[This continues to be existentially terrifying. Great!

Will can't imagine himself ever making that decision, giving up in the face of being taken over by some other personality. He's nothing if not tenacious, and it's no secret that he values himself over anyone else. He thinks he'd fight tooth and nail and do every spiteful thing he possibly could. That's what he's done in the past.

But those were all threats from the outside. Those were all things he could fight. When the threat's in your own mind, what can you actually do?]

Are you aware? In there? I suppose not, if you're describing yourself as brain dead. So aside from right now, you're just... gone?

[So this kid's double-dead. Will takes a deep breath and lets it out slow. He runs a hand through his hair.]

I probably would've killed myself, to be perfectly honest. Before it got that far. [It's literally the only hypothetical situation in which he would, he thinks.]

If I have to die, I'm going to do it on my own terms. And I'm not going alone. So I guess at least you were kind enough to let one of you live.
