You take a deep breath.
KLAIR
W-Well, um...
KLAIR
You're, like... You...
KLAIR
It...
ISSAC
Your name's Jason Marsh.
Issac's voice startles you.
ISSAC
When you were in, like, second grade, my boyfriend here and I egged some dude's house while you watched. You totally wanted to join in, but you couldn't throw them hard enough to hit anything but grass.
...?
...
BONNIE
Your birthday's April 16th. You're a Taurus! You told me that one time when you were twelve, since you wanted to be an astronomer, and you got that mixed up with astrology for a while.
Bonnie speaks up too. Her voice is soft, but she's trying to keep it bright.
BONNIE
You asked me to show you how to make latkes for someone in your Scouts troop, once. But you added way too much onion on accident, and they came out awful.
...?

LEON
...You were one of the first people who knew I was trans. Course you were, you were my best friend's little brother. You were just a kid, real little, and you kept asking me all kinds of questions about it.
Leon's all shaky. He can't look at Jason. Nor can you.
LEON
You had a funny lisp for the longest time. Your favorite animal was bears, and you asked me how to say bear in Diné, and you couldn't say it right. You just went around, saying 'thath'.
...?

KLAIR
You're just about to start high school. But... you took a shortcut through the woods after class one day, and you... you wound up here.
Issac keeps a hand on your shoulder.
KLAIR
An-And shit, I came home to help look for you, and I guess I fucking found you, right?
...?
...Klair?
KLAIR
Who else, Jason?
...?
...
He suddenly hurries towards you. There's no time to brace yourself.
