"That might be the one thing you're right about, then," I allow. Waiting just a couple seconds after he flops into my lap to process 'did that really happen. is he really--yes he is. is he staying?' type thoughts, I adjust to at least make it comfortable for him, and then rest a hand on Kazari's arm.

Yeah, this isn't. Bad. Awkward, maybe? Different--but not bad. I don't mind him being like this, so long as it doesn't get embarrassing. Still, I seem to relax a little more, maybe him being like this is comforting? Yeah. That seems like the right word for it.
