[sometimes, comfort isn't what he needs.

maybe it would be nice to have comfort, but stahn has grown pretty well accustomed to not having that to a point where when it does happen, it feels pretty strange. this isn't like things back in leane; from the moment he made that contract with dymlos, he became responsible for the fate of many. comfort isn't part of that.

it's about being strong, it's about being able to have the strength to face even the hardest of trials. dymlos doesn't comfort, rutee hardly had either. and leon is the last person he expecting something like that from. so hearing those words from leon—words meant to ground stahn, words that exist for the sake of reminding stahn of what's most important—it works. and strangely enough, it does provide a strange sense of comfort as well.]


...You're right. [even if there's still something in his tone that isn't quite confident in that, leon is still right. they're fine. stahn was able to put an end to the bots before things went too far... that counts for something.

he'll follow when leon does start to walk, of course; his stride isn't as it normally is, but he keeps pace.]
You're safe... I was still able to stop them before it was too late.
