The only thing I interpreted from that scene was that at most, Stefan was willing to settle for Caroline because Elena's out of the picture.

Honestly, I can't even see how she still has any feelings for him at all. I mean this girl dumped her last bf bc he didn't make her his first priority AND He actually had a good reason for that. That isn't the case with Stefan at all. I don't see why the Caroline we've seen from the past 6 years would settle for a guy who isn't even in love with her. not even a little bit. __________________

Do I think this was well written, no I don't, but I do genuinely believe that we are supposed to think that his feelings for her are "special." __________________

Even the writers hesitate to answer if he has feelings for her, if all they keep saying is "he feels bad, he cares deeply" then there you have it.

One thing that weighs heavily in favor of S/C is the fact that I don't see a single shred of attraction between Stefan and Elena at this point. Yes, I am sure that could change with instant-human Elena, but I also think that if they're really that hellbent on making another triangle, it would be rather poor drama if one of the actors in it has literally no shot. __________________

^Like it was with Damon for the first two seasons? Yeah. that's what I thought.
****** I guess we see what we want to see. And what I've seen so far is everyone strong-arming Stefan into a relationship he clearly doesn't want. How many times has he said that he just doesn't see her that way, that he has NEVER seen her that way? Add to that his guilt racked mind, and her mother's death and Caroline pinning all her hopes on him and I don't see how it makes for a believable romance at all. See, I get the point of subtlety, but if the writers have the audience confused to the point that they don't even think that Stefan might be interested then there is a problem. I mean, even KC were written 1000x clearly than this and that ship was half in the shippers heads! __________________

Stefan had already been guilt-tripped for FOURTEEN episodes when he decided to give SC a shot. And even then he said "I may not be able to explain what I feel but it is something"
When you love someone you know, even if it's different from the kind of love you'd previously experienced. He doesn't know what it is because he's confusing his pity and guilt and genuine adoration for her for love. But even then he couldn't call it love, that's why were now seeing ANOTHER guilt storyline, this will get him there. __________________

The two talks between Stefan and Damon were a vehicle to prove precisely that he would not date Caroline out of pity, and that he could not be strong-armed into or out of a relationship. __________________

The writers are never going to blatantly present it as pity, they want you to invest in the romance until its time to end. You have to pay attention to the subtext and it's all guilt. If you're looking for it to be 100% obvious before you believe it then you will be waiting until they break up. __________________

Oh and reading what you said about the triangle, I don't think it's actually gonna be much of a triangle. I think it will break Elena's heart to see SC together but she'll keep her mouth shut and let them be happy, and then either Caroline will notice or maybe Bonnie/Damon will let something slip, there will be a few eps of drama and then Caroline will give the typical tv speech about how she knows Stefan will always be in love with Elena and she's letting him go. The end. You've seen one teen drama, you've seen 'em all. __________________
