"You're going off on your own??" Having just had his own doubts about setting off into the dark that night by himself, Leon wasn't quite ready to believe that someone else - especially someone who appeared perhaps younger than himself - would want to wander off just like that. Though perhaps Lei already had a group waiting for him? "You've got someone to meet up with, right?"

All that said, he didn't do anything else physically to stop him. It would be hypocritical of him to assume that the boy didn't have some means of taking care of himself.

Leon shook his head at Xelloss's question, still watching Phibrizzo's retreating figure. "I didn't get a chance to make plans," he said in a voice that indicated he'd greatly wished he had.
