Oh, yeah, I wasn't trying to discount his fear! I have been fucking terrified before coming out to people, or even not coming out to people but worrying if they can somehow smell it on me or something.

I think I just dislike angst secondhand. This story would have been so much better for me from Vesey's POV.
