[ Is it narcissistic to think that if he makes a video post he'll get more interest in the matter? Probably.

He seems overly worried which is veiled behind a thin mask of apathy... ]

Has anyone seen Elena Gilbert?

[ He's looked for her, she wasn't in her room, she wasn't in his, he's searched the place pretty well. ]

Elena's missing?

[Rebekah merely arches an eyebrow in reply. She herself had been missing for a matter of weeks and she's not sure anyone aside from Hayley and her brothers so much as noticed; she directs that bitterness towards Damon now, still wholly annoyed that he has no idea who she is.]

You poor thing. You must be heartbroken, having misplaced your precious little angel.

[Why everyone is always tripping all over themselves for Elena, she'll never know.]

[Video]

[forworse]

[ And this is why everyone betrays her, she's a bitch. He's about to answer seriously, friendly even, and then her scathing remarks have him reconsidering. ]

Now now, no one likes a jealous ex. [ Not that... He and Elena are even a thing. ]

I haven't been able to find her. You haven't seen her, have you?

[Video]

[equalmeasure]

I'm not your ex.

[Jibe or not, it needed correcting, because that is one misconception she cannot allow to stand.]

And no, I haven't seen her in ages. A bit busy being kidnapped; it really puts a damper on one's social life. Regardless, no sign of her since I've been free.

[Video]

[forworse]

I thought we were lovers. [ The way he says lovers is a bit too playful, now he's just trying to get her goat.

His expression immediately changes to something more serious, thoughtful even. ]

Who kidnapped you?

[Video]

[equalmeasure]

Perhaps you simply dreamed it.

[One tussle does not a pair of lovers make, though the note of scorn in her voice suggests otherwise. They weren't close, but the way the situation had been handled still felt like a betrayal.

The bitterness eases and her expression shifts slightly, becoming more reserved.]

Someone you should be very afraid of. We all should be. A vampire who hunts other vampires.

[Video]

[forworse]

You look okay to me - lover.

[ He pops a shoulder up in a lazy shrug - yeah he'll get right on being afraid... not. ]

So either they suck at hunting vampires or you're a girl that can take care of herself.

[ She doesn't want to know what option he thinks it is. ]

[Video]

[equalmeasure]

[That gets a face.]

Don't call me that again.

[Or else.]

Largely the latter, regardless.

[She's also a girl who knows when to run.]

[forworse]

[ He seems totally unfazed by the demand. ]

This vampire hunter - do you think they got Elena?

[ He'll kill the son of a bitch. ]

[equalmeasure]

I don't think he gives a damn about her, no.

[Mikael has much bigger fish to to pursue.]

It wouldn't benefit him in any way. Besides. With as much time as I've spent with him the last month, if he'd taken her, I would have known.

[Not that she sounds thrilled about that little retreat of hers.]

She's probably just gone-- or realized that even she can do a hell of a lot better than you.

[forworse]

You're being bitter and spiteful again. Not flattering.

[ Neither is being a dick, Damon.

He pauses for a moment, something in his blue eyes besides sarcasm. ]

I'm sorry that happened to you.

[equalmeasure]

I'm just telling you as plainly as I can. It's not a slight against her. The hunter in question is incredibly specific.

[And Elena had been worth more to him as a pawn, previously, than a target.]

You're hardly one to talk about what's flattering. [A pause.] You're sorry?

[She skips a beat, just for a moment, falters.]

I had no idea you were capable.

[forworse]

Why'd he take you? How'd you piss him off?

[ What makes Rebekah so special? ]

And suddenly I'm starting to regret it.

[equalmeasure]

I exist. That's all the reason he needs.

[Unfortunately, that's quite literal. She rolls her eyes at his response, tired.]

If you want the rest of the story, that's not the way to get it, Salvatore.

[forworse]

He sounds like a dick.

[ Damon lets out a sigh, a bit melodramatic. ]

It's Damon. And who says I want the rest of the story?

[stoptheviolence]

Elena...Elena...

[The name definitely rang a bell with Brittany. Familiar enough for her to not only remember, but take the time to recall that particular conversation.]

The pretty chick asking about apocalypses or something, right? [...sort of.]

[forworse]

Yes, that one.

[ He offers Brittany one of his most charming smiles.</small< ] Haven't seen her lately have you?

[stoptheviolence]

[Very nice smile. Consider her charmed.]

Not recently, no. I'm sorry.

The last time was like, a month ago or something. We were talking about how confusing Wonderland can be compared to High School.

[forworse]

Ah, yes, high school. [ He doesn't care. ]

What about Caroline Forbes? Seen her? Blonde, loud, neurotic, controlling.

[stoptheviolence]

You just described, like, half the girls I went to school with.

[No joke.]

But I don't remember that name at all. Did she have a nickname, maybe?

[still_human]

[Matt didn't even know Damon was here and he thought he'd run across everyone by now.]

Elena is missing?

[He's more concerned about that then Damon to be honest.]

Video

[forworse]

[ Damon didn't care that Matt was here - as harsh as it sounds, he's been busy with other things. They'd never been close anyway. ]

I wouldn't be putting an Amber Alert out on her if she weren't.

[ Come on Matt. ]

( video )

[ripstides]

Last time I talked to her, she was still trying to get a feel for being stuck down the rabbit hole. [ and she was sweet. too sweet to be stuck in this place. he wonders, well.. he wonders if any of them will truly survive it some days. ] Is it time to put together a search party?

[forworse]

Really? I thought she liked it here.

[ Oh, look, a good dooer teenager, what's new. ]

Yeah, a search party sounds right.
