we'll make it happen, we'll turn it around

[ Well, that... certainly was a thing that happened. Viktor wishes he could unsee what he witnessed in the library, but it seems like it has etched into his memory forever. Thinking about it makes him sick to his stomach, and eventually he decides that he needs something to keep his mind off it, at least for a little while.

So around noon, a note goes up on the fridge: ]


If you need a distraction after what happened today, come to the dining room at 6 pm.
There will be food and we'll be playing truth or dare!
♥ Viktor Nikiforov ♥


[ There's also a cute doodle of himself underneath his signature. Later in the day, he writes copies of said note and slides them under everyone's doors. ]

[ Those who come to the dining room at will find that Viktor has made plenty of borscht, pancakes and open-faced sandwiches for them. He isn't the best chef ever, but it tastes pretty good and will fill you up! There's also juice, water, and a few bottles of alcohol for those who are old enough to drink; try to be responsible, okay.

And for the truth and dare, he's prepared shots of hot sauce as punishment for those who refuse a dare. ]

[That gets a bigger smile.]

Well, we met in medical school. I was finishing my last year, he was starting his first. We dated for a few months, but med school is busy and stressful. We decided we would be better off friends, rather than trying to juggle dating when we were working so hard. We lost touch when I took a position in Zurich and he took a summer fellowship in New York. The last I heard, he had settled down there and has a very nice family.

[ Oh no, that actually sounds really sweet... ]

I'm happy for him. Got any new beaus, or are you more focused on your work?
modernmedicine: (softer smiles)

I am, too.

[She chuckles a bit.]

These days, I think I'm almost married to my work. There's one person, but I'm not sure how she feels about it.

[ That busy, huh? ...Not surprising, she's a doctor. Long hours, from what she remembers as a general thing. ]

There's no harm in trying. As long as you're not... well, I guess you could be like Viktor about it, unless she's the type that gets overwhelmed easily.
modernmedicine: (all smiles)

[She laughs.]

Why, what happened with Viktor?

I don't think she's the type that gets overwhelmed easily. I do think that she's the kind who wouldn't initially recognize a romantic gesture, though.

He went full-force on someone who's shyer when he's sober than when he's drunk. [ so you can understand how that went, naturally. ] Of course, it seems like things worked out... hopefully? They kissed recently, going by his last dream, though they haven't talked about it yet.

And if she's that kind, then being a little forward and obvious wouldn't be a bad idea.
modernmedicine: (happier days)

Oh, no. That's really adorable, in a way. I hope things do work out; he deserves so much better than being here.

[That gets a chuckle.]

Maybe. I'd have to catch her at the right time, but that's how it always works.
