Hey, Gale. Damon's no longer here. But, Caroline is. I got a trade-off. Just thanking you again for everything with Damon. He spent two more months completely avoiding me, but at least he was alive to avoid me. And, I have it on good authority that he returns. Back home. So, maybe I had nothing to worry about.

Maybe I'll never know.

You did what you could to protect your loved ones with the information you had, my friend.

I’m sorry for your loss — and for the difficulties that preceded it.

[ perhaps he could have done more as a wizard and as a friend. he and damon were closer in the other life than this one, but he’d like to think he and stefan are dearer to each other here. this disclosure might prove as much. ]

Thank you. Not looking at is as a loss. He still has a life to get back to. And, probably a girlfriend.

Well, that all sounds rather wonderful actually.

[ a beat. ]

Speaking of, Caroline mentioned you, when we reunited.

She did, did she?

( Klaus told him about what they are in his time - or leading up to it. That they fall in love with one another. He's wondering if that's what he means, but he doesn't ask specifically. )

Mm. It didn’t sound straightforward.

[ leaving room for stefan to elaborate, if he wishes, or simply to change the subject. ]

What did she mention exactly, Gale?

Only the roughest of outlines, my friend.
How are you managing, with her sudden re-appearance?

She's my best friend and she accepted an apology I owed her. Not that I want anyone here, but if there is anyone, besides my brother, the person you want on your side is Caroline.
