[He squeezes Tim's jaw right on the the fracture, and drags the little knife harder. It's going to be a hacksaw job, but that's alright; the brutality is the point. Misty so desperately wants to be taken seriously. Tik-Tok can almost understand. But he doesn't let it make him stupid.
He's never really done something quite like this before, he muses as Tim struggles. His personal murders have always been over quicker, one sharp jab with a blade or a bullet in the eye, or Keith's neck cracking at the bottom of the stairs. Even strangling the chess man was quicker - or it felt that way, anyway. Perhaps just because he was more personally invested.
He puts a little more weight on the soft back of Tim's skull, already hot and tight and swollen under the blood.]
