I-It was--
I--

[And you get a stunned stare.
Just like that? He's let off the hook just like that?
...oh who the hell is he kidding, this is Leonardo.
Christ Almighty, he should know better. True, he's wary of ever taking his friend's understanding for granted, but the least he could do is give him some credit.
The teen scrubs a hand through his hair, shoulders relaxing into a relieved droop.]
We can start your lessons back up again whenever you'd like. [Leo slides down from the stool and heads over to the fridge. He doesn't remember when he last ate, so he should probably do that.]

Oh well. Leo grabs a stool and pulls it over.]
So what happened?

There.
Was this--
Th-this...organized fight. People--p-pe--people entered, paired off, ff-f--fought.
I--I-I heard about a--a-around here from people, and...
I dunno. I--I thought--I thought it'd be a...
a--a good idea.

[Oh thank God.]
That's fine then, so long as it's voluntary. I didn't think you were the type to pick pointless fights anyhow.

No, sure, when-w-whenever.

He nods anyways, trying to look understanding as he sets the pot under the faucet and starts filling it with water.]
And, y'know, he--h-he could...come back.
