[ Timcanpy may not see corruption when it takes root in a person like Allen can, but being an omen, even if it's not his own Sleeper... he rouses from his own quiet grieving the moment he realizes Shouto's fire isn't stopping, even after Dabi cuts his off. And he startles, quickly spiraling up in front of his face and trying to get his attention. Moments away from one really good headbutt or a bite—
But Kizu appears full force, and he dips aside as she tackles the boy to the ground. Watching for a moment as she menaces him into letting go of his fire -- and as he buries his face into her fur and finally lets go. So wingbeats slow, watching that scene unfold with the subdued and quiet patience of a bystander. Good, that's good. She'll be able to reach him better than Tim could. Allen's friend will be alright.
They'll all be alright, even if it hurts.
The golem turns then to look at Dabi until he locks his gaze. With the same kind of quiet intensity as before, but not quite so fierce. Deep and soulful, studying the older brother, but also as if to ask -- and so very subtly imply -- you'll help, won't you? You're also better suited for that than Tim. Allen knew that too.
You owe Allen that.
He whisks away then, spiraling down and snapping up the crystalline fragment left behind by Allen's body with a wide and toothy mouth that splits open suddenly where before he had none. Gulping it down into seemingly-- nowhere? before quickly zipping back up and gaining height. Just like that.
Safekeeping Innocence is something he's done before, and doing so with Allen's is no different. He'll guard it until he reappears in the world and it can find its way back to him and become his left arm again then. Left and right, black and white, "monster" and human; a dual existence in precarious balance to save both. Allen would be nothing without his duality and Tim helps maintain that.
Pausing slightly before he disappears, he looks back one more time to Kizu and Shouto. Catching the eye of the snow leopard if he can and just holding it. One long, measured and important sort of moment, some kind of sober understanding-- and then he's gone. A pinpoint of yellow within seconds as he wings his way towards the Farther Shores. ]
and this is where I dip out )o)
