The Story:

In a few months time, Bela would mark her second anniversary here. Well, she mightn't really mark it with a special celebration or anything, but she wouldn't forget it either. What she would also never forget that each day in Wonderland meant that she had a chance of living a life; albeit one that was threatened by events and other residents. It was still Bela's best chance and she was going to treat it like that.

Like most days, she can be found in the kitchen in the morning or afternoon for food. Maybe even out in the garden for a walk when the weather was perfect for it. There was even the occasional venture onto the roof of the mansion where it was the ideal place to view the stars at night. Bela never really went out beyond the mansion, except for the gardens and occasionally, the checkerboard hills. The routine that she had established for herself worked and aside from the occasional hiccup from an event, she didn't really have to change much about it.

The library was another spot that she found herself going to when she felt like it, before heading to one of the tea rooms for some quiet. Keeping herself busy was important to Bela, just as vital as breathing. It helped to distract from her fate back home- a fate which was pretty much sealed for good.

[The idea of doppelgangers was only really cemented for Bela when she came to Wonderland. Not only was she mistaken for Rose, there was another from a different world. So she was pretty much used to it by now and had learned to deal with it without getting too aggravated.

She recognises Katherine when the other woman approaches her, but not as Katherine. The only name that Bela associated with her was Elena.]

I'm afraid I am not your friend. I only look like her. [She'd love to meet her doppelgangers face to face.] My name is Bela and I think we've spoken before, but you mightn't remember your time here. You're Elena, yeah?

[delusive]

[Under other circumstances, Katherine would let people assume she was Elena and be done with it but she imagines that if Elena does show up, it could backfire in her face because last time Elena was her, she had the nerve to out her publicly when all she was doing was using her name to avoid Klaus. It was totally harmless little lie for her safety and really she was totally behaving herself which Elena didn't seem to get.

Katherine would much rather introduce herself properly if it suited the situation and this was one of those times especially since it wasn't over the network] We have? Oh— sorry, it's not Elena. My name is Katherine.

[onsilksheets]

Katherine? [An eyebrow goes up as Bela looks her over.] Well, you're either Elena's identical twin or a doppelganger.

Please accept my apologies for the mistake. I never actually met Elena in person, only spoke to her over the network.

[delusive]

[She nods slightly] Yeah, it's something like that—

It's fine, looks like we both mistook each other for someone else. It's nice to meet you Bela.

[onsilksheets]

A pleasure to meet you as well, Katherine.

[ She offers her a polite smile. ]

I believe that there are a few people from your world here as well. Have they been in contact with you?

[delusive]

Oh yeah, I definitely got in contact with a few of them already. [she smiles, before tacking on a follow up inquiry] You're acquainted with them?

[onsilksheets]

I wouldn't say well acquainted but we've spoken at least once. Having people that you know here can be helpful I think.

But I suppose that depends on whether or not you get along with them in the first place.

[delusive]

I assume that's from mistaking you too? [she pauses, nodding at that despite how most people from home hated her and wanted her dead but such is her life] It does help though, having people here. I definitely agree with that.

I get along with a few of them at least, so it's not too bad. [except not really but she isn't going to say that either]

[onsilksheets]

They did mistake me. [but she was quick to identify herself as not the person they thought she was. ]

Well hey, that's good. I'm glad for you. [ Bela was being sincere with her words as well. funny how that could happen. ]

What's it like where you're from? I don't know a lot about it.

[ Aside from the whole vampire thing. ]

[delusive]

Well at least it was an easy misunderstanding to clear up—

Honestly, I'm glad too because that would make staying this place pretty awkward. [she smiles though really that couldn't be even further from the truth with her enemies here] As for where I'm from— what do you know about Mystic Falls so far?

[onsilksheets]

What I do know is that it's a small town in Virginia, though I've never heard of it. I'll put it down to different universes or whatever.

I also know that vampire exist. But I'm not sure of how many there are in total.

[delusive]

Ah, so you know about that too, huh? Well there are a few here but outside of vampires existing that's about as exciting as it gets.

[onsilksheets]

Exciting, as well as dangerous. Which is stating the obvious I know. [But it might be less dangerous than her own world perhaps.]

Have you lived there all of your life?

[delusive]

Yeah, it's a definitely a bit of both. [she gives a slight shrug]

I haven't lived there all my life— it was more a temporary stop while on my travels.

[onsilksheets]

Yeah? Can I ask about whereabouts you have traveled to?

Maybe we have been to some of the same places.

[delusive]

Various places in Europe and a few different states too. How about you?

[onsilksheets]

Europe, the Middle East, and parts of Asia. Wherever my work takes me really.

But I do take the time out for the occasional holiday.

[delusive]

Oh? What kind of what is it that you do?
