This makes Alfred giggle - and just a little bit, he presses his leg into the touch.
"Maybe. At least, it might be a factor."
It IS comfortable, and that surprises the boy. Being UNcomfortable is something of a default state....
And yet, here he is.
Reaching out on impulse, he hooks his hand under Herbert's calf, pulling gently - lifting up his work to hint that the vampire can swing his legs across Alfred's lap, if he likes.
Inviting him closer, bit by bit.
Showing he is comfortable, instead of just saying so.
