[ that's... great. katherine's tightly guarded secret could quite possibly be out there for the entire deerington universe to see, all because her descendent cursed with the doppelgänger gene chose to do a public outing. after spending over 500 years running from the one person who decimated her life out of petty vengeance, katherine has been smart and meticulous in what information she does and doesn't offer. being a vampire has gotten her into dire straits; there's a reason why she doesn't dress up as a vampire for halloween. ]
Are you going to walk around with a sign that says "Hi, I'm Elena, the vampire"?
I said it once. I wanted to be able to help people. I know medically, Rapture is in dire straits. I won't be announcing it every time I talk to someone.
Would you like a gold medal? You want to help people, yet you out yourself as a vampire and in turn out me. Did you expect me to pat you on the back and say it's going to be okay, Elena? I'm so, so proud of you?
You're more of an idiot as a vampire than you were as a human. You've learned nothing from Mystic Falls.
That's the thing, Katherine. We're not in Mystic Falls. Something different tries to kill us every month and it has nothing to do with us being vampires. I'm not justifying it, because it's something I did, and I don't expect anyone to congratulate me or give me an award. I did something that I thought was necessary. I'm going to live with it.
( It's something she frequently forgets, that Katherine is here with her. It's different than when she was in Mystic Falls when she was acutely aware of her existence, even as a human. )
I didn't think about you when I did it. Honestly, Katherine, you're not at the forefront of my mind. I'm not sure anyone here has ever gotten us mixed up.
I get it, Katherine. I put myself in danger and you because you're my ancestor. And Damon, Caroline, and Stefan because of their proximity to me. I broke a rule we've kept going for over over hundreds of years. I could've put everything into jeopardy. And according to Caroline there are hunters here. Maybe I don't know anything anymore Katherine.
[ once again, elena makes a decision and everyone else has to simply live with it. katherine hadn't signed up to deal with the potential ramifications of elena's idiotic decision. deerington may not be mystic falls, which is all the more reason to lay low and be smart.
considering elena apparently doesn't think about her, katherine doesn't feel like giving her more of her time. she'll deal with it herself; she always has. ]
