It was good. Long, but good. I actually cleared some of the air with Ezra.

[She takes the glass of wine before going to sit next to her friend, tucking one leg under the other as she sits.]

Though I am curious. How well do you know David?

[moralitypolice]

Not well, but, well enough. He helped get my magic back. Bela spoke both highly and strangely of him. He's - an acquired taste.

( Tentatively, they are allies. )

[braveandstupid]

I'm getting that. And given some of what Ezra told me tonight I could understand why.

[She leans back against the couch.]

If what Ezra says is true, his parents had him possessed when he was just a kid.

[moralitypolice]

Had him possessed?

( She grabs her glass of wine hugging it close. She repositions, resting her legs under her. )

[braveandstupid]

Yeah. That's what Ezra said, anyway. I don't know how or why but when he and Ezra met, Ezra had to exorcise him.

[Elena shakes her head.]

The more I hear about the Colony, the more I already strongly dislike them.

[moralitypolice]

They cursed generations of witches, voluntary possession of their first born - it's not shocking.

( Except, it is. Maybe it's not surprising. )

Bela wasn't wrong about how dangerous they are. It makes sense why David might be working toward his own ends. Why he could help us with the twins.

[braveandstupid]

[She nods, taking another sip of her wine.]

I want to trust him. Them. And I really hope we can. I just ... I'm nervous. We know how bad these things have gone in the past.

[moralitypolice]

So, we trust them just enough until they prove us otherwise. You're right, we have been tricked before, and lied to, and hunted. ( And been the hunter. ) David is our only lead.

[braveandstupid]

[She nods.]

I don't know him as well as you do. But if you think we can trust him, I trust you.

[She'll always trust Bonnie. They've been burned together, and she doesn't think that Bonnie would put her in harms way.]

Just be careful with him, okay? I want you to be safe too.

[moralitypolice]

I think he makes friends, and I think he's the least shady witch in a coven of shade.

( She hopes, anyway. )

I will. I promise.

[braveandstupid]

Good.

[She takes another sip of her wine.]

Though Ezra also told me that David can teleport?

[moralitypolice]

... As in?

( What? )

[braveandstupid]

As in he walks through a door and can be somewhere else.

[Which on the one hand, kind of cool, on the other ...]

Probably saves him a ton on airfare.

[moralitypolice]

Probably. That's --

( Crazy. )

I've never heard of that. That's -- that's possible. How would it --

[braveandstupid]

Maybe it would be worth it to find out?

[She shrugs.]

Learn something new all the time, right?

[moralitypolice]

If it's teachable.

( Maybe it's about subtle wrist movement? )

I should reach out, shouldn't I? And you should keep the channel open with Ezra. Even if you don't completely trust him, it's better to have the witch husbands on our side than not.

[braveandstupid]

[She nods.]

I'm going to try to. I really did like him, when he was just another doctor. I just want to make sure I'm getting conned too far.

[moralitypolice]

He'll feel the wrath of Elena Gilbert if you are.

( And he should WATCH out. )

[braveandstupid]

Indeed he will.

[And she will clink her glass against Bonnie's.]

Also, have I mentioned yet how really happy I am that you're home?

[moralitypolice]

Not in the last hour.

( She smiles, laughing, dropping her head against Elena's. )

It is good to be home.

[braveandstupid]

It's good to have you here.

[She gives Bonnie a warm squeeze before glancing back at her teasingly.]

And, I can't wait to hear more about Isaac.

[Her sing-song tone will definitely get her smacked with a pillow, but we can fade with them enjoying some quality girl talk.]
