"Cool." Victor looked at Lucius for a few, his chest feeling a little tight. He really did make the world brighter with his smile, he wondered if he knew. He leaned in to kiss his cheek once more and then he took his hand in his, threading their fingers together as he walked out the room and down a hallway.

"It's all organized. I think by topic and then by author? Something like that. You can probably figure it out faster than I can." He didn't care that much. He just cared that Lucius cared.

Finally he opened the right door, one of several doors that led into the room. It was an impressive library, a big room lined with book cases that went up to the ceiling, several ladders to actually be able to reach the higher up books, because there were a lot of them and it had a high ceiling. "I think my father collected for a while. Dunno. They liked collecting stuff."

"Yeah, possible." Victor had taken a seat on the leather couch at the centre of the room, looking at Lucius more than he looked at the room. He didn't have a fascination with books. But he did like watching Lucius be fascinated. "I don't even know that that is. Like... Diverse bio? Dunno."

And he'd not have cared either, if it wasn't for how he liked when Victor explained stuff to him.

"Huh." Victor wondered whether it was too late to ask what a barnacle was. Maybe. He didn't want to embarrass himself. "Sounds interesting." Even if he wasn't quite sure what a barnacle was, he liked that Lucius did stuff like that. It was fun. "So, I guess Oswald isn't smart like you two, yeah?"

He was starting to get the picture. "I don't really use this place much, so, y'know. You can have it." Well, that sounded weird. "Access, whenever you want. You know how to appreciate books."

"I like our relationship. I didn't care much for the others." One way or the other. Not as if they bothered him either, exactly, although it was fun to have a change of pace from the usual. Very different dates than he had been having as of late.

"Are you free tomorrow, Lucius?" He crossed his legs, watching him. "You like museums, right?"
zsaszle: (I was a killer)

"Huh." Victor thought about what he enjoyed. Hard to say, honestly. "See? You are unique." Maybe that was a girl and boy thing, although he would still assume it was more about Lucius being Lucius. None of the girlfriends ever suggested that they do something Victor wanted. Which made things easier, honestly. "I'll try and come up with something I enjoy by Thursday."

he shrugged. "I enjoy watching you read. It's nice."

"M-hm." Victor shifted along the sofa closer to Lucius and looked at him, then gently pushed down the book Lucius was holding. "I need you."

That said he kissed his cheek for the third time, smiling a little. "There. Better."

With that done, he let Lucius focus on his book.
