[Why do people respond before he's finished talking? It tends to happen a lot. Nagito stares down into the bowl of water and holds his hand above the surface. Faint ripples appear as if a stone were dropped in the middle.]
I'm not sad about it. It has given me an interesting perspective! Knowing how fleeting life is...the colors of the world are brighter, don't you think? Even annoyingly windy days are something special. It doesn't matter when it rains, because you know one day soon you'll be part of that voice of the world.
But you and I, won't be joining the dust so soon.
[A ball of water the size of a marble rises from the water's surface. He lifts his hands, cupping them beneath it.]
As long as there is a chance, people can score a victory even at the edge of the abyss. Despite the darkness. There is a light that shines on! Sometimes because of that despair, the hope will burn hotter. I used to think it took despair to make that happen. Mm, that hope was an absolute!
I still believe in it. But I think hope is less tangible, and exists even when all lights fade. As long as we're alive, there is still that fleeting spark! I have full confidence in that! Lloyd saved you once. And...I am working on my own cure. So those who believe in me won't have to see me die in such a horrible way. As long as we don't give up, you and I won't fall to our conditions.

Chase the light with me, Colette.
