today! on a street somewhere

Elena Gilbert was still learning her way around town.

She had only been in Bete Noire a little over a week, and admittedly there was a lot of ground to cover. Ground that she should not be covering alone, regardless of what experience she may have happened to have in Mystic Falls, but given everything that had happened so quickly during her arrival here, she needed a little time to herself. Time to get her head on straight. Time to ... figure out what to do with all of this -- with the alternate Damon and Bonnie, with Jenna, with ... the world as she was going to have to know it.

That didn't mean she went out stupid, however. There was a stake tucked under her jacket, just in case a vampire decided to jump her (she hadn't learned that these vampires dust yet, and it's probably bound to freak her out a bit when she does), and she was on the look out. She was from Mystic Falls. She was up to her ears in vampires on all the days that end in 'y' and she had been training for situations like this

Lunchtime. Peter had stumbled upon a vietnamese place he rather liked last week, and had been fairly confident about being able to find it again.

He had been wrong. And now he was lost. In a sense. He was fairly sure he knew how to get back to Hell House from here - mostly - but as far as the restaurant went...

There was a girl walking toward him, just as Peter stopped to acknowledge the fact that he had no idea where he was going.

"You wouldn't happen to know where Barber Road's got to?"

Elena paused, before glancing around. She hadn't really been paying attention to the street signs, to be honest. She was walking just to walk, and had been paying more attention to landmarks than anything else. Peter got a sympathetic face, before she shook her head.

"No, sorry."

[fucking_ebay]

He sighed, and gave off a disappointed: "Fucking hell. Ah well. Still got forty-five minutes." He glanced at his watch, and rallied up a sort of resigned enthusiasm. "What's good around this area? I'm feeling suddenly adventurous."

[brave_andstupid]

"I ... don't know, actually," she said with a bit of a shrug. "I haven't gotten a chance to visit them yet."

[fucking_ebay]

"Newbie, eh?" He eyed her with a smirk. "Welcome to the real Sin City."

[brave_andstupid]

There was a sheepish look at that, one hand coming up to run through her hair. "That obvious, huh?"

[fucking_ebay]

"Be careful after dark," he cautioned: a bit of friendly advice. "That's when the nasties come out."

[brave_andstupid]

"That's what I heard," she said with a nod. She could take all the friendly advice she could get. "The vampires?"

[fucking_ebay]

"Vampires... all kinds of things." So someone had warned her already. But the fact that she'd singled out vampires... that could mean something. "Ever seen 'em?"

[brave_andstupid]

"Vampires?" she said with a bit of a resigned sigh. Vampires are the story of her life, Peter. It's actually a pretty tragic story. "More than I'm really comfortable with."

[fucking_ebay]

He nodded. "Good. I mean -- not great, but at least you're prepared, yeah?" He gave her a once-over. She may not have looked like the toughest cookie in the jar, but of course looks could be deceiving.

"It's rough. I know. But -- loads of people come here, they haven't got the first clue. You've seen 'em before, you've got a leg up."
