>>Mom texted me in hysterics saying she and dad had had it up to here with my selfishness and demanded to see their granddaughter
>>I pointed out I didn't owe them shit because they were abusive narcissists our entire life
>>Mom said I was over exaggerating and that she and dad did everything for us.

Well, it looks like I'm needed in Burundi at the moment so I'll be flying out tomorrow night. I can't say how long it will be but hopefully no longer than a week and a half. Try not to have any emergencies while I'm gone.

>> And I need your opinion to see if it’s viable
>> And maybe who would be interested in financially backing it

I don't want to jinx it, but it looks like I'll actually be in town for our anniversary on Monday. I mean, I would have just found a way back if I had been sent somewhere that required me to actually travel. But still, I'll take it.

>>Well well well
>>You will never guess who I ran into

>> There was something I had wanted to ask you three the other day.
>> I'm still not entirely sure if it was a dream or not, but were any of you visited by, what I can only assume was, a Christmas spirit last week?

Think I can find a spell to keep Klaus from Dreaming since he's decided to show up on the network?

>> I know it's late, but do any of you have plans for Thursday?
>> If not, I was thinking we could do dinner at my place.
>> It doesn't even have to be a big thing.

We picked up a new artifact recently. My main concern with storing it for a rainy day is that it seems to be.. charging up other magics. Boosting them, basically.

Ideas?

Hopefully you'll be able to handle anything that comes up this week since I'm down at the border right now. You obviously know how to reach me in case of emergency though.

I know I'm out of town this week, but Kol's club is opening another location in Las Vegas and they're opening this weekend on Monday if you're able and wanting to come along.

>> So it would seem that you're awake.
>> In my dreams, that is.

[Texts to Kol Mikaelson]
>> I don't know if you're there yet or not.
>> But for what it's worth, I'm sorry I hexed you.

>> I honestly don't blame Marcel and Hayley for leaving Kol and I chained to the staircases for Niklaus and Elijah.
>> I would have done the same in their shoes.

So, I've got a buddy who has a little sunlight problem. Namely, not being able to go out into it without dying in a burning ball of fire.

Don't suppose there ain't no one who can do a little somethingsomething to fix this, is there?

>> So, quick question
>> When I was dropping something off in your office yesterday before I left

[Private to Caroline's friends]
I ended up missing Caroline's birthday last month because we had a big game planned, and I've felt pretty bad about it since, especially since this is her first one since she started dreaming.

I was thinking about throwing a kind of belated surprise party and surprising her with a trip to Napa Valley afterward, but I'm really not... that great at planning parties. Caroline's usually the one that takes care of that kind of thing, if anyone can help me out.

... Also if you have any idea of what to do in Napa other than get wine drunk, I'm all ears.

So with it suddenly being November, do we want to do Thanksgiving dinner together?

>>I dont know if you're planning on seeing Jacob over the holidays
>>But my siblings and I are planning to spend the holidays in Europe
>>And you're invited to join us if you want

>> I was considering a family Christmas in Europe.
>> A continent away from our dear parents.
>> Does anyone else share my interest or was the suggestion a complete folly?
