[ you're polyamorous frogging me right now? on the day of my daughter's wedding/paintball fight/auction? fredo ..........
patience is not a trait lucien is known for, particularly. he rubs his temple with a few fingers, like he's trying to shake something loose. ]
What choice is there to make here? I lay no claim. It doesn't matter how close you all claim to be, you remain on the other side of the mirror, and I remain here. What do you believe comes next? Either death, oblivion, here at the end of everything. Or I will finish what I have started here, and then I will return to my work and any mortal concerns will have to cease entirely. I am not a choice, I am an illusion. A fool actor, giving a last encore.
[ BUDDY HE'S GOT AN APOCALYPSE TO GET TO, HE IS ALREADY LATE. ]
You will return to-- a beautiful and glorious kingdom of bounty with your ... good-hearted nonsense and speeches about the beauty of love and friendship.
[ correct, he is a polyamorous amphibian, this is as close to an ic polyamorous frog moment as possible.
that said, this reaction is worrying. he lets lucien talk until he's worn out of words for the time being, letting there be a pause before he responds. he does not know lucien's plans, or his fate. ]
There's worth to something, even if it ends. I told Viktor that too.
[ he shuts his eyes a moment before sighing, head-tail swishing lightly, once. ]
Is it so wrong that I think you could both be happy for a moment? Glory and love and friendship... maybe you find it trite, but why not just—accept it? [ he really ends up wingmanning these two crazies every other day ]
[ sorry he is Positive. also honest, in an honorable kind of way, unfortunately. ]
Viktor is very dear to me. But you have a different sort of... connection to him than I do. One I hope will flourish and bring you both companionship. I hope you don't mind my saying as much, no matter what your circumstances are.
no subject
Hm... Your patience, I suppose. He has a lot troubling him.
[ he would like lucien to be nice if it comes up... ]
For what it's worth, I don't care to make him choose between anyone.

I never said I found it trite, I said it never works out well for me.
[ he did call it nonsense. that was thing he did. ]
no subject
That doesn't mean it never will!

Don't say that immediately after-- what? Asking for a threesome?
no subject
he stops in his encouragements to laugh, surprised. ]
No no, I mean— [ wow! ] I'm not asking for, ah. A 'threesome?'
It just felt a bit... dishonorable not to tell you my feelings for him? And that I don't intend to be some sort of obstacle to you.
