[He doesn't look like he likes it, though! Because he doesn't!! On the other hand, based on the fact that only Two Illusions showed up, he guesses?? That Clementine might be set apart from them somehow?? Binch he hates it here. He glances again at Alphinaud, this time like he's trying to gauge a read on their resident Normal Lad's opinion.]
'Tis true that death is not wont to ever be permanent on ventures such as these, and besides, we... have already lost our lives, once. [ They're not capable of truly dying within death, are they? ] And to get where we have right now, once separated—I... assume we have already met the same fate.
Loathe as I am to say it, I understand where Clementine comes from.
[Friendship bonds forged in the fire of... murder...]
...I would rather find another way. [HOWEVER for the sake of moving things along and not having many tags of just wandering in the void:] If this is what you believe to be best, and we are all in understanding, then you can leave it to me.
[He's assuming Alphinaud will have no objections to not being the murderer but, like, he can speak his peace.]
[It's okay she doesn't need a plan for how to get murdered! This is one thing Souji is great at! He will lift his big as fuck blade with like honestly a decent amount of ease despite being very twinkish.]

[And that's like ALL THE WARNING SHE GETS before he brings it swinging toward her noggin with the intent of striking her head right off of her shoulders in one swift and scarily precise motion. Good thing he has that convenient emotional switch where he can turn his feelings off when he kills!]

He looks down, a little shamefully, hands balling into tight fists at his sides—out of a sudden, rising anxiousness, more than anything. ]
It... it is sound logic. [ As sound as the logic can get in this bs. ] I will not stop you if you believe it shall work.
[ Seems like they all just died to get here in the first place, anyway. ]

He's immediately frowning! He doesn't like this!]
Why do you think that your death in specific is the answer...?

... As I've said, the logic is not unfounded.

But anyway. He nods once. ]
... Very well.

Not a moment later, tremors run through the void. Blinding light bursts from Clementine's body and the party finds themselves elsewhere.]
