“If the Avengers are the Partridge Family, Nick Fury is Reuben Kincaid.” – Joss Whedon
The moment I saw that quote, my imagination immediately fixated on the words “the Avengers are the Partridge Family” and this is what popped out.
However, if you’re too young to remember the Partridge Family and don’t know the relevance of the little birdies, here’s the title sequence so you can sing along!
#he’s so honest lmao #he doesnt even care if he hurts her feelings with it #but her feelings dont get hurt #so it doesnt matter #Elena knows that Damon will always be honest with her #no matter what #thats why they fit#because honestly #no one else would point out what shes doing like that #he does it because he loves her #and its because he loves her #that he’s honest with her#he can’t just coddle her #and treat her like shes four #he treats her like an adult#like the woman he knows she is #and because of this #she fights him #she fights him because even though he’s being honest and that he thinks enough of her to be honest with her #she still feels like she has a lot to prove to him #a lot to prove to everyone #she has to prove that she can do things on her own #its really important for her to not only prove this to everyone #but even more importantly prove it to herself
#YES #THIS#and people say he treats elena as a child #the contrary and tbh she is one #elena is a little girl who needs help not blind support #because she is still so young and you shouldn’t allow her to make mistakes if it costs too much #damon can’t support all her decisions because some of them are just crazy #you don’t treat someone as a child if you try to make him reason #damon stands up he voices his opinion and help elena grow #he challenges her he makes her question life beliefs #he wants to protects her and sometimes he may cross the limits but he’d risk his life to save hers#damon is honest he doesn’t buy elena’s bullshit #elena wants to play adult but in the end she achieves the exact opposite result by playing recklessly #and damon is there always putting the pieces together
