Also, if anything needs to be animated or turned into a CD drama, it's Fate's laugh. His expression and Asuna's reaction was pretty funny.

Spoiler for spoiler:

In a sense, he's already doing that. The dark path is that of the loner fighting on his own, which Negi is trying to do with Magia Erebia. The light path is that of the group fighter, he who works with friends and allies to achieve his goals. Negi's obviously working with his partners while using Magia Erebia, so in a sense he's already doing the dark/light combo. I'll bet we'll see some special Light magic before this is all over as well, though. Negi obviously isn't ready to face Fate at his full power just yet. Not by a long shot.
