╬ eighth bite; like you like an arsonist

( Angel )

My brother accused you of hurting someone. He's since gone home. I want to apologize on his behalf.

( Elena )

Come by my room later, I'm talking to Angel.

( Caroline )

What night is karaoke happening?

( Lilah )

I know my brother was feeding on you. When I saw the holes in your neck, I realized it. Do you know anything about his leaving the castle after Angela's attack? I am sorry he compelled you.

( Everyone )

I have a question. Was anybody involved with the vampire attack about a week back? Was the culprit found?

...And suddenly, a blue suit appears in my wardrobe. Did anybody else get an invitation?

[ Elena shrugs ] My nose will grow long? [ She laughs ] I promise I won't cheat. And you can be there if I have to wish up some books.

I see you're still the wild child you were back at home.

It's four in the afternoon.

[descendent]

Sorry, I forgot. You get your party on at five.

There's not much to do around this castle. I've just been wandering around. I've gotten lost about twice and that's how I found the kitchen. [ She may grin proudly there. ]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Fifteen.

Did you make anything? [ He one day wants to make her dinner, now. ]

[descendent]

[ Elena will smile sheepishly ] I was kind of scared to? Plus, it was so huge and I really couldn't find my way around. And whenever I kept saying something, like apple, it would appear! [ She may have been saying 'I really want an apple' in a range of different ways, but it's the castle's fault. ] But I think I will, the next time I'm down there.

You could cook quietly. [ Obvious idea? Sure. But no less true! ] You should. Or, I could. Make you something.

[descendent]

[ Elena laughs ] Yeah, maybe I could do that.

You want to make me something?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

...You don't like my cooking all of a sudden?

[descendent]

What! No! I love your cooking!

Feed me Stefan. Please? Or I'll starve. You don't want that on your conscience, do you?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

...You're not just saying that?

[descendent]

Well, you are quite good-looking. [ She smiles and shakes her head, seriously: ] No. I'll prove it to you if I must. The only food I will consume will be off Stefan Salvatore's menu.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

What if I'm not able to cook?

[descendent]

[ BLASPHEMY. ] Then I'll cook. [ Or wish. ] The Elena Gilbert Menu. I have a few of my mom's recipes [ she taps the side of her head ] in here. And I can wish those up, can't I?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

...You can.

[descendent]

[ That, to Elena, is kind of awesome. ] So how would you feel about a meal cooked by yours truly?

And no wishing. I won't wish for anything to cook itself. [ She smiles ]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Hmm, have you cooked for me before?

[descendent]

... There's always a time for firsts. A first time for you not to hog the kitchen and a first time for me to cook for you. [ She smiles ]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

I don't...hog...the kitchen.

[descendent]

Sometimes I think I have to compete with the kitchen for your attention. [ She smiles, totally oblivious to her tenses. Go Elena~ ]

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

And how long do you feel like you've been competing?

[descendent]

Since you first cooked for me. You looked good in my kitchen, you know.

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

Good to know. I'll remember that for when I'm back there. [ Because he will be. They will be. ]

[descendent]

[ ... Concerned face is concerned. ] Can you remember things from here when you go back home?

[historyrepeater.livejournal.com]

I don't think you can.

[descendent]

[ ... Elena is disappointed ] Well, maybe we can enjoy the kitchen while we're here? And hope that back home ... we can continue it.
