after everything he has done. Then why did she get with Enzo? Like one of my mutuals on tiktok had said if Bonnie is too good for Damon, than so is Elena. And that Bonnie is too good for Enzo, because he was very much on board with torturing and killing Aaron, just because Damon wanted to do it.

Julie should've just admitted she didn't want Bonnie happy at all instead of making up stupid reasons of why she couldn't be with this person, without having zero logic to them.

exactly all of this! listen from the beginning bonnie was used for every single plot they wrote themselves into a hole for

her sole purpose was to either be screwed over by another character for the drama or save all the characters when everything else had failed

literally the one (1) plot that she was given that was explicitly about her e.g. discovering she was a witch, was stolen and used for the entirety of the remainder of the show

her grandmother dies? elena/bonnie drama. she has a witch cousin who could help her discover her powers? whoops no that witch works for katherine and is brought in purely for a plot twist then disappears. bonnie’s mother is back? nope that’s just to give her a weird relationship with her stepbrother bc the writers don’t want her with anyone else except nope again they’re actually gonna kill abby and completely forget about jamie to the point they don’t even bother to write him off with an explanation as another plot twist and also for bonnie/elena drama

actually introduce her dad as a character, kill him off almost immediately for the plot

bonnie’s the anchor so she can save everyone. bonnie is jeremy’s love interest until anna comes along then whoops lets have him cheat but kill anna off anyway and have jeremy face practically zero consequences

bonnie sacrifices, bonnie dies, bonnie cries, bonnie bleeds, bonnie gets locked away, bonnie saves, bonnie gets forgotten, bonnie disappears, bonnie EXISTS but she doesn’t get to LIVE

SHE DIES TWICE AND BOTH TIMES ARE FROM OVERUSE OF MAGIC ffs

all her love interests are killed off over the course of the show and her ultimate happiness is TO GO BACK TO AFRICA WITH ENZO’S GHOST??? LIKE??? i mean come the fuck on...

like honestly look at this shit

ben? fakes interest to manipulate her, attempts to kill her, dies

jeremy? cheats, dies, ghost, alive, leaves

jamie? stepbrother, prom, leaves ??? who the fuck knows

luka? witch, dies

enzo? liked caroline first, dies, ghost, apparent forever love BUT HE’S STILL DEAD

and like her treatment isn’t even a show specific problem, the fandom is fucking disgraceful when it comes to bonnie and kat

i remember when the casting was announced and the absolute hate and viciousness that was directed towards kat bc she wasn’t white and ginger, she got hate from the minute she was associated with the show and it never stopped, you can probably still google the casting announcements and read through what she had to deal with and then to have that validated by how she was treated on the show is fucking awful

and i know that the only cast member that didn’t receive hate when they were announced was ian but there’s a whole other level of hate directed at kat than there is nina for not having blonde hair and we all know what that level of hate is about

i guarantee that if they had cast an actress that matched the description of book!bonnie then show!bonnie would’ve had completely different storylines and been treated in equal measure to elena and caroline instead of a magical get out of death free card

like we’re introduced to witches and as far as the show tells us from minute one it’s a line of very powerful poc until it comes to them revealing the most powerful witch and she happens to be esther who is white, ya’ll couldn’t sign post the racism clearer from those writers

it’s so frustrating bc the show has been gone for almost 4 years now and they’re STILL finding ways to disrespect bonnie

Is there actually?? Huh that would be hilarious, i never heard it before and dont really think of tamlin often😂 but they are two peas in a pod i guess though😅
