[ Bigby really didn't expect the touch. He doesn't ever expect touch that isn't violence, really - and even more so at a moment like this. A moment where he feels a little more vulnerable than the usual. It's a good thing it's only brief, since he would know even less what to do with anything beyond that, but..
.. just the touch itself is already a little strange. He hardly seems to react to it, but Bigby's mind is very much busy with trying to register and process it.
It's another sign, right? Whatever the hell Konstantin is, whatever is going on with him that clearly is not just a medical condition - it doesn't make him a bad person if he's going out of his way to comfort people who are having a rough time.
It makes the answer to this question exceptionally easy. ]
Isn't it then only more important for people to know? [ Granted, this isn't new rhetoric to Bigby. He told Louis the same thing, even if he didn't seem to agree with Bigby on his one.
That didn't change Bigby's own mind though. This still feels like the most logical thing to him. It's what he'd do too if his own otherworldliness was actually dangerous in any way. ]
That way we can jointly figure out what to do about it, rather than anyone having to deal with it by themselves. It's much more likely that we can find a solution where no one has to get hurt if we do it collectively, rather than wait for some bomb to go off and catch us all by surprise.
[ It's definitely aimed at Konstantin. Not too obviously so, you could easily take it as just him being conversational in return, but.. Bigby definitely means for it to get through to the other.
Maybe that's why his tone seems to strengthen itself a little again with honesty. ]
There's a young girl here in town who's a vampire. I let her drink some of my blood. [ Maybe not the most normal thing ever to say, but Bigby makes it sound so normal. Like he thinks it's normal, somehow. ] That's how we solve shit.
