[Palamedes makes a vague noise of agreement, like yes, he is distracting Viktor with property damage, because a) he's always a little ornery and wants to break something, and b) he's always a little ready to nudge Viktor into doing mundane activities that he thinks are super hot. That's just the way of things, is it not... That's just how these things Are...

But into the church they go, with Palamedes trailing diligently behind. He's functionally immortal but easy to break; the worst kind of non-robot boyfriend, when it comes to surprise monster fights.

Luckily, they're spared.]

A funny walnut, [RIP to other-Pal, who sucks and is a nerd,] because he is one. And what else would those two be trying to do but uncover all the secrets of the world while making googoo eyes at each other over their lab table?

[He says, as if the two of them here right now don't do that exact same thing, just with less regard for personal health and much weirder vibes. Shocking: he is still a hypocrite. The whispery voices don't even have to remind him, although they do. Palamedes taps on an offering at one of the shrines and then tips it over. Ha.]
