There is a definite building sensation of dread, coldly solidifying somewhere in his stomach as Daniel goes on.
He wants to pretend he doesn't know what Daniel is getting at. Perhaps Daniel is only asking him to put himself in the line of fire. Seth can do that. He doesn't want to do that, but if completely necessary, he is able to do that. Particularly if it means Daniel returning home safe. If he can bring that about, then it's worth it.
"Yeah," he confirms quietly.
He's never actually tested that. Funnily enough, letting people shoot at him to test the limits of his power hasn't seemed tempting. He knows he's been able to phase through other things purely by reflex, but it's one thing to pull your hand out of a fire before it burns you, and quite another to dodge a speeding bullet. But if he anticipates it, if he intentionally makes himself intangible to potential projectiles, however fast they are, then it should work.
