to be fair, that awkward moment is hardly a career move to be serious about on ziggy's part so he's not completely pretentious about everything he does, but at the time it was more like yes work i'll do anything. which is probably a decent foundation for their friendship, because he wouldn't have been taking things too seriously or trying too hard or focusing on the minute details of everything, so they could just genuinely have gotten along - and still get along when they're in crazy promotion timezones and looking for someone to text.
