Cougar reaches down to press the back of his hand to Tim's forehead when he mentions the fireflies again, the memory clicking about how they caused fever in a person. It doesn't seem too bad and Tim seems to be becoming more lucid, so Cougar eases a little bit of the pressure off of him, just enough so that it's more of a friendly sitting, not so much trapped.

Of course, if Jake walks by right now, he's going to get a very wrong idea. Sighing, Cougar extends a hand out. "If I help you inside, are you going to attack me again?" he asks, as if he can somehow trust whatever Tim says. Still, he's decided that the next attack, Tim is going unconscious, so at least he has a plan.
