Though things have been kind of a bummer for Damon on The Vampire Diaries lately, we still have nothing but love for the character. In particular: his smolders [1], his sassiness [2], and his dance moves. He's memorably shaken it many times, usually while he's drinking, and sometimes with his shirt open. In honor of the series finale on Friday [3], here is every solid-gold GIF of him dancing on The Vampire Diaries.

In an early season 6 episode, he is getting his '90s groove ON.

And promptly gets caught by Bonnie.

There's this cute little shimmy.

This full-on Coyote Ugly bar dance.

This smug, sexy groove.

There is that time he rocks out at a Decade Dance.

And just loses himself in the moment.

And adorably brings Elena into it.

He was born to dance!

Remember Sage? He takes her for an impromptu spin.

Remember this party scene where he and Elena feed while dancing? New level.

But nothing is as good as this season one scene.

He LOVES drinking and dancing.

Best. Scene. Ever.
