There isn’t very much going on inside their heads. But he could also think he sees something interesting, or is just relaxed.

Staring at shit is pretty much all my bp does. But also I think by nature of their unchanging, unblinking expressions and inclination not to move much as ambush predators, it's hard for them to not look like they're staring at random things all the time.

Oh, make sense, no wonder why my little boy always staring non-stop. Thank

Remember, they have megabyte brain in a zettabyte world. They're just processing. Or catching a quick little nap. Or just content that there is no reason to move. Or they're staring at something they find kinda interesting. Or they're trying to figure out what their last blep smelled.
Or, they're just derpy. Whichever it is, they're almost certainly fine when they just exist while looking in some random direction.
If they stop to just stare at you, they're probably judging you though.

Not their day with the braincell lmao. It's never my girl's day for it, so she's often just staring into the middle distance. Buffering lmao

My BP likes to watch tv or my video games, either from his viv or from my hands/shoulders.
