[ That wolf is really creepy. It stares in a way that's unnerving. He might snap a picture of it sometime, though it would be wholly by accident... Omens know and he doesn't want to risk Dabi's wrath.
And please, as if Allen's much more likely to realize it either until well after the fact. It's just a different brand of idiocy. But boy if someone did and Shouto asked that... he'd get pretty Emotional and fret if that was okay. No promises he won't tear up, he would have before or after Viktor basically suggested the same sort of thing. Did you know he's never been shopping for a bed before? How do you even do that? It's exciting...! ]
Lethal? [ He blinks, startling a little at that. Shouto isn't one to say things that aren't fully substantiated, though he does... misinterpret some things. But this doesn't seem like one of those at all. And it causes Allen to hesitate, weighing that as well. But you see, the thing he wouldn't have explained to Shouto, and hasn't to anyone... ]
In truth... most Exorcists view themselves and how they fight more like that as well I think. At best as a mercy killing, or as destroyers. That there are sacrifices that have to be made, even if it's lives. So I guess that isn't really surprising to me to hear. [ It also fits with that more bleak demeanor Megumi can have. And Shouto might think Exorcists like Allen save because that's how he described it as what he does, but in truth... Allen is the marked exception to the rule. Saving souls is an accidental byproduct the vast majority of people in the world are unaware even happens.
But more telling beyond the brutality in fighting monsters that used to be human, all except for Allen had no qualms at the idea of killing the Noah, who are human. It was an unquestionable necessity to them.
And Allen is quietly sober, gentle in demeanor, but not very happy in admitting that. ]
But he told me he exorcises and wants to do it in order to save people who have become Beasts. "I want to help exorcise as many as I can," he said. [ He repeats Megumi's words to himself as if solidifying that view of him to himself as well. Re-iterating belief. ]
So even if he is a lethal fighter and I don't know if I'm okay with that part of it, if it's like you say... I believe he truly does want to help people who have become Beasts as well and will do what he can to save them. Lives and souls. [ And he sounds dead certain of that. ]
