I can't make a decision that important if my heart can't follow through, Haku-san. If I have to chose between myself getting hurt or someone else dying, then I don't care what happens to me. I won't sacrifice myself... but I'm not going to play with peoples lives like this is some sort of mystery game.
That's... all there is to it. I don't want this to happen again.
... you're not alone in all this, you know. Whether it be those feelings of wanting to prevent this from happening again, or not wanting to treat people as though they are pawns.
[his words are gentle, even though they seem to carry with them a note of concern]
But if you get hurt, do you think that would please others? Do you think that if you allow yourself to be maimed, you would be able to help people in the future?
If you make yourself hollow first, you may lose the very heart you are trying to protect.
