Action does. You can gather as many allies as you want, but without Daniel, wait,” he sets down the glass while his eyes are still sharp and suspiciously watching Alec like a bat. “You’re talking about allies like they’re falling from the sky, Alec. But I don’t see anything concrete happening, all you throw around are just words, no proof means

“Allen, don't let go. Do you hear me? Hold on.” His gaze flickered around, taking in the scattered bullet casings, and the horror rewashed over him. Allen had lost too much blood, and Hunter knew he couldn't be at the scene when the cops arrived, especially if Allen was gone. What would he say? Who was he supposed to be to Allen? A friend? A partner? An accomplice? There was no version of this scenario in which he walked away from it unattached.
