I know it isn't about that, but... you dying is. It's a matter of principle. But it's also that... I love you, and I cannot bear to stand by and let someone kill you because it's an easy option. I'd rather take the hard one and pass out here trying.

A lot of us would. So many people here care for you, it's not an illusion, it's real.
