*He cringes. He knew it was inevitable for this particular him, but...that doesn't make it any less painful. For both of them. He remembers both pieces of himself, how they fought so hard against it...but at least this one has a chance.
He's human. Always was.*
Don't give up. ...do you remember what happened earlier this year? You fought it. And you won. You can do the same now. I'm sure of it.
So you would encourage them to run away? To just forget you? They would never kill you. You're their brother in your world, right? To even ask that of them would be--
*......sigh*
Look. I know you're scared. But you're different. I was only borrowing a human form...I still am. But you were born human. That creature inside of you...it's a foreign entity in your body. It can be forced out.
*he squeezes his double's shoulder a little in reassurance.* We'll find a way. I promise.
...even if they did kill you, the Fall would happen anyway. And they would have no memory of their Personas or the Dark Hour. Ignorance isn't bliss in this case. It's a death sentence.
*he pauses.* Besides...if there were no pain in life...do you really think that people would understand what it means to truly be happy?
...what happened?

[He's repressed it, and it's not unlocking easily. He doesn't know if he wants to know what happened.]
It's... coming in my world. Maybe if they kill me they'll forget. I bet, if I tried, I could make them forget they were triplets and not twins.

Better to take the chance that they can take it out than let it roam free.

Death isn't something you can fight against. Neither is night.

*little laugh to himself.* If that's true, then how come I got my sorry butt handed to me on a dish when they fought me in my world?

... Teach me how to fight it.

We need to get you some food. And sleep. ...and a shower. I'm not saying you smell. It'll make you feel better. Okay?

[He's not sure where he's going to get any of these things, but okay.]

...first things first. The weaker you are, the more difficult it will be to fight this. So take care of yourself. Okay?

[He has to fight it. He has to. If not for the sake of everyone, then for his brother and sister.]
