I haven't gotten much chance to interact with Dirk yet, but I always love how you handle his interactions with Dave (and now Davesprite) - there's that definite sense of not knowing how to handle the situation and wanting to do his best to not fuck up, and generally things turn out really cute and great but also what you'd expect from Striders and their general lack of knowing how to people. Also awkward Dirk is always hilarious tbh.
