I never understand why kai always gets compared to lizzie and Josie other then them being siphoners and sharing blood they have nothing in common with the man
They didn't grow up in a coven filled with manipulation abuse and pressure to merge and kill their own sibling
Nor was they isolated away from their siblings out of hatred for having the ability to siphon
The Gemini coven had at least a century of hatred and lack of understanding of the ability to siphon their hatred was mentioned throughout kai arc and the heretics after
Kai has a mental illness that isn't comparable to lizzie because his was developed by years of Psychological abuse and possibly magical abuse because how else does anyone think Joshua probably Enforced the lack of touching throughout kai childhood and I imagine whenever kai was tempted he was Severely punished in some way shape or form I wish we got more in depth details about kai life before the vampire diaries there is so many unanswered questions about him and the Gemini coven and the Bennetts connection with them there was alot of wasted potential that will never be Rectified unfortunately

I know why but it’s very telling people define the Bennett’s as the weaker bloodline because they aren’t shown as combative as the other witch bloodlines. When none of the other witch bloodlines have any creations to their name.
This is a very short meta of my “the Bennett’s are just as capable of being ruthless” thoughts.

I loved your answer about the Bennetts and it makes me curious how you feel about how the originals show handles/barley mentions them
Honestly relieved.
Let's be honest, The Originals didn't handle POC characters any better than TVD did. So I know they would have handled it just as poorly. Don't even get me started on how the show treated Marcel and Vincent or any of the many women of color they killed off for the plot.
Now in reality (if the show was real), the Bennetts would have been all over New Orleans. The show really said the Bennetts were in the Americas before Europe had even invaded and then pretended that the Bennetts didn't have ties to nearly every coven in North America. We know they were focused in Salem until they were run out and found their way to Mystic Falls. But we also know they are often not found together and we see them in so many cities, so it would make sense that they would have ties to most of the covens. Especially in a city like New Orleans that is flooded with magic. The Bennetts would have found their way there at some point.
The Mikaelsons also have a long history with the Bennetts so even if the the Bennetts hadn't already been in New Orleans, I would think the Mikaelsons would have dragged them into their drama at some point. Now I could see the Bennett witches fleeing the city as soon as the Mikaelsons landed knowing they only bring pain to witches. But if the Bennetts had been there, they likely would have prevented the Mikaelsons from settling.
There were so many times throughout The Originals that they were stumped and the audience was yelling at the characters because Bonnie already solved these problems in TVD. Now I don't compare witch powers because the show is so inconsistent with power level that I don't think it's possible, but Bonnie was a powerful witch who would have been incredibly useful. A witch whom the Mikaelsons were all very aware of.
A couple of moments where I was expecting Bonnie to get dragged in or at least mentioned:
When Hope was sent with Rebekah. They said she was cloaked by a witch but the Mikaelsons didn't have a witch in the family yet. Who would they have trusted to do it? Who would be powerful enough to make the New Orleans coven/Esther unable to track her? I could see Klaus calling Bonnie up with all kinds of threats to cloak Hope.
When Freya was in the chambre and Hayley was trying to bring them back. She mentions she had a witch but doesn't name one. This would have been an easy moment to mention the Bennetts. After all, Hayley knows Bonnie and could have tried to plead with her to help. She could have at least started there.
The most ridiculous moment is at the end when they die to kill the Hollow, like Bonnie hasn't been creating worlds to trap souls in for years. Bonnie and Freya would have been a cool team-up moment at the end to save the day.
I do think it would be hard to explain why Bonnie was willing to help them at any point, but that goes for any witch. None of them wanted to help the Mikaelsons but did so for various reasons.
TVD created this long history of Bennett witches that constantly interacted with the Original family and yet were not mentioned once throughout their show. It just made no sense.
I don't ship Bonnie with any of the Mikaelsons for many reasons but I think it would have been such a good story to see her come to New Orleans and interact with Marcel, Davina, Vincent, etc. I think they would have welcomed her in as a fellow Mikaelson-anti and I really wanted to see Bonnie with more witch friends. They could have taught each other so much.
But personally, I wanted Bonnie and Enzo to leave the MFG behind and start their own life. I could see Bonnie bringing her distant relatives together and finally creating a home for the Bennett coven. She deserved that way more than continuing to get tied up in the vampire drama.
Thanks for asking! Bonnie is one of my favorite TVD characters and I don't talk about her nearly enough.

What is your thoughts on the Gemini and bennett arc ?
Hi! Thank you for the ask!
I wish the connection between the Bennetts and Geminis were more explored. We know Sheila helped the Gemini coven create the 1994 prison world, she mentored Jo as well, and we know both Bennett and Gemini covens both opposed the Travelers, but these things are never elaborated on. As i’ve stated in other rants, the Bennetts are quite literally connected to every main storyline. Yet, instead of developing these connections, they are discarded and never mentioned again once the writers are done using the Bennetts as plot devices to further other character’s stories.
The Parkers are given more lore and backstory than the Bennetts, yet are still under developed and aren’t relatively entertaining outside of Kai and his motivations. It would have been great if the writers furthered the Bennett-Parker lore through Bonnie and Kai. Instead we are given a vampire surrogate storyline that still baffles me.

I wish we learned more about kai and his family obviously there's alot of history of abuse why it's played down as a joke when it's clear kai and his siblings was abused in different ways the Gemini coven was horrible and it should have been mentioned they created what kai turned into and not just use this new narrative that kai was born this way and they are guilt free
First, can we just acknowledge that there' so much untapped, unexplored potential in the Gemini coven that it's literally obscene. This was the first interesting family, aspect of new lore, and potential antagonists that we'd got since The Originals debuted in s3 and the writers decided to just, figuratively, leave money on the table.
That said, I completely agree that the show wraps itself into pretzels when it both establishes that siphon discrimination and abuse is rampant throughout the coven... but at the same time, Kai was born evil. They hated his connection to Bonnie that much.

It never surprises me everytime I see these witch power comparisons which is a whole other Conversation that will be talked about later being made that bonnie and the Bennetts including qetsiyah are put below so below hope Esther and even Davina its almost as if these characters benefit from the Bennetts being erased from lore to Uplift these other witches
And it's been pointed out that nobody seems to compare hope to Davina or her own family or any other witches on the originals
But bonnie and her coven every five minutes there's some reason they are Reduced to just being witches who do nothing but Serve people and Channel magic as if they are the only witches who channel from their coven 🙄
And they make them out as if they are lesser then the originals witches I'm just soo disgusted by this message that the Bennetts are seen nothing when if it wasn't for the Bennetts to set up the lore there wouldn't have been any witches in this universe

Okay wtf did Legacies do to Kai Parker?? Like you're telling me THE KAI PARKER was running around playing hide and seek bc this random ripper girl was hunting him? Kai Murdered-His-Family Parker? Kai Leader-Of-The-Gemini-Coven Parker? Kai Went-Toe-to-Toe-With-Bonnie Parker?
I don't watch the show so this might be offbase but it doesn't even sound like Jade was all that older than Kai, the whole thing seems so ooc to me and I don't see why she'd stand a chance against him at all?

Imagine Bonnie never left Kai in the prison world. Instead, she goes to stab him, but changes her mind. What should have happened after?
TVD Imagine :
Ok, maybe I'm a little weird, but when people send me questions I end up writing a short imagine instead of answering.... So, here we go....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bonnie and Kai in 1903, searching for the ascendant.
_ No. They didn't hide the ascendant in a random pile of leaves....
He ponders a second.
_ We're not here to find the ascendant, are we ?
He hears Bonnie chuckle slightly behind his back.
_ Despite being a sociopathic murderer, I've always known you were pretty clever.
Kai turns around, now facing her. She's just pulled a knife out of her coat, staring at him with what he knows are murderous eyes. He watches her carefully, up and down, saving the image in his memory. Then, he extends his arms, confident.
_ Do it.
Bonnie gives him an incredulous look.
_ You're not gonna defend yourself ? Make up excuses about becoming a better man ? Find the ascendant and leave on your own ?
Kai lowers his arms, exhaling loudly.
_ Look, I know you hate me for stabbing you and leaving you for dead in 1994. But I thought maybe saving you from killing yourself would have earned me some points on the good side.
The revelation takes her by suprise.
_ Wait. What do you mean 'saving' me ?
Her murderous expression has been replaced with blatant confusion.
_ What part don't you understand ? You think that garage door just opened by itself ?
Bonnie's wide-eyed.
_ How do you....
She's too stunned to finish her sentence. How does he know ?
There's silence for a moment. Kai doesn't talk for once, he's waiting for her to realise.... After a while, Bonnie huffs to herself, disbelieving.
_ You're telling me that you opened that door ?
_ Well, technically, Jeremy did. But I was the one doing the spell so he could push that switch.
Bonnie's completely baffled. Her friends hadn't mentioned any of it. But that's Kai telling the story. That could be another one of his manipulation.
_ Let's say I believe you. Explain it to me, what happened.
Kai claps his hands, enthusiastic.
_ Ok, story time. Feels like these YouTube videos.
He slightly grins, though when he notices the look on Bonnie's face his smile quickly fades.
_ Damon and Elsa told me...
_ Elena.
He frowns a second, then remembers.
_ Oh. So, Damon and...her, they told me it was your birthday. I felt bad, so I decided to help them, and Jeremy, send you a message. You were about to drink that bottle of bourbon, but I lost connection. It required too much magic to handle four people on my own. Then I tried to send only Jeremy back. That's when it got messy.
_ What do you mean ?
_ You see, when I merged with Luke and he died, Liv was really upset about it. She came to kill me while I was doing the spell. We got in a little bit of a fight. I couldn't get myself to kill her. I was almost there but something just....
_ Kai.
He looks at her. She wears that "get to the point" expression on her face. Kai pauses a second.
_ Right.... Anyway, fight ends. I'm bleeding, like crazy. Jeremy still wants me to send him back. I'm basically dying at that point, but I'm feeling generous so I send us back to you. He follows you to the garage. Of course I follow him. After your "I'm too strong to let myself die" speech, the guy manages some ghosty shit to push the door switch and bam ! Bonster lives !
She's basically speechless. Still unsure of the truthfulness of his words, but that tale seemed too genuine to be a lie.
_ I almost died on a kitchen floor. I had Damon's blood in my mouth !
Kai makes a disgusted face.
_ I mean thanks bro, but not again-
_ What did I say ?
_ Huh ?
Kai's stopped in his rambling.
_ If all you say is true. What did I say in that video ?
_ Which part ? The one about 'going weeks without speaking' ? Or when you talk about missing restaurants ?
Bonnie can't believe it. He's saying the truth. He did come for her. And he nearly died doing so. There's no denying it....
_ I get your point about restaurant. Food tastes different when you're not the one making it. Although I like to cook.... Am I digressing again ?
In her amazement, she manages to roll her eyes at him.
_ Anyway, I did help saving you.
He wants to come closer but the knife in her hand holds him back. She finally speaks again.
_ It doesn't change what you did to me.
Kai stares at the ground, defeated, before looking back at her.
_ I know, and I'm sorry for all of that. I said I've changed. I cannot erase what I've done in the past.
They both stay silent for a while until Bonnie lets out a breath she's been holding for god knows how long. She pulls the knife back in her pocket.
_ So, you're giving me another chance ?
_ No. All you get is a pass. I let you live. When we get back home, you get the hell out of my life. For good.
He doesn't answer.
_ We gotta find the ascendant.
Bonnie walk past him, heading to the true location of the object.
Kai just nods, following her. She's not forgiving him. She's not giving him a chance. But she's changed her mind about ending his life. It means there's hope. That's the reason a smile grows on his face while he walks on the snow, following in her steps....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thoughts ? 🩷💀
So.... Maybe I should try to answer for real.
After that "I give you a pass" moment, I guess we get to the Salvatore mummy.
When they're all back home, Bonnie explains to Damon why she didn't ditch Kai there. Damon doesn't really care. He got what he wanted out of it anyway.
Kai sort of leaves them after, while still being close enough, his Bonnie obsession still in mind. He doesn't go to Portland. Not now. He can go on his conven slaughter plan later. I see him just enjoy little things. Going to the movies pretty much every day. Catching up on 2000's music he's missed.
On the other side, Lillian manages to get her bunch of Heretics back. I don't know how, don't ask, just accept it happens.
Then, I suspect it all goes wild as it did in season 7. Except they realise they could use some help (aka Kai). They can't admit it. Don't search for him. But I absolutely picture Kai showing up on his own at a doorstep one day with a proper "Miss me ?". He's aware of the shit that's been happening and decided to 'help'. Obviously it's not free. He wants another chance from Bonnie or whatever.
Anyway, he somehow becomes part of the gang. Like a guy you don't want around but know he's useful so you bear with his presence. Bonnie is absolutely not pleased by that but acknowledges his usefulness and later efforts in helping them.
Then the Heretics stuff, the Armory, Rayna Cruz....
Bonkai happens ? (And not Bonenzo, sad but we make a choice here). I don't know how but Kai must really get on her good side. Since she truly got traumatised by what happened in the prison world. Some important event has to occur for her to properly 'forgive' him. Saving people she loves. Saving her again. Just, sassy sociopath who merged with empathetic and loving Luke, now doing good ? And just Bonnie and Kai's magic working together with an upper connection would be Oh My GOD !!
Jo lives so does her twins. And Caroline has another story than being pregnant with another woman's magical babies. Alaric is happy with his wife and children. And maybe this will prevent him from doing some fucked up shit in Legacies (I didn't watch it but I've read some stuff).
Gemini coven ? They can't kill Kai otherwise they will all die themselves. There's a sort of truce ? You don't hurt us, we don't hurt you ? And hum, even Kai doesn't technically want Jo or Liv dead anymore, nor does the Luke part in him. Kai abandoned his desire to murder them all ?
Meaning we still got Liv and Tyler. I want them to be happy together. Liv is free from the merge. Tyler did not have to trigger the malediction by suffocating his girlfriend. They get the hell out of town and have a life of their own.
Maybe there'll be a little story line about ending the Gemini coven thing. They'll try to break the merge tradition shit in some sort of way. If Kai ever happens to have children he would never want them to go through what he did.
Btw, I want to see Kai with his siphon niece. He would be so good !
....
I don't know if it's a proper answer, but that's mine. So bear with it. 🙃😅
Also, spent all night writing this instead of sleeping.... It's 6:40 now....
Hey ! Anonymous person ! I hope it was alright, you enjoyed the short story and the answer I gave. 🤞💜

Bonkai fics:
These are very good fics in my opinion. The first one isn't done yet, the author said that the second/final chapter should be out by the end of the month (fingers crossed), and the second one was a masterpiece; chefs kiss!!
Please send some bonkai fics you'd like to share, I've been looking everywhere for more.

Bonnie can't seem to find the crazed siphon Gemini coven leader Kai. Maybe he's sending her on a wild goosechase.
