Fenton smiled warmly, and took a step back, gesturing for Lyida to come in and make herself comfortable. "Thanks so much, Lydia. You're amazing, you know that?" His smile softened. "You're always there for everyone, supporting and offering reassurance to us all." He paused a moment, the corners of his mouth pulling down a little. "I hope there are plenty of people to return the favour in kind. ... If you're ever bothered by anything, if you ever need anything, you can always come to me, okay?"

He was hesitant, fearing he was not very good at the whole talking-about-emotions-and-comforting-people thing. It wasn't that he didn't have any ability in it, or a lack of desire... he just hadn't had much experience with it. For so long, it had just been him and his M'ma, and, well...until the last few years even that was rather strained, and distant. (He could see that, now.) And while his relationship with his mother was better, now... and he had a girlfriend, and other friends with the McDuck family and all, well... honest-to-goodness heart-to-hearts were just... generally not a thing. So Fenton felt out of his depth. But Lydia had been such a good friend, right from the word 'go', there was no way he COULDN'T make such an offer. He would definitely try his best to help.
