[ well, isn't that a new and exciting quandary he never wanted to be faced with. saying "anything" was easy. bracing himself for whatever horrible thing that might come his way was easy.
having to pick the weapon of his own destruction was less easy.
did he choose too much? if he chose too little, would bb-8 suffer consequences? he didn't want to. he didn't want to have to pick things like "make me go blind" or "make me forget all my friends." he couldn't even wire his brain to think that way. he didn't want to. all he knows is black and white. choosing the most drastic option at all times. (it was going to end this way anyway. maybe he could speed the process along.) ]
My life, then. Kill me. Just get it over with. You're gonna have all the information you need when you're done with BB-8. You don't actually need me for anything. Do it. Send him back to the Resistance so they can know what happened. It'll crush their spirits, just like you want.
