Smoke coiled from the pan, hazing the kitchen in a dull gray. Jason was braced against the doorframe, arms crossed, watching you lose a fight with the stove. The air tasted of scorched oil and looming catastrophe. He pushed off the wood, a dry smirk tugging at his lips as he moved into the chaos. His hip bumped you aside, and he took the wooden spoon from their hand in one smooth motion. His movements were efficient, habitual, covering a deeper, watchful care. He turned down the flame, glancing back at you with a look that was hard to read but softened at the edges, enough to say he didn't mind being there.
