[Looking away, he curled red hair around his finger restlessly. What could he really say? 'I won't let that happen'? Kakyoin couldn't promise that--not because it was inevitable, but because he knew it wasn't possible. If things ever got that bad, he knew he'd drop everything and risk his life to protect this family. No matter how much he very much did not want to die, part of him still demanded the lives of his friends and family take precedence over his own. He'd still be letting it happen to himself, if no one else.]
[He couldn't lie and say they would all be fine, knowing he'd do something very stupid that he very much didn't want to do if it became necessary. There was no reassurance he could think of that wasn't a lie along those same lines.]
...I just don't want anyone else to get hurt.
[It had to be me, echoed that troublesome and unfortunately correct thought.]
