[ As far as Kalim is concerned, Jamil shouldn't have to worry about him anyway. There's nothing inherently dangerous about tutoring, even with another dorm's students. Then again, there's nothing more dangerous about tutoring their own students than those in other dorms, either. Danger lurks both everywhere and nowhere, depending on how they choose to view the lens of their own situation.
To that end, neither of them should have to worry about the things that worry them. Assassins and poisons and kidnappers lurking around every corner? They should never have been burdened with that, and Jamil less so than Kalim. Some day, they'll both learn that. And perhaps with that clarity will come patience, with themselves and with one another. But until then?
Until then, Kalim is grinning sheepishly, and holding up his hands while he takes a few steps away from the prep table. Jamil absolutely does not need to know how often Kalim has watched him cook on the security feed. ]
