    Summary

    “What if we ruin our friendship?”

    “Isn’t that the point?”

    Gary blinked at him. He felt a little weak at the knees. “Like, what kind of ruin are we talking? If you could clarify, that would be so great, because—”

    “Gary.”

    “Yeah?”

    “Shut up.”

    After Quinn rejects him, she helps prod Gary in the real direction of his heart's desire.

    Summary

    “You should take a real nap every once in a while. Possibly now” he said.
    “Is this your official advice as our manager?”
    “Will you listen if I say it is?”
