_{[The addendum isn't necessary. Dirk's naive in regards to relationships between adults. Of course, this is only aided by the fact that he hasn't liked anyone in a manner of more than friends only helps. So when Bro makes his accidental confession, Dirk takes it at face value.]}

Ohh, okay. In that case, I hope you become good friends, because I like you both. But don't become best friends because then I think it might hurt Cal's feelings. Second and third place best friends would hurt Dave's feelings, then mine. So he'll have to be fourth place.
