[ The warning helps, but Claude still doesn't move. That goes for both any muscle on himself or the weapon away since it wouldn't be the first time some overture of friendship hadn't turned out to be what it'd seemed. And - that drags forth the memory of telling Sylvain as much which he mentally pushes away. It still might not be Sylvain so that doesn't matter.
Neither does watching a drink be taken of whatever it is. Too late Claude realizes it doesn't prove anything - not like how he wants it to, whether that can even be done. There's decisions to be made and he vacillates between each none too quickly which means Sylvain will be left to wonder what's going on in the resulting silence.

Claude doesn't particularly want to withdraw his sort of blade, but common sense comes through for an instant to get him to even though he still keeps one hand clutched around it in his lap. ]

Doesn't mean there's not something else in there.
