Tyki has a certain style of his life. He choose just about everything. Even his power gave a very strong presence of his ability to Choose. It came with every detail from his clothes, his personality, his food, his activities and how circumstances turned out. This was not something he chose for once.

He's close now to the point he could reach out and touch him. Always one to get on his prey's level before dispatching him he would normally stoop down, sit with them or cheerfully have a conversation. Right now Allen was not necessarily prey even if he did want to cram this ball down his throat for throwing it at him. It wasn't his fault it hit. It didn't matter.

"You first," he says with that cheery tone. He knows that if Allen really wants to know he'll give into his game first. If he's that curious then he can toy with him a little longer. He may not be a mercenary but he would've willingly gone with it. His family basically used him as one for many unpleasant things.
