🌙 the emotional headcanon meme 🥀

Canonically we see two variations of reactions from her, both line up perfectly with her BPD.

1- She shuts down tries to pretend like it doesnt mean anything but it does. We see this when Elijah walks away from her and says good bye. She doesn't say much if anything at all just sort of shuts down for the moment. This is the rarer of the two given her petulant sub type shes more prone to number two-

2- Lashing out emotionally/aggressively. We see plenty of examples of this one. When Stefan says he hates her and she stabs him being one of the very first that comes to mind. When Damon accuses her lying and she snaps back with "Did it ever occur to you that you dont know who I am?"

This can also look like her being overly defensive Like when Elijah grills her about Elena when her humanity is off and she quickly becomes very defensive because she feels like she's not being seen/heard/understood only Elena's side is. (which is usually the case especially concerning Elijah with Klaus too)

Overly defensive or aggressive lashing out is incredibly common in BPD as a defense mechanism when it feels like you're not being heard. It's no different for Katherine Pierce she consistently exhibits this behavior when met with scrutiny of any kind. If shes not doubling down to feed her cold hearted bitch facade than she is overly defensive of everything.

If people would learn how to talk to her this wouldn't be that big an issue but here we are in the land of mystic falls where everyone personally knows better than everyone else.

@ethyrcal asked: they were gonna kill me, i swear. (jongwoo & moonjo)

Eyes   glimmer   through   the   dimmed   lit   room   as   he   watches   with   fascination   the   way   Jongwoo's   minds   seems   to   work   overdrive,   trying   to   fill   in   the   blanks,   making   space   for   reason.   Would   his   mind   tell   him   it   was   never   him   who   did   such   things?   Perhaps   his   mind   would   tell   him   it   was   all   Moonjo,   a   way   to   protect   his   sanity.   But   what   he   sees   is   nothing   but   the   shattered   remains   of   a   piece   that   is   about   to   crumble   to   reveal   the   true   diamond   inside.   Fingertips   grace   over   the   others   uvula,   feeling   it   up   and   down   as   he   grabs   it.  

@ethyrcal asked: ❛ i wish i had another choice. ❜ (Yeon)

"Right."   Despite   his   best   facade,   Rang   had   never   been   able   to   hide   well   when   he   is   hurt.   He   often   lashes   out,   deadly   so   at   times,   and   others,   he   is   more   quiet   in   is   pain.   He   hates   how   expressive   he   can   be   when   his   brother   barely   seems   to   flinch   and   he   wonders   if   this   is   his   human   nature   slipping   through   the   fox   spirit   within.   "You   always   had   a   choice.   I   was   just   never   one   for   you."   It   seems   to   be   a   constant   in   his   life   since   he   was   born.  

@ethyrcal asked: you have no idea who i am, do you? (hwayeol)

Ra-ik   pauses.   He   does   his   best   to   keep   his   expression   neutral   but   it's   hard   for   him.   He   had   never   been   one   to   keep   it   all   in,   so   the   frown   is   visible   and   his   body   instantly   tenses   up.   Too   many   things   had   been   happening   in   his   life   lately   for   him   to   just   go   around   unscathed.   "Should   I   know   who   you   are?"   The   confusion   is   visible,   the   casualness   he   had   been   displaying   until   then   is   gone   as   arms   fold   against   his   chest,   as   if   to   try   and   put   an   invisible   wall   between   himself   and   the   man.  

@ethyrcal asked: ❛ i am being perfectly fucking civil . ❜ (yeon & doyun)

"Evidence   proves   the   contrary."   Perhaps   well   deserved,   but   he   would   think   his   son   would   know   better   than   let   his   emotions   ruin   his   composture   (   then   again,   he   did   fell   for   a   human,   enough   to   risk   his   position   as   a   Mountain   God   and   work   as   a   slave   for   Taluipa   for   six   hundred   years   ).   He   steps   back,   breaking   away   from   the   grasp   Yeon   had   on   his   collar   and   adjusted   it   with   casual   ease   before   looking   around.   "A   civil   man   would   never   react   as   you   did   just   know,   son.   You   have   spent   too   much   time   with   humans   to   realize   that."

@ethyrcal asked: 1D (zhihao @ baoyu)

@ethyrcal asked: 2E (ryu @ chaewon)

@ethyrcal asked: ‘ now imagine what we could do if you & your crew got with me & my crew. ’ (ara @ jay)

Yaehyun   breaks   into   a   smile,   it   graces   a   borderline   smirk   at   the   words.   Collaborations   are   not   rare   between   artists,   though   one   that   involves   all   members   of   two   groups   are   indeed   a   rare   taste.   Sunsette   are   already   stablished   in   the   industry   and   the   connections   would   make   OBSCURA   grow   in   sales   and   reach,   considering   the   international   market.   By   all   means,   the   leader   of   the   group   gets   the   appeal   of   such   a   collaboration.   "Not   my   decision."   He   states   though,   smugness   hiding   after   ra   moment,   hands   inside   his   pockets   before   he   leans   down   to   reach   eye   level.
