SION DOESN'T HAVE ANYBODY ELSE HE HAS NAOTO AND KAZUKI AND KAZUKI UPSETS HIM CONSTANTLY!!!!
Basically Naoto didn't even register his feelings as protective, just fluffy dere, until he saw Sion very obviously change from happy and relaxed to depressed and listless, and he just flipped all his shit completely. HE LOVES... WHEN SION IS HAPPY and when he can smile because he knows that the lineface is the equivalent of Naoto's smiling, more or less, and when the lineface breaks there's no reason for that smile not to be genuine. And it makes him happy when Sion is happy!
When someone becomes a threat to that happiness it's extremely upsetting. His view on Sion is that Sion is a genuinely nice and good person who does not deserve all the shit he's been getting just because he's stoic. HE PROBABLY TOOK THAT ONE MEMORY OF SION'S OFFSCREEN, after the Lloyd thread, since he'd been avoiding it in an attempt to sort of distance himself and he didn't want to do that anymore...
But in that memory basically Sion had something nice and it was (apparently) totally destroyed, he was an adorable fluffy child and something happened to make his coping mechanism be 'ice princess' and that's terrible!? THAT'S WORSE THAN MY STEPFORDING BECAUSE AT LEAST SMILING MAKES YOU FRIENDS?!
Basically he loves Sion a whole lot and seeing Sion go from happy to sad is so intensely distressing that dealing with it is one hell of an adventure
