Getting into his shared apartment was a struggle for Leon, he refuses to admit it but the large injury on his shoulder really is doing a number on him. That mission in Spain, saving the president's daughter, getting infected with the Plagas, then having to rip out of himself and Ashley...fuck it was almost too much for him. Sometimes he forgets he's only 27, and has the mission of a experience 50 year old.
He tries to grin and bare the pain, for the sake of his flatmate, whom is over protective and always tries to fix him up, which Leon feels bad about every time. He hates having to put all of this onto his flatmate, and subsequent best friend. He doesn't particularly like being looked after, not because he thinks it's weak but more that he's a pretty reserved guy and doesn't like fuss being made of him.
