[ While the glasses do make it difficult to really read Dirk, K's been getting better at interpreting everything else in his expression and body language to fill in the blanks. Noticing these subtle nuances is literally part of his programming as a detective, but it's his lived experience that enables him to pretty accurately guess at what's happening. Enough that he thinks they ought to explore touching each other's Omens more... ]

So it's probably kind of weird to be watching someone this intently while they eat, but — this is a big deal to K, even more than he's let on thus far.
When Dirk's Omen suddenly poofs up and chirps, expressing everything that Dirk keeps so carefully shuttered, K just can't help it any longer. His shoulders are shaking with silent mirth that soon enough he can't contain, huffing a pleased laugh as he covers his mouth with one hand. ]
I'm very happy you like it.
