"There... there isn't really anything interesting about me." Josh replies with fear wrapping its hands around their neck and a feeling in their stomach that makes them want to puke. They cannot, absolutely cannot talk about them-self, it's wrong, wrong, wrong. Tyler will hate them, hurt them and "no no no, please don't hurt me." never worked with him. There's nothing good about them, they're boring, awful, nothing, panicking, hyperventilating.

"That's okay, are you alright?" Tyler's worried to say the least because Josh looks like he's about to cry and his breathing is becoming irregular and he's doesn't know how to help or how to comfort him because he doesn't know what's wrong.

"Yeah... just bad memories." Josh calms them-self down, attempts to slow their breathing and is surprised to see Tyler is still waiting for their reply after, what? Three minutes maybe. Surprised may not be the correct word, it's more like shock, gobsmacked... relieved? And maybe a little odd because Tyler must be the first person who hasn't left him when he panics in such a way over nothing. They decide they like Tyler a lot... now they just have to learn to trust him.
