Visio. Sanguis. Virtutis.

     “ I wanted to ask you the same thing, ” Bonnie said with a slightly concerned but more serious expression. Alice wasn’t part of the Scooby gang, as Damon would put it, but Bonnie knew that she was a vampire and honestly, she was a little interested in her. As far as the brown skinned witch knew, she wasn’t murderous and kept out of trouble which was the opposite of Bonnie’s many experiences with vampires. She reminded her a little of Caroline. “ You looked like you were seeing a ghost. Are you alright? ”

Alice turned to give her full attention to the girl, who’s name she knew was Bonnie.  Alice kept to herself mostly and didn’t really try to get involved in much preferring the solitude and the fact that there were less surprise visions to be had if she didn’t have anyone get close to her. “Oh, gosh I’m fine, just needed to get my breath.  Small panic attack, nothing big,” she lied, her golden eyes sincere as she offered Bonnie a smile.  “Sorry if I scared you or something, but still thank you for asking, not a lot of human decency in the world like that anymore.”

         “Lay off the wet dog jokes and stay the hell away from my closet and I think we’ll get along just fine.”

“It’s not my fault they stink, but it’s not unbearable, just slightly annoying.  As for your closet, at least if you’re going to live in flannel and baggy clothes they could at least be cute flannel and baggy clothes. They do make those y’know.”

A strictly human or vampire. Klaus brought the drink to his lips and swallowed deeply, thinking about what she’d said. “What if you used Elijah? He was privy to Lucien’s witch’s visions as was I. You can’t use me because of my wolf side, but Elijah is simply a vampire. He saw the same thing I saw, but you could see it clearer…perhaps find something that he and I missed?”

“How does something like this happen?  Once you turn into a vampire you’re supposed to remember everything, but without that folder, I didn’t even know my full name.” The smaller vampire shook her head, looking over to the Hybrid when he suggested she try to use Elijah.  “I don’t know.  Unless it’s a choice he makes to go through that memory I won’t be able to see it.  And he has to commit to that decision, it has to be final, because I’d know the minute he changed his mind or if he wasn’t genuine.  My visions flicker back and forth  when a person is being wishy-washy and I’ve seen that happen a lot with Elijah. I’ll need you and he tell me everything you saw so that I know what to look for and what not to look for once he makes the decision.”

“You act like you’re the first and only person in the world who’s had horrible atrocities happen to them.  This isn’t me belittling those, but it is me saying that you cannot live your whole life sad and angry about things you can’t change.  I’m a vampire and I know nothing, nothing about who I was before then.  I don’t know who my parents where or if I left anything behind. But you don’t see me moping around like some depressed bump on a log.  Bad, terrible, horrible things happen, but so do good things and if you dwell on the bad you miss out on the good and what’s the point of any kind of life if you let the bad things take over?”

Eyes narrowed at the harshness of her tone, but Klaus didn’t say anything regarding the anger. “What sort of host would I be if I left you to your own devices all the time, love? Besides, I was simply coming to see if you’d learned anything about this silly prophecy nonsense. I take it you have not.” Pity. Annoying. But Alice’s visions were subject to change; he understood that – somewhat. He also knew (learned the hard way from Freya) that visions took a lot of out of someone…and he wasn’t completely heartless. “Perhaps you should stop for the evening. Get rest. Food. Something that will help your focus.”

“The witches seem to have figured out that I can’t see them and so they keep putting themselves in my path.  Every time I get close to figuring things out, things go black.  Almost like they’re changing their decisions solely to keep me out.”  The smaller vampire stood from where she’d been sitting on the floor, turning to look at the hybrid who’d interrupted her.  “Since the prophecy isn’t a physical being I can only see it through the eyes of the people directly involved.  I can’t see past the witches and any parts that have you involved are just a giant blur.  If I had a strictly human or vampire I could see things through, it would make things much easier.”

21: Then there’s tongue

               ❝ Oh A l i c e,  it’s so old. Plus, I’m thinking of redoing my closet with clothes for the spring. I was thinking of asking you to help, but ——❞ delicate fingers pick up the blouse as she holds it up, ❝ do you really think I should keep it? ❞ 

“ It’s not old, it’s v i n t a g e, which is all the rage these days.”  Alice let out a soft laugh, letting the fabric slip through her fingers as her sister took and held it up for them both to look at.  “Even if you redo your whole closet I think it’s a beautiful staple piece, plus if you throw it away, how will I borrow it whenever I want. ”

Thank you.
