O brother, where art thou?

[getsthelastword]

Cute. Real cute.

I hate cute.

And think about all of the opportunities you passed up in your haste to go fishing for a Stefan before reserves open. The possibilities are endless:

"Desperately seeking Stefan"

"Single, Italian vampire seeks dumbass little brother"

"Looking for Stefan in all the wrong places"

And let's not forget all the possible jokes about other characters in game looking for their brothers, whether it's a crazy Trojan or a Winchester or a Norse god.

But I digress.

Let's keep this simple, okay?

No.

You do have a pretty interesting mesh of people there. Though I'm sure Elena could do with ... your version of me, as oppose to the actual me.

[getsthelastword]

What makes you say that?

[somanyadjectives]

I've been a bit of a disaster as of late. She could probably use a little more distance.

[getsthelastword]

Yeah, I hear you're a peach.

My Stefan isn't exactly a saint, though.

So...Elena's pretty much just screwed?

[somanyadjectives]

That sounds about right. Unless she moves on to someone else.

[getsthelastword]

You make that sound so easy. You're a very cute boy, Stef.

[somanyadjectives]

A very cute boy who eats people in his spare time.

She's better than me.

[getsthelastword]

Well, yes.

That Elena of yours she's...well...she's something.

[somanyadjectives]

A good something or a bad something?

[getsthelastword]

To be determined, bro.

[somanyadjectives]

Well. Keep me posted.

And be careful if a guy named Klaus shows up.

[getsthelastword]

Klaus? Isn't he dead? Not us-dead, but dead-dead?

[somanyadjectives]

That's what we've been told. But timelines, brother. Places like that seem to be famous for screwing with your head.

[getsthelastword]

Oh, that's just what I need.

Fortunately, I have a secret weapon at my disposal.

[somanyadjectives]

Really? That should be interesting.

[getsthelastword]

Things are always interesting when there are blonds involved.

[somanyadjectives]

So long as the blond is inclined to follow your lead.

[getsthelastword]

Hey, we have the same basic desire: Controlling the vampire population.

Just...different motives.

[somanyadjectives]

And she doesn't have a desire to control you?

[getsthelastword]

Aside from the time she hit me on the side of the head with a shovel--I may have deserved it--we've been fine.

Sometimes, it pays to be the extreme lesser of two evils.

[somanyadjectives]

I suppose it does.

[getsthelastword]

So what about you? Ripping Chicago a new one?

[somanyadjectives]

I was, but then I realized that Chicago does enough damage to itself. There was a meteor shower that drove that thought home.

[getsthelastword]

Meteor shower? That sounds...scenic.

[somanyadjectives]

Meteor shower, followed by a monster invasion.
