I settled in behind you, my hands coming to rest on the crown of your head, a quiet snicker escaping me while they tried to walk Leo through his first trick. -Kane: "No reason to be nervous. We all eat concrete sometimes." *His voice was a low murmur close to your ear, hands still resting lightly on your head as Dex fumbled through an explanation.*
