( James is a protector through and through; that means ensuring others are comfortable, feeling valued, and giving them a "home" wherever he can ensure it. He wants everyone around him to feel safe, but wanting it and hearing you've accomplished it are... different animals. So he's a bit embarrassed, but incredibly thankful.
He's very glad he's able to give the other man somewhere safe. )
When have I ever "just said" anything? I don't like to be dishonest. Would you rather I compliment your gentle touch, your caring demeanor, or how endearingly simple it is to fluster you?
I enjoy spending time with you as well, Shigeru. Thank you for having me. Your trust in me has meant more than you realize, and more than I could ever successfully put into words.
