it really can't be helped, the way he constantly feels like he wants to be more in-tune with leon. he always does his best to respect those boundaries, but all the same, he wants to be closer, he wants to know more. things may be slowly seeping out bit-by-bit, and stahn is patient enough to let things go at the pace they need to...
he doesn't think it's so wrong though, to try and see if leon will let him in a little more.]
It doesn't need to be. [stahn says it quietly, shaking his head.] Your reason... is important for you.
[he pauses, then closes his eyes before admitting something that—well, it's a little embarrassing for him to say.] The things that are important to you—they're important to me, too.
