[ Her words pull him back a little, but they ordinarily wouldn't be enough to immediately motivate him to let this guy go. He didn't come into this fight with the intention of killing anyone, and it's not something he derives joy from — to him, it's just a solution to a problem. It's not even personal, he doesn't care why they're doing what they're doing, they just need to stop doing it, and not do it to anyone else. That doesn't mean there isn't a kind of satisfaction and release he gets from doing this to people who asked for it.
Don't kill him echoes in his mind, and he considers it, thinks about what happens if he lets him go, and what other problems they're gonna have, and all the while the guy is losing consciousness, and what actually stops Amos is the threat of another one coming at them. More specifically, coming at her.
She's down before he can do anything, but he drops his hand from this one asshole's neck, lets him hit the ground however he'll land, and immediately turns to charge at the other guy full speed, slamming him hard into the wall, smacking his head against the brick and letting him crumple. He turns again to get his bearings, taking a swing to the side of his head before he moves to try and kick the last guy's legs out from beneath him. ]
