[ Oh, Tim. It's a good thing you've blindfolded Martin, or else you might see the prickle of tears at the corners of his eyes. He has to blink rather rapidly under Tim's tie for a moment.
But after a moment, he relaxes a little with relief, too. With the cloth blocking his vision, there's no risk of his past self accidentally coming back into view. (And he doesn't have to watch Jon's gentle body language from his position on the floor, nor have to fight quite so hard against the vicious jealousy clawing at the inside of his ribcage.) ]
Th - thank you. As long as I can't see him, I ... I should be all right.
