It's fitting, to end a fight pretty much the same way it started. The silence erupts into shock when everyone realizes what's happening - the tension doesn't stop rising even after the last of the assassins lies dead on the floor, despite the fact that Lorne doesn't so much as flinch.
Not from the fact he only barely escaped being turned into shish kebab or something like it. Not from coming face to face with someone he never thought he'd see again. Not from the look of almost surprise and something-like-fear in his eyes. He could flinch from the fact that it's Angel, but he doesn't. He does his best not to.
Angel saved his life.
Angel saved his life, and he can't lower his shotgun. He can't.
