day 223 | i » video → open.
When I said I wanted to get out of Mystic Falls for a while, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind. Ruins of some ancient prison in Italy or China, maybe, but not underwater and in some alien dimension, or however the hell that's supposed to work. [ if he's getting the gist of this right. he's going by video game logic here. ]

And what happened to a trial by a jury of your peers? Is that not a thing on Planet X? Too human a concept for you? Is throwing eighteen-year-olds in prison for skipping a couple of classes back in high school [ and eradicating an entire vampire bloodline via staking finn mikaelson, but shhhh ] just something you do for fun around here?

[ just when things had calmed down and the world was returning to normal (or as normal as the world was capable of getting after everything that happened back home), this happens. it's just his luck, too. nothing ever stayed good for matt donovan. his life sucked, and it looks like graduating from high school meant it was only going to get suckier from here on out. ]

So much for the world tour.

	Believe it or not, it's not so bad here most of the time. [Because of several circumstances. He has reasons. So many of them.] Though I admit it's been a rough week. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ is one of them that elena's still human and alive here? because that's going to quickly become one of matt's reasons. ] The kind of rough I need to be worrying about? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[That's the biggest one, yes. Also there's currently no Klaus or Kol, which would come in a close second.] If they've gotten rid of the giant tentacle monster that was pounding on the dome for good this time? Then no, not really. Hopefully, that mess is over. Anything else I've dealt with since I came here has been irritating at most. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ yeah, kol's not a problem any more, bro... ] ...and suddenly this has become a really bad Google search. [ tentacle porn. it will haunt you to the grave. that'll show him to actually try to research for that biology paper on cephalopods. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, hopefully that won't be an issue again. [A beat.] Matt, what's the last thing you remember? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Graduation. We graduated. That's the last thing I remember. [ technically agreeing to go to europe with rebekah for the summer, but ffff. omitting a whole lot of stuff here. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Graduation. That was...months and months away. He tenses slightly, looking frustrated.] I'm assuming you've heard about the timeline thing by now? Because you're way ahead. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, Damon told me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It was surprisingly devoid of threats, though I'm going to assume they were implied to be on the safe side. [ gilbert ring or not, damon is still damon. matt's willing to work with him for common goals, but that doesn't mean he fully trusts the guy. or likes him. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; sanguino 2013-06-13 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	Anytime Elena is involved, threats are always implied. [Generally on both of their behalves, really.] I'm guessing that came up? [Elena not being a vampire is a pretty big deal, after all.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; stuck 2013-06-13 05:50 pm UTC (link)
	What do you think? It's Damon. [ elena always comes up. and where matt's from, even finding the cure hadn't saved elena from eternal ~~damnation~~ life as a vampire. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	video; sanguino 2013-06-13 05:58 pm UTC (link)
	[Stefan nods after a moment. He expected as much, but it's better to be sure. Just in case.] It was a surprise to me when I first got here. I didn't want it to be the same way for you. [Or for Elena to have to deal with that shock.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm not going to say anything.

[ direct, right to the point. it's going to drive him crazy to keep such a tight lip on everything he knows, to refuse and lie to his friends... but he'll do it. because it's for their own good. elena's not the only one who will have to deal with the shock of things matt knows. what becomes of tyler (and happens to his mother) will send caroline reeling. ]

	We are getting drinks. Right now. [ yes, bossy much, but it's clear she needs it and that she's pissed. elena wouldn't get it, she's friendly with rebekah, isn't she? caroline's not feeling like giving second chances today.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Come over. I grabbed a bottle of bourbon when we got back. I haven't opened it yet. [And given all this, he's guessing she doesn't want to run into anyone. That's too likely if they go to one of the bars.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He was defending Rebekah and got mad when I was mad about it. He said I was shallow for not giving her another chance. [ and stefan, you know how much she doesn't like being called shallow.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

...Matt was defending Rebekah.

[He was about to take another sip and had to pause in confusion. Because he'd spent some time here with the Original and knew that there were things about her that were not as bad as they seemed. But Rebekah had tried to kill Matt. Had given him the guilt when Elena had Stefan save him instead.

What could have possibly happened to make Matt give her another chance?]

Are you sure he wasn't compelled? Maybe before he came here?

	Wouldn't it wear off here? [ because otherwise, yes! that has to be it.] Because that would explain so much. [ however a part of her feels guilty for not giving matt the benefit of the doubt even if what he's doing is crazy.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
