[Ken, wearing a blue apron, is standing in what appears to be the stockroom of Nectar.]

So...

[He hesitates for a moment, gazing around himself apprehensively, clearly worried he might be overheard. When he turns back to the screen, he closes his eyes briefly and takes a deep breath, as if steeling himself for something.]

What would it take to make you decide you couldn't be yourself any more?

Thought it might help some but it didn't. It was a mistake, okay?

[have a snort of derision]

...you can't be someone if you don't have the memories to be that person.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

[That doesn't sound quite like a hypothetical answer either.]

I'm not trying to be. This wasn't about me.

[thaaat's because it isn't]

Who's it about, then?

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

[... well, Ken brought that one on himself.]

A friend of mine's been acting kinda off lately and I wondered if there was anything I could do to help. That's all.

[he's also sort of referring to himself, but won't tell you that]

What did you tell them?

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

I got no idea what to tell them. That's why I'm asking.

[notyourdouble.livejournal.com]

Just tell them what you think.

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

Could work if I get him when he's actually acting like himself. The guy he's acting like wouldn't listen.

[notyourdouble.livejournal.com]

So beat him up and make him listen.

[this is a perfectly logical solution, he thinks.]

[insorrow.livejournal.com]

But I can't do that! He's... no matter how weird he's acting he's still my friend!

I don't wanna hurt him.

[notyourdouble.livejournal.com]

If he's acting like someone else, how is he still your friend?

[what's this, circular logic?]
