The Mikaelson Familys Relationships, Especially Their Romantic Relationships, Are Weird. Klaus And Elijah

The Mikaelson family’s relationships, especially their romantic relationships, are weird. Klaus and Elijah have a weird thing going on in which they share partners (Katherine, Tatia, Hayley - but probably more. I think it’s kinda gross being with someone who’s been with your brother but to each their own I guess). Freya fell in love with someone she kidnapped - which is never a great sign.

But the worst is probably Rebekah who is technically Marcel’s aunt - and yet they’re together romantically. Davina is like Marcel’s daughter - and yet she’s with Kol who is like Marcel’s uncle which would mean that Davina is like Marcel’s aunt. However, if Hope is the sister of Marcel, and Marcel is the father of Davina, would that make Hope her aunt? Or if Davina’s with Kol, does that make Hope her niece and Marcel her nephew?

Honestly I think the only Mikaelson sibling to have a normal (as normal as it can be given that they’re vampires and live through centuries) romantic relationship is Finn. I think he and Sage were a pretty normal, average couple compared to everyone else.

I don’t know… I’m trying not to analyze the Mikaelsons and their messed up relationships too much because it kinda grosses me out and makes my head hurt. Im trying to focus on the bright side - no one is actually related - so that’s good.

The Mikaelson are each so fucked up and their personal relationships are even more screwed.

It was implied in The Vampire Diaries the Mikaelson shared partners sexually, and there was this one girl called Mary Porter/Scary Mary, who was a "Original groupie". She was close to all of them, to the point none of them could "remember" by which sibling she had been turned. Knowing how fucked up they are, sharing partners isn't something weird, especially to Klaus and Elijah who loved fighting over the same girl.

Freya falling in love with Keelin was so fucked up. I like them, they're cute once you get past the whole kidnapping thing, but it's wrong regardless. After she finally got with Freya, her storyline was reduced to nothing: she just became her love interest and stopped being her own person. Not surprising, though, the writers of this shows love doing that.

Marcel falling for Rebekah is just straight up grooming, and it's crazy how it was never addressed or how the fandom denies it. You're gonna tell me she saw him grow up, saw his brother love and care for him as his own son, and still managed to be attracted to him? To even marry him and want children with him? It's a miracle he never called her aunt at least once, even if it was sarcastically. I really don't like how the show kept painting Marcel as the bad guy and Rebekah as the victim because he refused to be/couldn't be with her, like why?

I can overlook Kol and Davina because he never saw Marcel as family and she never saw the Mikaelson as her family either, didn't even like them. Still wrong tho, because Davina was like fifteen/sixteen by the time they met and Kol/Kaleb looked around his twenties.

Finn and Sage were absolutely adorable. I truly like Finn and I wished he had at least a chance at a happy ending, but sadly he died twice and he couldn't even mourn the woman he loved.

At least they're not related, but fucked up anyway. I try not to analyze the Mikaelson relationships either because they're clearly problematic and fucked up even for an universe such as The Vampire Diaries, but oh well.

Thanks for the ask! I had fun answering it.

Hi i sent as ask months ago but i guess it didnt go through

i was just wondering if you could recommend a wattpad tvd fic for me where the characters act like they do in canon

im so tired of fics where katherine is the OCs bestie and klaus is a puppy dog

and elena is suddenly the most evil person alive yet caroline is the most understanding?!?!

tyler is the perviest horriblest man ever?!?! like what

could you please recommend a good tvd fic, also give a review of it if you can i dont mind spoilers im sick of reading bad fics. preferably a wattpad one

Hey anon! Your ask didn't get lost, I just didn't have the chance to answer it <3

Here is the recommendations you asked me for.

No because literally.

The way klayley stans twist every single scene they have together to prove "they were in love" is laughable because they literally ignore the whole context of the scene. Every single occasion in which Klaus "showed" any romantic feelings towards Hayley is him lashing out because Jackson gets to play daddy to his daughter or because Elijah hurt him.

Like this man literally went to search for Hayley in New Orleans, threatening everyone and knowing he was making the people who held her hostage more angry and wanting to kill her more because Elijah broke his heart and Marcel even was mad about it, telling him to get his shit together and not let it cloud his judgment because Hayley's life was danger and he was even flirting with Caroline while she was being beaten so let's stop 💀 (the way people use this as "proof" Klaus loved her tho, everyone and even Klaus himself kept saying he was doing this so Hope didn't lose her mother and because Elijah broke his heart).

Yes, they were sexually attracted to each other during a long time (all that died in s4 and s5 tho) but that doesn't equal romantic love, like wtf. Hayley pointed out she was scared of Klaus during her pregnancy and she was willing to let Klaus kill himself in s4 so Elijah (the man she loved) could come back, Klaus was willing to let Hayley die in s1 if that meant Hope would live, and he begged for Cami's life the moment Aurora threatened her yet was willing to let Lucien potentially kill Hayley because his pride was bigger.

"klayley is canonically romantic" embarassing 💀

I don't understand why people try to invalidate the fact that Klaus abused Hayley. He took her freedom, he physically assaulted her, and he said he trusted her and then broke her neck. He cursed her and kept her away from the daughter she died to birth just because he felt entitled to the baby. He became a deadbeat, and she had to do all the lifting on her own, and like every ungrateful teenager, Hope still didn't hesitate to throw her under the bus to have Klaus attention. Klaus loved Hayley as a family and was sexually attracted to her for a while, yes. But let's not pretend that he spent a lot of time tolerating Hayley because she was the womb who gave him a child. She was literally held in a choke by him because she wanted an abortion for the baby he crossed his heart and hoped to die that was unwanted. Klaus didn't love Hayley romantically at all, and that's why he held her to the same kind of abuse he held his siblings, especially Rebekah. The fact he accepted Hayley and Elijah far better than he accepted Jackson because in love with Hayley, Elijah would never leave him, but Hayley with Jackson would limitate his control over her life... basically all he did to Rebekah, on some scale. Cursed her to be trapped as wolf stealing her life, essentially, as he stole Finn's life. It's not the same thing, but it's the same line of thinking. Hayley was and will always be family and I love her character and think she was her best self around Klaus but he didn't loved her as a woman, he loved her a family and because he saw his family as his assets, he abused her as he abused his family, because even being a victim, Klaus was a perpetrator of the cycle of abuse his father started. Abused his siblings, abused his son, and then abused the mother of his child.

For Rosalie and Leah: Do you know that there are people out there who think the two of you would make a good couple? How do you feel about that?

hi <3 i was wondering if you would be able to help me out. i was looking for an old elijah fic that i read on here a while back, i think it was still incomplete at the time; maybe about 2018 or so? but it basically starts off with the events of tvd s2 with the mc also being kidnapped alongside elena by trevor and rose. and then the salavatores come and rescue elena but leave the mc behind, and elijah ends up taking her with him. she ends up sticking with him and the mikaelson fam throughout the events bc the gang aren't very apologetic abt forgetting her. very bare bones unfortunately bc that's all i can remember.

Sorry, anon, no idea :(

I usually read only Klaus fanfictions or poly Mikaelson, but hopefully someone can recognize this fic for you.

GIRL HOW DARE YOU

HOW DARE YOU RECOMMEND ALLURE TO ME

ITS YOUR FAULT IM BROKEN NOW

holy hell that book is destroying me piece by piece i was actually sobbing its so well written everything connects even when you dont notice one detail its important

also im sorry to say but.....i like klaus and mia together from the way you spoke i got the feeling you ddint but i cant help but squeal when i read their scenes especially at homecoming they have sexy hot chemistry its suffocating

team stefan and mia all the way though as endgame but i think klaus and mia deserve a second chance

you were right about mia being a new kind of oc its very nice to see a oc care for characters who arent just love interests i didnt like elena but after reading it i understand her same with tyler and i hated him most of all but now i love him

this book is my roman empire and i blame you because i cant think of anything else

KSKSKKS I KNOW RIGHT???

Listen I absolutely adore Klaus, he's a bitch even tho I acknowledge all of his wrongs but he just makes me so fucking mad in Allure. He's just making her confused and hurting her and if he doesn't go back to being Nik with her, not Klaus, then he's about to catch some hands. And anyway his lifestyle is just gonna put her in danger, my girl needs to have a happy life with Cami.

I'm also gonna recommend you a wattpad fic about Klaus that I completely forgot about mentioning in my last post. It's A Dark Twisted Fantasy by @saintsir4n and it's just golden, the Klaus depicted there is 100% canon Klaus and he makes me want to strangle him so badly.
