Certainly her amazing ability to not know things even when everyone in the world is telling her right to her face becomes a major character point in seaon 3 anyway.
THIS MAKES ME VERY EXCITED, OMG.
I really like your interpretation of denial a lot. I can certainly buy it, and will be using it in my headcanon henceforth, thank you :). I can even see that as intentional, but I still remain twitchy at the sense that we're not supposed to fault her for it either, or place responsibility for the consequences of it near her...and that's more my issue with the way her character is framed than anything else. The more I talk about it, though, the more comfortable I become reading Elena through the lens of Unreliable Narrator, though.
Also, OMG BONNIE ICON. <3 <3 <3 <3 If I ever do end up vidding this show my first vid will be Bonnie because I LOVE HER SO MUCH I CANNOT TEXTUALLY RENDER IT. I suspect my next tl;dr babbling post about this show will focus on her if I can find intelligent ways to express this that aren't BONNIE, BONNIE, BONNIE.
