"That's my line," Wes said, somewhat irritated. "I know you haven't forgotten Caster is here because you literally just explained why this 'take command of the situation' attitude you seem to have here isn't fooling anyone, so stop trying it. This isn't the Clocktower, you know."

He sighed. 

"[i]But,[/i]" he said, fully resigned to the forbidden things he was about to say. "Because I am such a kind, generous soul, I will keep an open mind to your proposal. Provided of course you listen to [i]mine[/i] first."

Wes held up one finger. 

"One. As of right now, this is a hostage situation. Not a partnership. You're going to tell us everything you know then swear under oath that you'll help us instead of selling us out the moment it becomes convenient. Then I'll consider making you an equal partner in this instead of just locking you in a closet for the rest of the Grail War. Two," he said, holding up another finger. "I make the rules. And by that I mean 'I make the rules and Caster enforces them'. Very strictly. We do this my way or not at all, so you'd better ready to get down and dirty with some serious heresy. Once you've agreed, I won't accept any objections or take-backsies. Three-"

Wes' eyes became dark as he outlined the third and final rule of his counter-proposal. 

"At the end of this, the wish is mine. Caster doesn't want it, and I'm not sharing it. This is something we need to be in total, unambiguous agreement on if we're going to work together."
