A after watching the episodes and everything that lead up to the homecoming episode have had a shift about Klaus. A shift that I believe I was intended to have. After meeting Klaus’ family, and seeing that he considered Stefan his best friend, and realizing how isolated he must have felt growing up with a father who didn’t really like him much to start, more so once he had proof he wasn’t biologically his… and then the way he cried when talking to Michael…

To me I feel like the writers have done a huge job of making him more human, from the way he thought he’d always be alone when his first attempt at hybrids all died, to little things since the start of the season.

I am not saying that he’s suddenly some saint. Far from, NONE of the characters on the show ever will be. What I am saying is that after re-watching the first two season recently, I have noticed that the show does an excellent job of giving us a villain, and then turning that villain into an ally again the next new villain or “bad guy.”

First it was Damon, who now helps fight all other bad guys, then the bad guy was Katherine who later helped to fight new bad guy Elijah, who then after being woken up, worked (at first) to stop new bad guy Klaus. All I’m saying is if they could do it with EVERY single “bad guy” we’ve had thus far, why couldn’t they do the same with Klaus.

My sister is convinced that they will find a way to kill Klaus before the end of the season. I think maybe they will find a way to bind his werewolf side again, or rather that’s what I’d like to happen because I don’t want him to be off the show.

I have grown fond of the actor who plays Klaus and think there is a high amount of potential for where the story lines can go from here.

When I tried to explain to my sister my view point on the topic she refused to even see it my way, and decided to inform me that as far as she was concerned I was suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, which really doesn’t even fit this situation at all!

Your thoughts?
