Jerry felt relieved when the girl he had approached gave him a smile and a nod, he smiled back. Jerry felt a tad ashamed of how he had preemptively judged this girl by her appearance, especially since he didn't have the most inviting look himself. Come to think of it, he didn't really understand why he had been the slightest bit nervous in the first place, I mean to think the ever nihilistic "Gutrot" was afraid of some girl in a nuthouse.
She asked him if he was fine, and this caught him off guard "huh?" he questioned "me? fine?" he inspected himself, he was wearing a slightly torn and stained Insect Warfare shirt, not exactly the most stylish look, he checked his short scraggly beard, and then his long scraggly hair and then laughed. "Oh!" he chuckled "Yeah, I'm fine, just a little out of fashion.". He extended his right hand to the girl "Name's Jerry." he said in a warm tone, "but they call me gu..." he paused for a moment before stammering "uh...Jay! my friends call me Jay!" he figured introducing himself as Gutrot wasn't the brightest of ideas, he put on an awkward smile as he tried to correct himself.
