Leon sits there with his head against Jay's for a moment, thinking, before pulling away. "Why can't you treat Orion like this?" he asks.
Jay sits there for a moment, staring at him, frowning. He looks away. "I can't talk about that with you," he says.
"Why not?" Leon asks, frustrated.
"Because it's not your job to take care of me." Jay fiddles with the ring on his right middle finger nervously, not making eye contact, as he continues. "You're 14, I'm 33, it's just... not right, to force you to be an adult and listen to my issues. Even if you're volunteering. It's not your place."

Then Jay should prooooobably take it to another adult, cuz it’s clearly affecting the 14 year old who’s problem it shouldn’t be.
Well, Jay needs to talk to *somebody*!
