Leopold was pretty certain he had no idea where they were. Scratch that, he definitely had no clue where they were. He cared very little for keeping tracks of such mundane things, for he thought things like that were a job for those lower than him. Which, currently, was nobody, although Leo liked to think himself above all the others because he was the result of select breeding and careful training throughout childhood. He didn't really like to think about that, because it made it seem like he was some project of his parents. Which he was, and that's why he didn't think about it.
All he knew was his feet hurt, Peanut wouldn't walk anymore and nobody would carry her so he was forced to, and he had lost his bag a few hours ago. Luckily, he still had the things that really mattered to him; Peanut, and the little blade that rested upon his chest underneath his shirt. It would've been amazing if his parents had been there, but Leo hadn't seen them in a long while, and he wasn't even entirely sure they were still alive.
The hotel was a bit of a surprise, once he actually noticed it. Actually, it was more of a surprise that he hadn't noticed it earlier, considering how large it was. Now that he realised it was there, it seemed impossible to not look at. Leo wondered if it'd be warm in there. Maybe there was some good food he could give to Peanut, although truth be told the fat little pomeranian didn't need it. Leo refused to notice how fat she was getting. It just made her cuter, okay?
After Axel and the others had looked inside, Leo had made his way to find the nicest room he could. Despite having traveled for so long, he did still have standards, and he refused to go into a room without making sure there weren't nicer ones elsewhere in the building. After a while, he gave up, as his feet screamed at him to sit down and Peanut began shifting restlessly in his arms. He ended up going into the closest room and flopping on the bed.
The young man hadn't been resting very long before he'd heard the knock upon his door. He'd heaved a great sigh, picked Peanut up from where she'd been lying on the threadbare sheets, and stood up. He wandered down to the lobby, icy gaze flicking around to take in everything. It was a bit surprising they all could fit in here, but he certainly wasn't complaining; he didn't want to touch any of the others in the group. Although they had travelled together and kept each other safe, Leo didn't want to stain his hands with whatever diseases and germs might be on the others. A lot of them were lower than him, or so he thought, and he didn't want to dirty his hands further.
He barely listened as Axel spoke, but began to focus when he brought up Prometheus. He wondered what had happened. Axel didn't seem to be too upset over it, but then again, Leo hardly would be either if it meant he'd become the leader. Although, perhaps Axel was just tired? He certainly could understand that, too. Maybe Leo should just pay more attention, and he wouldn't be so confused.
Leo didn't really understand quite why he had gone with them. His parents had told him long ago that if their nation would ever break, that Leo was to leave and try to start his own. Of course, he hadn't done that, but he'd done the next best thing, just as taught. Regardless of whether he understood why or not, he was going to stay. Even if they were staying in some city that was supposed to be cursed. He almost shuddered at the mere thought but held it back. He hadn't been trained for years for nothing, after all.
A new system, huh? That sounded like fun. Leo made the decision then and there to get high in the ranks of whatever system was created. He didn't really have any burning, incredibly important questions, but then again Leo thought all of his questions were important so it didn't matter if others thought them meaningless.
"Is it truly only a few miles away? And what of the curse? Has it suddenly disappeared?" Leo couldn't tell where they were on the map, and for a moment it made him a bit embarrassed, but he quickly banished the feeling. Someone such as him did not feel embarrassment over anything. Although, from the reactions of a few people, others certainly did feel embarrassment over what he had said. Or perhaps that was annoyance. He could never tell.
"SPEECH"
