[ He misses — an act that is okay for now, because he isn't being attacked right now. Instead, Dextera is just yelling at him, and for... what? He hasn't seen the guy since the reflecting pool. Doesn't think anything there would have been cause to set him off; sure, he'd demanded to see one of Amos' memories, but that isn't a reason to try to kill him.
Because that's what this is, as far as he can tell — Dextera is trying to take Amos' life source for himself. The memories are, ultimately, meaningless; the hole from whatever Mr. Tibbs had taken from him filled itself pretty quick. (No. Was just ignored pretty quick.)
But fine. Dextera wants to talk; he'll talk. Amos switches over to communion himself, warily circling Dextera, dagger still at the ready. ]
They're mine. [ Emphasis on the possession. ] You don't need my memories either.
[ And when he sees an opening, he'll go for another stab — he doesn't need any of Dextera's memories, but he will take his life source if he can. ]
