[Ankari shares in that laugh softly, a bit bashful that he did something like that. He is also holding Tyler firmly, rubbing his own thumbs softly into each of Tyler's biceps on each side. He's hoping it is a comforting tough and not something he'd feel trapped by. If Tyler really tried to flinch back with any real might, Ankari isn't strong enough, nor would he want to hold the man against his wishes, but he's glad he didn't rush out on his elf partner for the night...]

You're very resilient, lad... glad you did not bolt from me. I couldn't resist speaking the truth of the moment, [which for Ankari is rather compulsive so he's realizing he needs to keep that under control. Good to know... bad he had to find out here and frighten his lovely bedmate]

I shall better mind my tongue.
