Oh no, he couldn't watch this.
He wasn't going to say that he would defend the enemy just because was more pacifistic than Roy, if they attacked his home, his family, he was not going to fall into cowardice. But Jacob seemed....different. He didn't seem to want any trouble, and the fire was beginning to cause more trouble than get information out of him. There was no real confrontation, Roy was just...messing with him. And not in a playful sense, truly. This wasn't professional, this wasn't going anyway.
The fire being pushed towards Jacob so menacingly made Alex twitch. Something swallowed up his social awkwardness, a strange willingness to step in and at least level out the scenario. It was almost otherworldly, crawling up from the depths of his soul and taking hold. What was it...anger? He could feel his facial expression change, he felt his eyes begin to narrow, the corners of his mouth pulling back ever so gently. "This is wrong, but...why? Why is is wrong?"
His inner thoughts began to question Roy before his own voice even broke through, he still felt himself being held back by doubt, perhaps fear. Fear of that fire and fear of Roy. But he didn't go on that journey for nothing. He went after his own strength, and he'd rather be damned than sit back and watch this show.
Alex lunged forward, sliding in between Roy and Jacob, coming dangerously close to the flame, careful to keep his face to the side of those dangerous claws. "He has no information for you." The young male barked, taking on a defensive stance, something that was both foreign to him and much more effective for him personally with longer, more developed legs. God, he was finally growing.
His ears pinned themselves to his skull, swallowing back the fear he got from seeing such cold blue eyes. "Out of all the Typhoon members you take this one? You couldn't have found one with a little less fear, maybe one that actually puts up a fight?" He couldn't look at Jacob like this, he didn't know them but his empathy would not let this happen. They didn't know anything in the "i ain't telling ya" sense, they just....didn't know. "Or at least interrogate him in private. A public interrogation? For what? You want everyone to see how good you are at burning flesh?"
