Sissel's full attention is on the TV though he does notice when Randel relaxes. Turning his head to regard the tall human, he draws his eyes away from the moving pictures. And with a wiggle of his butt and a dance of his front paws, he leaps up and scrambles onto Randel's shoulder to settle against him and the back of the couch.

Higher vantage point and better view of the TV. All pluses to him.
