[it's fine this way, honestly. stahn takes no issue in the fact that leon doesn't verbally acknowledge it. he never expects that to be the case after all, and he specifically approached it this way in order to prevent it. stahn knows how prideful leon is, and he isn't interested in stepping on that.
it's one thing to not let leon win the battles of pride when it's really important; when it comes to things like that, stahn won't relent. but something small like this, where he knows just how much it bothers leon to acknowledge it? he can't push too hard. so he doesn't, riding the train in silence, watching the scenery out the opposite window. maybe he's marveling a bit at how impressive it is. the lights and colors and the sheer size of everything is impressive. they've gone quite a distance before the train finally stops in the residential district—the city really is a sprawling one.
he doesn't move right away though, allowing for leon to exit first. if he winds up being a little off-kilter, then at least stahn can be behind him for support. he's sure leon will be fine, but... this is still different than any other way they've traveled before. he can't help but worry about it, at least a little. especially if this is largely the way to get around here. stahn can get used to it without a problem, but leon would be suffering every time.
maybe there's some kind of medicine or something that would help? if they had things like that in their world that could help at least a little, then a place as advanced as this must too, right? that... will be something for stahn to look into on his own a little later.]
