[To say that Josephine is shocked by the empathy bond is an understatement. For one thing she isn't at all expecting Murphy to take her hand-- he just doesn't seem the touchy kind of person to her though that's just her take on him (most people would probably say the same thing about her as well). But it's not just the physical touch, but the sudden emotion she feels, that, that kind of intensity that makes a person's chest tight.
She's experienced it before, would fight to regain those moments back, but the man she felt them with seems to see things completely different than her. Josie blinks back for a moment, probably passing on a lot of confusion-- more out of her lack of experience on this. She was just expecting to offer a shoulder or an arm of support, but there's so much about this place and what's going on that she's still trying to connect. This is just another instance, and it stills her completely-- not even trying to think about what Clarke would say or react to.]
