"What, so you can look like a raccoon?" Ben teases, whining at the push away. He's seconds away from starting to windmill and smack at Klaus, which would definitely ruin this tender reunion, but he also feels like he's allowed to be a little bit of an asshole, just sometimes.
Or, well, mostly times when Klaus sees.
"I just talked to her, Vanya did the real work," he insists and truly believes that. "You guys all tried, you just didn't have the super special amazing Ben Hargreeves ability to be dead and possess a body." He nudges Klaus' shoulder. "Good thing someone else let me practice on him."
Not that it had gone well.
His good mood and his ease fades away when Klaus mentions the house, not because he doesn't want to, not because he isn't excited, but it's a lot to imagine seeing his siblings for the first time in almost two decades, and immediately moving right to living with them. "...Cool," he says, even if his brow is furrowed and he's trying to figure out what he's feeling, apart from a lot.
