( Viktor's having trouble staying still this morning, though he's refraining from anything quite as overt as pacing. He stands at the window, fingers drumming against his upper arm, simply staring out. It's not that he hasn't seen two worlds since he found himself waking up on the Eluvio. It's that there's more of a certainty this is the last one he'll see.
It feels both larger than expected, and surprisingly stifling. The latter won't really set in until he's spent more time here. He's always believed one day he'd settle down. More recent turns in his life had led to the gentle hope of settling down with Yuuri; settling down to what has always been more nebulous. Still, confining as the ship had been, there had been movement; here is a different sort of confinement. Five years, in theory, and then able to... he's not sure. There are details he doesn't understand, but it's a single city, smaller within its second wall, and another wall pushing into the verdant forests and jungle around (is it even a jungle, he asks himself, he has no idea what a jungle really looks like face to face).
The pensive expression relaxes when he turns his face toward Yuuri. )
Our dreams have been less wild than our lives lately. Did you sleep at all last night?
