“If it wasn’t crossfire, then what was it?” he asks, a touch on the snappish side, before abruptly pulling it back. It’s not - snapping at TJ will not help anything.

It’s best to avoid it, and if you can’t avoid it and you can’t mitigate it, you make yourself small and less of a target.

If TJ wants to talk about it, then Tim wishes he’d stop circling it and land already. “If you want to tell me I screwed up, then just tell me already.”
