"Vampire Diaries" Cast Reads Fan Fiction Excerpts

What better way to get through the dreaded Vampire Diaries mid-season hiatus than with a little fanfiction?

When we visited the Atlanta set of the series a couple of months ago, we asked the cast to read some colorful fan-written stories about their characters. Of course, we didn’t just serve up the usual Delena/Stelena fare. Instead, we scoured the Web for fanfics dedicated to the show’s most under-served (read: non-existent) pairings, like say Elena and Alaric (R.I.P) or Caroline and Rebekah (shippers, we know you’re out there!).

Watch the video below to see Nina Dobrev, Candice Accola, Zach Roerig and Michael Trevino read fanfiction (while trying very hard to keep a straight face).

Cringing, and cackling

This show properly recognizes online fandom, which is just..I dont know what it means. I must have seen some commercial for an episode and they had quotes from message boards rather then like reviews lol

"Quotes from message boards rather then reviews".

Oh my, are you sure? Because that's ..yeah.
prophecypro 14th-Dec-2012 04:37 pm (UTC)
Yeah I saw it on one of the promos they had. I was like what the fuck is this. Fuck this show even more.
shining_starsxx 14th-Dec-2012 05:14 pm (UTC)
Yeah the CW does stuff like that.

This gives me so much second hand embarrassment for everyone involved.
pikapika217 14th-Dec-2012 03:43 pm (UTC)
LMAO - Can you imagine Dylan or either Tyler reading some of the Teen Wolf fanfics? Sterek has almost reached 3k fics XD
kiki3291 14th-Dec-2012 04:47 pm (UTC)
You mean it's already reached 6k. At least on AO3. Which is insane, I don't think I've ever seen a fandom reach that kind of amount in such a short span.
fred2265 14th-Dec-2012 05:17 pm (UTC)
LOL.
mundodeamor 14th-Dec-2012 05:53 pm (UTC)
OT, but is Hoechlin dating Haylie Duff??
pikapika217 14th-Dec-2012 05:55 pm (UTC)
IDK.

I'm torn between being annoyed if she is indeed hitting that or happy for her if she is indeed hitting that. hmm

OMG LMAO
shining_starsxx 14th-Dec-2012 05:16 pm (UTC)
I loved this part. I hope she doesn't find the Elena/Katherine stuff.
brightstarmara 14th-Dec-2012 05:53 pm (UTC)
Nina looked SO awkward reading that. I don't blame her.
ben_superdetka 14th-Dec-2012 09:20 pm (UTC)
Nina is so pretty, i kind of miss watching VD
honeebs 14th-Dec-2012 10:18 pm (UTC)
LOL this shit.
killing me haha
chikntetrazzini 14th-Dec-2012 03:46 pm (UTC)
The Tyler one was the best. And by best, I mean it made me the most uncomfortable.
illustratedd 14th-Dec-2012 03:47 pm (UTC)
there are somethings you should keep separate from the real world :|
pseudo_nom 14th-Dec-2012 03:48 pm (UTC)
there's a fourth wall for a reason.
theratwhispers 14th-Dec-2012 03:49 pm (UTC)
I can't with this. Fan-fiction is an embarrassing hobby that most people outgrow. But people in fandom already have no filters, I have had to remove young people from Facebook because they are posting fan-fiction pr0ns they wrote on their public walls and squeeing together in front of everybody. There are no boundaries any more.
benicebitch 14th-Dec-2012 03:55 pm (UTC)
I don't even know the people you're talking about and I feel so much secondhand embarrassment. :/

theratwhispers 14th-Dec-2012 03:57 pm (UTC)
It was really painful to watch. There are fandom people just posting everything all openly on their Facebook walls now. I know these people in real life, and I am related to one. Seeing them in person, now that I know their sexual fantasies, I really DO NOT WANT.
chandyland11 14th-Dec-2012 04:03 pm (UTC)
"Fan-fiction is an embarrassing hobby that most people outgrow."

There is absolutely nothing wrong with fanfiction when it is done correctly and done respectfully.
mynamehere07 14th-Dec-2012 04:03 pm (UTC)
I know fanfic is often treated like a dirty little secret. I don't read it and am neutral about it; read/write whatever you want, it don't matter to me. But I think posting it to Facebook is cringey and too TMI for real life, because it's mostly family, friends and coworkers.
ljubavirakija 14th-Dec-2012 04:04 pm (UTC)
On Facebook? Yikes. That's pretty cringing.

I would never post that type of shit on FB because it would be embarrassing as fuck
theblackwidow 14th-Dec-2012 04:07 pm (UTC)
lol I remember this story.
kurtvonnegut 14th-Dec-2012 04:24 pm (UTC)
lol ita. i remember when fandom used to be at least vaguely embarrassing and you didn't go around telling people about it and now people think it's completely normal to have conversations about what toilet paper brand tertiary character #34 probably used.
lexiesloan 14th-Dec-2012 04:47 pm (UTC)
I write a ton of fanfiction and I'm in my 20s :(
mai_shiranui 14th-Dec-2012 05:10 pm (UTC)
Thank the lord that I've never seen anything like that. That's just plain wrong.

I have seen people tweet RPish stuff to celebs though. Another one of those things that's just plain wrong.
rollogreb 14th-Dec-2012 05:29 pm (UTC)
I don't agree. Some people like to write/tell stories as an outlet/hobby, I don't see what's weird about it and why there should be a certain age at which you need to stop because it is otherwise 'embarrassing'.

Not all fanfiction equal 'My Immortal'.

Though breaking the fourth wall is fucking annoying. And not only that, it is always done by people with shitty fanfiction.
brightstarmara 14th-Dec-2012 05:58 pm (UTC)
Agreed with everything but the embarrassing part. I don't think it's that bad at all, but I do think it depends on the genre wether or not I'd want people to know what I'm reading and/or writing.

I like boundaries though. A lot. Posting your private information online is just plain stupid, but most people don't think about that.
ladygawain 14th-Dec-2012 03:50 pm (UTC)
Horrifying tbqh.
blrocks 14th-Dec-2012 03:51 pm (UTC)
I want to watch it but at the same time I like to avoid feeling secondhand embarrassment.
shanzer22 14th-Dec-2012 04:01 pm (UTC)
It's not that bad lol
just444 14th-Dec-2012 03:51 pm (UTC)
I can't even watcht this, too much second hand embarrassment
tobesurrounded 14th-Dec-2012 03:52 pm (UTC)
lol i can't believe fanfiction is becoming so mainstream.

Zach has a really nice voice though.
ladywilde80 14th-Dec-2012 03:57 pm (UTC)
I know! I liked it so much better when it was like this secret underground cult
shanzer22 14th-Dec-2012 04:01 pm (UTC)
I love Zach's voice.
demented_21 14th-Dec-2012 04:08 pm (UTC)
mte, I love his voice too. Mmm.
zness 14th-Dec-2012 04:09 pm (UTC)
mte -- it's really weird tbh
therearewords 14th-Dec-2012 04:38 pm (UTC)
This is only dipping a toe in, to be honest.

Let me see media squeal over Alpha/Omega stories and mpreg and I will reconsider "mainstream".
brightstarmara 14th-Dec-2012 05:59 pm (UTC)
Maybe he could do a reading for 50 shits of blah.
ben_superdetka 14th-Dec-2012 09:23 pm (UTC)
for some reason i think he might be a decent stage actor
michelleantonia 15th-Dec-2012 11:36 am (UTC)
CAME IN HERE TO SAY THIS

He slurs like he's constantly wasted but its HOT wtf LOL
complaining 14th-Dec-2012 03:53 pm (UTC)
Ngl, I was cringing through the whole thing. But those fanfictions sounded pretty mild, as far as fanfictions go.
sweetestbliss1 15th-Dec-2012 12:57 am (UTC)
I really doubt they would have given them the explicit ones to read lol
ladywilde80 14th-Dec-2012 03:57 pm (UTC)
back when I wrote fan fic this would have been my worst nightmare...
