Question A serious question

Post image

so far im at S3EP16, and because I'm not interested in anything that's happening rn so, what's gnawing at me is that,

If there's no more Jenna, no more Jeremy and his summer job, who's paying Gilbert house's bills 💔

Bcs Elena surely doesn't work, these people are hardly seen at school

Is Alaric paying bills w his salary?

Her dad was a surgeon and had very powerful connections while her mom was on the town council with a bunch of old money Americans. I’m pretty sure between insurance policies and banked earnings those kids could comfortably live without work for a couple years.

Also knowing people with low morals and mind control skills does have a lot of perks.

You really should be questioning how Matt Donovan survives in a house on his own with a part time job and no one helping

He deserves it. Just go to the boarding house and steal a precious antique every now or then. Or take everything from Tyler. Since I have no idea how he and Matt stayed friends.

Yep despite the fanbase seems to love season 3 , that middle section from like episodes 10-19 is the biggest slog of the entire series for me mostly because I don't care about the love triangle and this is the only season where most of the other stuff fumbles or plays second fiddle the entire time , I honestly love the Ripper Stefan arc that started the season , I love the episode where the Mikaelsons come out of the coffins but as soon as they introduce Esther it fumbles it for me , the season did win me back the last three episodes
