Summary: A catch-all log for Mirrors and Reals during the reverse espionage event. Anything from Mirrors leading their daily lives, over Reals reacting to the show, to Reals and Mirrors exchanging messages goes here. Just label your locations and sides accordingly!
The Story:

Your own medicine is worth twice the sweetness in the bush, that is what they say! Here is my plan, now make sure you listen well, or you get it wrong, and then I would need to pair you all up, for only two even wrongs set my head back on right, and we've no time for such things, no time at all, do we?

As mighty as the sharpest blade, as stout as the hardest shield, a spool of thread woven from hearts of gold. It must exist, and I must have it! She'll do worse to my head if I search, but you'll help, won't you? I will let you see, and you will be my eyes! All good things come tomorrow - then I'll let you see, and you'll be my eyes, and when it's all done you'll use your own mouths to tell my personal ears all you know, won't you?

All of Wonderland's mirrors are suddenly working in reverse. The Real side can see everything, and the Mirror side is left with nothing but their own reflections. Details of the event can be found here.

[The blood doesn't deter him in any way, and he doesn't seem sorry he interrupted her.]

Then don't do things that would make someone watch you.

[It's simple enough to him.]

[exprimere]

I wasn't. [ she sags, weary not from the exertion of magic -- expression only feeds itself -- but with having to deal with... ] Have you seen Elena?

[notsogryffindor]

[She can insist all she wants, but exploding glass is bound to get anyone's attention. He doesn't have reason to press the issue further though, so he doesn't.]

I haven't. Why?

[exprimere]

This is her idea of fun.

[ her drive to hide and to be unseen poked at by a vampire with nothing better to do. ]

I'd like to return the favor and show her mine...

[ bonnie doesn't bother cleaning up the mess, just moves to her worktable to start on a new spell. ]

[notsogryffindor]

[Prompted by the vaguest sense of curiosity, James follows.]

And what is yours?

[exprimere]

Ruining hers.

[ bonnie knows how to hurt vampires, sure-- does she really know how to hurt elena? ]

I'm just not sure how, yet.

[notsogryffindor]

[Someone else might be more put off by this, but James' apathy makes him a great person to bounce immoral ideas off of.]

Because you don't know what to do? Or because there are too many possibilities?

[exprimere]

Wanting to hurt her means I care.

[ she stops, turning to watch james a little closer. there's a moment, here, where she's deciding whether to speak the truth or keep moving in vague halves of it. ]

Which will satisfy her. [ truth it is. ]

[notsogryffindor]

Does it?

[He cares about very little, but has always had a capacity for hurting others. Huh. It's an interesting thought.]

I suppose it depends whether hurting her will be more satisfying than her reaction. Will it?

[Is it worth it?]

[exprimere]

[ another beat as bonnie works through it. rendering elena physically powerless would provide some measure of satisfaction, certainly. powerless for a moment, in control forever. ]

No. God, if I could just ... desiccate her, she'd be out of everyone's hair.

[ bonnie doesn't think in spirals, not yet. that's a different woman years ahead of this one. this bonnie is a hammer. she moves in two directions. ]

[notsogryffindor]

Unless Her Majesty chooses to Remake her.

[He isn't against desiccation - it's merely pointing out a possible flaw.]

But then again, perhaps she would be Made better the second time.

[exprimere]

It's not killing her. Technically.

[ maybe bonnie's willing to cycle through elena's until she gets the one that's juuuust right. ]
