What a fascinating chapter. :) I like how almost every significant conflict relates to the past, showing how far Brian and Nick have drifted apart and how they both seem to yearn for the way they used to be. I also think they are both thinking of the same moment that undermined their friendship, and yet believe that the other thinks that moment insignificant. I wonder what it will take for them to communicate, other than antagonistically. But the room sharing does seem to be having the intended effect of preventing each from ignoring the other, and maybe some measure of empathy will return as a result...
Great take on the vocal therapy, btw. I'd love to know if it's accurate or just a best guess. ;) Looking forward to reading more soon!

Author's Response: Mostly the vocal therapy I wrote was based on the brief description given in the movie and a Google search I did on the condition and what exercises people can do to help restore control of the muscles. I'm not sure how accurate it is to the type that Brian has in real life or anything like that though, it's still mostly a best guess, but at least based on somewhat brief research. ...I think you'll be entertained by the How and the Why of the communication to come. ;)
