[Well, that certainly breaks the awkward tension, and gets a laugh outta Guzma. He shrugs with a grin, nodding in agreement, he is indeed the dude to get your illegal on with!
However, when Archie transitions into something a bit more serious, that smile starts to fade, his expression turning into one more inquisitive, if a little confused. He doesn't quite remember a Maxie (signaled by a shrug of his shoulders and small shake his head), but that doesn't mean that Archie didn't tell him, just a lot has been going on, and well... Guzma's memory is selective at best.
As he explains, that too fades away, being replaced with a flat, contemplative look, his eyes drifting away from Archie as he digests this. Maybe there's a part of him that's bothered by this (why is everyone projecting onto him, god), but there's another part of him that...gets it.
It doesn't leave him feeling great, with a small bubble of anxiety in his chest that he's fit to ignore, but not enough to not ask:]
So... [Guzma's brow creases, his eyes still not on Archie,] What is this, then?
