[ Conversations both idle and revered keep him busy, walking the line of the garden with the pleasant chatter of an Uncle at his ear. He pauses ever so often to see if he can spot Yu's figure--expecting, perhaps, some retaliatory anger for his not so veiled threat--but the man never appears at his peripheral.
Surprising, all things considered. The worst that would really come for failing to heed Lavi's words is broken trust, but that.. seems to mean more to Yu than he gives it credit for.
Or maybe he's just plotting, the young bookman considers as an afterthought, laughter warmed that much more to a bad joke whispered into his ear.
It's some time before he returns to the place he'd left Yu, to find the man now centered on a stone like a new fixture in the garden. He considers saying something to alert the other of his presence, strolling to the well-worn jacket on the bench..
.. but really, why interrupt the perfect opportunity for a nap? Meditation is probably as close to sleep as Yu gets these days, and Lavi just need like.. four..five... twenty-seven more hours of sleep to be right as rain himself.
So that's how the attendant uncle finds them later, one deep in meditation, the other thoroughly and stubbornly asleep with a rolled up jacket under his arm. Evidently certain he can't wake the redhead (Lavi has a reputation for taking up a certain window in the library), he smiles warmly, clearing his throat softly and calling out to Kanda from the base of the boulder.
"Ah, young man, they're ready for you two now, if the bookman is ready?"]
