Though anything out of his mouth felt uncertain and broken, as he stared across at John he was able to make sure his gaze, at least, was firm. If by firm you meant so intent he looked like he was trying to stare right through him. His hands were on his hips and though it wasn't quite visible--he'd been biting the insides of his cheeks to make sure his expression didn't falter.
He stiffened--he knew what he'd said only moments before, but it was hard to even just imagine John saying it again without a surge of anger in his stomach, and resting assured in the knowledge that John stood by -- it -- was going to be hard to bear without snapping.
But he could do it; he was prepared, after all. John had caught him by surprise, before. So he just stared, and though his brows had perhaps formed a glare, he didn't let himself break his facade.
"Well, you wouldn't be the first--so go ahead. I'm not going to attack you." He didn't like professing that. It admitted that he had done it already, and he just wanted to forget about it. "Try and provoke me all you want."
That was a challenge, and one he shouldn't have given--he didn't want to be provoked but he figured if he was going to do this, he might as well do it with confidence. Even if he didn't feel any of it. It was only with the ounce of respect he still had for John that he kept from using some pet name for the guy--that and he didn't want to encourage any provocation on John's part.
