[ The offer still has to be made. Some might have preferred it to walking into a vampire's lair. Or, in this case, her tiny medieval-looking apartment, which doesn't exactly look very lived-in considering she's been here for a month now. A few books on the table, clothes hanging in the wardrobe with a slightly open door, a closed notebook beside the bed. Little signs of someone existing there but not quite living. Not yet.
Opening the door at that tapping, Elena is honestly surprised to see that the woman standing on the other side isn't armed to the teeth. She's still dangerous, those signs are quite clear, but there's not a knife or crossbow in her face. It's a start. And that scent of blood is definitely noticed, the wisp of it tugging at her senses and the hunger that is always there, but she breathes through it and steps back to offer the other woman entry. ]
Thanks for coming.
[ And she is grateful. If they can learn something about how this place may have messed with her abilities, then it's more information than she had before. And if she ends up dead from this... well, she'll know who not to trust if she comes back. But hopefully it won't come to that. Hopefully, she looks enough like a normal girl in her jeans and sweater to take the edge off, no bit of her vampire side showing through. ]
