Because a combination of the flashbacks and that scene at the end gave me all the Salvatore brotherly feels :)

Because I'm going to be here, pushing you back, until you don't need me any more. Why? Because I saw what happened last time. Because it was my fault and this is me fixing it. Back then it was horrible, but it was justice. You'd ruined my life and I was just returning the favour – or that's what I told myself anyway. It wasn't intentional. I never meant to … I'm so sorry …

Elena will come around, you know. And no, don't tell me it doesn't matter what she thinks, she doesn't matter, because she does, and, I mean, who are you trying to kid? Why did I do it? Do what? Make her hate me? I didn't make her do anything – she hates me. That's it. That's all there is to say. And no, I'm not trying to kid anyone, because I'm wrong for her and you're right. She still loves you, Stefan. Even after everything, she still loves you. And that proves a point, no?

I feel guilty, okay? Are you happy now that you've got me to say it? I turned you into a monster and, dammit, I know how shit that feels. So, no, I wouldn't prefer it if you went back to being mad at me, because then I won't have anyone left. I need you brother. And I bloody well know that you need me too, so stop pretending because you're not fooling anyone. Not even yourself.

Do I want you to admit it? Well yeah, yeah I do. Because fuck you, you've taken enough from me now, so just humour me this once, okay? Just let me go through with this. Because it'll help you, I know it will. Of course I want to hear you say it, but you're not going to, are you? Well, you can just fuck off then. Because, you know what? I'm feeling a little self-righteous too.

Thoughts? Or just VD chats … here's an example: OMG WTF ALARIC? ;)
