DAY 207 (nightish) → open video + private messages.
[ welcome to elena's room. it's filled with things. and boxes. some things are in some boxes. she's thought twice about making this video, and then thought twice about making it public (klaus) but on her second thought, she decided to stop hiding in the network.

for the most part.

she's sitting cross-legged on her bed, mister teddy junior in her lap. ] It's kind of amazing how much stuff can accumulate here after a month. [ wait. ] More than. [ she puts him in the box. ] Books, clothes... [ her eyes look out to the space of her thoughts for a only a split second ] people, memories.

I know a lot of us are all working to find a way home. [ her included. maybe. ] I guess I was wondering why any of you would want to stay.

& private to zatanna zatara

I think we should keep our conversations private for now. Even if it's just something silly. It's not a good idea for you to have Klaus' attention. Even if Rebekah's already told him... [ she swallows. it may be a desperate, scared attempt to protect her... but elena's willing to be that, do that. being a witch might attract klaus' attention too, without her help, but... the thing that gives her more pause at the moment is jeremy, jenna - how she kept things from them to keep them safe, and it hurt them in the end. (she lost jenna entirely.) so. ] Is that okay?

& private to sam winchester

I wanted to thank you. For the other day. When we were at the library. [ yeah that's all she's got. it's not about the kiss, or the embracing, but it's subtext. he was there for her when she needed somebody, and he listened. wanted to. and it's more than that - the understanding, and the things they confessed...

subtext. ]

[ eyes are the windows to the soul, ok. sometimes elena doesn't use words. ~~(or her mun forgets them and is like eh, whatever. best rper.)~~

her lips part at his reply, and it takes a moment for her to say anything. (seeeeee?) mostly because it means something; trust is important to her. and that sam considers hers important...

she nods slightly, once. ]

Thank you for wanting to know. [ it's been simple for her, trusting him. trusting him with the weight of this has been different. ]

	It looks like we're full of gratitude. [He says this almost like it's a joke, which of course it isn't. Partially because he's sincere and partially because it just isn't funny. There may be a lack of knowing what to say happening though. He needs to learn how to do that loud eye thing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ it's not. but like the trust it means something, and she smiles, small and grateful. maybe she just doesn't know what to say either. maybe that loud eye thing that's just about to happen again stumps her -

which is exactly why she pulling in a needlessly full breath and averting her eyes; the latter action doesn't last for long. ] I have the vervain, for you. For Dean. Whoever else you want to give it to. You just need to drink a little every day.

[He breaks eye contact at that. Not because hers are too loud, but he's not sure what will be in his now. "Dean." There is a tightening of muscles in his face, producing microexpressions he'd rather just keep to himself even after all their sharing.]

Thanks...

[He could leave it at that. Make plans to pick it up, but she'll just ask, so he answers before he hears the words.] Dean won't need any.

[ she mentioned dean because zatanna was so insistent about protecting the people she loves too: her family, her teammates. and she was right. whether or not sam would tell dean... he deserves this. (and so does robin, wally, everyone...)

she knows something's wrong before he says another word. she sees it in his expression, how he looks away. how private it is.

and that dean won't need any... she's confused. maybe because it's easier than narrowing the possibilities, none of them good. ] Why wouldn't he...? [ he's gone, she thinks. ]

	He's... "lost in the dimensional stabilizer." [The thing the wardens always say. The thing that doesn't mean "home" even if that's what everyone wants to believe it means.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she's quiet the space of a breath. gone, she thinks. worse. she can't grasp what sam most be feeling, what dean meant to him. she won't try. ] What do you need? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ she's nodding -- before she even thinks about jenna, about the life here she could have. it's not a small feat but it's... something. anything. it's his brother. (like jeremy is hers.) ] We will. [ she wishes she could believe that more. in the control and resolve and certainty. all she knows is it can be tried. (that maybe the wardens will bring him back, through no effort of their own.)

and it can be tried not just by them, for them -- but for everybody. for him. (he stood by her.) ]

	[Expressions move through his features. The crinkling of his brow as she lends support to the possibly hopeless mission and a slight curving of lips at that same support because it's freely offered.] It's actually not the first time something like this has happened. Believe it or not, this one I think we have a better shot with. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not in prison, but at home. [He shakes his head, preemptively trying to shut her down.] It's a long, complicated story. (Reply to this) (Parent)
