If I hurt for Eichi's sake, then let me come to the brink of death!
[He smiles, and drops his voice, soft and gentle and loving and unafraid.]
But we'll never die. Ever. I won't allow it. We're eternal, right? Aren't we? We've declared it already, we've put in the very paperwork that makes us such! I won't tempt fate, but I will say that anyone who dares to come for one of us, comes for us both, and they'll learn they're a fool sooner than I'll even admit that I'm one, too!
[Reaching out, he offers a hand to Eichi. They could. They will. Like Romeo and Juliet, night after night, they'll seal their eternal bargain with a kiss, hidden away from the world. They'll live and die by each other's grace.]
You've seen through my thoughts. Where I might drag you down with this, had we any other concept, the duality of our performance gives you the power of light and goodness. Of purity, even! Set me alight! Burn me up until the phoenix rises from the ashes, and we can both stand as tall as you see me. And for the first one, we'll see where things go. I'll end inches from your lips.
