because if you say that, inevitably some morning person is going to come along and talk about how much of the day you're missing and suggest to "go to bed earlier". as if that fixes things!
[ Oh, that's an interesting job! But it also makes him think of things he doesn't want to think about. Like some memories. And his private investigator job. Which he's been neglecting. A lot. A fact that might also get him in trouble if he doesn't do anything about it soon.
Anyway, he's blocking that train of thought like yesterday. He's curious about Grell's job, though. ]
Wow, that sounds busy! Is it? You're the first person I meet who does that
it depends on what you define as busy. i don't see as many people as a doctor who works in a clinic, but there's more than enough to keep a person fully occupied for the whole of her shift. a lot of the time it's much more mundane than television makes it out to be, but i wouldn't deny it's work that requires you to think.
you've got the more glamorous job by far. i've always admired those who could dance well.
[ He started saying this for Reasons and now he's having fun?? He even considered inviting her to make a guess for a split second. Live the moment, Viktor! ]
[that's a pair of words she hadn't expected to see at all. she doubts she would have ever guessed, if he'd given her the chance to - dancing and detective work, two distinct disciplines. what a curious puzzle of himself Viktor's revealed so far.]
that's an impressive side job, if i may say so. i've nothing but the highest respect for detectives and all the work you do. though for both our sakes i hope i don't need to meet you in a professional capacity any time soon.
[not that she'd mind, but not everyone wants to exchange pleasantries over a dead body.]

im sorry for my disappearing act this week was a mess ;;
Date: 2017-03-19 04:56 am (UTC)Or should I reciprocate? Is there an etiquette for this sort of situation?
don't worry! i hope everything's alright
Date: 2017-03-19 08:42 am (UTC)yes! i'm slowly getting things back on track <3
Date: 2017-03-19 09:17 am (UTC)But I'm not that much of a stranger anymore, am I?

Date: 2017-03-20 01:40 am (UTC)i suppose you aren't entirely a stranger now, though, since you're someone i definitely wouldn't mind hearing more from.

I do have another job though! Well, I like to call it a hobby, since it's not my main source of income, but I take it seriously

But it might happen at some point, so I thought I'd mention it
