[And here is the source of all of these issues right here, bristling. He's bristling because Chal's getting scolded too (or at least, asked a perfectly reasonable request, but still, Leon's hyperdefensive over Chal, and especially right now), even if Chaltier only makes an assenting noise in response to the request.
Nope, Leon's here to be the Problem Child he always was.
Otome steps into the kitchen before Leon can throw the fit he's ready to throw, and so instead he looks to Stahn as if to take it out on him and--
...And he looks awful, doesn't he? Now that he's forced to actually take a big long look at Stahn, he looks totally miserable. And admittedly Leon's not all too happy either, but he's more than aware that he's hugely at fault here, and while it makes his stomach sink to think that Otome is disappointed in him, he's at least got the kneejerk reaction to react in anger. It means that he's not miserable like Stahn--not yet.
But seeing how sad Stahn is just makes him uncomfortable, and after a long moment, he doesn't take it out on Stahn, looking away instead. After a long moment of silence, he finally clears his throat, but...it's not like Leon's good at this sort of thing.
He has no idea where he'd even begin.
On principle, he doesn't want to do it because Otome told them to, and Leon hates being told what to do. But on the other hand...Stahn looking like this? Maybe this really has gone on too long.]
