[Sora just lets it rain, getting him all soaked too. Emotional effects are the last of his concerns right now.]

Leadership is more than just doing jobs right and having people follow you. It's about working together no matter what. It's about believing in the strength of others and yourself.

Being with others, working with them, that's what makes a good leader. You tried to do this job all on your own, right? You don't have to do everything by yourself, Squall.

[Not anymore? Not again? This is where Sora reaches out to stop Squall from walking, taking a hand to keep him still.]

No one's asking you to be anyone other than you. I... I don't know what happened to you, but I want you to be able to depend on me and to trust me. Even if it's just a little tiny bit, I promise I won't hurt you like you've been hurt before.

[He does something he's done for friends before. He presses a hint of warm trust and appreciation into Squall's palm with dunamis. To try and show Squall how genuine he is about that. He smiles up at Squall and nudges him.]

Try to cheer up, I'm not going anywhere no matter how much you try and get rid of me.

[Sora winces a little when that thunder cracks. Did he make things worse?]

Just some dunamis magic to try and cheer you up. Are you okay??

[Did Squall just blue-screen? Does he need a reboot?

Sora steps up and reaches up to poke Squall's cheek.]


You're not gonna die from it, you big dummy.

[In seriousness,] I mean how it feels, though.

Breaking through? Come on, Squall. You make it seem like I'm breaking you down or something!

[He just wants Squall to be okay. Seeing him like this really hurts.]

Take a super deep breath in and smile really, really big.

[He imitates this himself. Inhale, and smile.]

I know it can feel really scary opening up to people. But you should try thinking of it like building you up, not breaking you down!

[You asked for this.

He reaches up and pinches Squall's cheeks into a smile.]


Ya you do.

Hey-

[Sora doesn't relent his grip but Squall's counterattack does have Sora's face screwing up.

He sputters and laughs, his words coming out garbled from the pinching.]
Shee- Wuzz zat so aard?

[Translation: "See, was that so hard?"]

[He tries to mutter back, "Of course it counts!!" but it comes out much more muffled and garbled with Squall squishing his cheeks into a fish like that.

Instead Sora shakes with amusement and laughter and finally tries to struggle out of Squall's grip, resulting in Sora letting go of Squall's cheeks.]


Admit it, it's making you feel better!

Like yours is much better, Leon.

[He sticks his tongue out at Squall and goes "Nyyya!"]

Come on, do you at least feel a little better?

Well, what does it feel like inside?

[Sora's expression softens again but he can't help but laugh lightly.]

You just gotta get used to it. Emotions are part of everyone, silly. You're not gonna die from them, right?
