[This isn't a conversation he wants to have, but he's not sure when else it'll occur, so - he takes the coward's way out and sends her a call / voicemail:]

[Every month or so, the Fleet stops along various planets - and this one is no exception to the rule. Although it's a small one, with bustling crowds that seem to ooh and aah the members of the Fleet, it resembles Europe's narrow, cobblestoned streets.

At the end of one of these streets is a small waffles and coffee stand, delivering freshly-baked waffles and fancy variations of coffee - and of course, no black tea. Stefan's more than used to that by now, which is why he orders a plain waffle. Turning back to Caroline, he gestures towards the menu.]

[Sometime over the course of the summer, Freya Mikaelson arrives on the steps of the Salvatore School. What's she doing there? No one seems to know. But she's recognizing at this point that there are gaps in her memory. Things missing that are not where they should be.

Why is she looking into the Gemini coven? Why are her brothers dead? Why does she have pictures of a girl from the Salvatore School?

As she wanders her way up to the front door, she can feel the wards and they are not necessarily happy to see her. While she does walk up to nudge the door open, and nothing happens, she's not going to test the threshold further than that. Instead, she calls inside, trying to get someone's attention.]
