Lorelai raised her brow as she people watched from the window in the car “You ever seen a bunch of hot half nked Japanese men in 1 room ?” Lorelai asked her friend. Then shook her head “ Yeah me neither...maybe...nah nevermind" she said as she looked back at her friend with a smile. @rededgerpstarterblog

"Girl you sound like you need to get laid." Elena laughed.

It had taken him a little time, but eventually he'd gotten to the point where he could stop questioning the impromptu trip to Japan enough to let himself enjoy it. Although, despite the glamour, it wasn't without it's challenges. Still, he found a sliver of peace in his new found form of entertainment. "I'm convinced our 7-Elevens back home haven't discovered their true potential. They need some monumental plot shift, or some Kenny Ortega Disney musical bullshit to realize how much better they can be." @rededgerpstarterblog

Elena laughed. "I think the 7-Eleven back home is the least of the mayor's prioroties." She told him. "Whoever it is, is having way too much fun making sure we all stay complient."

Veronica wandered through one of the countless shops lining the streets of Tokyo, a few small bags already hanging from her arm. She'd originally planned to do a little browsing, but somewhere along the way that plan had turned into actual shopping.

"Oh I always overshop, so I can promise you, that you are not alone." Elena promised Veronica with a smile.

Tokyo felt different after dark.

"Uh, I was actually going to ask you if you knew how to get back." She admitted to her friend with a laugh. "I am so damn lost."

"I'm sorry to hear that Elena." Lucas frowned. "Okay, cool. I think there's some arcades we can check out, if you're fine with it?"

"It's fine, Lucas. It could always be wrose, you know?" She asked him with a smile. "Yes, that sounds like so much fun!"

"Well I'm glad you're okay that you've been exposed, but I am here if you want to talk or bitch about what your family did to you."

"Thank you, Julian." Elena smiled at him. "I can use all the friends I could get, if I'm being honest."

"I know, I'm excited. Hey, no one said you had to be upset that your secret got out. It's more shitty on your family's end for disowning you, that was fucked up."

"That's exactly right, Kai." Elena agreed with a smile. "How are you doing?"

"Well I'm glad you don't care that you got blasted, but I feel like that's a good way to be." He looked at Elena. "Are you excited though?"

"Hell yes I am excited. I have always wanted to come here." Elena smiles. "How about you?"

"I know, I'm excited." Damon smiled and looked at Elena. "Is there anything you really want to do while we're here?"

"Anything and everything." Elena said with a laugh. "Seriously, I need to have fun."

Serenya spun and smiled to look at Elena. "I'm so damn happy to be here. No worries or bullshit for a whole month."

"I know, it's exciting." Elena smiled at Serenya. "Tokyo is such a beautiful place."

"Hey, there is nothing wrong with that, and it wasn't like your secret was that you offed someone, you know?" She asked. "How are you doing?"

Elena laughed. "That is very true, there are people who have more intense secrets than I do." She shrugs and looks at Tessa. "Are you enjoying Japan?"

"If it makes you feel any better, I didn't even see you got blasted. I'm sorry that happened to you. Well..anyway, we are here in Japan. Is there anything you wanted to see or do?"

"It's okay, it was just them telling everyone that I've been disowned by my family." Elena shrugged. "I am down for whatever."

"Okay, which one do you think will look better?" She asked as she held up two different gowns. "I don't know where I'd wear this, but honestly, both of them are begging me to buy them." @rededgerpstarterblog
