Although I feel empathy for the character and am happy with the other toon's reaction, as someone with severe anxiety, being overwhelmed by someone's monologue is just something I'll try to preserve myself from. By explaining softly and gently that it tends to make me very uncomfortable. Let's have a bit of silence together sometimes. Maybe we could alternate to fit both our needs.
