His words caught in his throat, mouth hanging open, quite the opposite image of Asher's face right then.

"You're crazy! You asshole!" he exclaimed, shoving Asher again and turning away, only to whip back around and advance like he was going to give Asher a taste of his own medicine. "I'm gonna kill you!"

The only reason he stopped again was the disorientation. Being flung from fear to relief to anger in such a short space of time had left his head all over the place and his nerves all but shattered.
