[ Underneath all those masks, Sasuke sure is a crybaby.

He's in good company. Though right now, Yukimura doesn't want to cry. Sasuke might think it's from pain.

I'll protect your heart... And I shall help you mend it. No matter what it takes.

[ There's no heart that can't heal. Yukimura refuses to believe otherwise. Maybe it won't ever be quite the same as it once was, but it can always be put back together with enough love and patience. ]

This fire in my soul... will not go out. If you think you're straying too far into the dark... let this blazing light be your beacon.
