“ no, no. you’ve got it all wrong, i knocked him down on purpose. he was lookin’ at me funny. ”
“Well that’s no way to deal with it. Did you tell him to stop? And why he should stop? Or did you even check if he was actually looking at you? There are lots of things you could have did instead.”
“Yeah, but maybe you shouldn’t be so tall and in the way. I’ve got a date with some red tea, I had a reason to rush.”
“No matter how busy someone is it doesn’t take any time to be nice to people, or at least polite. I also can’t help how tall I am so I don’t see how that’s my fault. Even if you are on your way for some red tea.”
“Need one? Definitely. Have time for one? Not a chance in hell,” Elliot replied, motioning with her hand for him to follow. “You can join me for some errands, but you have to keep up.”
Rory fell into step with Elliot, shaking his head at her. “What errands are we doing today? Are they really that important that you can’t stop for five minutes to calm yourself down a little?”
“Sorry, some of us have actual issues to be concerned about… I mean, the thought is coming to mind.”
“No one can be too concerned to be nice to others, it takes like no effort at all. But I guess that’s none of my business.” Rory screwed up his face a little. “Well that’s just uncalled for.”

HISTORY
Childhood/Family Life: Rory and his sisters were brought up in a loving home. Both Bonnie and Damon made sure that their children were installed with the belief that they could do whatever they wanted. That they were capable of taking on the world. Rory always felt a little bit like the gooseberry of the family but not by the fault of anyone other than himself. He was aware from a very young age that he was gay and he struggled to fit in at school. So when his powers started to surface and make him feel more like a ‘freak’, even though the other kids didn’t actually know about them, Rory started to resent the abilities he had.
Education: Rory finished High School but decided against pursuing further education deciding instead that for him to pursue his passion for art that he just had to start on creating work. Now that they are all back in Mystic Falls Rory is now considering going back to college, he knows that getting to study art and hone his skills would only make him better.
Regrets: Rory regrets not going straight into further education when he finished school but he tries not to think about it too much.

He also regrets the way he ended his one long real relationship in his life, Rory pushed them away and ended it because he was scared.

“stop-” she put her hands up. “it’s fine, i just wasn’t expecting anyone.”
Rory kept his back turned, his cheeks warn with embarrassment. “Again I’m really sorry... I wasn’t expecting anyone here.. Can I eh- turn back around yet?”
“Well, the dirt on Mystic Falls is more important than catching up so yes.” She joked.
“Huh!” Rory dramatically clutched at his heart. “Are you trying to mortally wound me? Is that why you’ve came back. to see how much you can hurt me with your words?”
“i gotta say, mystic falls hasn’t changed all that much since the last time i was here.” she stated, the young witch had been in hiding for two years and the small town of mystic falls was still the same boring old town that it used to be. “anyway, what’s new in the world of mystic? give me all the details.”
“All the details? You want me to fill you in on everything that has happened with Mystic Falls before you even ask me how I’m doing? I am upset. No I’m devastated Erica. Devastated.
“I’m kind of in a rush, so if you need to talk, do it fast and be sure to keep up.”
“Right of course.” Rory shook his head, trying his best to keep up as she stalked away. “I was just thinking that you looked a little like you needed a break, like grabbing a coffee or something. But maybe I should just let you get on with whatever is so important.”
