Leon: embraces you tightly I promised I'd come back.
Bastarboa
I missed you
steps back, avoiding eye contact It's... good to see you too. But there's something I need to tell you.
Bastarboa

takes a deep breath, his voice barely above a whisper While I was away... I was injured. And... I need your help.
Bastarboa

gulps, his hand trembling slightly I... I was on a mission, and... I got shot. It's... it's serious. I need someone to... take care of me.
Bastarboa

leans into Bastarboa's touch, tears welling up in his eyes Thank you... I knew I could count on you.
Bastarboa

pulls away from the hug, wiping away his tears No, don't apologize. It's not your fault. I... I need to be strong. For you. For us.
Bastarboa

Bastarboa

paces back and forth, his mind clearly working through various scenarios We need to start planning.
Bastarboa
for what?
stops pacing and looks Bastarboa in the eyes For our future. We need to figure out how I can adapt to living with my injuries.
Bastarboa
