Then you and I can be crazy together. Kaji is a nervous nelly and whenever we're in a situation that I know will spook him, I have a conversation with him. I don't care how crazy or weird I look having a one sided conversation since it really works with him. He's even learned what "oh look..." means. He always looks in the direction I'm pointing.
He's much better and trembles far less than he use to.
