I think Brandish's negotiation will go like this. She will offer to help him get fairy heart in exchange to sparing the fairy tail members. She thinks that August is unstoppable and has stated that his loyalty to Zeref is set in stone. I don't think that August will be persuaded to just pull back with nothing in return. I think Brandish will offer him help in exchange to perhaps sparing Lucy at the least.
