"Has your time on tour made you forget how to knock?"

Smoothly, no tension in Louis as he rises from the lovely low couch he had been seated upon when Daniel let himself in. A book dropped to the coffee table, a scattering of legal documents fluttering as it lands. Louis had felt Daniel somewhere within the strip of a backyard. Could perhaps have prevented the breaking and entering, but felt no real urgency to do so.

Still, deep fondness in his face as Daniel enters the room. Moving already to reach for him, clasp Daniel's hands in his own.

"You could have told me you wanted to see me."

As Louis considers asking why, and how Daniel came to be here. Louis has been careful as he moves about the globe. His skirmishes have been few, but violent. Not insurmountable, but good motivation to fly below the radar. Louis has had to stretch his own awareness, given the attention he's attracted. Given the vendettas piled up around his door. Despite all their arguments and conversations, despite Lestat's best efforts, not every eye follows him. (And some still judge Louis the easier target. Younger, isolated, no longer linked to Armand.) Some follow Louis. Most he would not be so pleased to welcome into one of his homes.
