Human again - I need a drink (OTA)

Nov 19, 2011 20:16

Damon still had no idea what was going on. Last he'd known, he'd been in Florence, trying to figure out how to get Katherine away from Stefan's courtship and into his bed. Or on his arm. Maybe his father was right about some things--at least so far as making sure Guiseppe never cut off his allowance--and he should consider settling down. Wherein ( Read more... )

Hanging out in a pub despite being under-aged wasn't at all new to Jeremy. No one really said anything about it before and it didn't seem they were going to bust him now. Probably because he wasn't actually trying to drink anything harder than soda but whatever.

He had been sitting at a nearby table when he spotted Damon and he considered whether to approach the vampire or not. He had been told that this Damon wasn't from his world but that didn't much matter.

So, finally, he rose to his feet and walked over. "Hey, Damon."

Damon looked up at the boy when he approached. He looked about Stefan's age, maybe a little younger, but he wasn't familiar, at all.

"Do I know you?" The Italian accent that was always there, in his world, was a little stronger, now.

"Not here, no." Jeremy didn't notice yet that there was anything different about Damon beyond what he had been told. So he didn't clue in to the fact that Damon had been affected by the strange events of the weekend.

"I'm Jeremy Gilbert." He offered his hand.

Damon wasn't quite sure what to do with the proffered hand, but he took it a little warily.

"Damon Salvatore, though you seem to know that already somehow..."

Jeremy gave the hand a quick shake before letting go and motioning at the chair. "Can I join you?"

"Yes, I'm from the other place." He looked briefly confused then. "Didn't Ric or Jenna tell you?"

prodigalsavior November 20 2011, 02:59:50 UTC

"Certainly." Damon waved at the empty seat, generally happy to share a drink with anyone who didn't bore him too quickly. And someone who knew him wasn't boring--frustrating, but not boring.

"What other place? Who are...Ric and Jenna?" Damon went from looking sulky back to genuinely confused.

Taking a seat, Jeremy looked confused as well as Damon didn't seem to have a clue what he was talking about. "I mean Mystic Falls." He was pretty sure that both Ric and Jenna had told him that the people from the other world knew about them and where they were from.

"You know, Ric is your friend and Jenna is my aunt. Elena's aunt too in our world." He started to frown. "Are you feeling okay?"

prodigalsavior November 20 2011, 03:10:30 UTC

"Not particularly," Damon admitted. "I have no idea what you're talking about."

He really didn't like that feeling, at all, honestly.

istillfeelempty November 20 2011, 03:20:07 UTC

"Oh-kay." Jeremy replied slowly. He was at a bit of a loss at the moment and he really didn't know what to say now.

"Do you know where you are?" Maybe this wasn't the Damon that the others had told him about.

"Katherine called this place Haurvatat," Damon said, with a brief scowl at the mention of the vampire--who kept insisting her name was Elena.

"I have never heard of such a village in all of Italy, and I've traveled quite a bit."

That, at least, was a point of pride.

istillfeelempty November 20 2011, 03:29:18 UTC

"It's not in Italy." He shook his head. "No one really knows where it is, just that it's supposedly a magical village that has us all trapped here." A little tidbit of information that gave him a headache even if it gave him a good room mate and his dead girlfriend back.

prodigalsavior November 20 2011, 03:59:44 UTC

"So Katherine said. I tried to leave and found myself here again, so it is possible there is some dark magic involved." That was a huge step forward in acknowledgment from Damon. "But I still do not know who you are."

istillfeelempty November 20 2011, 04:33:33 UTC

"Yeah, it happens to all of us." Jeremy knew from experience as he had tried to leave the village too, only to find himself back as though he had never left.

"It's okay, we're not close or anything." He shrugged. "We just care about the same people."

prodigalsavior November 20 2011, 04:38:36 UTC

The people Damon cared about were very limited. His brother was a poncy little brat who was always tattling to their father, and his father hated him, and Katherine...was a means to an end.

He smirked slightly. "Are you certain you know me?"

istillfeelempty November 20 2011, 04:42:36 UTC

The smirk might have made him worry but Jeremy was good at hiding such things. "A little bit. I never claimed we were best friends though."

prodigalsavior November 20 2011, 04:59:59 UTC

"Who is it you think we both care about?" Damon asked, leaning back in his seat and taking a sip of his wine.
