When: Now-ish

[Victor is thrilled with the gift James gave him. Just as he's sure James loved all the camera equipment Victor got for him. Knowing very little about cameras, he just got a lot of different models and film types, thinking James can experiment with the medium. As for the other Jim, Victor had sent over some drawings he made. It does help that he knows what the crew of the Enterprise looks like, so he could do lots of drawings of them for Jim.

Since this is a new year and all, Victor is going to kick it off doing something he normally wouldn't do: perform in public. James got him a violin-type instrument that he's been eager to play. Why not do it in front of an audience? So he plays a song, letting a few beats of silence pass after he's done before speaking]

About a year ago, I arrived in a place called Riverview. I was bitter and lonely, and back then only wanted to focus on my work. But over the course of the year I built up friendships and met people I grew to love. I feel so lucky that one of those people is here with me now, and agreed to marry me.

I'm interested in seeing what this year will bring me.

We tend to do that.

But as for that, the "monster" is my responsibility.

Sorry I don't have a name for him? and yes I suppose that's true.

In the book, he calls himself Adam.

I think we've determined that you are not the book though? Also i forgot.

Well, no offense, but I don't know you well enough to tell the whole story.

That is fair, I've overstepped again. I will back off

I can't blame you for being curious. I just like to keep some aspects of my story personal.

Which is fair, it's your story. Curious is a nice word for nosey and intrusive which I was being.

Then I must be nosy and intrusive too, since I have curiosity in spades.

Seriously, I'd rather people ask than just make assumptions. I might not give an answer, but I'll still appreciate the question.

well that's good to know. Remind me of this moment if I ever get indignate at your curiosity because I tend to be hypocritical in that regard.

I'll keep that in mind.

I should let you get back to your playing. Thank you again for broadcasting.

[He's just going to go crawl into a hole and berate himself on making things awkward]
