Really real, not just rituals and wisps of spirits and anciently held beleifs- no no no, magic- the stuff that fantasy was made of- was really, undeniably real....
In that moment, Alastor could have honestly died happy
"Oh mon ami.... what an incredible gift you've shared with me..." he breathed in true, utter amazement
It made him wonder what else was real, and his fingertips started to itch with the urge to get home and conduct a few of his more... outlandish and less smiled upon practices....
"I do wish that you would grant me the privlege of learning more about your.. well..... everything.... but I understand if that's out of the question," he added with, dare he say, humbleness
There was something spiking in him, he wasn't aware of it, but the shadow beneath him had started to squirm, restless and waking, yet damn near unnoticeable, some part of him was waking up, he just simply didn't know it yet
"And to think how similar you and I are, killing dangers and all that.... well, I'm afraid I don't quite stack up to your code, if I'm not human then, truly, this is the first I'd be aware of it, ofcourse if you wish to kill me anyway, it isn't as though I have some way of stopping you, but.... it would be something of a shame I think, see I tend to work alone, but for you, I'd entertain the idea of an.... allegiance.... as it is we're doing close to the same job, you kill the supernatural threats to this city, and I kill the human ones, what harm would there be in some collaboration from time to time? Not that either of us would need the help but.... well, it could be fun...."

It was definitely the idol worship thing
