"Curious, yes. Loudmouth, very much so. Unfortunately for the rest of us you contain multitudes," Armand answers with an airy wave of the hand, moving the edge pieces of the puzzle into a little pile. "If you did not you would be dead."
Now he seems curious about making piles of the pieces in similar shapes, for whatever reason. Not helpful but at this point he seems to be going about the puzzle not unlike a kid just making a mess or making piles of his toys instead. Focused on it as he leans against Daniel, though his attention couldn't be more obviously on Daniel himself.
Enough that he even breaks his nonchalance to look to Daniel, assessing as he asks, "What is the truth of Daniel Molloy 'when you get right down to it,' then?"
"Trying to get me to explain my psychological weaknesses because you can't pull them out of my head for free anymore?"
Naughty ancient mad scientist. Though Daniel thinks that some of this might be actual, genuine curiosity on Armand's part. Neither of them have any experience with being what they are to each other. Pretty nuts. His tone is teasing, anyway. Whether or not it's intentional, it's kinda funny that he's doing it.
"I'm just some asshole with no friends and a completely estranged family."
Horrible, as noted. But some horrible things are ordinary, and isn't that worse? There's more he could say, now. He could talk about how sometimes, he thinks Louis would be disappointed in him, and it's an unpleasant thought. But not as unpleasant as the idea of eating rats and barricading himself away from the world except to get in fights. He knows he should feel bad about murdering people, and he feels a little bad over not feeling at all bad. But still not as bad as he should.

He flips over a puzzle piece. Fish nose.
