[Non-benders? That means that bending itself may be a talent you simply do or don't have. But Leo sure wouldn't mind learning whatever techniques are involved; Korra's from a different world, Leo would love to find out how their style varies. Also she seems enthusiastic about it, choosing to use both methods where she could probably bank on that bending stuff. Leo appreciates that dedication, and wonders how good she really is.
If they faced off, her bending would undoubtedly present a novel challenge; there's few things Leo loves more than an opportunity to stretch his skill. He prefers to win of course, but in lieu of that he's an enthusiastic learner, striving to get better all the time. Leo is determined to be a Master some day, just like his father.
Also? Blue is the best. These two have entirely too much in common.]
Well, I guess it could be a matter of rank. I am the leader.
[But that pride and cockiness fade when she asks about his parents. Having a single parent has never bothered him in the slightest - they're so fortunate to have Splinter, who's devoted his life to raising and training them. Without him they wouldn't have survived; heck, they wouldn't even be mutants, and their best-case scenario would have been the inside of an aquarium for the rest of their little four-legged turtle lives.
Leo wouldn't trade Sensei for all the parents in the world, and the ache of his missing father leaves a gaping hole in Leo's chest. It's been a good month and a half now, and he's never gone more than 24 hours without seeing or talking to Splinter. Leo's body language changes completely and his foot twists on the ground a little, a scuffle that turns into a small kick of gravel.]
He's... not here. He's back home. [Leo isn't sure if he wants Splinter to come here or not, but if what Tu Vishan told him in his dream is true - that they're really NOT missing from home, that time essentially freezes for them - then he fervently hopes to see his father in Keeliai some day. They need him... Leo needs him.]
Leos is Leos, that's for sure
