Leon nodded. Claude was merely pointing out some of the pros he'd already thought over himself, though it helped to hear someone else say them. It made it feel like a more viable option. And he was right - he could always go back to the way things were if it didn't work out as he hoped.

"Is this all right with you, Claude?" He tilted his head, watching his older brother figure carefully. "It doesn't bother you that I've taken this on, does it?"
