"Ric..." Damon gave him a worried look, not wanting him to get in trouble. That was Damon's job. "I don't know why. I mean, I don't think Kol did it himself--he was too upset I didn't know him. And Elijah looked....surprised, as much as Elijah ever looks anything, so I don't think he did. Klaus really isn't fond of me, either, which, admittedly, I did try to fuck things up for him, but...why would he want Stefan to go have fun with instead of me, when he doesn't even know me. Unless he does."

Which wasn't all that flattering, either, actually.
