when Alastor was human has was constantly used and bullied for his skin and hair. Now in hell he hides a lot of his characteristics for example his HATE for touch and forces himself to deal with it.
or
Alastor is to tired to deal with acting 'normal' and just does what feels comfortable.
or
Alastor angst, its good give it a lick before throwing it away.
A little twist on the last episode, delving into the unused opportunity for Alastor angst. Plus what I'd imagine would happen afterwards.
aka Alastor is injured after the battle with Adam, and turns out wounds from angelic weapons take much longer to heal than expected. Not to mention how difficult it is for him to process just how badly this deal he made has weakened him. (I suck as summaries...)
