You have been dealt cards, but you have a choice in how you handle it. [ And that's what he thinks is most important. ] If it happens here, there are people who will stop you.
[ Joonghyuk is confident in that things will be okay? Maybe some deaths, but better than everyone dead, probably. ]
Not using your powers earlier is not your fault. We had three bodies that weekend. [ ... ] Catching these killers shouldn't rest on your shoulders and powers alone.
[ Akira is quiet, but some of the tension in Nagako loosens and relaxes. ]
...you're right. I just don't want anyone to feel sorry for me or to hesitate if that does happen. [ He would literally rather die. ]
I know it's not, but my bloodmetry is straightforward that anyone can get it. If someone writes their killers name in the sand I won't use it, but what the chances of that?
[ To say there's a smile here would be incorrect, but there is a soft emotion of some sort momentarily on his features, the lines on his face not taunt or twisted into a scowl. ]
I can't turn my bloodmetry off back home, so it's probably better to get used to it now.
I think the old geezer is probably gonna make a report, but we got a clipping from some kind of sacred tree or something. Someone called the Lord Regent chased us out, said he would be able to see even if we moved between worlds. Haven't heard a peep from him since.
Uh, maybe? Van Zieks and Alisaie were the ones who found it, me and Rin didn't get anything other than what I told you. We were with a ghost with blue fire for a while, though.

[ Resolute yet in itself vague. ]
Use it how you see fit, but there will come a time someone you care for unfortunately has to pick up a blade and kill. You might have to see it.

Just make sure you stay close to Dokja or I, in case anyone tries attacking you.

[ This isn't a no either, but he will realize after this weekend it's a smart move to make considering Yukio and the gun.
As for the smile, it is the result of someone who puts everyone else first, no matter what airs they put on. ]

I just wish shit was simple. The rest of the stuff we saw on that mountain didn't make any sense to me either.
