I did it for her.

That's why he doesn't mind her killing him.

That's why he doesn't mind that poison was ruining his body, just focusing on her as she kisses him for the last time, pulling away with tears streaming down her face, blue eyes glistening as she looks up at him, at this person who she had just sent to his death.

That's why he doesn't mind, as he savours the marble-like sweet in his mouth, pulling her close in another kiss.

That's why he doesn't mind the inability to suddenly move his fingers.

It's okay. I love you, Ruruka.

-

I... did it for both her and him.

That's why he doesn't mind as a cold numbness starts to spread over his left side, the bridge to pain starting to grow cold with frost until all he can feel was a mind-shattering cold touch of death.

That's why he doesn't mind, as he pummels to his death, that he is going to die.

That's why he doesn't mind that he wasn't able to save her all those times that he had fired at Hope's Peak Academy, since he had saved her here.

That's why he doesn't mind when his right arm shattered upon hitting the ground.

I fulfilled my promise, Jin.

That's why he doesn't mind. Koichi Kizakura finally allows his body, mind, and soul to go to rest.

-

I did it for him.

That's why she doesn't mind, spending these last few moments with him. he glances at her bracelet another moment, relishing in this final, last moments that she would be able to spend time with these two, these two she had survived another mutual killing game with. The third person is someone she had not met before, yet she has both a wary sense of danger towards him and slight respect.

That's why she doesn't mind that she's watching him: he's laughing, a blush highlighting his cheeks, and she doesn't mind that she would die in the next few minutes since the timer was ticking down.

That's why she doesn't mind showing her scarred hands, moving it to rest over his own, and she can feel the exhale and inhale he has to take, yet she still speaks without a doubt in her mind that she would die.

That's why she doesn't mind: she's quick to glance for a monitor beforehand, he should be fine. She's a liar, but she has a weapon... her own mind. As long as he doesn't know, he would survive.

That's why he doesn't mind, as the clatter of his footsteps ring throughout the hall, abandoning him, leaving him to bleed out.

That's why he doesn't mind as he cuts into his own arm, hacking off his own wrist to get rid of that goddamn bracelet, blood freely flowing as he ties his jacket over the stump that used to be his own left hand, giving one last disgusted look towards the bleeding limb on the floor.

That's why he doesn't mind when he finds Makoto Naegi, who's in such a state of despair, glinting knife held up to his chest- or was it his throat, he could hardly see since his vision was unbelievably blurry...? His fist flies without another word, without a bracelet to restrain what he does best, and after a discussion, they part ways.

That's why he doesn't mind the agonizing limping, and he finds the control room. Using the last ounce of his strength, he yanks each lever.

Even if he abandoned me... I still want him to live.
