By the time they get back, Jon has at least forced himself to sit again. Jean-Claude may be gratified to see that Jon doesn't seem to notice Jason's looks, either. Nor does he notice the innuendo. The look he gives Jason is abstracted, comparing the savor of Jason's history to Jean-Claude's.
It's rather like comparing a carrot to a five course meal.
Jon clears his throat lightly. "Right... the, the compulsion itself is not unpleasant. It should simply help you, er, articulate." He takes a deep breath, and turns the recorder on. "Please state your name for the record..." and once that's done, Jon pitches his voice, so soft it's merely a murmur.
"Tell me."
Jason will feel the compulsion as a warm tingle down his spine, and the sudden removal of all his reservations. It seems like a lovely idea to tell Jon all about this incident, like it will make him feel better.
Jon is much more sedate throughout this statement. Unmoving, unblinking while Jason speaks. And the statement itself will be comprehensive, detailed, and well-ordered, regardless of Jason's natural story-telling abilities, regardless if there was anything he wanted to hold back.
And when it's over... The reason the catharsis of making a statement varies is for the simple, mundane reason that people are different. Whether Jason truly will feel unburdened after it all is purely based on his own disposition.
