— It's not like I want to die. I just... don't think I was meant to exist in the first place. I think about all the crazy things that led to me being born. Dad lives 1000 years, does weird ritual to become the only vampire who can procreate. Mom moves from foster home to foster home... to end up in Mystic Falls. When Dad got sad and drunk... had a one-nighter with Mom, who was basically hate-banging him. Then, boom. Loophole. Miracle baby. But can you be a miracle and a mistake at the same time?
— No one is a mistake, Hope.
