Playing with expectations? Possibly. But while his counterpart… while Kaito was comfortable with him, the thief wasn’t completely privy to what troubled the other. Not that he ever pushed the magician by asking, either. Comfort, companionship, and, well, plenty of distraction, he could give… But they only went so far when he didn’t know what was wrong.

Maybe later, but for now, he’d just sit, watching the other roof with his knee pulled up in front of him, hands, then head resting on top of it, expressionless. This still took experimenting.
