Thomas smiling whenever James surprises him though… like when James took his question about stabilising Nassau seriously and gave it some thought or when he stood up to defend him or when he showed off his wit and intelligence or okay fine . Thomas smiling because of James slays me.

figmentof:

he just smiles at James like:

“wow he actually answered my question properly…. i’m gonna rewarddistract him with how cute i am” ok Thomas nO WAIT

and then:

he just??? smiles with tears in his eyes because wtf James actually defended him and put his own career on the line???? i’m????

and ofc how can we ever forget this smile:

Thomas smiling because of James slays me as well we’re all dead tbh
