[ it doesn't surprise elena to hear rebekah would want it. not really. maybe for a moment, she's surprised rebekah would admit to it, would want to give up the power that has kept her safe and in control - or as safe and in control as she could be with her brother.
(she knows there's no way they would have given it to her - at least not damon or stefan. and a part of her thinks it would be better used for klaus anyway, practically, even if rebekah might deserve it.

of course there was only one. she hesitates. ] I'm sorry. [ and she means it.
she feels like she does. ] I don't think I would have wanted it.
