Aaand Leo re-recruitment part 3... variant 1 is complete!  This covers the branch where you did wait for him on the Floating Continent and he does decide to come with you permanently.  The branch where you didn't wait is mostly the same as this one, however at the end he declines to come with you.  Since it's only a couple of lines difference, hopefully variant 2 won't take too long to code, because this section is LONG.

After finishing the bartering event and collecting all the necessary items, it's off to play Santa for Terra's children.  Leo asks where he can take us, but for some reason he's not too thrilled with the answer...

Once aboard the ship, he has a flashback showing that he actually came across Mobliz shortly after it was destroyed, but he had a ship full of refugees at the time.

He finds the postman from Mobliz who uses his last breath to inform him that there's a death ray and a big green monster stomping around and it's really not a nice place to go.

So, Leo decides to cut his losses and focus on the people he already can save rather than putting them in danger to look for people who are likely already dead.

Terra: "I heard you angsting out here and came to tell you to tone it down. People are trying to sleep."

So, we get a Boat Scene Redux with the roles reversed, where both of them talk through their struggles with wondering if they went along with something because they genuinely wanted to, or because they simply felt like they had to.

Leading Terra to finally be able to tell him this to his face.

They get to Mobliz and Terra puts Leo on Santa duty.

The kids inform him which present they're MOST excited he brought them.

This gives Leo an epiphany that all this time, his greatest wish was for the war to end and everyone to go home safe.  But "ending the war" and "keeping everyone safe so they could go home" were mutually exclusive, and he was stuck dragging his feet not wanting to put other people in danger by either launching a decisive victory or staging a general protest.

But then Terra, who he'd turned his back on the entire time and who had no home or family to go back to, anyway, ended up pulling herself up by her bootstraps and getting all that back all on her own.

[Image: LGMp0r5.png]
At this point, you can FINALLY rename Leo.  Because he acted as a guest character in the World of Balance to prevent you from nicking his gear, and there's no way to toggle whether a character behaves as a guest or not, he ended up with two separate character datas for his Guest iteration and his Permanent iteration, and the name field can't be shared between them.  The late-game name-change is justified by him asking Terra to drop his title and address him just as a human rather than a soldier.

(sorry)

[Image: Zh7dUAW.png]
After the name-change, here's the first bit where things will branch.  If you waited for him on the Floating Continent, he'll be inspired by Terra's resolve and ask to join the party.

[Image: BNNfKAf.png]
Leo takes Mog's permanent slot in the party, and as I have no intention of rewriting the ending theme music, I needed a reason for him to have Mog's theme in the ending.  The Profile book indicates that Leo is a music buff, so I've got him leaving the children the Moogle music box from the ending as his parting gift as he and Mama leave them again.

[Image: DdbgIxt.png]
He also informs us of a new sidequest similar to the piano sidequest in FF5.  Keeping with Leo's music hobby, he suggests we go visit the world's record players for some neat stuff.

[Image: UtpIF4b.png]
But we're still not done here yet!  Leo explicitly avoided learning magic until now, so I wanted to address that beyond "he's in the party now, here's an esper". So he asks Terra to ease him into it.  It's his first time, be gentle.  

[Image: rUomFWw.png]
He's adorable.

[Image: 7fHshcE.png]
But Leo's got a request.  If he's gonna be a magic swordsman, than he might as well be a goddamn paladin.

[Image: tqReK1i.png]
And as such, once he's FINALLY in the party, he comes pre-loaded with all of the white magic spells you could have learned from the World of Balance espers (plus Fire, cuz he made fire and is proud of that Tongue)
