The funny thing about alternate timelines, is that one single moment can transform absolutely everything. For Elena, it was a Storm that came to pass. For Ethan, it was apparently -- she still hasn't quite managed to put the pieces of the puzzle together, though it starts to become clearer to her the more he alludes to it. She remains standing, at first, just watching him mix together the drinks. The confusion remains in her expression, a subtle thing; soft frown lines creasing her forehead, her lips parted slightly as though she is attempting to formulate words but none of them will come.

They're just not there.

It is only until he places the drinks and the respective bottles at the table Elena moves to sit at the bar along with him, sitting down on one of the stools. She nods wordlessly in answer that it is her first time, but that's not what's -- she can't help that it's not what's on her mind. "The exact moment that you'd left your world?" she asks with trepidation. She isn't sure what that means, but the sense of foreboding grows inside of her, coupled with the very first thing he said to her the moment he saw her. "Ethan, what happened?"

It wasn't just a rabbit hole. It wasn't even a rift. No, it is bigger than that. She can tell.
