he almost doesn't even dignify this with an answer )
She's a centuries-old relic of the place holding us prisoner, who either does know or could impart leagues more than she lets on. And quite frankly, I could do with a little less judgement and a little more common sense from you. ( he may or may not be scathingly referring to how you caused a scene at his girlfriend's party since we're bringing proper conduct up js )
[It's apples and oranges, as far as Fitz is concerned. Damon Salvatore is an unrepentant monster, and more people ought to be willing to stand up and tell him so.]
She's been imprisoned here, tortured. If she's been traumatized, can you really hold it against her? Maybe she knows things but is afraid to say them. She's been victimized. She needs compassion, not more things to keep her awake at night.
( even if leo is right, it hardly changes klaus’ intent nor what he would do to ensure it. his anger does not abate; if anything, that righteousness strengthens. ) I never said I held it against her. What I said was holding her hand through the process has hardly gleaned productive results, and if you're so concerned about taking care of the children here, perhaps look to those who are actually still children.
[ Oh no don't tell Fitz he's right. He's been sanctimonious enough without people enabling it ]
Tough love only works when there's love involved. [ Like when Agent May is absolutely terrifying and gives him nightmares. Because she loves them. If she's capable of love inside her robotic chassis. ] She has no reason to trust us. How many people like us have failed to save her before? If she's not developing, she could be mentally challenged, or under some kind of course, or... [ he doesn't have a third possibility ready, and trails off instead. ]
The... the point is that she's not the one with any power here. And I know who you are. And I know you're working to better yourself. You don't need to lash out.
when he speaks, his voice is tight and angry, searing and cold )
Let me make one thing perfectly clear: I am willing to do whatever it takes to ensure the safety of those I do love, and I will not prostrate to your misbegotten, naive sentimentality because it will help you sleep at night. If you know who I am, then you know exactly what I am willing to do, and if you don't, then that's no one's fault but your own.
