After a moment of cogs turning in his brain, trying to retroactively handle this breach of The Rules.
What he decides to do is simply remove his hands and place them back neutrally on his own folded legs. As if that will just undo the disobedience. It's rather like how a dog caught with something they aren't supposed to have will just drop it as if that will undo the crime of them having it in the first place. To underscore this, Izou mumbles (as if he, unlike a dog, understands deep down this isn't a defensible maneuver.)]
