'cause you know I'm coming home



Somehow, at this point, a magic doorway leading to yet another world doesn't surprise her at all. As soon as she sees the sun and the waves and the green where her quarters should be, she doesn't hesitate to step through. It's not just the warm draw of nature either, so refreshing after the cold darkness of space - there's something else drawing her as well. Or rather, someone else. She follows that sense down the beach, through the town, and to another door.

Knock, knock.

And there she stands on his front step, beaming. "Hey, stranger."
stefanged: (is that a challenge?)

"Much better," he agrees, basking briefly in the warm sunlight.

It's warmer with her here. Brighter too, like it's filled with life rather than remnants from another time.

"You wanna see your room? Or well, what I'm gonna guess is your room, 'cause it sure doesn't look like my brother's."

"Alright." He leads her to a room at the very end of the hallway, opening it and ushering her inside. Once again, it's as if the place knew she would arrive. Pale white walls greet her, but the room is fully furnished with those green plants she loves so much.

He laughs, sliding a little on the floors with his fuzzy socks. "What do you think?"
stefanged: (easy smile)

No way. The room had already seemed tailor-made for his soulmate, but the addition of original vinyl Bon Jovi albums seals the deal. This place really was lifted from their minds - and it really did want to be their new home.

"Holy shit," he says, rushing over to inspect it. "It's exactly like I remember..."

Which is a little weird, because it's technically Salvatore's memories and not Alesci's, but he's rolling with it.

"You know I was actually his guitarist for a hot minute?"
stefanged: (confident smile)

"Because I didn't remember," he says, with far more amusement than he rightfully should have. "Funny thing about this place: it fixed all of my memory problems."

It didn't exactly fix his identity issues, but he's starting to find himself and to walk the path between Salvatore and Alesci. He is both, and he is neither - and it only took him three years to figure it out.
stefanged: (kinda hopeful)

Good question. Off the top of his head, Misty knows everything relevant. Salvatore had been a godless heathen, he'd rocked out with Bon Jovi, and he was an immortal vampire from the 1860's.

"I know a thing or two about a witch's grimoire," he says, after a moment. "If you ever wanna learn how to keep one, I mean."
stefanged: (headtilts)

"Grimoire. It's like your cookbook - a collection of spells unique to you, and a symbol of your power." He mimics turning the pages of a book. "I knew a family that had one for every witch, and they looked pretty useful."

"Then let's get you one today." Stefan figures there's a stationary store around here, or at least a bookstore that carries nicer blank notebooks. Itinere doesn't feel like a place that cares about financial transactions, and well? If it does? He could always compel them to barter.

"I didn't keep one myself, but I think it could be helpful. After all, you remember stuff the more you write it down."
stefanged: (in that case)

"Well, we can't have that," he teases, raising an eyebrow in amusement. Without another word, he turns back towards his room, fully intent on picking up his messenger bag and shoes.

"I haven't seen much of the town myself, so it'll be good for both of us."

“It's been a few weeks,” he admits, slinging his messenger bag across his shoulder. “Time seems to work weird here too, but that's nothing new.”
stefanged: (disbelieving)

"Did we ever find out if we actually had an audience?" Stefan shakes his head, laughing a little. "I'm not sure I want to know, but... I'll take a beach resort over that, any day of the week."
stefanged: (headtilts)

[personal profile] stefanged 2017-08-24 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"Maybe." Stefan hasn't given it much thought before, but if this place could summon Misty, it could potentially summon whoever the heck it wanted. "It brought you here, so... I can't say I can rule it out anymore."
stefanged: (kinda hopeful)

"Sorey." Stefan doesn't have to think twice. He hums thoughtfully, "I miss that kid already. But if he has to come, he's gotta come with Mikleo - I don't think I've ever seen them apart."

(He says, having actually seen them apart for pretty decent periods of time.)

"What about you?"
