[Back to his brother now, Picky tenses visibly. If he doesn't mean it, if it's just a trick, he won't fall for it. If he does mean it....
He doesn't know what it means if he does mean it. He's got to think about this. He can't do this right now. So he makes a vague sound acknowledgement, and hurries off. He'll think about it. He'll think about it and see what other's think and ask Tracy...
....well. Not that last one. How's he going to handle things here, if he can't go to Tracy for this stuff? It's a painful thought, and it's putting more speed into his steps. Once he's free from the crowd, he breaks into a run, now just needing to be gone.]
