[While they're waiting for Caroline to arrive and once food has been delivered, and Laura has gone off to devour some of it, Cora will do the thing that needs to be done for the members of their family that aren't here in Beacon Hills. And unfortunately she has to start with context for Peter since he isn't in the other group chats.
Like everything else Cora, she's going to be direct and to the point.]
In case you haven't heard (Peter), a bunch of dead people have been popping up all over the place. We had three in Beacon Hills.
One of them was Laura.
[There, now Malia can stop being cagey in the other group chats because all the Hales know.]
No, you weren't included because other people don't trust/know you and we didn't start the chats.
Popping up all over the place = appearing randomly across the country. Sioux Falls, Mystic Falls, Beacon Hills, Baltimore. Derek said Erica showed up in New Orleans too.
She also knew enough about me to call me out as a Hale, and we don't exactly advertise that so I think it's safe to say that she knew more than you all did. Maybe a benefit of being the next alpha was keeping all of Talia's dirty little secrets.
No, I've got it. I think right now the plan is to stay through Christmas until we can figure out how to get her paperwork reinstated, and then we'll head back to New Orleans. We're working on getting her a phone.
[And then she's checking the internet because while they should be back before New Year's, the full moon is January 3.]

I do love a good callout in the family group chat, or I would if I've ever been included in one.
I assume the reason I've been omitted before now is the reason you're sending this auspicious message.

It's Laura? You're sure?

done
I mean, I haven't seen her since I was eleven so it's not exactly the same but it feels like her.

It's her. You know your family.
Erica, Derek's former Beta?

[Malia? Bitter about Talia Hale? Never.]

Malia, does she need me there?

Did Erica come right from the vault?
