Elena/Mikaelson ships are weird by default but sure-

Esther/Elena

Frankly more witches should've been weird about the dopplegangers (a large part of why there should've been more doppleganger lines) but imagine sentencing an entire bloodline to death to make your children immortal and then using that same blood to try to kill them again and again. I think Esther should've kidnapped Elena when she tried to kill her kids a second time and kept her starved and chained up and needy and used her as leverage while knowing Elena would never escape.

Mikael/Elena

I don't think Mikael ever planned to kill the doppleganger girl I think he wanted to take her away and prepare her to kill Klaus. And I think he would've been Weird about it

Freya/Elena

I think Freya would mostly be weird about her because the rest of the family is weird about her and she's just trying to fit in. But also having magic blood to use in your spells is incredibly sexy. I think Elena would've fallen for her the same way Keelin did.

Finn/Elena

Idk maybe Esther would've had better luck getting Elena on the Family Mass Murder train if she'd taken advantage of her hot son to seduce her. He probably would've felt bad about cheating on Sage but I think they'd all be okay in the end.

Elijah/Elena

He's collecting those girls like Pokemon. He's probably encouraging her to seek "human connection" so she can get pregnant and continue the bloodline so he can have another one in a few centuries.

Klaus/Elena

AU where the ritual created a soulbond between them and it was supposed to make Klaus depressed forever because his Mate is dead but Elena lives and Klaus kills his hybrids because he gets jealous about them having Elena's blood in them forever.

Kol/Elena

Kol makes a bet with Rebekah that he can seduce the doppleganger faster than Elijah and it actually works and he's pretty sure the only reason Klaus hasn't daggered him for stealing his doppleganer's attention is because Elena threatened to throw herself of Wickery Bridge if he did that.

Rebekah/Elena
