I know what I married into. And I know where I came from. Something about this just feels -
(Worse. )
And forget all the collateral damage, witches, who if they don't have to power to survive, than that's Darwinism, because I should care about them. I took an oath to care about them, to do no harm. Under my knife. ( When he is their doctor. ) But, all I can think about is you. How, I don't want to lose you. How, for who knows how long your parents, who were monsters, aren't even your parents and are now bigger monsters. And, I would burn it all down, burn the entire world down. For you.
[Honestly, Ezra puts more net good out into the world than he does, when he's actually allowed to do his job and not being caught up in his family's bullshit. All he's ever wanted was to get them free of it so that he could do that.
But they just have to make a very big mess before they can do that.]
Look, you don't have to do any of this. The four of us can handle it.
You can't. Not mathematically. Three viable targets. If you think I'm letting you go after anyone alone. Or, with Jaqueline as your partner-in-witch-crime, or the walking Polo. It's you and me. Always. Until the end. In a shower of sparks. Except, you and me, we're growing fucking old together. In witch - old, like, MaCleod old. You're not dying and I'm not going anywhere. End of discussion.
( He gets a bit carried away, but he means it all. )
...Or, say whatever you want to say, whenever you want to say it because you have equal parts in this. Have you thought which prong we need to hit? Or, who we're enlisting to help? Five of us can't carry six targets, can we.
No. But I have already started on the making sure they can't come back part. Sam Winchester was involved in my favor for Allison Argent and I've got him and his brother hunting down the original corpses.
[If there are corpses, that is. He's not going to comment on whether or not they're growing old together, because he's not about making promises he can't keep.]
I figured it was worth giving them a boon in return. And our little venture into the swamp was successful. So it might be worth it to give Sam and Dean some time. But as far as order goes, I'm not sure.
[Maybe they'd do it better the second time around. But with that, they finish their drinks and head to their temporary home for the evening so David can take a real shower.]

If Dean and Sam Winchester are involved, than so are Elena and whoever else is with them. Maybe I should reach out.

[Not that he thinks they owe him anything, but of any of them want a little revenge and want to take the risk, then who is he to deny them.]
I could reach out to Jo.
