Paul was interesting to write. Someone who would be outside of my usual liberal circles, and sometimes even rather unlikable. It was also interesting to write it so that Bruno accepted him, but Lenny and Paul show outright animosity towards each other.
Anyhow, Paul and Bruno. Paul is one of those friends, who you got to know, and saw a good side of them, and your friendship continued on, despite further and deepening evidence that your values are very divergent.
I think a strength the both of them have is being able to mock each other’s values, and still get on.
