Is it bad that I eagerly anticipate Tindryst's reaction to this ICly? Since Thistle was supposedly "dismissed" and the last he'd heard from Nik, Nik wouldn't specify whether he intended to kill him or not?

This would make the... second or third time that Nik fired or terminated or dismissed or otherwise gtfo'd Thistle only to go back to hoarding him a week later (or less).

...I just got a Katy Perry song in my head. :C
