[That does nothing to get rid of the frown, and instead only makes Leia more concerned. She steps closer to him, her gaze searching for any signs of bruises or anything else that may have been left behind in a fight.]
And you're okay now?
[Well sure he's standing and talking just fine, and probably was out training or something earlier because of how he's dressed, but she's worrying. Because she knows just how hard he can and does push himself. Such as that time he didn't get a new amulet soon after his old one was full.]
[There's not a bruise or cut to be found on him, despite the split lip and black eye he'd gotten during that fight. But it was about a month ago, now, and he heals quickly.]
Clearly.
[Either lecture him or act worried about him, pick one. He gets annoyed when she attempts to do both.]
As reassuring a fact as that is, that doesn't mean I don't worry.
[She could point out a few major incidents she isn't sure were indicative of any real self-preservation instinct, but that's beside the point. She wants to trust that, at least for now, Ben is capable of and does take care of himself just fine. Not that she won't worry anyway.]
[Having lost interest in the conversation, Ren turns back towards the glass doors to the yard, trusting that Leia knows the way out. He has no interest in her concern and he doesn't deserve it, anyway.]

But, she's satisfied with having found nothing. Not that she's pleased this fight happened, but he's fine now, and that's what's important.]
Don't neglect to take care of yourself, Ben. People do care about you.
[Which means don't pick unnecessary fights.]

[As much as he tends to doubt her statement, he has no intention of doing any permanent damage to himself.
Most of the time.]I've made it to thirty-one without major incident, so I think I can manage.
