The First Time Athenodora Told You Something About Her Personal Life Was A Rainy Day In Volterra And

The first time Athenodora told you something about her personal life was a rainy day in Volterra and the two of you decided to wear cute raincoats and boats and go for a walk around the city, Felix and Demetri following shortly after you.

When the two of you approached the park, somehow the conversation got deeper in the blink of an eye. "There has been actually one time when I got scared by Caius's reaction, though it was a long time ago." She stated and you motioned her to continue. "In the middle ages, many ancient Greek statues got destroyed because the bronze they were made of was very useful and needed at the time, for weapons, mostly. I never understood how they were able to destroy something so elegant and pure to make something so shameful.". Athenodora played a little with her hair, twisting and curling it with her pale fingers. "When they destroyed the last standing statue of Policletus, I got angry. I couldn't confront those who had destroyed the statue because they were for a powerful coven. One day I was crying in the library when Caius found me. From the moment he saw my tears, I could see and feel rage growing inside of him. I told him the whole story, and then the following day he left with Aro by his side. they returned one month later, the coven who had destroyed the statue had been slaughtered.".

You were speechless. Of course you had already understood that Caius was full of anger and potentially a very dangerous being, but you never thought he could be triggered by such a little matter.

You looked at Athenodora, who was shaking a little bit. "Hey, Dora, as you said they were a powerful coven, you would have conquered then anyway". She smiled a little and turned her head towards you. "Maybe not as violently as Caius and Aro did in the end". You shrugged. "There's no point in "maybes" and "ifs", Dora".

"It was the first time I got scared by Caius's reaction". She confessed. "He did it because you were hurt, it's understandable" you responded, and she appeared happy with this reply.

"Thank you Y/N, this was a nice talk". You smiled. "Anytime, Dora, anytime".

Tanya: What does feminism mean to you?

Well, it’s really important to me. I think I’m quite a lucky woman to live in Italy not not somewhere else, but I recognize that there’s still a lot to be done in terms of making the genders equal. Something deep inside the ore of ociety itself must change and I hope I am right when I claim I see there’s an actual possibility, expecially in the younger generations.

ROMANIAN COVEN PLAYLIST

Listen to it on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9l5n14k4EMsPND3UwybbPtWrBxQVtRf7

I tried to pick songs that would tell Vladimir and Stefan’s story from the fall of their original coven to the modern days. 

1. War of change -  Thousand Foot Krutch

“It’s just about to break, it’s more than I can take. Everything’s about to change, I feel it in my veins”.

2. Die for you - Otherwise

“Can’t kill the way I feel, can’t stop a hurt so real”

3. Revenga - System of a Down

“My sweet revenge will be your for the taking”

4. Kill each other/LIve forever - Scars on Broadway

“ We don't wanna believe that the world can still move on We don't wanna believe that the sun can still shine on”

5. Big bad wolf - In this moment

“Even in these chains you can’t stop me”

6. When they come for me - Linkin park

“Oh, when they come for me, I’ll be gone”

7. Hard time - Seinabo Sey 

“Hard time forgiving, even harder forgetting” “I did let you win”

8. Psycho killer - Velvet revolver

“ I can’t seem to face up to the facts I’m tense and nervous and I can’t relax “

9. Respectness - Seeed

“You show respect and I respect you. You protect me and I’ll protect you”

10. III Ray (The king) - Kasabian 

“ If I had it all I'd be dead in a week If I had my way I'd be king for a day “

Enjoy!

Who do you think is more awkward when it comes to flirting, Vlad or Stefan? Given how long it must be since they've actually been in a courtship I think it would be hilarious to see them try to date nowdays.

Times are hard for Vladimir and Stefan when it comes to dating. Neither of them knows the rules of Modern Dating. They ignore it all. So I think they both would be deadly awkard while trying to date someone from 20th/21st century AD. They wouldn’t even fit the basic rules. For example, they’d show up dressed like what? They sure would wear an old shirt from another time, probably stained with blood. Nice, uh?What would they show up with? Flowers are good but would they really go the florists to buy them? Or would they pick up flowers…? If their love interest happens to be human, they wouldn’t understand that they need food, a warm/fresh place (depends on the season) and to rest after some time. I’m not even sure they’d be able to resist the thirst. I’m pretty sure they’d date vampires, though it’s diffuclt for them to find someone their own species who doesn’t hate or fear or pity or find them laughable.

To respond to your question, I think Vladimir is more awkard. Stefan is (almost) canonically more laid back than his companion, and would bring their partner to some park, just strolling and chatting and enjoying nature. Very simple but has its effects because Romanian nature is literally breath-taking. Stefan, in general, a good listener and observer, so it’s definetely a plus in a romantic meeting. He knows all the relaxing places all over Eastern Europe because he, too, once in a while, needs a pause from the constant eye-gouging and war-starting rambling of Vladimir. Vladimir on the other hand would spend a very serious amount of time planning his date to the smallest detail. He would bring their love interest to some old castle and try to impress them with his countless stories of The Good Old Times. He knows how to keep people entratained but his way works only with people who totaly hate the Volturi -and not many vampires are ofnd of the idea of declaring outloud they don’t like their kings.

Stefan has surely tried to explain to Vladimir how to improve his dating skills, but since Vladimir think of himself as a perfect being, it ended with them not speaking for one week and then catching up and apologizing with a hug.
