Legacies has spent 3 seasons focusing on Landon and Hope’s love story, so it’s surprising to see the ending seemingly confirming that they can’t have sex.
Despite The originals derived series Legacies Focusing on the duo’s love story for most of their three seasons, the show’s season 3 finale has pretty much confirmed that their heroine Hope and love interest Landon will never be able to have sex. Debuting in 2018, Legacies is the second spin-off of the CW smash hit The vampire diaries. Continuing the story of the show’s first spin-off, The originals, Legacies follows the students of the Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted, each of whom has a paranormal power that they are beginning to discover.
At least, that’s the plot of Legacies In theory. In practice, the series has received criticism from fans for focusing primarily on the story of LegaciesHeroine Hope and her struggling dude love interest Landon at the expense of delivering compelling subplots to the show’s supporting cast. What makes this all the more unfortunate is the fact that as of the end of season 3, Legacies He has apparently confirmed that Landon and Hope will never be able to have sex.

The reasoning for this was not explicitly described in the show, but the tradition of Legacies makes it a pretty inescapable conclusion. Even if Legacies He seemed to briefly forget this fact between seasons 1 and 3, Hope is able to heal people thanks to her unique set of supernatural abilities. The season 3 finale saw Hope attempt to use this power to save Clarke’s life, but the character kindly pointed out that her blood is likely toxic to him, as he is Malivore’s son. Landon is also the son of Malivore (and a phoenix / human), so it stands to reason that Hope’s blood is toxic to him as well. By this logic, the rest of her would likely be quite unsafe for Landon’s health and well-being if they became too intimate, meaning the pair cannot merge without risking her life.
This reveal could be crushing news for some Hope / Landon fans, so much so because the series has focused on their love story over the rest of its subplots. Legacies has repeatedly put other characters’ stories aside to bring the series back to Landon and Hope, and learning that the pair can never be together (intimately, at least) is a strange way to end the never-ending story. That said, not all hope is lost for the couple. For one thing, Hope has yet to tap into the vampire part of her powers (or at least the full extent of it), which means there’s no way for viewers to know if her blood will always be toxic to Landon forever. On the other hand, the pair have at least canonically kissed without incident, meaning that at least some bodily fluids can be safely exchanged with each other.
Furthermore, the fact that the duo are apparently unable to be intimate together gives Hope and Landon a compelling reason to permanently part ways or commit to each other regardless of this outcome, which would put an end to their repetitive “will-them” . -not-them ”dynamic. Legacies He has recently started to develop Landon’s story further, and forcing him and Hope to compromise or resign while addressing the question of their potentially dangerous intimacy could eventually make the series grow out of this plot (or make the story so convincing as it sounds). was in the early days of the show). Regardless, the news that Hope and Landon can’t necessarily have sex could be the origin of Legacies or at least spell out the end of the show’s longest-running story to date.
