[ ah, dear. his expression melts into something impossibly fond as he watches sofia struggle with the concept that kaz's tentative branching out into the world may end in abject failure. it's a worthwhile concern; after all, kaz had shunned the idea of dating when he was a teenager after an attempt not going very well. this felt a bit different, though. for one, kaz seemed content with having her as a friend. for another, tomassen would be shocked if inej was even remotely interested in touching anyone, particularly a man.
so he reaches out to take a hand in her own, bringing it to his lips in a kiss. ]
You're worked up over it because you're his loving, patient, beautiful, incredible mother.
[ mildly, squeezing her fingers in reassurance. ]
From Kaz's own report, she is quiet and neat, and doesn't invade his personal space. [ and, perhaps most importantly: ] He would have told me if he was in over his head -- and he has, to his credit. He isn't trying to deal with this on his own; he immediately called me when he realized the scope of the problem.
[ which, really, tomassen is rather impressed by. typically, kaz gives it a solid effort on his own first, but once the boy realized the enemy... well. tomassen offers sofia another warm smile before he presses another kiss to the backs of her fingers. ]
I adore you.
[ just in case she needed to hear it (again) for the evening. ]
