Yeah, they're all here right now. [Because they're all on house arrest...] I would've checked up on you sooner but we kinda had to like... deal with all of that first, so.
[Leon... At least he's doing his best(????) and is surrounded by people who are also doing their (questionable) best.]
Um... Well, I've been apologizing to people in the best ways I can think of. After I can go outside again I'll really have to watch myself, but there are still too many important things to do to like, take a break, y'know?
[!??! Was that an elusive tsuntsun Leon compliment?! INCREDIBLE... Too bad Kashuu's in too much of a post-murder funk to even tease Leon like he normally would, mostly because he's not so sure he can accept any sort of compliment right now.]
—Mm, I'll still be doing my best. [That much is genuine, though.] I want everyone to be able to get home. Resolve and stuff like that is just as important now, yeah? More important, even.
Hmph. [Still...there's something that resonates about that. "I won't let this place take my purpose from me again"... what's Leon's purpose, anyway? Has he even had a purpose, the entire time he's here?
For a moment, he actually envies Kashuu.]
See to it that you don't. There are still tasks you must accomplish, for the sake of yourself and your companions.
Geez... You really are just as Leon as always, huh? [Leon is now an adjective, congrats. That said, there's a lingering note of fondness in his tone, because he can see the kindness in that rudeass statement.]
But I know. I'll focus on that - I mean, like. After I make sure everyone's okay and alive and all.
He can tell that Kashuu sounds a bit more upbeat, and honestly?
He doesn't know why, but he'll take it.]
As if I would be anything else. [Judas.] Now, as you can see, I am fine, and it would appear that you are also physically still in one piece. There is nothing else to discuss.
no subject
It's...pretty clearly leading somewhere that is not going to be good at all.]
... So what was your solution.
[It can hardly even be called a question at this point; Leon is prompting him for more information, mostly.]
no subject
We looked for a real good battle instead. It happened, but people died.
no subject
Innocents, I assume. [Or Kashuu wouldn't be so torn up about it.]
no subject
[Both of which he's definitely upset about.]
no subject
Leon's not very good at comfort, though.]
And have they come back?
no subject
Yeah, they're all here right now. [Because they're all on house arrest...] I would've checked up on you sooner but we kinda had to like... deal with all of that first, so.
no subject
Hmph, I have never asked for your concern, so do not bother yourself with that.
[Regardless--]
You have already heard so many placating words, I am sure.
no subject
[Leon, forever stuck on the friendship express... But as far as placating words go:]
—People've done their best to say good things. It makes me feel pretty lucky, y'know?
no subject
[He doesn't really get it, but he's bad at Support and People Being Supportive. Instead, he'll focus on the things he can actually comprehend.]
What do you intend to do about it from here?
no subject
Um... Well, I've been apologizing to people in the best ways I can think of. After I can go outside again I'll really have to watch myself, but there are still too many important things to do to like, take a break, y'know?
no subject
[Leon's on board with that plan, at least.]
There is far too much at stake, and far too many morons here to have one of the few vaguely competent people here stop.
no subject
—Mm, I'll still be doing my best. [That much is genuine, though.] I want everyone to be able to get home. Resolve and stuff like that is just as important now, yeah? More important, even.
no subject
... Yes, well. Those sorts of things...they do not matter so much to me, but I...
[...]
I would at least like to see a few people to their proper places.
no subject
Mm, some heads'll definitely be rolling if we can make things work.
[Maybe don't immediately jump back to murder after recovering from murder, Kashuu.]
Until then - I won't let this place take my purpose from me again. [Which is, as far as he's concerned, being a tool for protection.]
no subject
Hmph. [Still...there's something that resonates about that. "I won't let this place take my purpose from me again"... what's Leon's purpose, anyway? Has he even had a purpose, the entire time he's here?
For a moment, he actually envies Kashuu.]
See to it that you don't. There are still tasks you must accomplish, for the sake of yourself and your companions.
no subject
I know. I promise, okay? And if this place makes me break my promise again, then I'll just have someone take my head first.
[SOLVING PROBLEMS like a samurai.]
—But I guess for now, we should probably start with figuring out what went wrong.
no subject
I can think of better uses for your head than that, even if it is often filled with useless fluff.
[Sheesh.]
Rather than that, I believe we should focus on what we should do to prevent this from occurring again.
no subject
Geez... You really are just as Leon as always, huh? [Leon is now an adjective, congrats. That said, there's a lingering note of fondness in his tone, because he can see the kindness in that rudeass statement.]
But I know. I'll focus on that - I mean, like. After I make sure everyone's okay and alive and all.
no subject
[UGH WHATEVER...]
Just... remain yourself as well. Hmph. It would only be all the more troublesome if you changed now.
no subject
[Why does Leon even bother with him?? The real qs... BUT, more importantly:]
I won't, so don't worry! You stay Leon in the meantime too, okay? You better be Leon until the end.
[Both nonsensical and vaguely ominous... Still, he says it in a somewhat upbeat tone, like his mood has been improved.]
no subject
He can tell that Kashuu sounds a bit more upbeat, and honestly?
He doesn't know why, but he'll take it.]
As if I would be anything else. [Judas.] Now, as you can see, I am fine, and it would appear that you are also physically still in one piece. There is nothing else to discuss.
[BYE KASHUU Leon's hanging up.]
