[so much damage control... so much damage control that it soothes Leon's ruffled feathers pretty well. It's easy for him to nod simply and respond to that with a:]
See to it that you do.
[Yeah!! Be more careful how much you bring home, Stahn!!
But they both know Leon's going to eat all of these anyway, even Stahn's slightly lopsided ones, and he will enjoy every last one. Leon's sweet tooth can't actually be tamed--but Stahn's making it easy on him now, so that's fine. The peace of their evening continues.]
You may as well leave them in the kitchen now. [He will probably sneak more of them later. Leon's not even surprised anymore that Stahn seems to know everyone anyway.]
Kashuu taught you this? [There's a pause as he wrestles for a question, before finally:] Why?
[Because that is a normal, social, human thing that friends do, Leon.]
[they both know it, but it doesn't need to be said at loud. that's the beauty of their friendship, isn't it? these things don't need to be mentioned. stahn can make these gestures, or buy things he sees and then play it off; everyone wins this way.
he'll put the cake pops in the kitchen shortly, but before he can do that, leon is questioning what happened.]
Why? [yes, he looks puzzled at a question like that for a moment. stahn purses his lips, looking up at the ceiling for a moment before he answers.]
Because we're friends, I guess! He told me he learned something cool that he wanted to share, so I went over. It was really nice of him! [kashuu's such a bro, isn't he?]
You give your opinion when nobody asked for it too sometimes, you know.
[is that stahn grumping under his breath because leon is being needlessly disagreeable? it sure is. he's not really afraid to call leon on his shit when it's like this. especially since leon is getting up and walking away.
after he worked so hard to do something nice!
rude.
(it's not like he'll hold it against leon, but he'll call a spade a spade when it's needed.)]
[The only response Stahn gets for pointing out (the totally legit) unnecessary Leon behavior is a scoff under his breath, even as he finally properly stalks off towards his bedroom.]
Hmph.
[This was...still more like usual for them, but Leon's still unnecessarily disagreeable.
But he's taking one or two of those cake pops with him.

Is that what friends do......
Leon looks puzzled for a distinct moment before he shakes it off. A-ahem.]
... He is a pest. [Thanks, Leon, nobody cares about your opinion.]
no subject
I don't think so... he's a good friend. He's really nice! [stop being a butt about friends, leon.]
no subject
He's incredibly energetic and hard-headed. It is irritating.
no subject
[he knows a lot of things, too.]
no subject
Good. Then you two can continue to fill up each other's company, and leave me out of it.
[as if, Leon.]
no subject
[totally honest question. leon is his friend?? he would never leave leon out of anything.]
no subject
I have no interest in spending any more time with him at all.
[That's...that's why.]
no subject
[come on, leon. have some fun...]
no subject
[So. Flatly. so flatly.]
I'm not interested. That is all there is to it.
no subject
[whines, because that is what adults do.]
no subject
[Go away, whiny golden retriever.]
Keep your useless meetings to yourself. I am not going.
no subject
[embrace the friendship!!]
no subject
[SO THERE.]
Stop wasting my time with unnecessary arguments.
no subject
[you can't make him stop, leon.]
no subject
No. I did not. So keep it to yourself.
[Ah. Thanks, Leon.... which is why now he's standing. oKAY HE'S DONE. (it was only a matter of time.)]
In the future, know that I have no interest in this no matter what you say.
[whatever, Leon.]
