Maybe I should tell Otome you said that. [yeah, he's calling it out, because stahn isn't going to let leon say that. for anyone else in cerealia? maybe he could let it slide.
The point is that aside from a very few notable exceptions, the people here have not endeared themselves to me. Talking to them is a waste of time and effort.
[He snorts at that, expression and tone both going a fair bit colder.]
Oh?
Is that so? All I have seen are people who expect me to be something other than I am, only to grow frustrated when I am not. Honestly, thinking that I would change for them... it's ridiculous.
Did that really happen? [were there really people in cerealia who treated him that way?
stahn doesn't know anyone like that, he's never encountered that kind of situation and he's never seen anyone behave that way when talking about leon, either. most were understanding, and even when wary to stahn's insistence that he was a good person, they didn't write him off or say anything about how he needed to change.]
No. Maybe some people are like that, but that's not all of them. It's not even a lot of them....
[stahn can't accept that.]
I don't know who you met that treated you like that, but... it's wrong. It's wrong for them to do that, and it's wrong to believe that's just the way people are.

[since leon started on a direction anyway. stahn is ready to follow, of course, but he has no idea where they're actually going.]
no subject
[Maybe.
He's not sure.]
no subject
[why is leon always like this.]
no subject
[So there!!!]
no subject
[that's bullshit, and he knows it.]
Maybe I should tell Otome you said that. [yeah, he's calling it out, because stahn isn't going to let leon say that. for anyone else in cerealia? maybe he could let it slide.
but not her.]

..what?]
Leon...

I suppose I am not entirely acceptable to many of the people here.
[And so instead... this is what he gets.]
That is only to be accepted.
no subject
That's not something to be accepted at all, Leon. There's nothing wrong with who you are...
[who are these people, he's gonna fight them.]
no subject
[That's all.
That's all he really expects at this point.]
This has only confirmed what I already knew to be true.
no subject
[stahn can't accept that.]
I don't know who you met that treated you like that, but... it's wrong. It's wrong for them to do that, and it's wrong to believe that's just the way people are.
no subject
Believe what you will. Until I have seen otherwise, I will continue to believe for myself what I know and have seen to be true.
[Stahn is just...an exception, as is Otome. The others? They're a mess.]
no subject
[there are so many good people in cerealia, stahn is sure of that.
but...]
Those people... they were wrong, anyway. Anyone who would say anything like that... they're wrong.
