Leo is pretty sure that usually, he's not almost stumbling over his feet while running. But maybe there's a reason for it; he's not about to think about it too much.

"I-- I need to hurry!"

He's pretty sure he doesn't normally talk to himself either. He's distracted by a voice up ahead, though, that he's not sure he recognises.

"…but, to win over miss Litchi's heart… what could I possibly--?"

But suddenly the owner of that voice is in front of him, and there's no time to move away. (But he can't help but notice that his view is very clear, and that there are no lights in his eyes.) "Ah!" he yelps, and runs right into the… quite big guy, oops.

"What?!" the guy exclaims, just as caught off-guard. "Ack!"

Leo stumbles back, grabbing his head. Feels like that got a little shaken up… That was seriously like running into a wall; how annoying.

"O-oww… I did it again…" he practically whines.

"Th-that was dangerous! Watch out!"

And he's pretty sure this isn't a person you want to piss off. Not that he cares.

"I-I'm sorry! I was in a hurry!"

"Thank goodness no one was hurt… You'd better be careful next time, young man!"

"Y-young man?! I'm a girl!"

…wait, what?

"A… girl…? E-excuse me! Your bosom is rather… lacking… so I honestly thought you were a boy…"

He's as surprised as you, big guy.

"L-lacking…?"

"Well, I mean… How do I say it…? It is most… reserved… I suppose."

Leo makes an annoyed sound, glares a little at the guy. Wow, how rude. He's not going to stand for that (he's not sure why he cares), and so he whips out his guns and shoots at nothing.

Seeing the guy pretty frightened, he feels quite content.

"Wha--?! Th-that was dangerous! What are you…!"

"I am Lieutenant Noel Vermillion, NOL Praetorian Guard, Fourth Division! You are under arrest for obstruction of justice and the public slandering of an officer!"

"Wh-wha--?!"

[Having fallen asleep against the wall in his room with a book, Leo pushes off the wall when he wakes, frowning in confusion for a moment. What even--

And then he remembers this is basically what happened to Oz, and as he reaches for the recording Dreamberry, he glances down to see himself… in Noel's outfit.

…

Wow.]

Not fair…

[He mutters, as he pushes himself up and tugs at the ends of the skirt. Or dress, he supposes is the right word.]

Oz gets a cloak, and I get a dress.

[And then he turns the recording off.]

[There are no linefaces that properly express how he feels about this.]

That's good, I guess.

Perhaps you should dress this way all the time.

[He's still breathing pretty strangely, though yes, it's an act.]

And come visit.

No, I don't think so.

[The temptation to hang up is strong.]

So cruel. I just can't get a break when it comes to you.

I have no reason whatsoever to give you one.

Now, now. Such a pretty appearance and such a cold heart inside, it hardly suits.

[Uhm...]

It suits just fine.

Just take a good look in the mirror. Think about it again.

I know what I look like.

[There is nothing pretty about him, in anything.]

Ahhhh.

[There's a definite smile in his tone when he speaks again.]

You looked nicer when I could see your eyes.

My eyes?

[What is with these people?]

They're lovely. I will remember them forever, whether you let me see them or not.

[Ah, does he sound obsessed? It's just that this is strange to him, that's all.]

...

[Nope.]

They're horrible.

[And you are insane.]

You shouldn't talk about yourself that way, Leo.

[Pause.]

Elliot wouldn't like it.

That doesn't change it.

It should.

But it doesn't.

That's where your flaw lies, isn't it?

...

Perhaps.

Ah well, I suppose not everyone can be pretty and have other redeeming qualities.

No, I suppose not.

[They can be two, then. :3c]

Did you just admit you're pretty? In your little dress?

My apologies, I must not have been clear enough.

I was referring to you.

Oh? So you think that I'm pretty?

[He can't help but be pleased by this.]

You sure you don't want to come visit then? Why look through a thing like this when you could get... a closer view?

Well, judging from the reaction of the general female populace in your presence, I'd imagine you are considered pretty. Or handsome. Either works.

Although... Ah, I guess master Vincent has a certain mysterious air about him that drags people to him. Hmm, when thinking about it, that's rather typical of a suspicious person, in books...
