And so I have enough strength to get what I'm after.
[His fingers curl into the sand, just slightly.]
I've told you I'm willing to take risks to obtain it, but I'm not entirely reckless. So long as there's a chance to get back what I've lost, I don't intend to risk myself needlessly.
[-but it sounds like it could be a risk that's worthwhile.]
There's a right way to do this. I just haven't entirely figured out what it is yet. [...] I don't think killing each other is the answer, but maybe you're onto something with learning how to control it. We're not supposed to interfere, so...if you think that's a path you want to take, then I have to allow it.
[And yet...] Stay focused. It'll be what saves you in the end.
I'll see what I can do. As you know, Lune and I have access to planes you guys don't. I'll see if there's anything new I can learn about how the corruption works, how to spot it and work with it.
[...] As long as you know it's dangerous. We're clear on that, aren't we?
Good. [A nod. This feels like a dangerous conversation, and they'll keep an eye on Shirasu from here, but...it's something to think about all the same.]
Until then, keep the duck and keep practicing. If you control your powers, you'll have a better understanding if this is possible.

But he exhales a humorless little laugh at that last bit of advice, with a brief shake of his head.]
It's all that I have left to focus on, Sol-kun.
[Which at least means he has a driving force. It could be much worse.]
If you think it might be a way to manage this-- then give me what help you can in that effort, and maybe we'll both get what we want.

[He's just rarely shied away from danger. If it's what he needs to do, he's doing it.]
I'll be keeping an eye out, as well.
