[pal knows him so well, the minute 'sports jersey' comes up viktor perks up as well.] Well you cannot ignore that. It is important the children know you support their cause.

[he offers pal a plaintive, innocent look and even manages to hold it without giving in to something like a smirk. incredible power on his part.

either way here is shoyo, and viktor takes that offered hand in a shake. he wasn't really sure what he was expecting from the children's sports coach with a chicken but honestly? this seems to track. this is a man who would coach a children's sport team and own a chicken.]

Viktor, it's good to finally meet you. Pal tells me you have a jersey for him? [what an incredible day this, truly.]
