[ He gets a grip on that reaction a moment later, though nervousness still persists. This isn't a conversation he's ever needed to have before. The subject went comfortably unaddressed between he and Stanley, and the kids and their modern Californian sensibilities meant that neither hiding nor addressing it were ever necessary. He has no idea what Fiddleford's own perspective on the subject is, either, which means he has no idea where to start with his response.
He does know Fiddleford, though, and hateful isn't a word Ford's ever associated with him. Petty and stubborn and contrary and mean all at various points, sure. But Fiddleford is also one of the few people in Ford's pre-Deerington life that's never treated him poorly because of, for example, his hands, his social status, or his culture. Surely Ford can trust him now as well? ]
