He never was the spritely one.

Well, if you see him can you tell him he's late? Bambie has a bedtime and all that.

[braveandstupid]

Do I want to know what he's late for?

[smug_charmer]

Oh, you know. The usual. Researching the latest murders, discussing plans of action--making sure Stefan eats on time and doesn't get any sudden hankerings for the stronger stuff.

[braveandstupid]

I'm sure he appreciates all your hard work.

[smug_charmer]

Oh, he does. He told me so. In a letter. Complete with x's an o's.

So. What are you doing this fine evening?

[braveandstupid]

Nothing. It's awesome.

[ She does just that, gathering up the balls, putting them each in their place before pulling the rack back to where it belongs.

When she glances up and gets a better look at the girl, she can't help but smile.

She's cute. ]

I'm Melissa, by the way.

[braveandstupid]

[glances over as she tries to find the right cue, before returning the smile]

Elena. You new in town.

[tastedlikegold]

I'm visiting my cousin. He goes to the university.

[braveandstupid]

Well. Welcome to Mystic Falls.

[tastedlikegold]

Thanks. [ Said with a great big smile still on her face. She leans on her cue a bit. ] Did you want to break?

[braveandstupid]

Sure.

[goes to pick up her cue and starts to line up her shot]

How long are you going to be staying in town?

[tastedlikegold]

[ And Melissa will just be watching. Not...too carefully because that's creepy and inappropriate, but still. ]

Until Friday. After that it's back home and back to school.

[braveandstupid]

Where do you go to school?

[and she'll take her first shot and watch as the balls spin about the table]

[tastedlikegold]

Chance Harbor in Washington.

[braveandstupid]

[pauses for a moment as she thinks that over]

Never heard of it. But then again, not many people have heard of Mystic Falls either.

[tastedlikegold]

Yeah, they have kind of the same vibe. I guess that's why he came here.

[braveandstupid]

Maybe.

[takes her shot, before stepping away from the table]

How do you like it so far?

[tastedlikegold]

[ Melissa talks while she eyeballs the table. ]

I haven't been here that long, but...it's nice. Reminds me of home, so it's comfortable, but it's not home, no one knows me...it's kinda freeing, ya know?

[braveandstupid]

[nods]

I wish I could feel that way sometimes. Everyone that I know here has known me since I was a baby.

[lawyering]

[ Marti perks up at that. ] Yes! [ And now she will be pulling Elena in and dancing all up against her like they're more than friendly. ]

[braveandstupid]

[That throws her a bit too, but eventually she manages to find Marti's rhythm and meet her in it.]

new drinking game: drink while you drink. i'll explain the rules when i see you, needless to say, it's not difficult. unless you enjoy sobriety, humanity and life. bestest.

[braveandstupid]

[Sigh. Damon.]

Where are you? Do you need someone to come get you?

[reaction]
