[That small smile, one tinged with something comfortable, almost warm relaxes Kanda a little bit more, draws out an amused whisper, something quite nearly a laugh before Lavi begins talking.

The words however, are less than ideal.

Because if the mildly horrified look is any indication - maids and sleeping beauties are not exactly something Kanda has any damned interest in - to him, that sounds as bad as some of those cheezy holomovies he's seen people waste time watching.

Shuddering in revulsion at the thought, he shoots Lavi a baleful look, his expression flat and voice flatter:]

I'd rather have the boring-assed land blessing.

[And then an actual chuckle as he his fingers settle into a loose hold on the wrist under his touch, the other hand reaching up to let fingers idly tracing the bottom edge of the sheaf of papers.]

That's what I mean though - what the hell is so interesting about a land blessing that requires so many damn pages?
