[of course he doesn't—and stahn finds himself smiling a bit as he calls someone over to make the order.
...which is probably ridiculous. but stahn doesn't think about why he's smiling, or why he's even endeared by this at all.
but he is—maybe because it's so leon to deflect things like that when he clearly wants it. either way? he'll casually make the order and leave it at that. it's fine.]
Leon doesn't get it, but on the other hand--he's grateful that Stahn's seeming more like himself, instead of down in the dumps as Cerealia has made him lately.
So he's not going to complain about the fact that Stahn at least looks a little happier, even if he doesn't understand why.
Instead--]
If nothing else, I suppose experiencing a range of different foods has made this somewhat worthwhile. If there must be some high point to this nonsense. [Cerealia, he means.]
[it can't be helped... those little slivers of normalcy and the reminder of why leon is so precious to him as a friend is enough to bring a smile to his lips.
he's really just a simple soul.
though... he does scrunch his nose as the implication that the food is the only good thing cerealia has to offer.]
It's not like that's the only good thing, Leon. I know a lot of it isn't great here, but... I don't think the food is the best part.
[stahn's not blind to the fact that leon isn't ignoring it, after all. it may be sentimental, but the friends they've made and the fact they're largely patched up their own relationship in many ways—
to stahn, that's more important.
but stahn always has been more of a sentimental person, so this is just no exception to the rule.]

But Leon's sometimes overly complicated, as evidenced by how he quirks an eyebrow at that?]
Oh? And what, precisely, would you tout as better in a place such as this?
no subject
[his friends are precious and can't be replaced—leon included, of course. to stahn, that's better than anything else cerealia has to offer them.]
no subject
Ugh, how expectedly sentimental.
[He's not...going to deny it, because he met Otome here. (And Kashuu, and Rise, and--)
But still.
Gross.
Sentimental cooties.]
