stefan and damon

Love and sacrifice are also common themes. Stefan and Damon both love Elena deeply and are willing to make sacrifices for her. This could range from giving up their own power to save her life. And there's also the theme of redemption. Damon, who has a darker past, might be on a path of redemption because of Elena's influence. He tries to be a better person, which creates an interesting dynamic in the fanfics.

One common theme is love triangles. Since it involves Damon, Stefan and an OC, often there's a complex love situation. For example, the OC might be attracted to both brothers in different ways.

One common theme is loyalty. Their status as mates often means they have to be loyal to each other no matter what challenges they face, like in many fanfics where other vampires try to break their bond. Another theme is sacrifice. They might sacrifice their own desires or safety for the sake of their mate.

Well, 'Fate's Intervention' is also worth checking out. It presents a unique take on the Stefan - Elena - Damon relationship. The story is filled with emotional moments and some great character development. It shows how their relationships could have evolved under different circumstances, which is really fascinating for fans of the trio.

One common theme is love triangle. Since Bonnie, Damon and Stefan are all connected in the Vampire Diaries universe, the love triangle between them is often explored. It creates a lot of drama and tension.

One great fanfiction is 'Damon and Stefan: The Lost Bond'. It delves deep into their complex relationship, exploring their past and how it shapes their present actions in the show. It has some really interesting twists on their character development.

There's also 'A New Beginning for the Brothers'. This fanfic takes an interesting turn by exploring what would happen if Damon and Stefan had to start anew in a different town. It has a lot of character development and some really heart - wrenching moments between the two brothers.

There could be a story where Damon is poisoned by a vampire hunter's weapon. Stefan, upon finding out, immediately starts looking for an antidote. He scours the town, asking for help from other vampires and witches he trusts. Stefan doesn't rest until he finds the antidote and saves Damon, showing his strong protective side.

One popular theme is redemption. Many fanfictions explore Damon's journey towards redemption, with Stefan often playing a crucial role in it. For example, there are stories where Damon tries to make up for his past wrongs because of Stefan's influence.

I really like 'Stefan and Damon: The Lost Years'. It fills in the gaps of what happened during the years that weren't fully shown in the show. The fanfic writer has a great understanding of the characters. Damon's sarcasm and Stefan's brooding nature are perfectly captured, and it also adds some interesting new characters that interact with them in a very engaging way.
