[still, trench loved that bullshit so part of him had vaguely hoped a kiss would break the curse or whatever nonsense. ah well.
he considers for a long moment before settling on,] Stuck isn't the word I would use. You move forward and accept your life here better than most, I would say. You're realistic about matters.
Being 'stuck' on the thought of Camilla seems an unkind assessment to me. It's unreasonable to assume you wouldn't be to some extent, given your relationship with her.
no subject
It's a process.]
It's how punitive this feels that really does it for me.
[That's... dry, as dry as a text can be from a man who cannot move his face. It's dry as hell.]
Just like Remina and her miserable fruit loops, you know? To be punished for wanting you to be well, or to see Cam... I'd shrug here. Imagine it.
[god. you know! now he's annoyed!!]
I don't want to hear a damn thing ever again from any of these big angry children about the importance of "bonds" if they're going to turn me to stone over them.
no subject
also fruit loops is a great joke viktor does not have the context to appreciate, rip.]
What irritates me more is we follow all the tenants Doorway is supposed to encompass. Are we not social and connected? [are they not incredibly gay constantly?]
Well, I can't say I didn't have a feeling something like this would happen. [about cam, specifically. she was too important to pal for the trench to leave alone for long.] So, shall we try to untangle it now or shall I call Jason to help us move you home?
no subject
[Ha ha, as if this is his own fault and not the Trench's, but still. He can embarrass himself in front of Jason another day, ideally... His miracle texting goes silent after that, while he focuses extremely intently on being Social and Connected and Not Miserably Alone, because all of those things are true! He shouldn't be penalized this severely for one woman (although later he will admit that of course the depths of Camilla's absence warrant this much upset, never mind that now).
He is silent. Literally, a statue.
And then one of his arms seems quite literally to crack at the shoulder, swinging at his side with wild abandon like a mannequin who has had enough.]
Is it moving? I can't tell. If it doesn't stop, grab it for me.
[It will stop eventually, through inertia, so that's fun. But that's all it seems he can force through pure aggressive thought, so alright, it's time to unpack.]
Well, as you know: it's been a year. Since Camilla.
no subject
the silence is a bit concerning, more so because doing so as a statue really gives the impression there's an inanimate object in front of him and not his husband. of course that concern is cut off when pal is suddenly moving, flailing almost.]
It is, in fact you might nearly elbow me again. [said with a happiness most wouldn't pair with that statement. but this is good, this promises there's a solution and not the trench making them wait some nonsense out like it sometimes does.
the movement is a little unsettling regardless, and his fingers go over his shoulder as if expecting to find fractures or cracks.]
Yes. I assume you've never been more than a few days without her before any of this.
