Stefan pulled away from Lexi, and if his eyes were just a tiny bit shinier than they would have been normally... well, who would blame him in this situation? He laughed, just a tiny bit, as Lexi got right down to business . She'd never been one to dance around any subject. Direct was practically her middle name.
"I wouldn't say this is a broodfest," he said, letting her enter the hotel room before closing the door behind her. "It's just... things are complicated right now." Complicated was definitely one way to put it. Completely fucked up was another. "But I'm dealing with it." Kind of.
Stefan pulled the filled ice bucket out of the mini-fridge and began unwrapping the plastic cups the management had so graciously provided for their use. "So... what's the deal with this place?" A couple of cubes and a splash of bourbon went into each cup. "What's the hunting situation like?" He was okay for now, but he would need to eat something soon and he knew it. To make sure things kept being okay.
