Is that a bad hm?

[looks at him for a long moment]

Not sure. Maybe. I remembered... my hearing must have recently gone, I was thinking about it.

I think I was going to die soon. I... remember my goal.

...I really must be a ninja, also.

You think your illness could kill you while you're here?

I don't know.

If it's something from before... would the judges allow us to fix it? Or is that why you are here?

[Self-consciously placing a hand on his stomach.]

...

I'll make sure I get my wish.

We won't let you go to the pillar like the others.

I won't. I'm not going to stop... anything. I'll move forward.

[eyes his second berry a little nervously...]

[Before you can take it...]

So, what's a ninja?

...I think we're a type of fighter. My memories haven't... provided much context.

So that's why you're so strong...

You look... bothered?

It's probably nothing. You said yourself you didn't have any context. But...

But?

You were going to-- what?

My senses failing... are just a sign of it. Encroaching death. This disease...

... Maybe there's something we can do to help you, here. We'll find something.

I already knew... my life is flowing out of me. Jace said so. And that the bracers are slowing it.

[eyes his second berry nervously]

[... I-- God. Dammit Jace now I can't try to say anything to give us hope I don't want Night to die >:]

[so just. Looks at Night's berry, too]

Maybe the bracers are slowing it... enough. He said I should have a good amount of time. We'll see.

[...do I take ... well, of course I should, but...]

I hope so. I hope you have a really long time.

... [puts a hand on Scar's head]

I'll get my wish.

[deeeep breath, then takes his second one]

[watching to see his reaction, tense]

[Just. Goes white.]

[... oh boy]

--Night?
