He feels like he’s made of strings, slowly unweaving, pulling him in too many directions.
The first tug comes when he’s lying in the ground in the Lockwood cellar, full of wooden bullets and half-unconscious from the vervain they’ve pumped into him, and his head is tilted just enough to see her enter the room, a flash of light spinning around all of them, attacking without second thought, as if she was made for this. She’s giving so much up by being here, and it’s all to save him and he doesn’t even deserve it. But of course, it’s for Stefan too. Stefan only, he tells himself, if he’s being honest.
Still, he defends her to her mother automatically, vouches for the Caroline that still exists inside the vampire. And yet he remembers her today in the cellar, and wonders how someone could be so perfectly both: human and monster, the best of each. How Caroline Forbes could walk that tight-rope of a line so easily, when he’s been trying and failing for a hundred and forty-five years

Of course he’s only there to talk about Tyler. The Werewolf Problem. He’s still very much aware that he’s in her bedroom once more, and he quite remembers the other times that were spent in this very room. Or rather, mostly, the other sort of things that were done in this room, between them, besides this talking they’re doing.
He certainly wouldn’t mind an encore, but-
Amber eyes with golden highlights? Really? She makes it sound like something out of a romance novel and maybe it’s that thought that makes him really emphasize that she should stay away from Tyler.
Freakin’ Lockwood, who would have thought.
Tug.
She stays with him - stays with freakin’ Lockwood - through the entire full moon, and he doesn’t know what makes him angrier, the idea that she was in so much danger or the idea that she cares so goddamn much about this guy, but either way, he’s ready to rip some heads off

Wow. So, so, so, so perfect.
I love Damon's reflective thoughts in this, how he is able to rationalize right up until the end. And I adore the talk of puppets and puppet masters. That always has been a favorite analogy of mine. And the 'tug's.

After Blondie’s little session of torture a few weeks back, Damon had wanted to go over and make sure she was okay-take stock of things. She was his child after all, he had that right. Or, he thought he did
