Welcome to Milkland

Sing with us the national anthem:



And a pigeon flew down from the heavens and said:

Then made the Ten Commandments for DE shippers across the land:
1. Thou shall worship Damon/Elena at all times.
Even when eating - you eat that rice like Damon/Elena touched it with their beauty.
2. Thou shall be free to be naked on the thread.
If time calls for it don't resist, let yourself be free.
3. Thou shall have at least fifty seven shrines in your house
At least twenty nine should be of Damon/Elena. The rest should be of Ian Somerhalder's ass.
4. Thou shall stalk Ian Somerhalder and take naked pictures of him.
5. Thou should be prepared to go to jail for stalking.
6. Thou shall drink milk at all times.
7. Every friday thou shall ride on a cow and shout "DAMON AND ELENA FOREVAHHHH BIIIIITCHES" to passers by.
8. Thou shall take a shot everytime Damon/Elena are Damon/Elena-ish.

Yes bitches we be drunk all the time.
9. Thou shall move out and live in Milkland in a house made out of a cheese wheel.
10. Thou shall worship the pigeon for he is our saviour.





Damon and Elena are a very intoxicating couple: they can leave you breathless just by one look.
That type of fiery passion stems from the roots of Ian/Nina's chemistry.
Not only is it passionate and intense but it's such a natural chemistry that it makes their relationship so believable.
When the show started we saw Damon as this bad-ass guy who didn't really care for anything but himself but over time
we have come to see that deep down inside he still has some humanity left.
Elena is the reason for this: it started off as Damon just remembering his feelings for Katherine; so we knew he was capable of love.
But over time he started to see her for who she was completely: Just Elena.
And that was enough for him.
He looked past her appearance saw something inside of her which made him want to protect and fight and care for the people who mean something to him.
And through this change in Damon, Elena found a friend and a saviour.
We are so lucky to have such an amazing build-up because they're not rushing into anything:
they're taking their time, savouring every moment, every touch, every look.
It's only the beginning but I believe their story will be one of the greats.
~ Laura

We could talk for hours if we had to enumerate all the reasons why Damon & Elena are the most amazing pairing ever.
So I will just say that I love them so much because they have the best chemistry I have ever seen on screen in my life.
I also love that they didn't come easy, that Elena have known him first for his bad sides and decided to forgive him and now she's discovering the good part of him too.
I love that they don't have to lie to each other, they can show themself to the other as they really are.
And I know this is the basis of any good relationship. They have the best build-up and it is very important in a couple, especially with them.
They don't rush anything.
They're real.
~ Pauline

There are so many reasons why I love Damon and Elena that it's impossible to list them all.
Firstly, there's the amazing and undeniable chemistry Ian and Nina have that makes their scenes so natural and full of sexual tension.
Then there's the fact that they're only truly themselves when they're around each other.
She brings out his humanity and kindness and makes him want to be someone better simply by believing in him, something no one else had ever done before.
And in turn, he helps her let loose and brings out that fun, fiery and passionate side of her like no one else does.
They reveal the best in each other and understand one another without even needing words.
They have the chemistry, the connection, the build up, and that's why Damon and Elena are the real OTP of the series.~ Rita


When I read the books, I always was a DE shipper inside.
But I didn't think that I would be such a big shipper until the show started.
No one can deny the spark that they both have, because even if they aren't in a relationship, they still have something.
Elena understands Damon; she can see that there's more to him that meets the eye.
And Damon, in return, gets Elena more than she can imagine.
My favorite character is Damon and to see how much humanity comes out of him because of Elena, it warms my heart.
They understand each other and the development of their relationship is what makes it even stronger every time.
I believe that more exciting things will come with these two soon enough because there's so much chemistry, sexual tension and understanding...
which will grow into something more.
~ Moni8
Damon and Elena have such a rare and intense chemistry, everything about them is so brand new.
I enjoy their relationship mainly because both bring out sides of each other that arent shown often.
Around Damon, Elena is carefree and isnt constantly worrying.
She has this glow on her everytime Damon is around.
Elena brings out Damon's humanity and she's the only one who can really see through him for who he truly is.
Their subtle glances and caring gestures make up for the words they don't speak.
When it comes to Damon and Elena, you're always in for a surprise.
Every scene is a treat and it only leaves you wanting more.
I know for sure that thisis one journey I'm truly enjoying and it's only the beginning.
~ Amber
Damon and Elena are everybody's guilty pleasure.
I think what its so enticing about these two its that they are the true definition of 'Forbidden'.
Elena seems to be Damon's forbidden fruit and he can't help but get it at any costs, he isn't afraid to push people's way to get what he wants,
and this passion he has its what will bring him to fall in love without ever realizing it.
Its not the typical sweet, cheesy love, its raw, cruel and fierce its what makes them this passionate.
Elena is drawn to Damon, but she's afraid of this feeling, this connection between the two, that's why she doesn't get any closer,
she knows with Damon everything is dangerous, so she takes the easy highway, cause she's afraid of the feelings that come out once with Damon,
this fierce passion she gets while with him is a different feeling, and she doesnt know wether to fear it or embrace it.
Damon, on the other hand isn't a suicidal lover, he won't die if he doesn't get Elena finally by his side,
he would just keep fighting for her, harder and harder, this is way Damon and Elena will never be easy, its the kind of love that kills, and yeah...
i'll quote Spike 'they'll fight and they'll shag, and they'll hate each other till it makes them both quiver, cause love isn't brains, its blood'.
~ Claudia

Damon and Elena are known as Twin Flames, which means:
"Twin flames, also called twin souls, are literally the other half of our soul."
We all have only one twin, the other half that completes you in every way possible.
I found these words to be very powerful and true when it comes to Damon and Elena.
These two balance each other out, bringing out feelings within themselves that they have chose to keep locked away.
Apart, Elena can be serious and have the ability to take too much upon herself.
Damon on the other hand can be fun, yet dark, and evil, suppressing his human half.
Together, they balance each other out, Elena making Damon more human and Damon making Elena let go and just be herself.
Damon and Elena are two halves of a whole and that has been proven many times over the course of the show as well as the books, and for that,
it is why my attraction is so strong, a pull and a force that can only get stronger. ~ Ashley (toxicgurl169)

Why do I love Damon and Elena?
There are many reasons why I love them.
The probably most important reason would be the chemistry between these two.
This undeniable chemistry that is real and intense.
Nina and Ian also have a special chemistry and they transfer it to Damon and Elena on the show, which lead to incredible moments between them.
Anoher reason why I love them is that Damon behaves differently towards Elena.
Damon shows her his humanity.
He doesn't show this to other people.
I just love those meaningful looks between them, Elena's lip staring and the faith they have in each other.
Even if Damon kills more people, Elena will see the true Damon.
She will soon see that she loves him.
Their feelings for each other will grow slowly and at some point they will explode.
They belong together.
~ Natalie (bluestar_Nater)





Damon and Elena are pure fire.
That's what makes me think about them.
They have this connection and this sexual tension that sooner or later will explode! I really enjoy their build-up.
It's slow but in a really good way.
Little by little Elena learned to know and understand Damon and she ended-up caring about him.
On the other side, Damon learned to trust Elena and love her.
After more than a century he decided to trust her.
She's the only one that ever try to understand him and that show him love.
I think they complete each other and can be themself together.
There's something so strong and undeniable between them.
You can feel it everytime they're around each other.
Ian and Nina are doing an amazing job with them and they've so much chemistry.
It's like WOW!
They are always able to touch me in every their scene.
~ Silvia (Peyton89)

I believe it is impossible to not love DE if one loves the characters of Damon and Elena both as they bring out what is best in eachother and make the other one grow.
All great love stories, of the kind that are the most memorable, are of couples who need to work at it to finally end up together.
They face many obstacles, from third parties intervening to their own making -their fears, stubborness, self-worth issues-…
But after all the struggle, both inner and outer, they finally grow, both as characters and a couple to reach a
point where it is time to open themselves to one another completely and claim the other as their true eternal mate.
And that is the moment everyone has been waiting for.
That is the moment the whole story has been building for.
Every obstacle in their way was there to bring them a step closer to one another, to add more meaning to their story, to make it even more memorable, more striking.
And DE is made of that kind of greatness.
Theirs is the story that already managed to strike something special in a lot of people.
Theirs is the relationship that gets lots of build-up and intrigues and moves everyone one way or another and has them talking.
They are THE couple of the show that everyone responds to.
DE is the couple who has a story that needs and deserves to be told and TVD is telling that story.
~ Schumiac




Damon&Elena are MILKACOW, in other words Epic.
I love them because they understand each other on a level that no one else does.
Elena brings out Damon's humanity but it hasn't been an easy road.
It's a complicated love that blossomed from a rare friendship.
They both protect and save each other and are each others equals.
I love that their banter in the books is the same on-screen, funny, playful, and adorably cute!
Not only do they have the best conversations but in scenes where there are no words, it's just as powerful because their eyes speak for them.
Elena is both Damon's weakness and strength.
They both depend on each other more than they let on.
He shows her how to have fun while she remains the only person in his life who can genuinely make him smile.
His pain is her pain and her pain is his pain.
DE do not like it when the other is hurt and are there to support and help each other back up all the time, without question.
They just get each other.
They are one.
I love DE so much but even more because of Nian - they have INTENSE chemistry!
~ Melissa (Brucas <3)

I guess I have to say that I ship DE mostly cause of the build up they are having.
I can't say when I start to ship them, it was something that it just happened.
They have such an awesome chemistry.
They are defenatly one of the kind.
It's mind blowing to see them interact, to see them getting closer and learning that they can fall back on each other when they need.
To see them realizing that they care about each other and that they can even possibly fall in love with each other is a jorney that you really don't want to miss.
~ Renata (miss_salvatore)

Damon and Elena have amazing potential.
Their chemistry is absolutely undeniable.
Immediately when they met they had an understanding of each other and their friendship has grown.
Elena is the only person to bring out Damon's humanity, which you can see by how much he cares for her and fiercely protects her.
Elena is drawn to Damon and she is realising how much she needs him in her life.
Their connection has grown strong and will only get stronger over time. They have had a fantastic buildup and their story can only get better as their feelings develop further.

Because you'll never be denied everlasting love.
Come close and hold my heart.
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was struck
'Cause everything is new and everything is you
The world is too dangerous for anything but truth and too small for anything but love.
"It means that there's only one love for everyone who exists. And when you meet that love, you know them."- LJ Smith
Because she sings a song only he can understand
'I will hide you when it gets too much.'
'I could do worse and you could do better.'
We’ll have the days we break and we’ll have the scars to prove it; we’ll have the bonds that we save but we’ll have the heart not to lose it
There's a light, there's the sun, taking all the shattered ones to the place we belong, and our love will conquer.
It's not about the kiss, it's about the journey
Because they're each other's Salvation and Desire
And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love if it does not exist. You are the only exception.
Someday, you'll share your world with me... Someday.
Because your great dilemmas I'm finding myself in.
I want you ... I need you ... I love you.
I'm running out of ways to make you see I want you to stay here beside me..
I've got a fever, it's burning, but it feels so good.
Because baby we're inextricably intertwined.
Damon's the classic hero who changed for the love of this woman.
I won't tell anybody how you turned my world around. I won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound.
A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
But I am losing all control. My Heart. My Mind. My Body and My Soul.
Every touch, every breath, I remember. Every smile every kiss, I'll never forget.
Because what you got boy is hard to find, I think about it all the time.
I'm all strung out, my heart is fried. I just can't get you off my mind.
I need you tonight, i need your life to surround me.
Elena will show him the rose within and help him to conquer his thorns.
My heart stops when you look at me. Just one touch, now baby I believe.
They're undeniable. Fine, fresh, fierce, they've got it on lock!
You're my sun when the rain is falling.
You're the moon when the night comes.
I dream of you dreaming of me kissing your face.
Forever I pray those beautiful eyes wanna fall upon me, and say, "It's alright, 'cause I'm yours."
At first, he's intrigued by her mere physical resemblance with Katherine. But now, it creaks for everything she is. - Ian
Because underneath all your thorns I see glimpses of a beautiful rose
You make me want to live
I can feel everything you do
I know now, you're my only hope
I have a headache in my chest, from all the chaos that you left
You tipped my world up on its side
And maybe I'm not up for being a victim of love
You're the one to whom nobody verses I love you
Theres no escape, So keep me safe
Delena fans, you are depressing me. Read my lips. You have NO REASON to think that Stefan will win the girl. - LJ Smith
You're everything in my life's been missing.
The feelings that I have for you, keeps hurting me inside.
Beautiful girl, you are the reason I smile.
You're the reason I come home, my love.
In all my life, and the here after, I've never seen someone like you.
No doubt true love comes from the heart.
Everything I do, I do anything for you.
You can't walk away and try to claim that none of this was real.
"I'm surprised that you though I'd kiss you back."- Elena "Now I'm hurt" - Damon
"Damon, what's wrong with you" - Elena "Lie about this" - Damon
All I see is you and me. The fight for you is all I've ever known.
There's someone I've been missing. I think that they could be the better half of me.
Hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin. It might start now
Despite what Elena may believe, Damon does regret it. - RabidDoll
"Katherine drove him straight into wanton hatred, self-loathing -- all the dark things that Elena had slowly lured him away from". - Rabid doll

She says don't let go, Never give up it's such a wonderful life.
"TV Duos who should do it: Damon and Elena." - TV Guide
'When do you get to that point, that enough is enough? Never.' The Mexican.
Tonight, I could fall too soon into this beautiful moonlight.
I can't set my hopes too high, 'cause every hello ends with a goodbye.
Here I go, it's what I feel. And for the first time in my life, I know it's real.
Katherine said, hate is the beginning of most love stories. It was no surprise that we ended the episode with Elena saying 'I hate him.' - KW.
"..You get angry and cover it up and then you do something stupid"- E's right
Elenas thoughts: I may only be human, but I will run through fire to save him!
'E runs through the flames to plead for his life. See? She has no feelings for him at all. Except for all the hatred, obvo.' TWOP
She hates him so much, she jumped through fire to save him!
I never knew I could feel that much, and that’s the way I love you.
I'm so in love that I acted insane, and that’s the way I love you.
This romeo is bleeding, but you can't see his blood. It's nothing but feelings that got kicked up.
When you say your prayers try to understand, I've made mistakes, I'm just a man.

I thought Damon darting in front of Elena and taking an arrow in the back for her would've made up some ground between them.
At her door step, it was deja vu (if that had really been her instead of Katherine in the season 1 finale).
I like the fact that Elena is strong enough to put Damon is his place.
that's an unfathomable amount of rage, coupled with the rejection he felt from Elena and his natural vampire tendency to null the pain by whatever means necessary.
