[That feels a little more real, so the teasing tone drops from his voice. He takes it seriously.]
You did your time. You already paid for it.
[Carroll isn't one to beat a dead horse, and he's not one to judge. People get into trouble for a lot of reasons, and the world is complicated as it is.]
( There's a lot that didn't make it in the documentary. He wishes it hadn't caught fire like it did but with a name like Operation: Bonfire, why wouldn't it have. )
Some people don't believe I did. ( But, it doesn't matter what other people believe, does it? ) Depends on the day, what I'd say. ( He sighs. ) Thanks, for making sure my head was on straight. But, I've been confronted with worse. Witches and vampires kind of feel like nothing. Comparitively.
[Carroll makes a bit of a face as he finishes off his drink.]
I don't like lying to people or dancing around things so it's a bit of a relief that I don't have to. Plus it'll make things a lot easier when we go to New Orleans.
[He won't have to slip him vervain or get his family to edit themselves.]
I don't think your brothers will be showcasing their talents at their other brother's wedding. But, you're right. You won't have to explain anything away. Guess everything worked out.
( He finishes his glass, too. )
I need to get back to the office, finish Harvey's work. But, thanks for this. The drink. More context.
Well, one, New Orleans is seeped in supernatural history and has a lot of supernatural people living there and two, my cousin is also a vampire who is married to one of the oldest vampires in existence, so. It's not just the powers.
[He doesn't expect Connor to be spending much time with Klaus, though. Still, he nods.]
Anytime. If you think of anything later, I'll be happy to answer those too.
