[ So unfortunate for Shouto that while there's a similarity to Crown Clown's wild and also mutated outrage from before with now... this is also something else entirely. In neither case were they hurting Allen despite their appearance, twisting not in malice against him but in pain and animal rage themselves at the attack against their very essence. Against "Allen's" very essence.
The rot.
It makes no move to follow him, the mass of feathers coiling for a moment as if watching him like a living thing in a way that's entirely impassive; moved not even a little by his cry of pain, and with the same sort of eyeless intensity as Timcanpy. They relax after no further attack, losing their razor edge, and retreat back within themselves. Retreated like an animal to lick its wounds, and squirming still from where they seem to spill out of the old gut wound on Allen's stomach that never looked like it healed fully. Where a closer look would reveal they're more like something that's from within that's escaped instead of blood. Shifting ceaselessly as if trying to find a way knit the body whole again, even as there seems to be a necrotic taint, a greyness, spreading from the edges of the wound.

Almost protectively, as Allen is out cold. ]
