18th roar [ text + action for Olivine ]

The Yuffie from Radiant Garden is gone.

[ private text to Minnie ]
I'll be knocking out the kitchen today and putting in the orders for the new material. Have you decided on your countertops?

[ Leon can later be found rummaging around inside the skeletal remains of the house they're renovating, Yuffie's little pichu tucked into the crook of his neck. The ruff of his collar is sticking up like an angry cat, but Leon hardly minds. He's just going to be flinging himself into work for the next few days. ]

[sdkfhskdf- what the hell, Leon? Don't scare him like that!]

...kiddo?

[adamant]

...don't.

[ Just. Baffled. His nose scrunches up a bit in distaste before he moves to go back to work. ]

Why not? It's a habit of mine.

[Well, at least Leon wasn't angry about it. Just... shocked. Though the nose scrunch was hilarious. But Laguna managed to refrain from laughing.

[adamant]

[ He gives Laguna a sour look. No one's called him that in twenty years, and he isn't about to let a relative stranger--especially one claiming to be Squall's father--start. ]

Do I look like a kid to you? Save it for when he gets back.

[He takes that with ease and a shrug.]

Honestly, giving me an angry look is way better than fearing for my life. Kid or not, it's just a habit for those under 30.

Wouldn't 'Leon' be easier...?

[ And piss him off less! He murmurs encouragingly and watches Pichu as she scurries into the ceiling, taking the wires with her. ]

I'm already having to consciously remember not to call you Squall.

[Was that a pout? By George it was!]

[action]

[adamant]

[ A vague, disapproving grunt. ]

You're being difficult. Just call me Leon.
