It's a promise that Leon appreciates, because Stahn is all that's well and good in the world. Stahn is that light spot, the person who needs to be there, who needs to live and live happily for the world to be right.
Everything else... that's all up to fate and chance.
But if Stahn stays the same...then Leon knows that hope isn't lost for the world. And that's enough for him.]
I will hold you to that promise.
[More than anything else...he will. But he does look somewhat relieved, somehow.]
[for a brief moment, he lifts his hand—it's almost instinct from growing up with lilith to seal promises with pinkies.
but he'll drop his hand before he lifts it completely, because that habit is overridden by the fact that he knows leon would scoff and write it off as something childish.
