How’s Stefan dealing with that porch kiss?

For me, I’m brokenhearted about the kiss between Damon and Elena. Because as sociopathic and malicious as he is, and maybe a murderer, he knows that I love him. It’s the worst insult. At this point Stefan doesn’t empathize as much or care. He’s more like, You know what, I’m not going to deal with this guy.

Does it change his feelings for Elena?

Elena, Elena, Elena. He loves her. It’s sort of a transformation. He’s coming to terms with himself, season two is a lot more about acceptance. This is what I am. He’s going to do other things. Laugh, be jovial.

Now that Katherine has said she’s back for Stefan, is he interested?

It’s a mix, he thought he was in love with Katherine at one point, she’s the person who is responsible for his immortality. It’s heavy. He meets her with disgust and at the same time a little bit of interest.

What do you want for Stefan?

I love not necessarily the dark side, I love that as well, but I like Stefan to have other tactics other than victimized and accepting the burden. And be more proactive.

The Vampire Diaries at Comic-Con: What You Missed

Paul on Stefan accepting his vampire ways: “I think it’s a thing that will never escape him.” Kevin: “One of the things that Stefan will come to terms with is the fact that he’s a vampire, which includes drinking blood.”

The cast on the stories they want for their characters…

Paul: “I enjoyed so much indulging in the blood. I don’t want Stefan to be as confused, and I want him to make decision to indulge in blood and take part in maniacal activity once in awhile to fulfill that vampire need. [Beat.] I don’t know what I’m talking about. [Laughs.] I would love to do a flashback of Stefan dancing to really bad 80s music and just having fun.”
