   Summary

   One day he woke up and he was done: with the League and Macro Cosmos, the titles and the sponsors. He was free! Except no one told him how goddamn scary freedom could be.

   (Or, Leon tries to figure out what to do with the rest of his life. Raihan being part of that was just... inevitable, at this point.)
