Favorite Moments from Vampire Academy Season One

Bleeding Cool: So, do you have a favorite moment for this current season?

Liner: I loved when we went to Saragossa, and we were shooting an episode before hiatus. We were blocked from shooting. That was the first time I got to work with Dani.

Nieves: Oh, with [director Jesse [Warn] on [episodes] four and five.

Liner: We had a cat running around everywhere. Sisi fell in love with a stray cat. It was a beautiful thing. We were all together in that one episode.

Nieves:: We had an acapella group, remember? I feel like shooting-wise, as an actor, four and five were a lot of fun when we were invoking the haunted ghosts of Belchite.

Stringer: An acapella group, and we only do "Billie Jean."

Nieves: Storywise, I was excited to get into the whole "Shadow Kiss" thing with Rose.

Stringer: I liked the boxing fight. That was good and fun. I also liked the breakup scene. When we're at the door, and you're like…

Nieves: Oh yeah!

Stringer: "I killed you. Sorry you died." I can't do this anymore. I'll see you later. What?! [laughs]

Nieves: That was a good moment, and we break up more than once.

Liner: Hey, y'all break up more than we break up.

Stringer: Were we ever really together?

Liner: Don't stop on my heart anymore.

Stringer: I'm so sorry. I don't know what to say, babe, but I love you. We do break a lot. Me and daddy break up a lot. It's not nice, but we're always at a definitive moment where they're pivoting, and something is always changing. It's indicative of the entire story [laughs]

Liner: When your relationship changes a lot, it's cool to see, and you go through its ebbs and flows like a little rollercoaster.

Nieves: It was a big moment where that's the starting point of the switching when you roll a little bit in certain aspects of their friendship.
