[ to say that elena is stunned would be an understatement. elena knows very little about freya's parents, mostly what elijah chose to confide in her. she knows about the affair with the werewolf, and she knows how that wreaked its own devastating consequences. she listens, rapt, lips parting by the time freya is done. ]
And did it? Buy her time, I mean.
[ freya is here, alive and well, so she imagines something went right ... ]
[ bonnie just listens again. thoughts of mothers that let their children go with ease, vikings persecuting witches, and freya's "immortality" threaten to send her running, but she remains, unblinking. are those the experiences that built this woman sitting in front of them? someone cheated of her life even as it was extended?
[ all of freya's siblings are vampires. they've just finished clearing up why she isn't, but the rest of them are. and yes, there's a hybrid in the mix, but that still doesn't mean ... it's impossible, right?
[She pauses because she doesn't really know how to explain this because ... well, it's really hard to explain.]
Being a hybrid, my brother is a creature that shouldn't exist. He is allowed the benefits and the detriments of both of his natures, and while vampires cannot procreate, werewolves can.

In a way, yes. She needed me to have a child of my own, but I ... thwarted her, in that respect. I wouldn't allow a child of mine to grow up as I had.
[She was very, very adamant about that fact and will pause for a moment to sip her coffee and give herself a chance to compose herself in continue.]
She ended up needing to wait a thousand years for my brother to have a daughter instead.
[Yep. Enjoy that little info bomb. WAIT TILL YOU FIND OUT WHICH BROTHER. =D]

elena blinks. and then blinks some more. ]
I'm confused.

No. Hope is Klaus' daughter.
