Now to take his number out of my phone so I can't drunk text him and start this thing all over again, which is what happened last time.
Did you do it yet?

Seska - lots of good suggestions already. I second the one about putting him in one room on his own until he begins to feel more confident.
Absolutely do not let this cat outside until he knows this is home. It takes at least 10 days, if not longer, to recalibrate what I suspect is a sense of the earths electromagnetic fields. Let him loose before the recalibration process is complete, his navigation system will take him back to his previous home. Let him loose before he wants this to be his home - same thing - in fact I would not be surprised but what part of the recalibration process involves the choice to make the new place home.
One further tip for helping cats get used to each other, is at meal time put their dishes on either side of the door between Merlin's space and your established cats (forgive me, I can't remember their names). That way they begin to associate the presence of the other cat(s) with something nice. Of course, that does not work if they don't have set meal times.
Done! And R is my witness. I actually had a little knot in my stomach, wasn't expecting that.
Also, Nora, have I mentioned lately that I love you? Totally laughed out loud.
Well, it's his loss, smonster! Good riddance!
WTF. I feel like I want to murder everyone. like, everyone
I also feel like I want to cry.
And it's been a good day. WTF, 42???
I feel seriously fucking insane right now.
Well, this is the place to bring it, Sean.
Do you need anything?
Sean, what happened other than having a bit too much to drink today? You were fine an hour ago...?
Goddammit, I missed a perfectly good chance to write into Yo, Should I Dump This Asshole? Oh well. Y'all are my YSIDTA.
Sean!!! What is going on, darling? Do you know what's triggered this? (Um, and I actually kind of have to go to bed soon, so if I don't answer I'm not ignoring you. If it's an emergency, you can call me)
I don't know. I was having a really great day, and suddenly I'm having a spectacularly shitty day out of nowhere. I'm kind of mystified,
