Josh gives a laugh that holds no humor. Only bitterness and understanding.

"I know disappointments. You can't change who you are, so your entire existence is a disappointment. And if anything ever happened to your sibling, they'd all wonder, why couldn't it have been you?" There are many reasons Joshua never went back home to his own world after surviving the caves and that is chief among them.

Knowing he was a burden and a disappointment more than he'd ever be a son.

"I'm good at scaring people. I'm good at making frightening things seem believable. I know fear, so I can...have...manipulated it in other people. I thought. Turning it into entertainment would be doing that. Making a good thing. But I just ended up helping more people get hurt."
