Austin: I hate it when people cough.
Owen: Coughing is a part of life.
Austin: I'll have you know I have Misophonia. A hatred of certain sounds.
Owen: Oh, boo hoo! You can't stop people from coughing! People cough when they are sick!
Claire: Well, he doesn't like it when people cough, okay?
Austin: Whenever I hear someone coughing, it makes me nervous, and fidgety! Also angry!
Claire: You poor guy! If I ever cough, I'll be sure to apologize, and not do it as much in your presence! *pats Austin on his back*
Austin: Thank you. Being an autistic individual with Misophonia is difficult. I can't even eat out in public, without someone coughing up a storm for several minutes at a time! It makes me want to isolate myself.
Claire: I can definitely sympathize.
Owen: Oh brother.
Claire: Be quiet!
