"Maybe nothing. Maybe the whole fucking town because a fire that big is gonna be insanely hard to keep in check once it gets started. There's nothing in all the world to say we can't die again in this place, Raylan, is that really a risk you wanna take?"
Oh, but it doesn't stop there. If there's one thing Klaus is good at, it's panicked babbling.
He's shaking his head by the end of what the other man has said. "Look, speaking as someone who has someone and something to blame for every fucked up thing in my head, it doesn't help. My dad fucked me up royally, Raylan, and I have blamed him for it all for my whole life. And I thought that, you know, if it weren't for him, I could get my shit together. But he died and nothing changed. Actually, he died and everything changed, but not in the way I thought it would, not for better. Because the fucking Apocalypse happened instead!" He throws his hands in the air. "'Cuz fuck it, why not, right? And it was my sister that caused it. Because Dad never let her play with us as kids...basically." He waves one hand dismissively. Everything with Vanya is so much more complicated than that, but in the easiest-digestible nutshell.... that was kind of the thing.
"My point is, as great as having something to throw blame at sounds, it doesn't fucking fix anything! " Still in that sort of no-thoughts-only-action movement, he reaches up to frame Raylan's face between his hands, "And neither will razing the whole town to the ground."
