[ It's cool, Gavin. Someone should probably resent her for that. Because she definitely got Hank to believe it was for the best. ]
Look, I appreciate the concern. But we've got it figured out.
[ Elijah chuckles. Oh, he's gonna do it. He doesn't give a shit about intruding on an alpha's territory or claim. Just because Hank is Gavin's alpha doesn't mean he knows what's best. ]
I'm sure you do. But my brother should have some options, shouldn't he? I'm certain I could come up with a better alternative to whatever you have in your basement, Lieutenant. No offense.
[ Eli doesn't deign that statement with a response. Gavin is right of course. He'll do it anyway. He's gotta protect his little brother somehow. Hank can kinda get it. He wouldn't trust hims either, if he were in Elijah's shoes. ]
Look, all that's pretty far away. If Ezra wants to spend the next full moon on his own, I won't stop him. but it's his choice. I haven't forced anything onto him.
[ Eli can definitely see the effect that name has on Gavin. It's a little pathetic, really. Is this all werewolf influence or what? He'll have to do a bit more research. ]
Well, if you need anything, I'm always here. With infinite resources, by the way.
[ Elijah smiles, almost honest. He makes sure not to look at either of them while he does, of course. Somehow even Hank feels a little affection towards Eli, and he doesn't even like the guy by a long shot.

[ Uh, yes offense? ]

You're gonna do it anyway, no matter what we say. Whatever, if you wanna waste some of your fortune on it go wild.
[ Bro... he wants to be around Hank. Like. Come on. ]

Look, I'm not doin' any of that alone while this is still new. But we'll figure it all out next full moon.
[ Don't fuss over him!! ...well Hank can, but. ]

Yeah, yeah, Show off. [ Pause. ] But... thanks.
[ He knows this is just Eli's convoluted way of showing he cares, anyway. ]

They'll figure it out. Together. ]
