╬ first bite

[ Like his brother, Stefan can read. But unlike his brother he does not take any of this at face value. He is not happy. In fact, he sounds downright testy. ]

The name Paradisa is Greek in origin. It means garden or orchard. It’s fitting, ending up here. Oh, and Katherine, if this is your elaborate way of influencing my mind, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. Elena and I may not be together but I will never love you again. You will never understand mine or anybody’s idea of paradise. You only serve yourself and if Damon didn’t entomb you I will find you and do it myself.

This isn’t funny, Katherine!

If in fact, this is not a fabrication of my mind and I just yelled everything to complete strangers as it says I would’ve, I apologize. And if I am talking to myself…

[he...got genderswapped. hilarity.]

The castle took away your voice?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Something like that. But it's temporary. Should only last a week... I hope.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Good luck with that. Again, sorry for the outburst.

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Hey, I don't mind. It's the best way to meet people. That and running into them in the hall. [which is not an option for Percy at the moment]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

You wander the halls to run into them?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Why not? Then at least you've got a face intead of a weird book.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

What do you do here besides wander?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

I hang out around the stables every day, and I go to the lake. There's this really cool jellyfish living in there! And I try to practice with my sword as often as I can, too.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

You sword fight?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Sure. Thankfully I haven't had to fight for my life very often here, but I carry my sword everywhere just in case.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Do you have a job?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Why the heck would I want one of those?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

It's something to do.

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

I'm only sixteen. I think I'll see if I get through high school first.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Are there schools here?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Don't think so. I haven't seen one, anyway. [though honestly, he hasn't looked too hard]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Are you counting on getting back home?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

'Course I am. I've got my family and friends waiting for me.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

How long have you been here?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

A few months, I think.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

And you still hold out hope.

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

I never give up hope. And believe me, I've been tempted.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

The castle?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

..Back home. But it worked out, so it's all good.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

I mean, the castle, things that have happened inside the castle.
