It's times like that that make reading Lavi near impossible, for him. Because there seems to be amusement in the tone, the relaxed way his partner catch his chin on his fist and simply... observes him. Like Kanda himself is a part of the history Lavi is so intent on chronicling.
It's an odd, slightly uncomfortable thought, and one that (like so many others lately) gets pushed to the side. Instead of focusing on that, he leans forward to rest his forearms on the table, fingers laced loosely, lets his gaze cut around to automatically sweep the room, some part of him ever assessing the threats that may be waiting as he shakes his head.]
