"Do you really think she could be a heretic?" Josh asked her after she closed and locked their front door.
She sighed, putting her purse down on the shelf they had by their door.
"Perhaps," Lilah said. "It'd make sense how she got all over the world, Mystic Falls, Norway. How would she even know how to track down any trace of the Mikaelsons without magical help? In a world she doesn't know, in a world where she doesn't have contacts?"
"And with what Rebekah said about Lorelle saying it was the 'stupid ring' that brought her all over the world," Josh added, obviously on the same wave length as Lilah.
"Sounds like locator spells to me. And a Bennett witch? It has to be that Bonnie that the Mikaelsons talked about, the powerful witch from Mystic Falls that was friends with the doppelganger and Caroline Forbes. The descendent of a Salem witch, then something about the founding families of Mystic Falls... Gilbert, Donovan, Bennett, Forbes, Fell, Maxwell, Lockwood, Salvatore..." she trailed off, wandering into their kitchen to clean the dishes in the sink.
Josh followed her, a confused face. "You seem to know a lot about that mysterious town you don't remember even driving to," he commented.
He opened their dishwasher and held a hand out to her. As she rinsed off the plates for things that would be hard for the dishwasher to clean itself, he took it and placed it into their dishwasher.
"I've been alive for years, Joshy," Lilah reminded him, turning off the water. She handed him the remaining dishes and then wiped her hands on their hand towel. "You learn a lot of trivia when you've been around long enough."
"So, any applicants come in while I was gone?" Josh asked, changing the subject as she sat up on their counter top.
She shook her head, and he pointed at their coffee machine. Despite it being late, she nodded. Caffeine didn't keep her up anymore anyways.
"Add some of that," she said, pointing at the bottle of Jack Daniels in their alcohol cupboard. "And some peppermint."
"Yes ma'am," chuckled Josh at her request. "Works at a bar all day, then drinks from her personal stash all night."
"Life is more fun when you're drunk," she joked. "Mystery blond came around, though. Found out his name, Roman."
Josh peered over his shoulder at her, his hands still spooning coffee into their coffee machine.
