Murphy also is super awkward and is one of those people who tries to joke about trauma but instead she gets side eyes and then she just nervously gets quiet. One thing about Murphy is she tries to be social and extroverted but then the moment she feels like something she did something to ruin the mood, she gets quiet and shrinks back. Jack tries to laugh at her jokes and stuff but even then, there are some times where he's so shocked and baffled he can't laugh. Like, the RFG are having one of their big parties and the girls are gossiping about their exes and stuff and the guys join in.
Murphy: "Hahaha! Yeah, I totally get that. My ex boyfriend wasn't too bad, he mostly just ignored me. You know, unless he was drunk."
and everyone kinda stops laughing and looks at her and Jack just smiles at her but she can tell he's embarrassed so she looks down at the ground and is all: "I-I'm sorry...Does anyone need punch refills?"
Then Wildcard jumps in with an actual joke and everyone starts laughing and then he goes to help her and he's all: "Hey, you're fine! Everyone has bad jokes!"
Murphy: "Thanks Dom, but I think my jokes are always gonna be bad..."
and then Jack just asks if she's okay because he honestly doesn't know when she's joking or if she's actually talking about her trauma and she just is all: "No, no- I was just trying to join in...I'm okay, I promise!"
"Alright, just...try not to joke about things like that. It makes a lot of people uncomfortable and I get...worried when ya say stuff like that."
"You shouldn't, after all, you killed him."
and then he laughs and she brightens up and he's all: "See? You can make people laugh!"
But yeah, she just tries her best but she has so much bad things happen to her that its hard for her to read social cues because she tries to make light of everything.
