   Summary

   Edwin Paine is a lot of things, but above all, he’s trying to be a Good Friend. Even if that means watching his best friend that he’s in love with romance someone else. Still, that doesn’t mean he literally wants to watch them together. If only there was someone to distract him during all these hours of new-found loneliness?
