[the way viktor decides to deal with this is, shockingly, by kissing him. he really should get up and lock the door, on the off chance anyone comes around to his study. it's technically supposed to be an area open to all, a general research place for corruption, etc.]

Save it for the books. [as though pal has any shortage of romantic gestures in him, viktor is finding. unbelievable.]

Hm... I'm not sure but I would not be surprised. I think it comes with the fine line between justice and revenge, and how revenge often comes from hurt and spite. [a shrug, one shoulders, hand still at his hair.] Perhaps it is the moon itself. It does feel odd this month.

[huh, the question has him tilt his head, twirling pal's short hair as much as it will go idly.] I do not. Given the raspberry incident I have a good idea of what it feels like too.

I wonder if it builds up, or is triggered. Either way at least we do not seem to be effected. [given if pal were he'd expect a lot more wrath right now, all things considered.]
