Executive producer Julie Plec has offered some teasers about the rest of the Vampire Diaries season, which starts airing in a month! Beware of spoilers.
In a Zap2It interview, Julie talks about where they’re taking Elena and Damon next season. While Elena began to move on from Stefan in the mid-season finale, Damon will still be feeling the loss of his little brother:
When we come back from hiatus, Damon is doing what Damon does best when someone pisses him off: He’s day-drinking. He’s seen neither hide nor hair of Stefan since he ruined their plan and got his freedom from Klaus, and Damon and Elena are kind of spiraling a little bit. They don’t know where he is or why he betrayed them. All they know is that he has completely screwed them over and they have to move on.
As for Delena’s romantic tension, look for that to increase (can we say yay already?!):
When we come back in episode 10, Elena and Damon are finding themselves in these moments where the romantic tension is a little bit deeper and the physical tension is a little bit hotter. They have to work together against Klaus, so they keep finding themselves in these moments that they’re now both free to act on, without guilt.
Well, one thing is them being free to act on their chemistry, another is whether they actually will! Do you think Damon and Elena will be getting together, or will something else get in the way?
Finally, Julie teases the direction they are taking Klaus’ and Stefan’s characters:
We have not seen the worst of Klaus. We also have not seen the worst of Stefan taking on Klaus. One of the fun things we’re doing when we come back in January is taking the pissing contest — I guess that’s the best term for it — between Stefan and Klaus to a whole other level. Watching these powerful characters and these powerful actors go head-to-head is going to be awesome. […] We start to see this manipulation that Klaus has in the town of Mystic Falls, and now that Stefan’s pushing back, Klaus is able to step forward and say, ‘Hey, I’m not here to cause a problem! Stefan Salvatore is the problem.’
