You can't tell me that little Hop didn't know how to play Raihan like a fiddle.
He was truly an master of manipulation.
Be it toys, stuffed animals or even real life Pokémon.
Leon was less than happy with that. Despite being played like an kazoo himself.
Leon (16): you can't be serious. Please tell me that you didn't gift Hop an swablu.
Raihan (17): I can explain!
Leon: you are an grown man! Next in line to become the gym leader of hammerlocke! How do you keep on being manipulated by a 6 year old?!
Raihan, close to tears: he wanted to give Woolloo an fluffy friend!
Leon: Swablu are illegal!
Raihan: look a them! Are you seriously going to separate them?!
Leon:
Leon: shit.

A headcanon and plot bunny for Leon and Raihan that makes my heart go: <3
Both of them have some experiences with romantic relationships. But each of their last serious ones ended years ago.
They have only recently started to perceive each other differently - which includes in a romantic light - after learning new things about each other. They're still growing and healing from the changes brought from the Darkest Day and everything after.
So. they both agreed to take it slowly.
Leon, as part of that, starts a big spreadsheet. He has been using spreadsheets as part of therapy - to understand his own feelings better, gauge why he feels this way about certain thing, keep track of important information about friends and family, etc.
It works for him because he loves analyzing data, so it's an easy routine for him to follow.
This spreadsheet is for Raihan and him to fill:
Gauge what they want and need out of a romantic relationship. What romantic actions they feel comfortable with. How to nurture their friendship because Raihan is an important friend to Leon, boyfriends or not.
Categories include (these and content to be updated when needed):
- Romantic Actions
- Intimacy
- Who to tell about their relationship and when
- Public Displays of Affection (context, time, around which people)
- Emotional Support (which kinds they prefer in which circumstances, how much they expect, etc.)
- Love Languages
- And More
Leon also knows that Raihan loves to analyze things, too. To learn, to understand. He does this because he wants to show him how serious Leon is about this. He explains him how everything is organized and what he was thinking when making it while presenting it to him.
Raihan goes through the entire spreadheet. It's detailed. It's organized. It's easy to make connections.
The more columns and rows he sees, the more flustered he becomes, the more his face feels like it's on fire. He's over the moon. Leon has put all this work in to reassure him. This is the most romantic thing anybody ever has done for Raihan.
