[for a moment, stahn frowns at the response. it's not that leon is wrong. finding greybaum and retrieving the eye is top priority. stahn knows that, and he's not trying to minimize that, because it's incredibly important and he wants to do his part to help.
still, there's more to it than just that. isn't it hard to live only focusing on your mission? isn't hard to stay so stern in the face of a good time? doesn't he feel a want to embrace some of the nicer things in life, even just for a moment? he's young and has a future ahead of him (hah...)]
We can't do anything until morning, anyway. Are you really going to spend the rest of the night only thinking about that? [stahn tilts his head, pursing his lips.] I know it's important, but that's not all there is to life, you know. You have to grab these moments when they're here, so they can keep you strong when they're gone!
[that's what life is about. being able to spend time with loved ones, having fun and embracing things—the hardships exist, but you power through them to get to the reward at the end. and you use the good memories to push you there. at least, that's how stahn sees it.
but can he really get leon to see things like that? he's not sure.]
