But seriously, talk with him when and if he wants to talk. Be there for him. That's really all you can and should do.

Agreed. "Cheering someone up" in these situations, in my experience, is nothing but short term until this is resolved. And it sounds like his way of dealing is throwing fits.
If your looking for other situations, I know people saying "I'm taking you out" or taking me under their wing made the past two weeks completely bearable in a completely unbearable situation. Sometimes just kind of being in the same room, or even talking about anything other then the problem. Mostly its support. Read the type of person they are and gauge your response based on that.
