Just when you breathe a sigh of relief that Stefan is not lost forever, you realize it’s not over yet. Stefan may not be dead, but he’s not safe yet. There’s still a long way to go before we can relax.

I went into this episode being warned that we would be “losing some beloved characters,” but it still didn’t prepare me for what was to come. Where does The Vampire Diaries go from here?

We saw as Mystical Falls fell into chaos and now we’ve caught up with the flash forwards, but maybe everything isn’t as different as we originally thought.

It’s been a long time since we’ve had a crossover episode and this one gave us everything we were waiting for.

We’ve known for a while now that Steroline was doomed, we just didn’t know how it happened. There’s nothing that can prepare you for the end, only hope that maybe one day they will be reunited.
