[The video opens on James, flopped on his bed and looking slightly frazzled. There are scribbled-upon sheets of paper surrounding him, and the itching has subsided somewhat, though he's still decked out in calamine lotion at various points.]
Er. This is a bit weird to ask, I guess, but I can't think of anything else to do that I haven't already

02. Do something nice for her and don't expect anything in return. Don't tell her that you don't. Don't accept anything in return, either.
03. Hold open doors, pull out chairs. If she's pissy about it, just smile. Keep doing it.
04. Ask her what specifically she dislikes about you. If you already know, knock it off, especially if it's because you're a jerk.
05. That "friendzone" thing is a myth. You can be a friend and become a boyfriend (try it). If a guy ever is stuck in the "friendzone" they usually didn't have a chance to begin with.
06. That being said, ask her if she'd like to do something. You're stuck in a different world now, use the pretense of being homesick or searching for familiarity, if you must. Don't make it be a "date" thing. Ask her if she'd like to come and watch a movie -- with other people present. Make sure the other people aren't dicks that will spoil it. An outing is also acceptable. Maybe ask her if she'd like to go shopping for Christmas gifts with you?
07. Be patient. Do not expect immediate results. If you really like her -- and you do seem to -- keep up with not being a jerk, being kind, etc.
Good luck. :)

And yes, er. I do. If it's not obvious.

It's pretty obvious. Ah, young love.

Hnf. At least it turns out reasonably alright in the end, or so I've heard.

There's always an in between. Think about now, not the end.

Yeah. I know, it's this bit that's hard.

Hate to be the one to break it to you, but when the future is now, it'll probably be just as hard, too. Don't assume it gets any easier. That's the trick to it.
