[This is frustrating in an entirely different way, but it's nothing he can blame on Ray. He's taken charge of the agenda, which means that now he has to fill the roles. A plan is made and maybe this time there won't be a mistake.
His face hurts, his whole body hurts and he can't believe, he still can't believe, that this is what he has to go through twice.]
What do you think? You're the one who knows how things turn out.
[ loose and clearly exhausted, ray just shrugs. he's done trying so hard with snart -- not only has he imagined they'd progressed a little, he really thought they were becoming a little team. now he's at a total loss. ]
[Does he have to clarify that? Explain that? Of course he does. Leonard finally turns around, lifting one leg up to prop it on the seat and gingerly touching his face with one hand, finger following the outline of a bruise.]
I always thought I'm the only one who can handle Mick. But I failed him. Chronos is on me. It's all on me. And when you're from, I'm gone. So, you wanna be his partner now?
The way I see it, either we all want to be a team, or not. There's no partners, for me. Chronos is all of our faults.
[ ray shakes his head, lets his arms fall to his sides, and takes a step backward toward the door. ]
I shouldn't have pushed you like I push him, I get that now. But I don't think either of us can help him alone. So my question to you is: do you want to be a team, now?
[ he opens the door and gets a foot out before turning back. ]

Just ... think about it. I'll be around.
