❛Ow! Damn it all!❜
He drops the spanner to the floor, looking at the burn across his hand. What a way to start his already awful morning.

❛Ow! Damn it all!❜
He drops the spanner to the floor, looking at the burn across his hand. What a way to start his already awful morning.
❛It's quiet, today. Perhaps I can get something done, for once.❜
It's wishful thinking, really, considering there was bound to be an incident the second he thought he had a minute to himself.
From the Blood and Bruises Injury Starter:
"It looks worse than it is, I'm sure it'll be gone in a couple of days."
Jinx says this with confidence, but considering she's been absent for a few days and now Viktor is holding bandages against the gash in her shoulder, he's not exactly convinced by her flippant tone.
❛Hm. Now, you know I doubt that, don't you?❜
He pulled tight on the end of the bandage between his fingers, fumbling for a pin with his other hand. Jinx always managed to get herself into situations, whether they were wise or not. Her judgement was always on whether something looked fun, not on how dangerous it might be.
He sighed, pushed his glasses up his nose and fixed the bandage with the safety pin, his eyes scrutinising his handiwork. He nodded. That'd hold for now.
💤 (also for the ask meme)
for ask prompt 💤 how do they sleep ?
Viktor is usually quite restless when he sleeps, unless he goes to bed very drunk or completely exhausted, which he'll sometimes do on purpose.
He tosses and turns, but often keeps his body closed off on the chance of an intruder. There've been a couple of break-ins at his shop, which is literally just an extension of his home. His bedroom is upstairs.
But if he's completely drained, he'll sleep sprawled out. In the middle of the night, he'll normally kick off his clothes (if he's not sleeping nude already).
🕊️ (For the ask meme )
Ask meme: 🕊️ When did they feel the safest?
Given the Undercity’s environment, Viktor’s only truly felt safe under a handful of circumstances. Safety was more in numbers (or in people) rather than an actual place: with his parents as a child, or with his lover as a young adult.
Some nights he’ll visit Silco. As always, he goes into his office under the guise of being a bother. But he'll find himself snoozing on the chaise lounge when he’s tired or not feeling well. Silco’s office is quite literally the safest place to be in all of Zaun, but there might be another type of safety Viktor feels when he's there. Maybe one that he's not entirely aware of.
Any interesting clients when you’ve worked at babettes??
I don't have an established schedule at Babette's, but there is one returning client who always manages to ask for my time. He either frequents the place quite often, or has some bizarre luck.
"squirm" was for the ask meme, but since you mention it, I think a certain chembaron could make you squirm ;-)
SQUIRM - is your muse interested in going to dates? what was their worst one?
I don't normally go one dates, they are typically tiring. Once, someone offered me bouquet of flowers unprompted; flora that certainly couldn't grow in Zaun. We'd only met once before, during a brief evening encounter. The poor man may have travelled outside of the borders to procure it. It was entirely strange.
Viktor clicked his tongue.
He could have used that coin to buy me a good drink, it was a shame. As for the certain Chembaron you may be referring to. Perhaps.
He smirked.
But that's an answer I only give behind closed doors.
You're gonna make a homophobe outta me if I keep hearing shit about you and the boss.
....buuuut then again it wouldn't be much better if you were a girl, would it? Hmm.
Well either way - maybe go for someone who's less than like. 20 years older than you.
-J
Viktor grins with a cold, amused laugh.
Oh, I wonder who this could be. I apologize, J, but I like my men like I like my wine. Rich, complex, and aged to perfection 🍷
And who knows, if I were a woman I’d likely go for his subordinate. She looks like she could throw me around.
