Evan Hansen had always had such a constant stutter and such a bad stammer that he hated it. He hated the slight lisp, the mispronounciations, the speech therapy he went into, so one day, he just stopped. He stopped talking. He learned simple sign language phrases to help him, and what he couldn't sign, he wrote down. But, nobody really tried to talk to him anyway, so he thought it didn't matter. Connor Murphy seemed to be one of the only people who didn't mind Evan not talking. Actually, he seemed to be the only one who was accepting of Evan. Nobody needed to talk to communicate, and he kept that in mind as he talked to Evan, and as Evan signed or wrote back to him. November '18 rated: #2 in #treebros

A failed suicide attempt, disguised as an overdose acts as the unlikely event of bringing the two together.
