[leon isn't wrong in thinking that—even if in this specific instance, he's not thinking so much about what had happened when he went back to leane to see his family—stahn really has though of it a lot.
there are promises he's made to himself, ones that he hasn't shared with leon yet (though he plans to, even if it doesn't end up being right away). promises to always support what he needs, and to never leave at a time when things could go awry.
and most importantly, promises to not let himself break anymore promises.]
Mm. [he's quiet in his agreement—he'll do what he wants. what he wants is to do something nice for leon. because even though he's tried to do so much already, it never feels like enough. not because he doesn't think leon appreciates his efforts... but he wants to do more. there's so much going wrong, and nothing ever seems to balance it out aside from small fleeting moments, like what happened at the inn.]
It's just up ahead, so we'll be having ice candy in no time. [and then what? stahn isn't sure. sitting on a bench and taking in the sights or the warm ocean breeze? he has no idea if those things will help leon relax or be a little happier, but he's not sure there are any other options, either.]
