( Viktor leans in again, resting his forehead against Yuuri's. In this dim lighting, it puts him into sharper contrast; leaves enough room for them both to breathe without adding in a distance Viktor doesn't want right now. His fingers curl around Yuuri's hands, warmth radiating up his arm from where those tender lips pressed down over his ring. Empowering what they both can give to each other, in that quiet space, in that love he doesn't doubt. a bond that goes beyond it, even, so deep as to be unshakeable even if the details are left murky time to time.

he smiles, eyes closing as he breathes out in a soft huff of amusement. the best laid plans of both god and man... )

I was going to ask yesterday. Things got a little off track.

( He's a big romantic sap, even if most would never have guessed, once upon a dream. )

[yokunaru]

You were going to ask on Valentine's Day.

[A hint of amusement mixed with fondness laces his words now, and he chuckles softly. That does sound like something Viktor would do, now that he thinks about it.]

Were you going to wait until after the exhibition? [Prepping for a performance, even one that wouldn't be scored and judged, would've been hectic and leave no time for a proposal--at least, he that's what he assumes.]

[genice]

Mm... Did I ever play my exhibition music for you?

( he knows he hasn't, at least not for the new routine he had been planning to skate. it's also his answer, on several levels: not quite after and of course I was going to ask then.

He figures Chris would have excused the re-appropriation of his birthday. )

[yokunaru]

[That's not...an answer. Yuuri narrows his eyes, mentally replaying Viktor's words and searching for what he might've missed the first time.

There's a suspicion growing in his mind now.]

No... you didn't. [He says slowly, almost warily.] What was it?

[genice]

Oh, "Death of a Bachelor." I should really play it for you.

( For a man who could choose to be subtle, Viktor just often chooses to be anything but. )

[yokunaru]

[Yuuri chokes. That...is definitely not subtle.] There's actually a song by that name?

[Speaking of not subtle though...Yuuri stiffens when something occurs to him.]

Wait...you weren't...going to do something during this song, were you?

[genice]

( Ahahaha... he laughs, rubbing at the back of his head. )

During it? I was planning on skating.

( AFTER............ THOUGH..................................... )
