Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

No, I wasn't raised in it. I didn't even know about my powers til pretty recently. But I've been through my fair share so, don't take that as I sign that I don't know what I'm doing.

[ The Bennett line is powerful. At least she has that to her advantage. ]

Definitely overrun. [ At this point, the historical vampire problem is pretty much the worst kept secret in Mystic Falls. ] I mean, there's still humans who don't know but, I think they are getting harder to find at this point.

You know, they might also assume we aren't going to use our powers to hurt the humans here, either. We already have enough going on here without us all turning on each other.

You poor thing.

[Frowning then, looking utterly hurt for her.]

Why would they assume that? Their hobby is throwing death and dismemberment at us, and then they just bring in whoever to cope with it? You don't think that's not going to end badly?

Corner people and they will do whatever they can to survive. Kill the leaders. Kill one another. Whatever it takes.

[He shrugs as if it was no big deal.]

I'm fine, seriously. I'm glad I didn't know about it. Kinda wish I still didn't.

[ Powers or not, her life hasn't exactly been awesome since she found out about vampires. ]

Yeah, maybe. But people can pretty quickly find themselves on the same side when they have a common enemy. [ She's seen it herself after all; Elijah helping them to kill Klaus, Damon working along with them. ] Not sure I really want you on my side, though.

[ What? He sounds like a jerk. ]

[He frowns then, looking utterly confused and uncertain about her and the things she was saying.]

Okay, I'll bite and not in the fun way. Why wouldn't you want to know? Even if it isn't how you were born, are you saying there aren't more reasons why you need to be who you are, than not?

[He just can't imagine, living fae all his life and trying to imagine not being it literally made him shudder.]

Now that I can understand. How I ended up sided with people I would actually call friends. We all shared the same enemy. The Morrigan, and the Ash, and half the fae world it feels some days.

[Rolling his eyes at that, though he only rarely questions his choice to shift sides as he has.]

See, that's a mistake. You always want the ambiguously gray guy that will do what you won't and get away with it. The one whose open to changing side and changing his mind. Glad Bo and Kenzi figured that out. They were always the more fun side of things. Also they didn't commit genocide against my entire species of fae, so there's that.

[His expression darkened then, but not getting angry. Just bitter.]

I've been through a lot. I've watched people I care about die. I don't know if I would take it all back but at the same time, I wonder what my life would be like if I could.

[ She always assumed Grams was nuts, that all the talk of psychics and witches was just a sign of senility. Bonnie often wonders how simple her life could have been if she hadn't ever found out the truth.

Of course, it could also mean more of her friends dying. It could mean losing Elena and even Caroline. ]

I have enough ambiguously gray guys in my life. [ Damon was the epitome of gray. Whatever side he ends up on is the side that's in his best interest, loyalty be damned.

The last comment catches her off guard, though. As much as she would like to wipe out all vampires (and almost did when she had the chance), it still weighed on her mind. There were some vampires she didn't want to harm, like Stefan and Caroline. Her mind was slowly starting to change, as much as she didn't want it to. ]

Why would someone want to wipe out your species?

How many have you saved from dying? How many more would have died without you having that ability that you have?

[He isn't one who has done the same, or saved any lives himself - well not many, but he's seen this. The guilt and the pain from loss. He doesn't entirely get the guilt, but he definitely gets that people feel it. Why? He never knows but it's there.]

No one ever has enough. If we did, the world wouldn't need us. And the world does need guys like me. It likes to pretend otherwise, but the fact that we thrive proves otherwise.

[He shrugs, but Vex doesn't answer right away. No quick answer to that question like he seems to have to the others.]

Because people get scared, and they fear things. Then they kill what they fear. No matter if they deserve it or not. Fear usually wins out.

[ His question silences her, because he's right. She tries to place a lot of the blame on what's happened on the Salvatores; Grams' death, the vampires escaping the tomb, Caroline's turning... The truth is she blames herself as equally. Bonnie isn't sure she's done more harm than good.

But of course, she has to think about the things she has done. She has to think about how she's going to save Elena, no matter the odds. ]

I guess there's a point to everything. [ Life and death, good and bad. Bonnie has learned there is a place for all of it, as well as the fact that there is so much in between. Her comment serves as a response to both her own situation and his; they both exist the way they do for a reason, and as much as Bonnie might be cynical about it all, she also knows there is a balance that has to be maintained. ]

I definitely get that. I guess... I've kind of been there. [ Back when she wanted to kill Damon, back when Stefan would just be a casually if he got in the way. How had things changed so quickly? ] What is your species, exactly?

[Monster that he is, Vex has been around Bo and Kenzi long enough now to know this. That guilt that all seem prepared to carry with them, as if it is necessary to keep being a decent semblance of a human being. Maybe they're right, given he lacks both guilt, or decency, but he hates watching the girls in his life go through this and he'd rather not watch this woman go through it too.]

Yeah, it sucks when the assholes have a good point, huh? I try and do it often, just to get those pissed off looks.

[It's a bad sense of humor, but he's known since he was little that it is one of the few things to get him through his life all these years.]

Fae. As in, yes, fairies. Well that's the genus, I guess? Fae encompasses a lot. The specific kind that was slaughtered is a mesmer.

[He holds up his hand again though he doesn't use the ability this time.]

How we control people, how we feed, and a horrific and disgusting way to murder us slowly as well.

With the things that exist where I'm from? I'm not going to laugh at you about fairies.

[ She doesn't. Bonnie's face is actually really serious and concerned. She doesn't like this, knowing that there are things here that aren't back home. Back home, she knows what she is capable of and how her powers can protect her and her friends. Here, she doesn't know anything. ]

That's how you did that thing earlier... How you controlled me.

That's going to put you ahead of a lot of people here. Some of them aren't even aware of supernatural beings, nonetheless know how to handle them.

And you've got a start with me. I don't tell everyone, but you're a witch and I've had some good dealings with witches before.

[And some bad, though he can't think of a species he hasn't had a bad time with. That's what happens when you're the head enforcer for the Dark, after all.]

Yeah, that would be it. I don't tend to use it too much. Not around here. I mean, there may be bigger and badder, but it's the lack of backing that slows me down here.

[One way or another, he had alliances back home. Not so much here.]
