Oh yeah, I'm good. Rebekah's been giving me water and I'm gonna go to sleep soon. Tell Danny I said hi! We will talk about Surprise Uncle when I'm sober.
[Because she can tell that that's going to be a heavier conversation.]
( But, the narration will just assume drunk Alice hangs up on Lizzie, thinking it's polite, and not -- caring. Also, she needs to be put to bed. But in a sweet way. )
Belly of the freakin' Mikaelson's.
( She does math in her head and doesn't care about the time difference as she leans against the wall of the stairwell dialing her boyfriend's number. )
[Where else was she going to stay, Lizzie? Her father is married to one of them.
Anyhoo, fortunately for Lizzie, the doctors have diagnosed her boyfriend with a small concussion, so he is not allowed to sleep just yet. He hears the phone buzzing and smiles when he sees Lizzie's face on his screen.]
Messaged. Voice-messaged. Then talked. I need to work with her on getting the right information out right away, but I got the gist, and she got bourbon. She said you were fine, though. Are you fine?
Nothing about a small concussion is very fine. Someone better be making sure you don't fall asleep, Elm Street-style or I am calling that shady GPS witch and coming there myself.
( A beat from the other end, Bonnie leans over: "Hi, Lizzie." A beat. "I'll give you two a few minutes. Call me back in when you're done. Bye Lizzie!")
But really, I'm okay. No broken bones, no impalements - I got off lucky. Damon's friend Melanie got skewered with a chair leg, but fortunately she's a vampire and it missed her heart.
Then we can celebrate you were only concussed. ( a sigh as she checks her watch. ) Call me in a few hours. I can keep you up better than Bonnie can, okay? Also, juicy gossip at chez Saltzman-Parker.
I haven't asked, but I'm more than meets the eye, and I don't give off witch. That's the siphon in me. If only I could keep the word Gauntlet out of their mouths. Until I say otherwise, your bed in London is also my bed in London.
( which -- feels bossy again. but, they're long distance. she knows he likes it. )
Besides. Your "friend" likes when people owe him favors so if worse comes to worse, I'll sign a big fat IOU. You're worth it, Danny.

I take it you talked to Alice?

My magic protected me from a lot of it.

...Too bossy?

[He will not tell Bonnie about Lizzie's assessment of the situation. Though speaking of her parents:]
The explosion won't affect your parents letting you come out for winter break, will it?

[Right now, that's looking dubious. He is the one who's actually murdering the Inner Circle, after all.]
But good. Because I'm really looking forward to that. I miss you.
no subject
( Is it that bad? She'll learn just how bad it is on their later phone call. )
I miss you, too. Even if I've been getting better at -- not telling you. I am. I got to go. Ears in the house.
no subject
[There's a smile in his voice regardless as he goes to hang up.]
Talk soon, love.
[And with that, he'll call Bonnie back in and leave Lizzie to her evening.]
