Allen Walker is the champion and saviour of The Gays. Well before he knew about lady alma, he believed kanda loved alma and Alma loved Kanda and that they should have settled the matter by hugging it out and making up all romantic like. Never once did he think the relationship was platonic, or was surprised/stunned by two boys being in deep passionate love, He never questioned it. Through out it all he used male pronouns for Alma. As soon as he knew about their history he was ride or die. He Defied orders to protect them. He even arranged for them to be alone so they can spend their last moments together. Allen Walker Ally hero.
Allen is the #1 Yulma shipper and no one can convince me otherwise.
Nea is somehow can materialize in this world but can’t be too long separated with Allen because his memory/power is inside him.
And when Allen choose to be exorcist, Nea becomes finder just because they have yellow as the uniform’s color lol (besides do he want to be with books and papers in science div? Obv no)
and he can probably stay out of radar from noah
Random thing that can happen:
-nea playing the machine that caging the akumas
-“what is the chance of if I dont saying anything about that lake having innocence, will the noah find it first to destroy it… or do i have to wait these finders start panicking and calling exorcist which maybe, is Allen!!!”
-“Allen allen allen call me uncle come on notice me and my awesomeness allen alleeennn”
-“allen just praise me bec I found the innocences i guess its not that bad to find those wretched things”
The possibilities:
1., Bak teaches Allen the technique he uses to summon Fou.
2., Allen does it by concentrating his energy, in Alma Karma arc when the 14th fully awoke within him a tangible aura materialised before Kanda, so maybe he can do that again.
3., Allen creates Neah a body with the Ark’s help
Also:
– Neah teases Allen endlessly. There is no escape.
– Neah starts worrying about his finder teammates and seriously considers trapping the entire Order in the Ark where they can’t hurt themselves.
– Neah stares at the scientists trying to figure out how Dark Matter works and feels very, very sorry for them.
– Neah DOES NOT want to hear everyone’s tragic backstories, because he feels irrationally responsible.
– Neah avoids the Bookmen like the plague. This just makes Lavi more determined. Neah regrets everything.
Neah avoids Lavi because he teased that Neah was like a fart, emitted by Allen and he’s temporary. Lavi laughs until he can’t breathe when Neah tries to kill him but can’t because he was away from Allen too long.
Allen gets tired of Neah’s teasings and counterattacks. Tenfolds. Neah practically pleads for mercy.
Boundaries, what are boundaries? Allen has no sense of propriety when pushed and he was raised by Cross, Neah, you should not have started this.
Kanda tries to kill him. Regularly.
Neah tries to kill him back, but Allen disapproves. Apparently only Allen is allowed to do that.
But sometimes Neah enjoys being intangible. Expecially when a new Komurin is out. But then he remembers that Allen can get hurt and curses.
Also, I’m 10000% sure that upon meeting Tyki, Neah would crack a joke like “I am your father“
Sometimes Neah forgets that he’s intangible and tries to kill things trying to kill Allen. It doesn’t work.
Sometimes Neah forgets that he’s intangible and tries to murder people who annoy him. It doesn’t work, but Allen yells at him.
Another thing Neah doesn’t do because guilt: Go to the infirmary.
Neah worries a lot and gets laughed at for his trouble.
I’m wondering if Neah would feel everything Allen feels? Feel the sun and breeze on his skin, smell the scent of grass, hear the birds chirp, taste everything Allen eats?
Imagine how freaked out he’d be at first to feel Allen eat all that much food and he could feel it that Allen still wasn’t satisfied.
Then imagine him demand Allen to eat like “Allen I wanna have some coffee, drink some, will you?“
When Lavi teases Allen that he’s just like a carving pregnant person he lets Neah feel Lavi’s cheek on Allen’s knuckles.
He would also feel it every time Allen pushed himself too hard, every time he got hurt, his exhaustion when he didn’t sleep.
He could tattle on Allen to Head Nurse when he hides injuries. Allen resents it.
He can feel every injury Allen gets in battle, and the pain when he fights through it, the injuries on top of injuries.
The Level Four attack was a nightmare.
Allen can see the pain on Neah’s face, no matter how hard he tries to hide it. It’s the first thing that really convinces him to be more careful.
When Neah pisses Allen off, one of his favorite ways to get revenge is to be less careful.
Pretty soon everyone catches on that they have to look at Neah if they want a genuine reaction out of Allen, because he’s not that good with pretending he’s ok when he’s everything but.
Neah also sees all of Allen’s dreams, and feel the love, the hopes, and the despair he feels for Mana. Neah tries to push his guilt off but he really can’t.
Neah fully supports the idea of betraying Allen in this manner, because he heavily disapproves of Allen’s hiding.
Neither of them can break down in privacy, no matter how much they want to.
The first time Neah feels a Noah badly injure Allen, it is a shock. Yelling is involved.
Confrontations with the Earl are… Not pleasant.
Allen is rooted to the ground when he sees his face and Neah staggers back from the intense feelings that hit him, everyone watches with horror how Allen is completely frozen when Neah is practically hyperverating.
The only thing that saves them is that the Earl keeps trying to embrace Neah, but phases through him. Both Allen and Neah snap out of their shock.
Allen starts trying to talk to the Earl, asking what’s going on, but he keeps stuttering and he can’t form a full sentence.
Neah wants to abort immediately and is trying to convince Allen to leave, but Allen isn’t listening to him. Allen isn’t listening to anyone.
And then the Earl goes into one of his rage spells and also cries, and Allen is suddenly being attacked and he has no idea what to do, none.
Neah makes the mistake of calling him instincitvely Mana and the Earl starts destroying everything in sight again.
Neah is genuinely taken aback when Allen snarls at him that “that monster isn’t Mana!“
Allen is blinded by rage, because he simply can’t handle the grief and wants to take on the Earl, Neah opens a gate under him and traps him within the Ark so he’d regain his senses. Once the anger fades Allen starts sobbing hard like never before and Neah can’t keep his tears inside either.
And Allen, still crying, starts telling Neah about his memories of Mana – not just the flashes of dreams Neah got before, but concrete information.
Allen barely realizes he’s doing it, he’s just curled up in a ball, mumbling, and Neah is silent as he listens, one arm around Allen, tears flowing down his face.
Allen tells him about Mana teaching him circus tricks.
He tells him how they met.
He tells him about traveling together.
He tells him about the stories Mana used to tell him before he went to sleep.
He tells Neah what a brat he was, how Mana never cared, how Mana made sure Allen knew he loved him.
He tells him about Mana’s bad days. How Mana sometimes thought he was Neah, and that they were children again.
He tells him how he died.
Guilt heavily weighs down on Neah, because he feels he robbed Allen from his life, since he doesn’t know it either if Mana was coherent enough to realise what was happening around him.
He thinks about telling a bit of Mana when they were kids, when they were still happy but then realises that it would be as good as rubbing salt in the wound.
Neah doesn’t know what to do.
Eventually, Allen pulls himself out of it, with the most horrible plastic smile. Neah is stunned, and kind of just tags along after, not sure how or why Allen is moving.
Allen uses the Ark to get back, where a battle is underway, and most everyone is temporarily distracted, surprised he’s here.
And Allen zeroes in on the Earl.
Neah catches on quickly and tries to stop Allen but he can’t, Allen won’t listen and he engages in a blind fight with the Earl. He wants to end this and himself, Neah realised. Neah is frightened, he calls Komui to send backup or Link or anyone who’d immobilise Allen, but he knows that the only one who could stop Allen would be Cross and he’s gone.
Lavi tries to stop him, Lenalee tries to stop him, but the one who almost, almost gets through to him is Kanda.
Kanda yells at him for being stupid, tells him he’ll regret it – but Kanda isn’t a people person, he can’t read people like Allen can, and he screws up and tells Allen it isn’t worth it.
And Allen goes through him to get to Mana, and that’s Neah’s last hope gone, because they don’t hate each other anymore but God knows he doesn’t have the pull Allen’s friends do.
Miranda traps Allen in a barrier while Link uses his seals to immobilize the Earl, then tries to seal away Allen. Allen tries to convince the others to let him handle this, because this was their chance, the Earl is not thinking clear, he has to be put down now.
I can’t help but wonder what Allen’s reaction would be if it turned out that the souls of the Akuma he and other Exorcists slay won’t get purified and saved by the Innocence but get devoured the same way and on top of that lose their sense of self too.
You know, I’ve thought about that too. And boy, that would absolutely wreck Allen…but at the same time, it would also give him motivation to walk a different path. That path being, perhaps, the third side of the war?
I also have a long-running theory that the Heart of Innocence is planning to wipe out humanity the same way the Earl is, just for a different end. (Which falls in line with why people keep teaming up with Nea to fight for the third side.)
For now it seems that the Earl is ready to wipe out humanity for the sake of his family, but it’s not his main objective, he’s much more focused on “killing the false god (Innocence)“ than a full massarce. The Noah are way more powerful, it would actually be much simpler if they eradicated humantiy with the Akuma and then the Innocence wouldn’t have hosts, which means no Exorcists and no matter how powerful Apocryphos is I doubt he could take on the whole Noah Family on his own.
Then the Innocence – with Parasitic Innocence it was clarified that it eats it’s users life force to destroy the Noah. Ironically, the tool to save humanity is ready to sacrifice humanity to destroy the Noah. And maybe that’s how Innocence sees its host: as feeding grounds and humanity as cattle that produces it. The role of humanity is to birth hosts, powerful souls, so the Innocence would become Independent like Apocryophos. If your soul is not strong enough you Fall and get eaten up, but the Innocence still won’t evolve. Actually until now Innocence evolved the same way as Akuma: it induced despair in the hosts then when they made the decision to fight it fully accepted them and bound themselves closer (Crystallisation plus Allen’s and Krory’s development).
Noah souls are the most powerful, powerful enough that they reject the Innocence and are capable of destroying it, they won’t get devoured like normal humans, but Innocence is still powerful enough to hurt and destroy them. Basically it’s a tag of who kills the other first while human population is used as resources.
My concern, though, is less what they do to humanity during their war with each other, and more so what they’re planning to do with humanity once the war is over. If humanity survives the final battle…what is their fate?
The reason I think the Heart may want to wipe out humanity is because the current iteration of humanity is descended from the original Noah, and thereby tainted. It’s why any seemingly random person can end up awakening as a Noah, and why it’s nearly impossible right now to kill the Noah for good–they can simply reincarnate into a new body, and they have millions of people to pick from.
On the other hand, the Earl has stated explicitly that the akuma serve a higher purpose than simply being war machines. And it’s been theorized more than once that their evolutionary process has an end that will create a new species altogether–perhaps one meant to replace humanity in the world after?
Long story short, regardless of the specifics, I think humanity will get the short end of the stick if either of the major powers wins the war. Which is where I think the third side comes in–which I believe has the ultimate goal of destroying both Noah and Innocence, thereby saving humanity.
I think that’s why Lvellie so quickly and fanatically attached himself to the third side and proclaimed it was for humanity after hearing whatever Cross had to say. I think it’s why Cross helped Nea despite his obvious reluctance to sacrifice a child for the cause. I think that’s why Past!Allen offered his body to Nea in the first place.
(This actually directly ties into my theory that the Heart and Apo have sabotaged Nea’s reawakening–which is why Allen is not his Allen, and Allen mysteriously has Innocence. But that’s another theory for another time~!)
Okay but I just ended up thinking about what if before Neah completely takes over Allen’s “Mask of Mana” falls away and there’s just mouthy, rude little Red left behind. He’s making this big show about how he’s fine and he doesn’t need anyones help but underneath it all he’s just a scared little boy who wants to be loved for him before he’s gone.
He doesn’t want to be “Allen” because Mana’s Allen was a dog and not him. He knows that. He’s always known that but at the time he didn’t care because “he” was loved.
He doesn’t want to be “Allen” anymore because the Black Order’s Allen is more Mana than him. He’s not the polite young man they’ve came to love but he didn’t care because “he” was loved.
He just wants to go back to being “Red”. To being himself. A bratty little British street rat who tries his damn hardest. He wants to be loved as himself instead of having to be someone he’s not. Just once. To prove at least someone cared about him for him before he’s swallowed up by the 14th’s memories.
LOUDER LET ALLEN BE RED LET MANA STOP BEING THE END ALL BE ALL OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
STOP BRAINWASHING AND SINGLE POINTING COMPLEX PROBLEMS WITH ABUSE AND MEMORY TRAUMA
Do you remember the place we went for our first mission…? | Yes!
Kanda!
Lenny told me that if anyone was capable of saving Alma, it’d be Kanda. I… think the same.
