[Ah.... friendship logic. The logic appeals to him but he doesn't quite understand the friendship aspect of it, naturally. Sure, it's true that Stahn has already gotten to have more ice cream than Leon, but it's his winner stick, and he should use it.
Why should he even bother with what's fair or even?
And yet...he is, and Leon's sick of feeling like he's on the defensive and knows nothing. He's sick of feeling off-balance, which he has for this entire conversation. And... it's ice cream. The treat was a legitimate enjoyment out of everything, so surely if he eats it away from Stahn, where he won't have to deal with his knowing smile...
Then it should be fine. Leon huffs out vaguely, but it's more frustration at his lack of understanding the situation than anything, and then he reaches up with a quick movement to snag the offered stick.]
Fine. If you're set on making a fuss over this, then I'll take it.
[And not because he wants more ice cream, of course not...or because he doesn't want Stahn to make the kicked puppy face from before, not that either. Naturally.]
Now we're done here. [So he's going to just...skirt around Stahn to try to stalk off, because now it's definitely a bit of awkwardness on top of the irritation from before. He still doesn't understand why Stahn was so insistent on this being fair, but...now that he has that free ice cream stick in his hand, it's feels a bit too much like a promise.
Why did he take it? He's really not sure, but...for that reason, he won't throw it away, either. He may as well use it, he supposes--it'd be a waste, otherwise. That's...certainly the only reason. He won't think any more deeply on that.]
