( Bonnie lets go of and brings Danny behind her when the commotion started up. )
Hey.
( Bonnie raises her voice. )
Nobody did this. If we blame anyone, it's the hunters who opened fire in a meeting. Isaac didn't do this. Della didn't do this. The hunters brought their own war.
[The witch looks like she's about to argue that, but Isaac holds up his hands before they can, taking himself out of the equation.]
It's okay.
[Isaac doesn't mind taking the blame, if that's where they need to put it. And also, he doesn't need to be here for this. This is witch business, and he's done what Danny's asked of him.
He made sure Bonnie stayed safe.]
I should go. Let you all do what you need to do.
[Eliza makes a face at that, before nodding. "Let me at least get you a clean shirt. I'm sure I have one of Arthur's around here somewhere."
Isaac turns back to Bonnie, because while he knows he should keep the connection - connections like this are valuable, and Danny might need Isaac's help sooner rather than later, he can't help but wonder how it would sound to offer her his number in front of a room full of angry witches.
A younger, more brazen Isaac might have done it anyway. This one at least knows how to read a room.]
( She doesn't need to be judged. This is witch business. And werewolf business. Isaac was there for them. So, she slides her phone out of her back pocket and hands it right to him. )
[Well that sure worked out in his favor. He'll do just that and then send himself a text so he has hers. Better to know so he can pick up.
After that, Eliza returns with his shirt, and after a quick change, he'll head out into the streets and back to the hotel.
Then Eliza turns to the rest of the witches. "Alright, the lot of you off my lawn. Go home. Take stock of what you need."
One of the witches looks to Danny, and Danny swallows as it sets in that this is his job now. He's in charge. He glances briefly to Eliza before nodding.]
What she said. When we decide what we're doing next, we'll let you know.
[The witches seem hesitant, but they do as they're told.]
( Bonnie eyes the other hostile witches while Isaac takes care of changing. And then she looks to Danny, here if he needs anything. But, he takes charge like he has to. )
Wait for Eliza's word.
( If anything, Eliza is now his lieutenant and witches don't need an 18 year old's number. Not right now. She even closes the door behind them and latches the door. )
[Everyone will be okay, except for the people who are not. He goes and slumps down onto Eliza's couch, running his hands over his face as he tries to figure out what to do next.]
But what are we going to do?
[Eliza glances over to Bonnie, before resting her hands on her hips. "I think we might need to get you ready to leave town."]
You will need to leave. You're a target, now, heading your coven. But, it's up to you, if you want to - ( She looks to Eliza ) identify your parents and your sister. If you disappear, they might assume you were lost in the chaos. But, you could say goodbye, if you wanted.
[Little does he know, they're not going to find his mother's body. It'll get chalked up to a fire and say that her body burned, but he will insist on burying his father and sister.]
[He doubts he'll get much, but it seems better than being conscious. Eliza nods, before turning back to Bonnie. "There's space for you too, love. Just let me know when you're ready to get some rest."]
Yes. We led some witches through the tunnels underneath, and others listened when we told them to stay inside. But, the Knightsbridge coven's founding family, everyone but the youngest son, they're dead.
( She probably remembers Bonnie talking about it, maybe Facetiming with him in the background. )
Ryan is new, and even though he could do well learning the ropes, I don't think it should be in witch territory. Maybe when I know where we'll settle next.

If you need me, Eliza knows how to reach me.

Put your number in here.

Then ... I'll do whatever you think is best.

Is there somewhere I can sleep?

( And then she steps out front outside Eliza's front door. She is long overdue a call to Caroline Forbes. )
no subject
Bonnie, thank god. Are you okay?
no subject
( She does need to catch her up, doesn't she? )
no subject
[That sounds ... super terrible.]
Is there anyone left?
no subject
( She probably remembers Bonnie talking about it, maybe Facetiming with him in the background. )
no subject
[Whether she truly knew them or not, they were Bonnie's friends.]
Are you sure you don't want me to come out there? Because I will pack up Ryan and compel my way out a private jet if you need me to.
no subject
( Just not yet. )
How is everything there?
no subject
[But then again, it can be hard to tell because:]
I think he might be the most laconic person I've ever met.

( Paint her a word picture. )
no subject
[Does that make any sense? She feels like that makes a little bit of sense.]
no subject
( More? It sounds like more. )
no subject
[This shouldn't be a maybe kind of scenario.]
Definitely thoughtful, just ... Matt might have been chattier, believe it or not.
no subject
( Has that come out? )
no subject
[But she does like what she has gotten to know.]
no subject
( Joke's on them! He really won't! )
