Oh dear! Well I'm afraid he's oblivious, and he does think of him as... not a kid precisely, because he has teenagers working for him and he recognizes Metody is much more mature than that. A nice young man, perhaps. Much too nice to really be one of his agents, but he appreciates having him as an ally and a medical go-to. He appreciates the overtures of friendship, for that matter, he's just not terribly good at expressing that.
He is a bit! Certainly he doesn't come off that way in the pulps, because you see him in action, but when you take those same qualities and transfer them to everyday life it becomes more obvious that he's not really equipped for normality.
