Shadow told me the dead can be brought back. I want... I need to believe that.
[He wasn't sure before, but now, faced with Natsuno's scorn? The more he talks about it, the more he believes it. Conviction pours in, firming his voice and his glare.]
Sherlock promised we'd see each other again. I'm going to have faith in that promise. That's worth living for.
... I executed Anon, but I'm not a killer. I remember Cumberland College now. I won't let those nightmares haunt me anymore. This... I'll overcome this in time, too.
[He climbs off the bed and starts trying to shove Natsuno toward the door.]
[ Not fighting it, in fact he will actually push Erhard back with a lot more force than he needed to so enjoy that trip across the room. ]
Congratulations. But you're still a killer now, Erhard. Try and forget that, and I'll be happy to remind you. I promise. [ And then he's leaving. As intense as this conversation was, his parting words are a whole other level entirely. ]

If you believe that, then you should actually try living and not wallowing in your despair.
