[Truly, Otome knows very well how to handle Leon the Tsun. He just sheathes Chaltier in response, flicking his bangs from his face with a quick flick of his wrist.]

It isn't as though something like that was any trouble for us.

[Weird as it seems, he's used to healing... Sure, Rutee's the healer, but he still has to play his part in battles too.]

Now, why were you breaking up fights?

[???]

[mombastic]

Ah, well, alcohol sometimes gets people riled up and argumentative, and when your inhibitions are low, fights tend to break out more often.

[ Bar environments...

But Otome, he didn't ask how it came about. ]

[discard]

[........His eyebrow arches.]

I'm aware of that. [Thanks.] You were in a bar.

[Why???]

Breaking up bar fights.

[Why????]

[mombastic]

[ ... She probably shouldn't say his first name here. ]

Kogami-san invited me out. And, well, I couldn't let a fight escalate...

[discard]

[Yeah, okay, Leon can't quite hide his disdain. (okay no he doesn't even try.)]

Oh. Him again.

[Why do you keep getting bruises when you're around him? Otome, that's a concerning trend!!!]

[mombastic]

[ It wasn't his fault! ]

Now, now... he actually wanted to know how you were doing, Leon.

[discard]

He--

[What??? Why???]

Tch. I have nothing to do with him, so he should avoid sticking his nose in my business.

[mombastic]

Maybe he'd like to be friends with you?

[discard]

[?!?!???!????]

[discard]

I highly doubt that, and I wouldn't want his friendship anyway.

[HMPH]

[mombastic]

Really? He's surprisingly reliable, though.

[ Otome so blunt with a smile. ]

[discard]

[hmph......]

I wouldn't know anything about that. Nor do I care to.

[SO....SO!!!]

[mombastic]

Usually things like that will happen, regardless... well, I'm glad that you trust him enough to go to him for assistance, at least.

[discard]

[And, immediately:]

I don't trust him.

[Don't even imply things like that!!!]

He was the only one who could possibly have known where you were. That is all.

[mombastic]

[ Could have possibly... ]

I suppose that's my own fault for not having company over very often. [ Well. Leon knew now. And so did Stahn. And Hiro had teleported into her toilet, so that's... improvement? ]

Ah, speaking of home, though... what brings you out here?

[discard]

I--

[... He's lost.

He's so lost and that's embarrassing so...so he can't....say that...........]

--was just going for a walk.

[nailed it.]

[mombastic]

Ah... well, don't let me keep you, if that's the case. I was just going to head home myself.

[ She noticed that pause, though. ]

[discard]

[O.....okay...

This is fine.

This is definitely fine.]

I--yes. Do that. [Go home. He's fine. This is fine.

..........!!!]

Chal, I'm not going to--! Shut up. Keep your opinion to yourself.

[Seems a Swordian is not happy about this.]

[mombastic]

Eh? What did he say?

[ NO, CHAL, GO ON. HELP YOUR SILLY MASTER. ]

[discard]

Nothing. He said nothing.

[He said "Young master, don't you think Otome would know the way home?"

Which Leon is firmly ignoring.]

[mombastic]

[ Of course he did. ]

Goodness... was he offering you as an escort?

[discard]

Wha--

[?!?!?!?!?]

No, that-- don't be ridiculous!

[He's going to end up as an escort, isn't he.]

[mombastic]

[ Possibly. ]

Hmmm, I was sure that was it... you balked so strongly, so I know it must be an inconvenience.

[discard]

It-- it wouldn't be an inconvenience to escort you either way.

[Don't...misunderstand him!!!]

If nothing else, it would prevent you from getting into further trouble later, which you seem to attract.

[mombastic]

It's not that I attract it... it's just as a doctor, when dangerous things happen, I have to be there to help the injured.

[ And maybe that she attracts it. A little. ]
