Fitz's natural protectiveness towards the Fool has been exacerbated by the
appalling events in Aslevjal, and Fitz can acknowledge that. He can also
acknowledge, with a complete lack of shame, that he does not care if his
motives are as transparent as air. The two of them have seen each other
hurt, gravely injured, and even killed by circumstances too often. If he
can alleviate this for the Fool, even only a little.
He frowns. His usual pleasure at the Fool's ability to find friendship is
muted by his concern. "Then I am pleased for you about this Devin Parker,
and I note that this must indeed be something reasonably momentous."
