for the rest of us death will be a relief

Not now, Peter.

It's Laura? You're sure?

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.

As sure as I can be. It's her scent.

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

Other people not being you.

It's her. You know your family.

Erica, Derek's former Beta?

That's what Derek said.

[So Derek can confirm or deny that.]

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.

[Malia? Bitter about Talia Hale? Never.]

Maybe instead of gossiping, we should focus on my resurrected niece.

Yes, it's that Erica and you won't be focusing on her. I doubt she'd want to see you, considering.

Malia, does she need me there?

[He asked Malia, but Cora can answer this:]

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.]

Did Erica come right from the vault?
