Delena [ 4x07 ] The Truth About Sire Bond

Now, before you yawn and say “You bitch crazy, they’re just dresses! Get over it” I want you to remember how we were all laughing at the way they mentioned in the synopsis the dress picking scene. And we were all saying how “These better be wonderful dresses if they mentioned them in the synopsis.” So, calm down and read this.There is a reason this scene is so important.
Blue is Stefan. Red is Damon.
April: The blue one seems a little safe.
Elena: Safe is good, when it comes to the judges. (aka. everyone in the world hating on Elena for choosing Damon - Caroline, Stefan, Bonnie etc.)
Elena used to want safety. And that’s also what her friends - the judges- want for her. No matter how many times Damon saves Elena, they will always see in him something dangerous.
Damon: Definetely the red one.
Caroline: We’ve already agreed that the red one is a little showy.
Damon: It’s a pageant. It’s the whole point.
Judgy!Caroline is totally against the red dress, completely againts Damon. Red is dangerous, showy. And they (meaning Elena and Caroline) already agreed that the blue one is the best. And Caroline doesn’t want to change her mind. But Damon thinks this is exactly the point of the pageant - the point of life. You can’t just stay safe your entire life. You need action, and excitement and danger.
Caroline: Did you win Miss Mystic last year? No. I don’t think you did.[#BTICH PLEASE]
Damon: Neither did Elena. She wore blue.
THIS is really interesting. Damon didn’t win Miss Mystic last year (obviously). But we’re not talking about the pageant now. Damon didn’t win last year. Elena chose Stefan last year. He didn’t get the girl. He lost. But Elena wore blue, Elena was with Stefan and she still lost. She isn’t with Stefan anymore, she died and nothing good came out from the decision of choosing blue, of choosing Stefan.
Damon: Red, right, Elena?
Elena:The red is pretty.
Damon gave Elena a new perspective over red, over the concept of a life filled with ‘passion, adventure and even a little danger’. So now the red dress really seems prettier, better.
Caroline: What happened to ‘safe is good’?
What happened to ‘safe is good’? What happened to the love Elena used to feel for Stefan? It’s gone. Elena doesn’t want Stefan anymore. That’s it.
Elena: Whichever you want to wear, April.
In the end it all comes down to what she wants. And we all know Elena wants a love thatconsumes her. Not something safe. Something showy. Elena chose red in the end. And so did April.
And April wore the red dress. And guess what. She won.
Elena wore blue last year. And guess what. She lost.
