( damon can make a million jokes about sam's boytoys, but really, he knows he's probably one of them, now. it's hard not to love sam, for all the same reasons it was hard not to love elena, and that part of damon's heart is irrevocably spoken for, but there's a growing part that's just for sam, too. he's what elena could be, if she grew up and shed all the things that make her afraid to be herself, and maybe it's unfair for damon to latch onto sam for that reason, but... well, it is what it is. sam is his own person, and damon likes him for him just as much. )
