[ He lets him jerk away, lets him stumble through the lodestone's space away from him. He's not going to force Atsumu into anything; not anymore. Barnaby hadn't appreciated his sticking around, and Amos is at least trying to not make the same mistake twice.
(Well, aside from the obvious, but forcing the Kenoma into someone isn't exactly a mistake if it's what needs to be done.) ]
Alright.
[ Amos takes it, a verbal punching bag. Atsumu's words mean nothing; Amos knows this, and sooner or later, Atsumu's going to figure that out for himself, too. What's done is done. He has the Kenoma in his system. He's here in Achamoth. It's only a matter of time, and if Amos' role here is over, then it's over.
At least he got the kid here. Saved him from something worse. At least he did that much.
He stands back up, looking down at him. ]
I'll be around, if you need anything from me. You can always ask. Any time.
[ He gets it, that Atsumu doesn't want him around now... but it'd be a real dick move to cut him off completely. Whether he likes it or not, Amos will remain available for him, at whatever pace it is Atsumu ultimately ends up taking.
