I know I'm not the smartest guy, but if I decide to do something, it gets done. And I've decided I'm going to save Lio. If that's what it takes, then that's what I'll do.
[ There is a very pronounced stilling in her as he does that, like she's not used to the gesture. Still, at least there's that much resolve in him. Good. ]
Better make that a promise then, Galo Thymos. Yours is a rescuer's soul, correct?
[ She'll place the feather into the middle of his free hand and gently close his fingers over it if he'll let her. ]
Go save your unwilling monster. Don't get yourself killed in the process.
A rescuer's soul and a firefighter's soul. Burns brighter than any dragon ever could.
[Uh, yeah, he let her do that? Because she's giving a badass speech, and he's very into it. Theatrics is important - it makes it easier to believe that they'll pull this off.]
Two promises. Save Lio. Don't die. If my firefighter's soul sees a person suffering in the flames, I've got no choice but to run in there and carry us both out! So those are two promises you can count on.

[ Her tone is cheerfully encouraging despite this? But there's definitely a sharp edge to it, hm. ]
Don't mess this up. I'd hate to have trusted you with this only to see two people lost to the blaze.
