she’s not sure what’s worse about 2010 — the fact that the jonas brothers are still on the outs, or that technology is only a step above stone tablets. her phone’s basically a pretty looking brick and mostly useless ever since they pulled a BACK TO THE FUTURE and stumbled into the past. she knows the rules, knows she’s supposed to be as inconspicuous as possible and keep her secrets, but that won’t stop her from scoping out the hotspots in mystic falls that she’s only ever read about in history books. everything’s different. from the town square, to the salvatore mansion ( not school ) to the mystic grill where she currently finds herself. elbows rest against the bartop as she leans forward, inspecting the labels on some of the bottles. booze, at least, has stayed pretty consistent. when she gets her bourbon, on the rocks because she’s a psychopath, she knocks it back salvatore style before turning to the person closest to her. “ hey, you. ” she reaches out, touching their elbow. “ buy me a drink, and i’ll give you the winning powerball numbers. you’ll have to wait for 2030 to play but trust me — twenty six million dollars is worth the wait. ”
