[That's what gets him; at least enough to get past his weary glibness. He isn't going to cry, but his voice cracks all the same.]

Why is everyone so hellbent on informing me of that today? I can't think of much I've done recently to require it.

[Don't cry yet, he's not gone. They've got a few seconds.]

I'll miss you.

[If you don't want him to cry you're doing a bad job! Covering his mouth with his spare hand.]

Festis bei umo canavarum! [That small amount of sentimentality is like being struck. He never expected they would end this way. And now he sees it much more clearly, with only enough time left for it to break his heart.] Stop this, I can't abide goodbyes.

[Probably better to not say goodbye, then. Dorian is covering his mouth so Bull gently cups his cheek instead, leaning in to kiss him on the forehead.

They'll show something horrific happening to his body soon, he's sure, but it doesn't really matter. It's another illusion, another trick. At least he'll be free of them. He doesn't know how this would end - maybe this is the best they could have hoped for? Maybe this is the way that leaves everyone healthiest, if not happiest. Maybe it's not worth the price. Bull isn't really going to make a call. He's spent enough time dwelling on consequences for them to not even matter all that much - a useless struggle against a endless, unchangeable ocean.

What's the use in planning, in overthinking your final moments. Nothing special. Only pieces. He was tired of thinking too hard about everything.]
