    Tim gets hit with Ivy’s newest strain of cuddle pollen and leaves to tough it out on his own. It’s a lot worse than he thought it’d be, and he only realizes this once his hands have started to frost over and he can barely move.

    Summary

    Studies have shown that touch is key to a healthy childhood. It stimulates the pathways for oxytocin, serotonin and dopamine, all important for the ability to build healthy relationships. Touch is important because it can counteract certain stress hormones like cortisol, strengthening the body and especially the immune system. (Tim was a sickly child, is a sickly adult). Touch deprivation in early childhood can lead to lower levels of growth hormones effectively stunting the child. (Janet and Jack Drake had been tall people, Tim is the smallest out of all his siblings)

     

    Tim's parents were not affectionate people and by the time Tim had come into contact with the bats, he’d been well accustomed to his touch starvation, so much so that it had turned into somewhat of a touch aversion. (It was a real kindergarten-mentality; You don’t want to give me something? Well, I didn’t want it anyway)

    Too bad Ivy reminds him of what he's missing out on.
