          katherine pierce is a lawyer, yes, but despite being a lawyer, she hardly had anything to do with criminal law. thank goddess because she didn't even want to have something to do with criminals and katherine really hoped that stayed the way. today, however, she found herself in court because of a criminal, a fraud. fortunately, she has been invited as a witness and not as that person's lawyer (poor people who actually had to defend a person like him). the job could have been done by another colleague as well but her superiors had decided she should be the one who is going to make the statements.

          the prospect of wasting her precious time because of a scammer (and the knowledge someone else could have done the job as well) didn't amuse her. nonetheless, she wore a professional smile on her lips the entire time, her statement perfectly prepared, and her appearance flawless - she didn't expect anything less from herself. who knows? perhaps her superiors had a good reason why she should be the one to represent her law firm's interests.

          when it was finally katherine's turn, after waiting for half an hour, she quickly and completely made the statement and let out a sigh of relief when she was allowed to leave after twenty minutes. at least the afternoon wasn't completely wasted. nonetheless, she didn't leave the court immediately because she had seen a vending machine and she was thirsty so she bought a cup of coffee. not really her taste but what could be expected from a vending machine? she's going to help herself to a good cup of coffee once she's back in her office.

          katherine took a sip and slowly walked towards the exit, her heels echoing through the large and almost empty entrance hall. but that wasn't the only sound. she heard someone approaching and turned around, only to see one of the detectives.

          "i'm sorry, i only bought a cup of coffee and now i'm already on my way out," she explained, thinking she might get into trouble because she took too long to leave the building.

At first glance, Katherine almost found herself falling for it. Her heart - long since stopped beating for anyone outside of the spite she felt for Klaus - stirred in that annoying way that only Stefan Salvatore could bring and her shoulders nearly fell with her guard. “Stef-” Then Katherine paused, her brows furrowed. Were it not that she had played her doppelganger numerous times, hell, practically written the book when it came to deception she might have fallen for his trick. He got the face and the wardrobe right, but the confidence gave it away. Even on his most humanity lacking days, Stefan never quite achieved that arrogant hint. “Silas,” Katherine corrected, the irritability only thinly veiled in her words, “What a lovely surprise” | &. @firstimmortal liked!

“Is this some weird ripper thing?”

“As your sober sponsor, I think we might need to meet up for some bunny rehab.”

“ what ?? no ‘ bless you ? ’ i’ll remember that . ”

       April looked up apologetically, hands going up in surrender. “I wasn’t aware we were holding grudges over a sneeze?” She teased, taking a playful step closer to the other. “I’m sorry.. Bless you. Do you forgive me now?”
