Thinking about Patty Lowell's clearly developing saviour complex throughout the anime. Thinking about her growing into the type of person who will stick out her neck for almost anyone. Thinking about her being the one to push demons out of her part of town when the Qlipoth rises, as she's the closest to capable of being able to take them on; with only self defence classes, some gun training with Lady if she's lucky, and her burgeoning abilities as a sorceress already far outpacing her mother's under her belt. Thinking about how seeing the people she could and couldn't save changes her. Sure, she had aspirations before, and all the adult figures in her life tried to steer her as far away from that life as possible, but now fate has forced her hand. How can she go back to normal, now? How could she just graduate, go to college and get a good, safe job when she can protect people? Help them. Save them. The memories of the dead and dying haunt her in her dreams, and every morning she wakes, she is certain that she will never run from the fight.
