[Herz knows he needs to cool his jets when he's having trouble turning the door handle. His palms are sweating something fierce. After the door's open, he wipes them on his pants.
His room's back to how it used to be--covered in books and clothes--save a distinct, new smell. Herz has been smoking and there's no disguising the stink of nicotine coating the room. In fact, there's an open pack and a lighter sitting in plain view on his dresser top. Now his ears burn. He didn't tell Leo about his new addiction. He's not dumb--he knows the ninja wouldn't approve.
Best to just...clear the air. Admit it.]
I--I'm sorry...about...
The--th-th-the smell.
