[ Aww, Saul, you don't really think he'd hurt you, do you?
...Don't answer that.
But their bodies are pressed close enough together that Saul can feel the slight relaxation of Lalo's muscles against his back. The gun goes away, slipped back into the waistband of his pants, for now. Of course there are a million good reasons not to walk around with a fully cocked, presumably loaded gun pointed directly at your dick, but that's why remotely sane people don't do it.
Maybe it's Kim's palms tipped up in submission, signaling she no longer threatens to take control over the conversation away from him. Or maybe it's just that Saul almost always seems to know the right 'cheat code' words to de-escalate violent cartel bosses, somehow. But whatever the reason, Lalo returns to being all smiles again. He releases Saul with a pat on the shoulder, gentler than the ones in the hallway from before. ] Easy there. You're okay.
See? Exactly. Nice chat. That's all I want. [ He nods agreeably to Saul's suggestion, as if he's been the reasonable one this entire time and not the crazy cabin-invading lunatic. ]
Why don't we all sit down and make ourselves comfortable, hm? I just have a couple of questions. Then I'll be on my way.
[ Gestures towards the bed, and waits for them both to sit. ]
