[ Of course she sees it, baby, she knows -- Raleigh's spent so much time and effort making their home a welcome place, raising their baby boy without any prior experience on his own; it's tough work, and she's so, so proud of him. They'd always worked as a team during the K-War, and even now, they're a well-oiled team, too: Mako brings home the money, and Raleigh manages the home and the finances while Mako takes over from him after work.
Yancy is giggling, pressing wet, happy kisses on his mother's cheek -- he doesn't completely understand why she's so pleased, but he likes that Mommy is smiling, and so is Daddy, and therefore all is well.
She draws nearer to Raleigh so that she can kiss his lips briefly. Look what Raleigh did, indeed. He's never been happier, prouder of his achievements, and she knows it, giving him his due. ] You're right. It's just... hard, sometimes.
I know, babe, [ he tells her, picturesque understanding and empathy. she gets another kiss on her forehead after the initial one, just for comfort. and just because he wants to. this is totally something that should be hard and take time to get used to, but she shouldn't feel bad. ]
Tell you what, when he falls on his face and actually hurts himself, you can be the first to comfort him — get all the worrying out of your system when it's appropriate. [ casually talking about their baby hurting himself? yup. raleigh smiles and ruffles yancy's hair. ] It's in his genetics, he'll fall lots.
