Elena had been waiting there since she heard from Caroline. This was not what she needed. She did not need a compelled Stefan and Klaus wandering around looking for her. As far as she was concerned, she didn't want to be found. She would have to be a shut in, completely cut off from the rest of the world, but ... maybe in the end it was safer that way.
When she heard Caroline's voice, she took a few steps forward into the doorway and gave her a smile. "Hey. How'd it go with your boss?"
Tyler showed up a few minutes after Elena. Okay, so maybe he had put off arriving a little bit. He and Caroline hadn't really patched things up yet since their fight, and he doubted this was going to make anything better.
But he eventually made his way in, calling out. "Hello?"
Caroline had just arrived so when she heard Tyler, she opted to just turn around and go toward him, giving him a hug. Even if they had been fighting, she was still glad to see him. Everything just felt so different right now, that knowing he'd made it there and that they were all going to work on this together.
It felt like the right start.
"Hi. Sorry. Hi." She pulled away briefly and moved toward Elena.
"I just finished talking with Tony and he's going to really add into the security system that's already in the building. I told him what I am." She paused, turning to look at Tyler, "Nothing about you - but if he's increasing security - we might need to find you a different spot for your change."
Once more, Caroline was in her 'Time to Organize All the Things' mode.
"I showed him Klaus on the datapad, explained just how dangerous he is, and I think he kind of gets it. He's going to see if he can get the security of the building to just not let him in."
Elena let them have their moment, waiting off to the side while they did. Tyler and Caroline had still been too new before everything else happened for Elena to really know how to react, but ... they had been taking care of each other for a while. And in some ways, they had been good for each other.
And then Klaus had come in and blew everything to pieces.
She also let Caroline get out her ramble before responding. "Technological vampire proofing," Elena said with a bit of a smirk. "I like it. Do you think he can pull it off?"
