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.

...And that sure did get morbid rather quickly.
[He flashes a grin, though.]
Thanks for the suggestion! Maybe I'll propose a friendly fireball competition.

So does that mean you can do magic like regular Hawke?
no subject
[He resists the urge to roll his eyes at the "regular Hawke" remark and answers the question nicely.]
It does have a tendency to run in families, so, yeah. I can.
no subject
Huh. So everything else is the same then? Except you being all beardly and manly.

It sounds like you've known her for a while - what do you think?
no subject
[Sorry, Dick Hawke. It might just be you.]
no subject
[Sigh. SIGH. That's what he'd been afraid of.]
no subject
[Part of him actually is sorry for Dick Hawke. But not sorry enough to call him by his actual name.]
no subject
[Or, like, ten drinks. And there's plenty more where that came from! Nothing like drowning your sorrows in booze.]

Incidentally I've found that the alcohol is very helpful with said blending.
