[For all the trouble he's been in and caused in the last 24 hours alone that comment gets a flash of a feral grin, something satisfied and challenging all at once.
It's short lived though because Izunia's taking his hand and the first push of magic against the fire within him is enough to leave him breathless. There's a moment where he wants to push back, where the dulling of the magic makes him panic and the pains in his body reassert themselves and he feels helpless. The delicate touch of Izunia's hand doesn't matter then because Nyx is clutching at his hand, hard enough to be painful, trying his damnedest to focus his breathing and not freak out any more than he already is.
It's quiet the power or let it kill him. He knows that, knows that he can't go on sustaining that fire but Serpent save him, he hates letting it go.]
So.... how useless am I gonna be when this is done?
[He tries to keep the tone light, playful even, but there's a tremor of fear there and, of course, the iron grip he has on Izunia's hand.]
