"You're right. I don't know any of this. But I want to help you anyway you want." He looks at Eliot. People have tried to scare him off before. Usually using that line on the cop side of him. But never have they been as qualified as Eliot to actually do it. But despite that he trusts Eliot. He trusts that he won't hurt him. Then the implication of what Eliot said about people trying to turn him into a weapon makes Danny angry.

"You're not a tool or a thing and I'd go hunt down any guide who tried to make you that myself." His voice is low, angry and there is a determination in them that says he speaks the truth. Eliot is his. UIf Eliot doesn't want them to do something more out of this, Danny will respect that, but that doesn't mean Eliot will lose Danny's protection. "And if they think they can turn you into a weapon then it is a good thing you killed them."
