[Trevor has to stop and think; was what a pun? The realization strikes him a beat or two later than it should, and he smirks with a slow shake of his head.]

Dork.

[It's not an insult if it's the truth. Adrian and Sypha are total nerds; Trevor's told them as much, and their acknowledgement makes it all the more entertaining. But it's endearing. Everything they do is adorable. The more Trevor allows himself to acknowledge that truth, the freer -- and more foolish -- he feels.

They rarely poke fun at his more vulnerable moments. Sypha recognizes them for what they are, and throws the occasional good-natured jibe. Adrian treats them with respect, almost handles them with kid gloves. But neither of them has ever made Trevor regret opening up to them or feeling anything. That's crucial, and it's far more than Trevor's ever gotten from his family.

Adrian and Sypha are starting to feel safe.

You certainly know your way around a man's wrist. It's practically indecent.
