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.]

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.

[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.]

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.

[She just… shakes her head and glances at the sky, wondering what she did to deserve this.]

Remind me to be doing something else when you hold it.

So does that mean you can do magic like regular Hawke?

[What he doesn't want is to be collateral damage.]

Huh. So everything else is the same then? Except you being all beardly and manly.

Ehhh. She can get grumpy sometimes, but it's not her fault state.

[Sorry, Dick Hawke. It might just be you.]

Probably. Sorry, pal.

[Part of him actually is sorry for Dick Hawke. But not sorry enough to call him by his actual name.]

Hey, it's progress that you can at least drink with her. And you didn't run away after she puked on you! shows fortitude.

That's a weird way of looking at it, but whatever works for you.

Isn't it always? Just don't try to bond with her by joining her in shoe-puking.
