You haven't pissed yourself yet. That's pretty impressive. [ It's true, and also an attempt to at least lighten the situation with a fraction. ]
Listen — I know you probably don't want to think about this, but me and Tyki go way back. I probably know him better than anyone here that doesn't come from his world, Kitty included and she used to shag him. I know what makes him tick, because that sort of stuff used to make me tick.
[ Still does, in unguarded moments of nostalgia, but these days he'd never act on it. ]
If I was in his situation right now, I'd bolster and threaten to keep people away until I got my feet under me because I'd know there was nothing to back that up with.
