Solus might not notice Tyler immediately, but the young man certainly notices him. He's honestly only come into work to make an in-person report - which is why he's dressed far more casually than Solus has ever seen him, probably making it easier to dismiss him - but he stops when he sees Solus moving down the hall towards him.

He looks... bad. Tyler is all too familiar with caking on make-up thick enough to hide marks (thanks Lydia) so he recognises it on Solus immediately, especially when he looks more closely and notices the scuffs and swells.

Tyler's shock at seeing the man in such a state roots him to the ground until Solus swerves around him, and then Tyler starts a little and steps back. But he's curious now, despite himself.

I'm... fine, sure. He takes a step towards the wall, so they're not taking up the entire breadth of the corridor (and maybe give Solus a break, and lean on that instead of his cane. He knew about the leg, but it hadn't required assistance before...) What about you? He sure looks sincere as he says it.
