Robin rests his face in his hands and gives a long, tired breath. A situation like this only throws into relief what Robin already knows -- that when a situation calls for strengths, and not guile, he is hopelessly outclassed. Still, Ishiah is his own partner, and that's what keeps him in the room and listening. He only wishes that Ishiah would have brought whiskey, and not water.
"And in a few weeks, Dean could die because of it," he points out. Maybe he isn't quite getting it because he has no powers as such of his own; nor any greed, like Hobgoblin's, to get ahold of them. "That is the only way Ishiah can look at it. You can't expect a peri to feel any other way. I'm sure that he will do whatever he can to help you, including abide by your wishes, in this case. But that doesn't mean that your decision is justified. I'll be upfront If it were me, if it were my memories threatening to take over, to turn me back into ... just, if it were me, I'd have found a healer, and I'd have had him put a kill-switch in my brain. I'd have rather died. But I've lived a long life. And a good one."
