He's not suicidal enough to actually do it (she'd get awfully mad at him, and he doesn't care to be the target of her ire), but his meaning is the same, skin gone pale and jaw clenched, thick brows jumping upwards with alarm.

He knows, too, this probably counts as fulfilling his sentence, sharing his true self, but if that's the case, he would have by and large preferred to take another punishment. He rubs at his forehead. ]
It's not people here that I'm worried about. But if this gets out back home, I'm a dead man. It's just better to keep it quiet, all right?
