Creation and Usage Notes

This is the second time I used this metaphor ("tight" to mean "ready"). The first time was with Dothraki. I guess I figured if no one noticed it the first time around, no one would notice if I used it again. Plus, I think it's a really good metaphorical extension. I may have even used it a third time...
