“Would you even be here if I had longer to live? Maybe I’d let you chase me around fora few more centuries. That was always the fun part anyway […] I don’t know how to say goodbye. Try this. One of you stands, walks to the door, but doesn’t turn back, even if their heart aches for just one more look, one more moment. But you’ll know that the not looking… just means… I’ll never forget you.” –Klarolinejourney [Tvd 2011 – To 2018]
So… Elijah told everyone his plan in secret. They stealthily find a way to put the magic in him. Klaus survives since Elijah wants to die anyway. Hope doesn’t have to be an orphan now. Elijah reunites with Hayley and asks her to dance. Caroline and Klaus are off exploring the world. The End.
That’s the ending I’m going to pretend we just watched – because it actually makes sense and follows the foreshadowing they did ALL SEASON.
