Who: Elena Gilbert
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Yes (on the hospitality deck of the Marsiva)
When: Now
[ Elena wakes with a start, her first thought being that she'd fallen asleep in one of the unused patient rooms. She rubs her arms with her hands, an attempt to chase away the chill and gives the room a good look. This isn't any room in the hospital. She puts her feet on the ground and stands. She's still dressed in the long-sleeved thermal top and blue scrubs she wears at work. She tucks a strand of her dark hair behind one ear.
Once she orients herself and does a little bit of exploring, she heads to one of the screens to browse the network and get a better grasp of this place. After that's done, she makes her own broadcast, giving the video screen a sheepish smile. ]
Hi, I'm Elena Gilbert. I just arrived and I've got no idea what to say here. Am I supposed to tell the class all about myself? I think I used to be good at this. [ She takes a deep breath then releases it. ] Whatever this is. I can honestly say this is my first time on a reality show though.

The Center? [ She's curious about ti because Stefan's voice sounds as if it's a place he's fond of. She wishes he was able to take her there simply because it's clearly important to him. Also, it would mean they wouldn't be having this conversation via vid screen rather than in person.
Once she has a little time to think about it, she will realize how well it suits him. Stefan has always looked for something to ground him, comfort him and give him hope. She might be a little irrationally jealous at first because at one time she was that thing. However, she's mature enough to get over that and realize they are two entirely different things. ]
And Jarvis told me to check out the kitchen. It sounds as if a movie marathon snuggled in my bunk is in order. [ She pauses a moment. ] We could watch them together. Over the network sometime when you've got the time.
[ because she understands that he probably doesn't have as much time as she has since he's the Captain of a ship. ]

[ Okay, so he wholeheartedly threw himself into his work and he built the place with the help of his friends. He might've been unconsciously channeling Caroline, but the effort and time had been worth it. ]
Mr. Jarvis is right. Once you leave, the quality of the food gets iffy. [ He relaxes. Jarvis is good people, and he couldn't have asked anyone better to talk to Elena. ] Also, you're talking about me. When it comes to you, Elena, I've got all the time in the world.
[ . . . except for when he has to take breaks to pray, but that's nothing he can't handle. ]

I'll stock up. Like a bear preparing for hibernation though it seems like half the time I eat out of vending machines these days so it might not be much different from what I'm used to. [ How can she not smile at that. She ducks her head, cheeks flushing, stomach tumbling with butterflies. ] I'll get settled, grab some food then we'll pick a movie. I'll talk to you more in an hour, let's say? [ She wants to shower too. ]

Sounds good. Take your time, though - I'm in absolutely no rush, and I can still work on stuff while we watch.
[ Especially his lab work. He's gotten to the point where he can finish it on auto pilot about 90% of the time. ]

[ She smiles at this then nods. ] Okay. Talk to you in a little while then. [ She goes ahead and clicks the video off to do what she needs to do and settle in. This will probably be a common thing over the next several days, possibly longer. ]
