[ elena is neither bright-eyed nor bushy-tailed this morning. on the contrary, she’s shaken, unspeakably confused, and even a bit angry. her brown eyes convey that much, though she’s taken some time to look around and calm down -- but only comparatively. ] Look, I’ve heard the message, and the charges against me or whatever. [ she looks off the side, incredulous -- and frankly in shock. ] So, this is an underwater- [ wow she can’t even get ‘prison’ out. saying it makes it real or her crazy, right? ]

You know, let’s just start with: Hey, I’m Elena, and is this some horrible dream?


action.
[ elena doesn't know where else to go. she woke up on the ground in the middle of a park, knowing she wasn't anywhere she should be even before her crimes were being listed off from some foreign device in her ear. she'd flinched and pulled it off, looking at the communicator in her hands, her heart starting to speed in her chest. she took a look around: at the benches, the trees, the shops, and the impossibly high dome ceiling.

now she's up, walking around the so far empty block in a daze. is this damon? she thinks -- or stefan? where is he? she'd can't yet grasp the reality of the situation, struggling to reconcile it with what she knows: vampires.

she stops at the storefront, and the smell of coffee, drawn like a beacon to some activity -- and where people would go, right? she walks inside, her eyes widening at the bots behind the counter. ]

ooc: catch elena oh-so-politely trying to talk to the bots at bean crushers or run into her on the street!

[You won't hear them coming. You won't see their snare. The mistletoe bots are out and they're hunting you, two by two. You can run and you can hide, but eventually you will be caught, and then there's nothing left to do but kiss your way out!

Chapstick stations will be available.]

(OOC: Mistletoe Bots Info)

[The video feed turns on and Katherine smiles, trying her best to friendly, if she ends up getting mistaken for Elena well that is obviously a coincidence, not intentional at all really! Or so she would claim if called out on it]

Well this is new. It's definitely not the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of a prison but I think I got the gist of it. Though I have to say that these outfits we arrive in could use a makeover— orange is so not my color. [She frowns for a moment looking briefly offended by it before shrugging it off and continuing]

Is there anyone else from Mystic Falls here? I'd hate to wish this on anyone but it'd be nice to see at least some familiar faces. [That is the last thing she wants but whatever it seems typical of people do ask that from what she's seen but she's also asking as a precaution too so she isn't caught completely off guard with who else is here] I'm not entirely sure what they want us to do here but here's a poll for the masses since I'm going to be stuck here. Any recommendations for fun things to do around here? I could use a few suggestions.

[Meanwhile if anyone wants to run into her, she'll just be exploring her surroundings being pretty much anywhere around the dome]
