[Venting was to be expected in such an environment, and honestly Pegasus had wanted to know more about the man so he'd asked about some of what they'd been discussing so he didn't think Leo was at fault. Not to mention part of this arrangement was so that they could get to know one another, and he accepted that that might come with a heavier background. Much of what he learned already told him much about the man.

Emotions are something that very much affect Pegasus as well, so he sympathized, really he did.]

Please...I wished to know. You needn't hide such things from me, Mister Leo. I am hardly someone who would not wish to hear of it simply because of the heavier subject material. I know it's important to you, and I do wish to get to know you better. I simply thought the turn of conversation could use a little pep, if you will.

[Not everything has to be doom and gloom, after all. He smiled to reassure the man sitting across from him, showing that he's not at all bothered by any of what he's been told. It was a lot to take in, but he enjoyed spending time with people, and learning about them. To think before this he had been so lonely, now he had more people surrounding him than he knew how to handle.]

Heh. I'm glad you see how I envisioned it. Not many do.
