hey, don't say that. don't say that. because leo knows izumi's right. except he had realized it (too late, unfortunately), so there's nothing he can say to defend himself. leo can blame the void for it all he wants, but ultimately he was the one who picked up the sword, regressed, and no amount of trying to push that aside and say it's okay, it's okay, will ever change that fact.
which is why the "then" there hurts so much? and it feels like a bit of a betrayal, too, because wasn't it izumi's job to make sure he didn't get to that point in the first place...?
ah, wait, no...
that's not right. or maybe it is? just-- whatever it is, either way, he can't find the words to respond to this. everything is a mess in his already frazzled mind, the worry and annoyance that sena's treating him too much like glass making way for the sheer guilt in the face of really, really fucking up.
or-- ]
Mm... I get it, I get it. Are you a nightmare too, Sena?
[ wouldn't stabbing him in the gut this much be blair's this place's modus operandi?
or maybe that's just leo tsukinaga finding an excuse to run from his issues again. ]
You're saying aaall the stuff that hurts me the most, even though I already know it! Even though you were right there holding a sword with me!
[ even when he knows he deserves the shit being thrown at him
even more so now that those words come out of his mouth, ah, ]
