Question for those of you who are already Tethered, or I guess anyone who knows...

I've been told that people who are Tethered to one another have access to each other's emotions. How specific is that access? Is it just the feeling or the cause of the feeling, too?

For instance, is it just "Harold is happy right now" or is it fully "Harold is happy right now because he noticed that I mended that rip in his jacket, and because I smiled at him when we said goodnight last night, and also because he's secretly in love with me."?

All Harolds in this example are purely hypothetical of course.

But most of it's the fact that it's a big choice to make, with potential serious repercussions when we find a way to get out of here, when we don't have solid proof that it's actually necessary for us.
