[ Truth be told, he lets him go on for a while. It feels like he needs to vent, more than anything, so Anduin hums quietly at what seem like salient points, until it finally seems like he's starting to wind down. Or at least run out of air. ]
If this double of hers was meant to fool you, then you can hardly blame yourself that they managed to. You wanted it to be her, because you care so much for her, yes?
[ What he's managed to gather from all of this is that Sasha is the focal point. He's just...going to leave the remarks about Jon alone. ]
That's the problem! I love her! She doesn't want to date because she deserves to be the head of the archives! Not Jon! He doesn't know what he's doing. Have I mentioned that he can be a bit of a prick sometimes?
Or maybe he does know what he's doing. He could tell that the woman I love was replaced. She didn't even look like Sasha. Didn't sound like her or act like her! How can I say that I love her when I don't notice when she's been replaced by such an obvious fake?
It sounds like some sort of spell or compulsion, Tim.
You're clever. And you're one of the most observant people I know. If you didn't realize, it was for a good reason. Not out of carelessness or neglect. I know you better than that.
The good reason is that I can be a piece of crap. Everyone in this city thinks that I am.
Do you know that there are people who go around saying all humans need to die? Where is the outcry against them? Where are the devil dogs and ass--ass-ss-assins beating the crap out of them? No, they're fine. I'm the big scary one everyone should hate. [If he wasn't drunk Tim wouldn't really believe that, but he's not sober right now. He's having a pity party right now.] And-- and because I'm a piece of crap that is why I'm a terrible friend.
How do I stop loving her? How do I not ruin our friendship?
You're also very generous, and brave, and resourceful. You're utterly loyal to those you count as your friends. You are worth more than I believe you give yourself credit for.
Maybe. But it would be easier if I didn't love her. Then we could be friends forever and I wouldn't have to worry about messing that up.
Easier for her too. She's probably going to be so mad when I get home tonight. [Smelling like booze and cigarettes. Not that he had been the one smoking.]
Bacon is always advisable. Unless!!!! [There is a long pause as Tim suddenly forgets the joke he was about to make and has to come up with a new one.] Unless you're talking about how it needs eggs to go with that bacon.
I'll start drinking water when I forget what we were talking about. [Which he momentarily has done. Mind now more focused on bacon then his love life. The problem with drinking until you forget is forgetting what you're trying to forget.]
Why are we getting violent? I don't plan on pulling that hard on your arm to drag you into the club with me. [The joys of culture differences when one is drunk.]

That is a very good point. God, you're smart. I was so stupid at your age. I'm still pretty stupid most days. How are you so smart?

You should drink some water. If you haven't started to, already.

This already sounds like a very inadvisable idea.

Don't worry! I'm already on it!

I'm sure bacon would help with the hangover you're bound to have, but not as much as drinking water now will.
