I already said I'm so thrilled to see you vidding again, Maria! Now, I stopped watching this show a while ago, but as I understand it, Kol (who died in TVD) somehow came back to life in a different body? I already like the new actor from Teen Wolf, so I think it's cool. I like how you showed how significant Kol's family is to him, and the witch he is in love with (forgot her name), wonderful lyric use as well! Love this song. Great job! Can't wait to see more from you

Kol had such a sad storyline in the Originals and you captured it well in this video.

This was such a great song for him. "always a party of 3". I stopped a while back watching and my hubby loves this show so, now I think its time I add this on my play list. Amazing edits!

Jemma, thanks so much for the great feedback! I'm glad you were able to check this vid out even though you've stopped watching the shows. (I've quit TVD, but am pretty enthusiastic with The Originals.) And OMG, yes, you hit the nail on the head with Kol's plotline! Smart girl!

I started watching Teen Wolf because of Daniel Sharman's work in the Originals. Now I'm hooked on that too.

Yes, I definitely wanted to show how much Kol wanted his family to accept him. It's kind of funny how he and Klaus are essentially the same in that regard, but the siblings always gravitated toward Klaus and not Kol. It was really great to see Kol come into his own and slowly gather his loved ones again in The Originals. I'm also happy to hear the lyrics worked even if you didn't understand the scenes 100%.

I am making a Kol/Davina (that witch he dated) vidette now actually.

Thank you again, sweetie!

Becca, he really DID have such a bittersweet storyline in both shows, I think. At least in the Originals, he was comforted by the remaining pieces of those that loved him. That was inspirational enough for me to vid it and give him tribute. Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you liked it.

Nikki, I think the Originals is definitely one of those shows that always finds a way to pique your interest whether it's a Big Bad or just family drama (because the Mikaelsons have 1000 years worth of it!) I'm glad you liked the vid enough to make you consider revisiting the show! Thanks for the lovely comment!

I have never seen either The Vampire Diaries or The Originals but I thought this was a good character study.
