While some might be worrying that Elena was headed back to where she'd been back in March, it wasn't exactly that. She wasn't actively seeking a way to end her life. She just... didn't care. Didn't see what it would matter thanks to the fact people only seemed to view her as an object. Maybe she did need to talk to someone. It wasn't exactly far from her mind. She just wasn't sure what she'd say. Which always ended up being the problem, even now that there was someone who wasn't tied to her, who did psychology as a living and could maybe actually help.
"It always can be here." It was a general fact of Lawrence. No matter how bad things got, it could always be worse. And no one ever really wanted to consider how it could be worse when things were already in a horrible state. This time, it was fairly easy to see how things could have been worse as the injuries sustained weren't detrimental. No one died. The demon had been alone, it wasn't part of a massive attack like it had been in December. No crazy witches or vampires or whatever else ransacking the city. All in all, it was a pretty mellow return, demon withstanding. Elena did smile some at the second comment, though.
"I think I'm okay with that idea. We really do end up here too much."
Yes, Anatoly was a doctor. It made sense he'd be in the medbay. And Elena had a habit of getting herself injured in a fight. But really, there were other places in Lawrence. They didn't always have to meet in the medbay.
"Though, I should probably head back home. No need to have Jeremy or Aunt Jenna send out a search party."
Because while she had sent a text, she still was going to worry. Even if Anakin was there and would know if she was actually in danger or anything. Unless... No. He wasn't sent back. Not even thinking it.
"It's good seeing you again."
And it was. Because Elena and losing people never ended well and even knowing how Lawrence could be, it was nice seeing a familiar face and one who wasn't from Mystic Falls. One who hated her or hated what she'd become. And hopefully for his sake, his family would show up again. He had friends here, the medbay, but still, she hoped for him. Waving with her uninjured arm, the brunette headed back out into the night and back to Elphie's.
