[stahn is frowning as leon stands, because he knows exactly why he's being so short about things. maybe if the conversation hadn't gone the way it did, he'd stay in the room a bit longer.
but it's not going to be so easy to get leon to see things his way, is it? even though he wants little more than for him to embrace these chances and not throw away the opportunities he's being given... but leon has always been this way. a one-track mind and completely goal-oriented. stubborn to a fault, and why stahn's sure that eventually, this will change. he's sure that somehow, he can get leon to understand why he feels this way.
it doesn't make it less upsetting to know he's going to walk away from this conversation so abruptly though. even if he wants to fight it, all stahn does is lean forward to reach for the comb while running a hand through his hair and letting out a simple, quiet:] Thanks... Leon.
[he doesn't expect a response though. stahn knows he'll probably just bristle and walk away, and that's why stahn just remains on the sofa, quiet and downcast. he appreciates the help—he just hates how much leon tries to fight everything else that's so good.]
