[ A small amount of smugness at having irritated Kon for something other than being four and hard-nosed, but Tim’s internally smothering it.
It’s not funny, and it keeps getting worse. Tim is willing to consider the benefits of Kon using strange powers, but the second time Tim has a front row seat. He takes it all in: the dark magic, the fading glow around the Wheeler, the look on Kon's face, and – worst of all – the overall impression of the life draining out of someone. It’s a different format, but he’s seen enough people in danger of bleeding out to recognize it.
The smugness is long gone when he clamps a hand on Kon's arm, indicating the Wheeler on the ground with his bo. Now, he's smothering his concern. ]
