❝Klaus Mikaelson was the monster one would tell their children, he's the villain in everyone's stories, but for me he was the prince who saved me from myself and I think I saved the last bit of hope within him.❞

When he'd gotten home, Bodie managed to talk Henry out of doing anything drastic and life threatening. Of course, Henry was in that entire moody mindset where all that he wanted to do was commit murderous crimes, and normally, Bodie would want to allow Henry to do such a thing but given that Will was no longer here to keep the pair of them in check, Bodie knew that he had to step up a lot more. Bodie knew that he needed to keep more of an eye on Henry, make sure that Henry didn't do anything bad or life threatening. And he knew that going after the Mikaelson's was a life-threatening thing.
There was a part of Bodie that wondered how Will ever manage to control the pair of them, given that it was always hard to control Henry's needs and desires to commit a crime. Though, he supposed, Henry always listened to his brother a lot more than anything else and Bodie was never going to get Henry to do that. Bodie knew that controlling Henry from wanting to do whatever he wanted was going to drive him insane, knowing that Henry could put him in his ass if he wanted to.
"I want to go back out there!" Henry snapped at him after a while. They'd been arguing for a while about what they should do, whether or not Henry should go after the Mikaelson's. "I want to beat either Rebekah or Kol in hopes that they tell me where their fucking brother is."
"Henry," Bodie began, exhausted. "I love you and everything, but is this what Will would want you to do? Risk your life in order to get back at the Mikaelson's? We need to be smart about it. We rushed into it without a decent plan."
"I don't care for a plan, all that I want is to feel Klaus' life slipping from my hands as I drive the white oak stake through his heart." Henry stated.
Bodie felt like he was going insane in some way. He knew that talking to Henry about all of this was something that was going to take years off of his life, he really did wish that Will were still here to help him talk about all of this as a whole. He wished that Will were here, he knew that Will would've been able to calm Henry down a lot better than he would be able to.
"We need to be smart about it." Bodie told. "Klaus is smart, okay, and he'll kill you before you even have a chance to do anything to him."
Henry just gave him a look as if he didn't like anything that was coming out of Bodie's mouth. Henry looked as if he wanted to murder anyone that ever tried to control him and what he wanted. "I don't care, Bodie! William is dead! He's dead and there's nothing that I could've done to save him and it's my fault just as much as its yours!"
Bodie just stared at Henry then. "My fault?"
"Yes!" Henry snapped. "If it wasn't for you and your fucking wolf shit, then my brother would be alive!" He looked as if he wanted to hurt Bodie for simply existing. "I wish that I'd never met you. My brother's death is on you just as much as it's on Klaus'."
