[There are others, so many others, that she could send a private message to. But Elena decides to leave it there. No doubt some of the ones she might get in touch with or track down have already heard through the grapevine that she's back.]

[Elena sits down at her desk and flips the video feed on.]


Hey guys. I'm sorry if I didn't let you know personally that I'm back. There's a lot of you and I tried to get to as many as possible. [She purses her lips a moment.] I see a lot of you have left, too.

[She's mostly referring to Arkin. She hopes that wherever he is and whatever he's doing that he's okay. But that is neither here nor there.]

But there's also a lot of you I haven't met yet, too. My name is Elena. For those of you who don't know, I used to be an inmate. I was here... [She pauses to think.] ...about nine months before I graduated and left.

I'm sure someone else has long-since beaten me to it, but if you need anything or have any questions, let me know. This place can be pretty rough and trust me when I say it helps to have friends.

[Elena feels like she should have some kind of speech prepared. Some kind of splendid and memorable goodbye with gratitude to everyone who stuck by her through the worst of her life. She started with no humanity, hating herself and everything her life had become. But gradually, over time, Elena learned to love herself again. She learned to not be afraid of caring. There's a storm of emotions inside of her, good and bad, but she can navigate through them now. And the emotion she feels the most is hope.]

[She'd forgotten what that felt like.]


I really don't know what to say. I guess because I never really thought I'd get to this point.

[She smiles.]

But I guess I graduated.

Hey, I wanted to ask you something.

text - abigail.

Are you busy?

video.

I've been thinking a lot since we were able to talk to people from home.

I've never really been away from home before until now. Not for a really long time anyway. Not like this. I miss the people there, but...

[There's a small pause.]

I'm not sure if I want to go home. I don't mean staying on the Barge. I know that once I'm done here, I'm done. But just...staying in Mystic Falls? I don't know if I can go back to my life like that. I don't know if I can go back to the same people like that.

Does anyone else feel like that?

[It takes some time, but Elena does eventually get around to talking to some of the people who gave her gifts.]

[Elena remembers what happened the last time the Admiral made an announcement like that and she hesitates, but only for a fraction of a second:]

Caroline? Alaric? [A pause. She's not asking for Damon. If she has to talk to him, fine. But she's not really wanting to talk to him right away.] Can you guys hear me again?

Є013 spam//text//voice

spam - abigail.
[With all the weird shit going on around her and the conversations about usurping the Admiral, Elena heads straight for Abigail's room. She knocks and attempts to step inside the moment the door is open because she's used to a general open door policy with Abigail, but instantly takes a step back.]

[She tries again only to be met with the same barrier. She frowns and looks at Abigail.]


What the hell?

text - dean.
[She can't find Arkin anywhere. So, Dean. You're up to bat for help.]

where are you? so help me, you start piling on the smartassery, i will break you in half. i am not in the mood.

text - mal.
[Unfortunately, so are you, Mal.]

before you start breathing down my neck, i'm keeping my fangs to myself. what about you?

voice.
While it's nice to see that the sticks have been removed from pretty much everyone's asses, what the hell is going on here?

((ooc: So, Elena is unaffected. But her mirrorverse self was still human, still nice, and has been here for a year+. She's paired up with Vesper. So feel free to use this as a catch-all post for spam or whatever you want! xoxo))

[Elena has been keeping a low profile as of late. Not out of shame because she doesn't feel any. She actually still feels entirely satisfied with the results of her strike against Cassel and doesn't regret it even a little. But she is noticeably more on edge. Angrier.]

[And that's the last thing she needs.]

[Cassel was justified. Random idiots on the Barge aren't. Elena is emotionless, not amoral.]

[So, she tries to stick to her room as much as possible. She comes out for the occasional bite to eat. Not actual necks, of course. She's slurping down the substitutes like a good little girl and keeping her nose clean in an attempt to keep Arkin off her back. Otherwise, she goes to the gym and demolishes punching bag after punching bag after punching bag. And then there are the times she decides getting drunk in the pub is a better alternative to sitting around getting drunk in her room.]

[And as far as the dead bodies lately are concerned? She doesn't care. She hopes whoever is behind it is having fun.]
