There's a definite difference between having someone to take care of her (and guide her into maturity, one would hope) and a D/s relationship. That would just have Shilo stepping from one possessive, controlling relationship into another, and I don't think that's what she needs. I'm also not buying the idea of Luigi being into simpering, cowering, submissive partners. Luigi needs a woman who will fight back, who will be a challenge - anything less would be boring. He's violent and prone to lashing out; it's easy to find someone who'd bow and scrape and tremble, less so to find someone he can respect. One of the things I like about Luigi/Amber is that she's not afraid to challenge him, so when she's submissive to his demands it's because he's earned it from her.
I'm not saying that it's healthy, I'm just saying that given her options, after her dad is dead, I think Luigi would be who she ended up with. And Shilo can be uppity sometimes, but I think that if Luigi was with someone that was too strong willed, he would end up killing them. I think the only reason he does not kill his siblings is that "Dad would be angry" You have clearly thought about this a lot more than I have, though.
Having emotions and acting on them are two different things. And he is a "larger than life" character, he is supposed to be that way. So his reactions are exagerated. Even if you love someone very much, if they do something unforgivable, you might do something extreme- like hit them for example- to get your point across. Luigi is more extreme than most, so that is why I can see him snapping and killing someone dispite how he may feel about them.
