[ BABY STEPS, NEJI. Just like Jeff is trying not to be too much of an overbearing teacher-dadfriend-pack(???)-whatever all at once, lest he scare him away, he needs... very slow encouragement before he can live up to his full stabbing potential. ]
haha :) [ The smiley's there to convey he's actually sincerely laughing! Why yes, Jeff is the type to worry if laughter just looks sarcastic over text, why do you ask-- ] Okay I walked into that one
Good. I'm just
[ Oddly protective over a kid he barely knows? Is this what having an empty nest feels like? Or is it...
No, he's pretty sure he knows what it is. He doesn't really understand all this pack stuff, the alpha-beta-omega thing, but he knows what he is, and he knows he feels more comfortable around other omegas than he does with alphas and betas. There's a degree of kinship there, and maybe... maybe all that undirected dadness in him is mixed up in the omega thing and here we are. ]
I just want you to make it clear that if you ever need anything or anyone gives you shit TROUBLE, you can come to me. I may not be able to stab a guy but I can help. We're both newbies here but we're not alone
And I promise I won't just leave the knife in the kitchen
