Memoir One ✓ video
[The video opens on the face of a handsome man in possession of a truly magnificent beard. He hesitates for a brief second until he's sure the device is working, then flashes a charming grin.]
[The camera shifts to as the man looks at a thin woman with dark hair and light eyes, playing idly with her TAB. This is Marian Hawke as many know her. Unlike the man who’s grinning, she mostly looks like she’s bewildered at how she got into this situation and how best to get out of it. Despite the different expressions, however, the resemblance between them is distinct.]
[Is the lady Hawke’s vote.]
[Here he pauses again to flash another charming grin at the TAB, and also wink conspiratorially.]
[She just… shakes her head and glances at the sky, wondering what she did to deserve this.]
This is a really strange question, but I'm going to ask it anyway:
Does anyone have any ideas about the best way to befriend oneself? Multiple attempts at striking up a friendly conversation have ended in vomit and tears, so I'm kind of at a loss.

I warned you not to try and pick me up after I’d been drinking. I hope when you go to the bar you don’t literally pick anyone up.
...And there were no tears.

Normally I'd take them out for a few drinks and then maybe stumble over to a brothel, but that seems a little...eh, I dunno, is "incestuous" the right word, here? Or would "masturbatory" be more appropriate?
“Masturbatory”, definitely.
[Is the lady Hawke’s vote.]
Let’s not disrespect biology by going with "incestuous". Though you can buy me another drink all the same. I never turn down a gift.
Hmm...I was leaning that way too, honestly. Still, awkward.
[Here he pauses again to flash another charming grin at the TAB, and also wink conspiratorially.]
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Oh, I can’t wait to see what the people come up with. Hopefully it involves more drinking.

[beat;]
Then it turned out she was my clone, raised to hate, kill, and replace me. Didn't take it so hard, after that.
[There's a moment of pause as she frowns, bemused in reflection, before her expression lightens.] Anyway. How about drinks, and truth or dare? The only stipulation being that none of the dares can involve touching each other.

That sounds like quite the story.
Come on down, I'll even stand your first round.
[Says the man who's painfully aware that his pocketbook is being drunk dry by his current companion. Still, can't hurt to be friendly, right? Right!]

[He leans in to deliver this next bit of information in a stage whisper:]
I think she's just using me for my money.
no subject
Maybe you should dare her to drink a glass of water. She'd go down in one.

[And then he responds to that suggestion with a look of horror.]
I could never dare someone to do something I wouldn't do, myself!

[He frowns down into his glass before returning his gaze to the TAB.]
Well, you're the sober one. I'm assuming. I'll take your word for it.

[She snorts. If only.]
We're already drinking, at least.
no subject
It'll be fun. You can dare him to shave, and he can dare you to puke in someone else's shoes.
