Things just keep showing up, and while he wonders what it is that required that face on Oz's face and his name being spoken like that... he's also not sure he wants to know what it's about. If he wants to add anything more to his shoulders just yet.]
[It takes a second to note the other's appearance and then a further one to note that Leo seems entirely alright. Still hasn't completely set in that he's back at Somarium just yet.
Though that doesn't stop a relieved smile from showing on his face nonetheless]
[Exhales a breath and just.. tries to gather his wits about him the best he's able to. Pausing only a little when the other asked that, which made him blink a bit in mild confusion.
Leo didn't know? But that meant only one thing...
Oz glanced around where he had ended up and then back at the dreamberry shortly.]
Ah... I... accidentally slipped and ended up punching you in the heat of the moment.
With how you were acting back home, I kinda didn't have any choice..
[He originally meant the sorry to be for what Jack pulled what he had but he'd leave that part out for now. He'd started to remember where he was and the memories that'd come with it] I am back in Somarium, aren't I?
Well.. it's just that I don't really like hitting anyone close to me so...
[Those words are followed by a slightly sheepish laugh.
Deep down he knows Leo likely wouldn't entirely buy it but it was better than the alternative. Though knowing Leo was here was already bad in it's own way as with Jack... there was the chance he'd surface again and what happened would repeat itself]
I wasn't too sure but... I did have to check. Wouldn't want to make an assumption and have it be wrong~
They were going to show us what happened in Somarium before we came here, a war, as spectators in a dreamscape. It backfired, though, so we ended up as actual parts of the dream.

I...I'm sorry...

[Now that just doesn't make sense. Alright? And apologising?
He's not sure he wants to know but.]
For what?

But for now, he'll accept that, let everything slide and move on. He just... can't. He only smiles a little wryly, and shakes his head.]
Apologising for punching me, Oz? Only you...
[Both Oz and Elliot are simply too kind...]
You are.

A lot was going on back home before I showed up here..

Seems that way, huh?
[A forced, small smile curls his lips and he lets silence linger briefly for just a moment]
Did I miss anything while I was gone?

Did something happen with that?

[A slight pause and he can't help but laugh softly]
I just wish I would have been here to help.
