Spike's dead. That probably makes people like you happy, right? Spike and Bridget, whose parents were killed in front of her. That's the only reason she threw up the boundary spell.
I don't know. You're here, you're a hunter, he'd be interested.
( But, what would he do. What would he really do. When he turns, William does the same, and under the low light of the hole-in-the-wall London bar, this close to him, William sees for the first time that he'd be interested, too. But not because he's a hunter. )
I don't think he'd want to actually talk to a hunter that Allison hadn't vetted herself first. At least, that would be my thought if I was a werewolf playing with fire.
[But that being said.]
Honestly, unless I intended to kill you - which for the record, I don't - I think he'd probably tell you to stay off my radar. Not let me buy you a drink.
[Oh, look, he's drunk enough to start semi-flirting.]
You can get my next. ( He shouldn't stay leaned forward or close. ) I'm not easily killed, if you were looking to end my life tonight. I could take you.
I thought we did. We certainly didn't organize assaults like this unless it was something really big and really bad. A prince of Hell trying to invade the world or some shit. Winchester level bullshit.
[Which might mean nothing to William, but most hunters understood the implications.]
Not a harmless town full of witches. I thought there was something wrong.

[The "P" lands with a pop as he lifts a finger to signal the bartender for them both.]
So are you. Congrats.
no subject
( He didn't ask for all that. He does use quotation marks next, though. )
"Garrett" wasn't here with a bachelor party, was he?
no subject
[Complete with that same pop on the "P".]
He was there for the same reason I was.
no subject
( Just to keep things clear. )
no subject
[It doesn't justify what happened to Bridget but he feels the need to point that out.]
I wanted to talk Bridget down. I didn't want her to die.
no subject
( He may not like what you think you stand for, but he will drink the drink you bought him. So. Maybe that's not taking a stand. )
no subject
[They got it, for the most part. He knocks back the whiskey, swallowing hard as he picks at the nuts on the bar.]
It wasn't perfect, but they think it made a point.
no subject
( He peruses the small menu. )
no subject
[And if he intends to say that, right to Monroe's face, at his next available opportunity.]
no subject
( He'll get past harping on this. Just let him get it out.
He does indicate for two more shots and -- whatever beer they have on tap. Two. )
no subject
[He could have been in London for perfectly innocent reasons thank you very much.]
But the other two, no. We shouldn't have been there.
no subject
I believe you did this for the right reasons. Once.
no subject
But that's not the point.]
How do you know I don't now?
no subject
( But, their philosophy isn't his. )
I could tell Isaac you're here in the bar with me.
no subject
And what would he do about it, do you think?
no subject
( But, what would he do. What would he really do. When he turns, William does the same, and under the low light of the hole-in-the-wall London bar, this close to him, William sees for the first time that he'd be interested, too. But not because he's a hunter. )

no subject
( Oh look at.. that. )
You can get my next. ( He shouldn't stay leaned forward or close. ) I'm not easily killed, if you were looking to end my life tonight. I could take you.
no subject
[He lifts his hand to flag the bartender again.]
Good thing I'm not trying to kill you.
no subject
(He finishes the first drink and downs the other whiskey he'd ordered. )
What happened after? You and Garrett took off.
no subject
[And honestly, he was not in the best head space so he let himself be lead.]
I had to find my dad. Make sure he was okay.
no subject
( Well that hits viscerally. He's here drinking, but maybe from everything and not finding his dad in danger. )
no subject
[He looks up with a bitter smirk.]
Already towing the company line, like his choice to join up isn't part of the reason why Luke is dead.
no subject
( Does he want to talk about this? He asks anyway! )
