This has taken a very, very unexpected turn. But they're going down this road, and now there's no stopping it. Anyone sane would probably back off. Would know not to push. Would take these warning signs and go.

"But if you decide that's what you need? That's another story."
He stands up. Draws himself up. To go. His turn now.
