The Vampire Diaries Season 3 Highlights → Elena Gilbert; Warrior Princess
“if it makes me the bad guy for wanting to keep those people alive then…fine. I’ll be the bad guy”
"To me the most moving moment in the whole thing is when Elena says, ‘I don’t want to be a vampire, That worked, and I think that’s going to drive the entire fourth season for a long time, and watching her on that journey. Once we came up with the Original family, we knew that the next stage would be Elena turning into a vampire."
— Kevin Williams on Elena turning into a Vampire.
"This may bring her closer than ever to Stefan, or it may give her a deeper bond with Damon."
— Julie Plec on Elena transitioning.
"Elena handles everything so well… What’s going to be everyone’s breaking point? How is everyone keeping it so together? It’s going to be interesting to see how Elena handles this, because you assume [she’ll handle it] wonderfully and beautifully and with grace."
— Candice Accola
