“Fine is a horrible state of being. No one really wants to be fine. You’re not happy. You’d not sad. You’re just like there. It’s like a going through the motions state-of-being. And even then its not that. It’s the catch-all phrase people use when they’re anything but okay but they don’t want people to worry about them, but you kind of really need to be worrying about them.” At least that’s how it seemed to her. She felt that was how her circle of friends had always used the word. It was a brush off tactic--a don’t worry about me one.
“And.” Oh. How did she even begin to explain what was steadily beginning to increasingly annoy her the more she saw it? And explain it to Kol? That was the hard part. Maybe it was a silly thing to get annoyed about though. Maybe she needed to get talked down off the ledge about it because Caroline really couldn’t see it ending anytime soon and the irriation would only worsen.
“I dunno if I’m just picking up on it more or what but its really becoming aggravating how people keep on bringing up how your brother is apparently the worst person ever to exist. And like I get not liking him. I get hating him even for personal reasons that have to do with him being him and doing awful stuff to others. Like we should never have to be okay with the people who killed us or killed people we love.” Even if holding onto that hate really wasn’t helpful either. “But like...call him out on actual stuff. Because aside from family drama he’s actually been helpful to Lawrence at large. And its just annoying me. People went after that one guy for being mad at Loki, who hasn’t done any of the stuff yet that they’re mad at him about, but Davina is completely justified in her hatred for stuff Klaus hasn’t done yet. Like I don’t see the difference. I see why Davina and the other guy should get their hate but I...just don’t see the rest of it.”
The whole double standards thing was seriously real and annoying as hell.
