Fufu, the best path forward isn't always the easiest, is that it? You're right. I'm sorry. It seems things got out of hand and instead of holding my chin high like I should, I stooped to a low level and held onto anger that has nothing to do with anyone here but myself.

My heart is beating so irregularly that it hurts. [He realizes now that he should stop talking, before he just spills all his thoughts about his inner feelings. So he'll just wrap his arms around his knees and rest his head there.]

Yeah. You did. [ It sounds harsh but it's just an indicator of even a fraction of the strictness with which he treats himself, far too intolerant of his own lapses in control. ]

If you choose to live, you always have the option to change your mind about it later. It isn't the same if you choose to die. If control matters to you, that idea should too.

I wonder why it is that your words sound so trustworthy right now.

[Subtly trying to say he has a feeling Sasuke is speaking from experience. Not-so-subtly.] Thank you. I don't want to die until I've reached my goal, so I won't let this illness or anything else get in my way. That's what I've always said.

[ The meaning isn't lost on him at all, but this is one he doesn't care to address. Talking about death is one thing, talking about his own possible desire for it... that's another. ]

In that case, stop prodding sleeping dragons. You won't have to worry about your illness if you get sliced first.

Even if it would have been interesting to see more of that real side of his, I've already said I'm done, so I'm done.

[He lifts one arm enough to flick his fingers, indicating it's done. He's listening! He's purposefully responding to that as if it's specifically meaning leaving Suigetsu along and not his habits in general, though.]
