Oh, I was thinking this, too! It would make a lot of sense and would lead to quite intersting developments. And when I say interesting developments I mean Damon and Elena before everything else *g*
It also fits with what I read in an interview with Julie Plec. I'm not going to quote it here because I'm not sure if you want to be "spoiled". It's rather vague, but let me know if you want a link.

No, I read it. It just confirmed this theory of mine, LOL!

Ah ok, even better then :D

It's amazing the stuff that we come up with when we talk. :)

And I agree with your theory. I hope Tyler bites him somewhere that will require Damon to be shirtless during his recovery.

That sounds like a good theory! Damon has been the one who has shown the most concern about the vampires vs. werewolves thing so it would make sense (though I could also see Caroline being bit).

I'm beginning to think it's not going to be that now though because of the number of people who've said that they were thinking on it too. So maybe it will be Caroline? Hmm....

Great theory! Having Damon be bitten by Tyler works well for the storyline seeing as how he's is the one who ripped Mason's heart out. I think that Damon "dying" or coming damn close to it is going to be the catalyst for some major Damon/Elena happenings. That's the stuff that epic love stories are made of :)

You want Stefan do go all badass and go after Tyler, but me, I want to see Caroline do the same thing. Granted Damon was an ass to her when she was human, but I see the potential for a great friendship. I mean, he and Stefan have both taken Sassy Vamp under their wing.

I agree on all counts, but considering I'm seeing enough people reply saying they were thinking the same thing, I'm beginning to question it now, LOL! But if it does happen, I see so much possibility.

As for your wish with Caroline, I think they're building up Tyler and Caroline too much at this point for her to want to go after him, but some conflict would be pretty cool!

Wow, I've been totally out of the loop with the spoilers.
I don't know where this interview comes from but...
I LOVE your speculations. Now I want this to happen into the show, that'd be incredibly awesome.

The interview is pretty dang vague, it just talks about there being consequences to Tyler turning in ep 11, and Damon not knowing about Caroline telling Tyler the vampire stuff will have consequences.

Yes, after reading your post I got too curious and looked around until I found it. I have to say that I agree with you. I'm thinking... either him or Rose will get bitten (although the Damon option would be more interesting by far)
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. i love spoilers :p

The idea of Tyler biting Damon has been circling in my head since 2x03, glad you think it's possible too! I'm thinking it is very plausible for the midseason cliffhanger.

Right, so now I'm thinking we're wrong because too many people seem to have been thinking of it too, LOL! But it would be so awesome if it happens. Also, my sister said that if they do go that route, she expects another twist on top of it.

Hey, it might not be Tyler who bites Damon, but that new girl Jules who I'm sure is so gonna be a werewolf too. Who knows? We'll see. But it sure is fun to speculate.

I was sorta-kinda thinking this, too. The writers just don't throw things out there randomly, everything serves a purpose. So, when it was said in episode 2.03 that a werewolf bite could kill a vampire, I figured one of our vamps would eventually be bitten. It makes perfect sense that it would be Damon and that this would be the mid-seasion cliffhanger.

If this is, indeed, the case, then I wonder how it comes about? I really hope that it's not a case of Damon trying to protect Elena because, honestly, the whole "protect Elena" thing is wearing a little thin for me. Even Elena, herself, is growing weary of it. However, how it happens is of less importance to me than how Elena reacts to it. Will she feel responsible because it was somehow her fault? Guilty because he could die without the two of them having resolved their issues? Confused because his complusion didn't work, and she may never have the opportunity to explore her true feelings for him? Sad because someone who had been her friend could be gone forever?

Since everything serves a purpose, I can't help recalling Damon's reaction in "Rose" when Stefan said he'd been drinking Elena's blood. Will Damon's wolf bite require a little sip of Elena's blood to help him feel all better? Or would that be too over-the-top since Elena gave Stefan her blood after he was vampnapped last season?

The numerous possibilities make my head spin! But, as someone else mentioned, we can certainly hope for a shirtless Damon. His bare chest just makes everything better. :)

Oh, Jen...sorry, but I never asked if it's okay for me to post directly to your journal. If you'd rather I not, just let me know.

Hah, a lot of people have said they were thinking on it too, so, yeah, I'm kinda questioning it now cuz this show likes to the twists.


I really hope that it's not a case of Damon trying to protect Elena

It never even crossed my mind that it would be in saving Elena, I was thinking it would be more a trap set up by that Jules chick. Still, I never get tired of Damon saving Elena because I think it helps to build this foundation between them. I mean, Damon saves her 9 out of 10 times over Stefan, and the fact that Damon does it pretty durn selflessly knowing that he gets nothing out of it continues to show the good in him. Furthermore, it also I think keeps the possibility open of someone calling Elena on how she does almost expect Damon to always be there to save her, be there for her, etc. just like she does Stefan. Intentional or not, she certainly does take some solace in the fact that she's got both Salvatore brothers to protect her.

Will Damon's wolf bite require a little sip of Elena's blood to help him feel all better?

I've been impatiently waiting for the time to come when Damon needs Elena's blood, and what I'm holding onto is that Stefan has yet to actually bite into Elena to get the blood. I know that seems like a small thing, but I think a huge part of the "sexual" aspect of the blood-sharing is the biting -- think of Vicki and Damon, and Damon with the sorority girls. Elena has never experienced that aspect of it, only the pain of cutting herself and then Stefan taking from her; it hasn't been a mutual moment. And we may likely not see that simply because there's the real possibility that Stefan won't be able to stop himself if he does the biting.

Or would that be too over-the-top since Elena gave Stefan her blood after he was vampnapped last season?

I don't think so because it only happened the once like that; it's not overused at all, and has *never* been used for Damon yet.

I never asked if it's okay for me to post directly to your journal. If you'd rather I not, just let me know.

Of course it's not a problem. I post to get discussion/thoughts from others who are fans of whatever fandom I'm talking about. I wish I had more active TVD (DE/Damon) people on my flist for more discussion.

*is spoiled*

Aw man, well obv he's gonna live. So I guess that's reassuring. Cause killing damon means killing a quater of the tvd fandom. I'm excited for tvd to come back.. PERIOD.

Elena knows she wants to tap that.. she needs to stop fighting it. hahaha

Yeah, of course, he'll live, LOL! Can't have the show without Damon.
