[ hey at least he's notably less grouchy than he was at the start of this. though yes there is a lot of natural homegrown bad attitude there that even when the worst of the depression wanes he is probably going to always have.
and yeah it's probably fine sometimes you just have your own blood in a necklace. ]
I can make friends! That's an act I'm capable of doing. I've made plenty of friends.
[ he has a lot of friend-in-laws where they worry about his mental health a lot but probably wouldn't drive him to the airport because when he has control of the aux its really terrible ]
[ he should have listed her first but he assumed that it was implied that is his horrible stinky little best friend when throné admitted it first and therefore lost the game. but women can do anything. even be your friend. ]
I can make friends if I need to, arsehole, it just doesn't come as naturally to myself as it does to you.
[ viktor is very charming!!!! he must know this. ]
[Tattles on Lucien that he did not list Throné at all (no). It's his turn to make a bit of a face.]
I'm not so sure about that. I don't think I've ever really had a friend outside of Jayce, and he was only my friend when I was in the Academy when I was about six years younger.
[So there. They are in the not easy to make friends category. THIS DOESN'T COUNT. HE WAS FORCED SO MANY TIMES TO DO THINGS HE NEVER WOULD HAVE DONE!]
[ cupping his cheek for a moment before he moves to flip them (gently!!!!!!!!) straddling him so he can lean down close, grinning at him with the most punchable face he's able to make. ]
What about me? I must be worth a little bit of death and dismemberment.
[He lets out a surprised little yelp when he suddenly goes twisting over.
He wishes the simple act of Lucien leaning in on him with mischief wouldn't make his face hot, nevermind the idea Lucien is completely naked. It's really the feralness that does it, why.]
Um... On the contrary, I think... you're more than worth coming back from that for.
[ gross don't just agree like a bit sap. he doesn't know what he expected the answer to be but he played himself and got sincere and that makes him flush the tiniest bit. ]
Well. Good?
[ cool answer, guy. whatever, covering it by leaning in to kiss him instead, supporting himself on an elbow over him. ]

His expression is the playful "mmmmmmhm" you give to someone you're skeptical of believing, but in a (fond) way.]
Oh, really? Who, do I know them? Name me some of your friends.
no subject
You.

A pause.
He straightens his head and glances up.]
...You're serious? Just me?

Amalthea. Rosamund. Temenos. Shoma. Happy?

Mm.
[He nods, a little smile coming to his mouth.]
It paints a picture.

reaching over to brush hair out of viktor's face, poking him on the mole.]
Then this place has maybe been good for you, apart from all of the trauma and being killed and such.
no subject
He tips his head toward the hand, squinting the eye on that side.]
I didn't realize in order to get a few friends, I had to go through so much pain and suffering. Wow. I'm so thrilled for the experience.
[He's kidding.]

He lifts his hands to the space where Lucien's neck meets the shoulder, using the leverage to trap Lucien there while he kisses back.
Swapping the awful tobacco kiss.]
