N-No? No. That's definitely not it. I'm just - don't know what's coming next back home, that's all. Khione threw me off the ship, so I just... need to figure out how to get back without dying, but it's hard to plan for that when I don't know where I'll even land.
[ it's... kind of weird, leo thinks, how happy the idea of that makes him. having someone who cares enough to want to try, someone for whom he isn't just a mechanic or the extra who's just there but no one really needs. he actually matters to tsuyukusa, and that is more important to leo than he would have ever realized.
before, when he mentioned swearing on the styx to prove he wasn't lying, it had been more of a joke than anything. it was too early for him to expect tsuyu would actually ask for that. if he asked now, though, leo would make that oath in a heartbeat, no regrets.
but for now, he'll settle for pulling tsuyukusa into a kiss, one that lingers a little more than the few they've shared before, and he hopes that will say what he doesn't know how to put into words. ]
[Oh. Well. It's hard to stay mad after something like this. He leans into the kiss, happy to linger longer, hands rising to tangle in Leo's hair, absorbing details like he would in the forest. The softness, the warmth, the faint scent of Leo's sweat and I just assume there's an ambient aroma of smoke and grease. It's different than the forest, but it's good now too because it's Leo.
Eventually he does get too embarassed though, you can practically feel his temperature rising and his hair sticking up like a ghibli character. So eventually he has to break away and bury his red face in the crook of Leo's shoulder instead.]
I don't even know why you like me but I'm glad you do.

The feeling's mutual. But I try not to think about it too much, or I might spontaneously combust.
