then let's figure something fun out. in a nutshell he is a big ole artsy fartsy hipster at best. very philosophical, can come off a little too aloof, hates hates hates the hollywood game and that's a big reason why he does a lot of 'hand selecting' his shorter tour dates and got into music video directing work, and he is shit at monogamy and does not hide that. all that being said, he is a good conversationalist and gives whoever he is talking to all his attention, asks solid questions back, engages which in turn makes them feel good and special. he'll cut through the bullshit and is a passionate person overall so at least there's that going for him. he similarly tends to piss at least someone off when he does public interviews, hence him not doing them too often. they could've even met at some kind of party they eventually ditched together because it was lame, with the music video thing maybe they met that way and ultimately it was her label who pushed a bigger director but they still had a connection, even a music festival one of them was performing at?
