[Link's lips part to respond- to retort, maybe- but what Allen says to him catches him off guard in a way he's not expecting. Or, perhaps more accurately...his own reaction to it surprises him.
Allen wants him to live, this desperately. He would easily believe him to say this to anyone, even someone he just met, but still. Something about the declaration causes his heart to feel tight in his chest, as if he were trying to summon Atuuda despite his magic not working as it should.
He takes a slow breath, pulling on his shirt finally.]
I have no intention of letting anything like that happen again.
[But...he can't promise Allen that he wouldn't try to save him, if he were in dire straights. He used Atuuda to keep him alive once before...he knows without even thinking about it that he'd do it again.]
