    Summary

    Where was she now? First kiss number eighteen? Twenty?

    Whatever.

    Like in any of the preceding times where Elena initiated it, the kiss grew hungrier than it had been that true first time, when she'd turned around and was blindsided by the realization that the 'em' Katherine had sent her off to meet was Elijah Mikaelson.

    She bit into his lip and let her nails cut into the skin on the side of his neck. A potent, familiar scent hit the air, and Elena let out a satisfied little growl near the back of her throat. She'd made him bleed. Good.

    That's what he got for somehow getting her caught in a fucking time loop.

    /or/

    Groundhog!American Gothic — Elijah calls her Katerina and then kisses her. Two hours later, he does it again. And again. This is a lot of making out... it's also a lot of being called by the wrong name. Elena might be full of bone-deep apathy, but eventually something's gotta give.

    Summary

    It was the amusement that tipped Rebekah off - the way that underneath the offended anger, Katherine was just about singing 'I know something you don't know' all saccharine pleasure and victory.

    Rebekah furrowed her brows.

    "Give me that," she said, nicking the phone out of Elena's hand and staring at the two-letter word they'd taken for a nickname just minutes ago.

    "Hey," Elena snapped with barely detectable annoyance.

    Rebekah kept staring down at the screen, ignoring the questioning eyes of both Doppelgangers, 'meet em' stared back up at her.

    She cursed under her breath.

    Not a nickname at all was it?

    /or/

    'American Gothic' but Elena never gets a chance to pretend to be Katherine. Not that this means there won't be a moment for her and Elijah to share. The sky is still blue after all.

    Summary

    Ted Spankoffski's dad doesn't love him and his mom is a Greek god. As a result, Ted becomes a lot of things over the years: a big brother, a camper, a stoner, a boyfriend, a solider, and a traitor.

    And a corpse, of course, but that's skipping straight to the end. We'll let the story happen naturally: ugly bits and all.

    Summary

    She’d been free. Freed from a conscience she couldn’t afford to give up again. Free from the grief she’d never actually wanted to abandon, not until the choice was taken from her. But also free from the two brothers that had been taking choices away from her from the moment they’d come to town.

    And she didn’t want to give that freedom up. She wouldn’t. Not ever again.

    /or/

    When Elena feels her humanity returning she finds herself focusing on having finally been free from the Salvatore brothers, and doesn't abandon her justified anger. Unfortunately, she also realizes that her sire bond to Damon isn't fully broken and goes to Rebekah for help, help that involves a little trip to New Orleans.

    On the way, Elena will have to deal with her newly returned humanity as well as some long-awaited truths about Caroline's old relationship with the older Salvatore.

    There are some things that even the most compassionate person could never forgive.

    Summary

    The city doesn't feel real to her. Technicolour lamplights and legged fish, quilts and cakes, and queen-sized couches. The desert heat hovering heavy, her body still burning in that big empty house.

    Elena moves to Vegas.
