I was hoping Bonkai's connection would go a different route but if Kai has to be killed by anyone, I would prefer it to be Bonnie! They have been worthy adversaries all season long.

In my opinion so, so true!
The whole season the writers gave clues for a other storyline for them, at least it feels like that for me. And so many things got no closure till now (for example: Bonnie does not know, that Kai made the spell and helped Jeremy, so that Bonnie could come back from 1994...at least I saw nothing that she knows that) and I really, really doubt the last epi of this season will change that.
Anyway now I just hope, that the writers will not kill Kai off and that we see him again in season 7.

And a HELLO to everyone here.
Please can someone add me to the shipperlist, too.

Added you, Frust-sheep, welcome to the thread

Frust-sheep

Aww, thank you very much LabuanPearl88!

LabuanPearl88

You're welcome

About Kai returning, I think it all depends on Chris' schedule bc of his new show But they really should have taken more time to explore his character and his relationship with Bonnie, everything it's too rushed right now, 1 episode is not enough

Everyone see this yet?

Hi

I'm really quite sad about this whole thing. JP has made it clear that she hates the ship and I feel like she only dropped Kai's redemption arc so she could put a stop to it. There have been so many things this season that were pointing to a different outcome than Kai reverting back to his pre-merge self and now those episodes after the merge kind of feel like a waste to me. In addition, the ship's popularity is growing and the chemistry is so strong and I find it baffling that they refuse to capitalize on it when they're already losing two major ships.

And it kills me that Bonnie will probably never know what Kai did on her birthday.

I don't know if I want Kai to survive. I have a feeling he will and I would love that, but I kind of think that if Kai comes back next season, they'll suddenly make him redeemable and give him a new, random love interest or whatever. But regardless, I'm not watching anymore anyway.

That video is breathtaking!! Love the parallels of the two...stunningly done!

I am very disappointed in the storyline direction as well. I do think things changed when Julie cast him in her new show. I do hope they keep him alive just in case the new show doesn't work, that is the only way I see him returning, is if cordon gets cancelled mid-seaon. Otherwise I hold out no hope of seeing Kai since I think it would be too confusing to see him on two different shows on the same network playing two different characters. Plus jp really does hate Bonkai and I think she will do everything in her power to keep those two separate and unfortunately she holds all the power. It is ridiculous that she would not want to capitalize on Kat and Chris chemistry! The foundation was there and the opportunity for a complicated story dynamic would have practically written itself. These two were the best part of this season for me. I'm sad their story is coming to such a premature end!!

You use these tags: [yt] [*/yt] without the * and between them you put the last part of the video's link, in your case this one: PPaTDXh82s

I agree with this, if I think back to those episode, they seem so wasted now I prefer evil!Kai, but if they decided to follow that path, they should have done ti completely I think that if Chris/Kai will stay, there may be still a chance to develop the relationship with Bonnie, not sure in which way, but they could have handled this far better Waste of potential to me, either way they wnated it to end

Don't think she'll ever discover it, which is strange, considering that even Jer was involved they didn't even try

If they were smart, they'd make him survive and develop him in the next season, and his relationship with Bonnie too, romantic/enemies/witches doesn't matter, they have potential being two witches so strong... but since they proved a lot not to me smart in any way, I doubt it

I agree with this, potential was there in many forms, they wasted it which is a pity

After yesterday I can say I totally agree. I don't like it anyway what they keep doing with bonnie and kan is back to hateful again.

Looking forward to more scenes between these two! Love them.

Angell4

Good-bye Bonkai! You will always be one of my favorites...your scenes were always so riveting. Such a waste of a compelling dynamic brought to an abrupt end! I will miss seeing these two light up my screen with their chemistry and spark.

LabuanPearl88

Totally rushed, this whole thing should have been handled better and longer, with them having more fights, it's a pity

KeepThisaSecret

What a waste! It could have been epic.

FSU/MSW-94

This right here! There would have been so much storytelling potential next season if Kai would have remained a Heretic-Vampire-Witch! I'm still not over the wasted potential for those two!

I'll just stick to fanfic for my BonKai fix!

Faiths_Angel

I'm really disappointed. They wasted all this chemistry and potential. However, I was expecting much worse, because for weeks they made it seem as though Kai would literally rip out her heart with his bare hands and walk all over her corpse or something. The standoff wasn't epic at all. I hate that the Sleeping Beauty theory ended up being true.

I've never been as invested in and obessed with a TVD ship as Bonkai. I've loved being a part of this fandom, I've had so much fun for the past few months. I truly believe that, if given the chance, this ship would have been truly epic. And not even necessarily in a romantic sense. I think their dynamic could have been explored in so many different ways. Kat & Chris have such fantastic, electric chemistry that I would have watched them interact in any way, shape or form. That's the sad part for me.
