All of the other ghosts keep saying the same thing.

What does it mean?

I can't speak for any of the others.
All I know is that you're doing what I used to do. Trying to save others without any regard for your own life.
It doesn't work.

[. . .]

I don't do it blindly. I understand the value of my own life.

Minato was just. . . a special case.

You tried to die for me too.

[uh]

You were a special case, too.

[. . . yeah okay his track record is. not great]

How many times can you say it's a special case before they stop being special?

. . . point taken.

I guess it takes three times for the lesson to stick.

Don't throw your life away, Akira. People care about you.
I care.
And besides, you're needed on that side.

[thunks his head against his tablet for a minute or two before he finally responds]

Everyone believes in me so much.

But I believe in everyone else. I don't know if my presence is strictly needed, but. . .

I'll do my best.

I'm sorry for asking more of you when you've already done so much.
But I do believe in you.
I believe in all of us.

Today was a mess, but I believe we can get through this.

I do.

Today could have turned out a lot worse than it did.
We just need to figure out how to get rid of the Barghest before the execution tomorrow.

No fire. No drowning.

My guesses are stabbing or the iron maiden.

Aren't those basically the same?
And honestly, it seems weird to me that just stabbing would be enough to get rid of a ghost dog.

Yeah. Stabbing might be too mundane. But the iron maiden. . . that feels like overkill.

Maybe.
I guess we'll just have to find out.

Yeah.

I guess so.

We'll figure it out.
We'll save everyone.
So whatever happens, don't lose hope.

And seriously don't do anything that stupid again.

[oh my god]

I don't have the bomb anymore. I'm officially out of excuses.

Listen.
You've pulled enough stupid shit that I have no confidence in you not doing it again.

Touche.

[he deserves this]

Anyway, I'll stop bothering you. I'm guessing you're pretty tired after all of that.

Just a little bit. But I do enjoy talking to you.

Even when I'm scolding you?

Even when you're scolding me.
