August Aiden is a trans masculine voice actor. In addition to Dontnod's close work with GLAAD, in order to ensure an authentic and sensitive portrayal of the trans experience, August also made significant contributions to Tell Me Why's dialogue. During recording sessions, August provided edits to the script if he felt a certain line or moment did not do justice to Tyler's story, making him an invaluable part of the creative process. August's personal experiences also inspired key moments and lines of dialogue.
There is an easter egg - the writers must've watched the TV show "Schitt's Creek", because that one e-mail Tessa received says something about "performing Danny Boy on Carl's funeral" and that's exactly what Moira Rose (Catherine O'Hara) does in season 1 of SC.
