but this...
it's something special.
though leon doesn't use his words directly, the words he does use are ones he knows well—they're promises being made and accepted. it's leon agreeing to the vow he's making, and it's leon holding him to his own.
it's them both agreeing that they're in this for the long haul.
—this is love, isn't it? because stahn knows that he can trust that promise. he'll return that kiss, and when they pull back, his smile will be soft and full of warm love.]
Mm. I won't let you down.
[he won't break his promise.]
...Thank you.
[for loving him and being so willing to prove that he's worth all of this.]
