[ elena is, in fact, one of those people who tried to think of the smartest course of action: a fool-proof plan, as if such a thing exists her. but not the best plan in the world is worth waverly and others getting hurt. for better and for worse, she is ruled by her heart and this is not right.

she can't expect wynonna to sit back and do nothing while waverly is suffering. ]

We did. We're in this together, all of us. [ hurting one of them is hurting all of them, that's what you do for your friends. ]

(if jon had told his story, she would have understood. as much as wynonna wanted to, she couldn't save willa in the end. the only way to save her was to kill her -- what would her friends think of her if they knew? she knows both jon and elena come from worlds with no win situations....but still.)

We are. And I was glad you guys came in when you did -- I would have been fucked and not in the fun way if you guys hadn't joined in.

[ jon frowns as he looks down between the three of them, thinking back to the fight, to how he lost all control and snapped in anger to see- to see elena hurt and know wynonna was in danger too. in the end, he wouldn't have stopped anything at all only postponed it perhaps, which is what they ultimately needed but they had no way of knowing they would be saved. it's a sobering reminder. ]

I believe we were all nearly fucked... in the not fun way. [ he saw red so brightly that he hadn't even realized who was leading them away, and he glances at elena. ] Were those the ones we helped?

[ elena gives a nod by way of confirmation. ]

Three of them.

[ not the rest. the other demons she knows, but they weren't at the heart of the attack, so she has no explanation. she looks to wynonna, as they haven't had a chance to tell her or waverly, but it's right up team human's alley. ] The Veiled Order tried to kidnap some of those demons earlier. Jon and I were able to stop them before they could. [ but it's still... it's not good. they have enough to deal with. the veiled order on top of it is not needed. ]

A couple were ones I've befriended. I didn't save them or anything -- but I've been trying to make friends with them. They seem to hate Barbas as much as we all do. That might be useful.

(in the end she had worked with the revenants against bulshar -- sometimes you have to find allies in the most unlikely of places.)

[nighted]

Might be the best way to return Lucifer to power with their help. They're stronger, and they're invested. We should continue to make allies out of them.

[ they have the resources that sinners aren't quite afforded even if they're trapped here too as much as they are. ]

[buried]

If we can do that — if we can help Lucifer in that way, it might be the first time we have real leverage on our side to change things.

[ none of them want lucifer back so that they can return to his status quo, either. ]

[middlefinger]

It's true. Sometimes you have to work with an enemy to get what you want.

(wynonna doesn't like lucifer, but if they can get an upperhand....it could make for real change.)
