[ there's something to be said about the stubborn hope he had been clinging to that maybe jenna would show up before that week was up. he knows how this ship works and how if they went, there was always a chance that something could go wrong and he feels the need to protect elena so fiercely even if she is a vampire now and thus actually has the upper hand but this ship can do mean things to anyone and— he just worries. to be entirely fair, the fact that jeremy was staying behind is something ric refused to budge on, he can handle being with elena, if it had been elena and jeremy going with him, he's pretty sure he would have made a number of stupid decisions that he shouldn't if they run into anything.
besides, someone needed to explain to jenna if she managed to find her own way back. ric manages to grab another bag of blood for elena just in case and shoves it into his bag along with his cross bow, one of the damn guns from gunnery and a hand stake shooter. it's probably overkill but it won't kill him to be prepared.
might even save his life. ]
Ready as we'll ever be. There's another blood bag in my backpack if you need it. [ it's then that he moves to get into the lift. ] We need to stick together.
sometimes i just enjoy how i have icons that are perfect for this occasion.
