Ensure both computers are connected to your LAN.

Install TightVNC on both computers.  Configure the server component on 
the laptop, and the client component on the desktop.

<https://www.tightvnc.com/>

Using the keyboard+mouse on the desktop you can work with the desktop, 
or run the client and work with the laptop.  While doing this, you can 
still use the keyboard and mouse on the laptop.
