The dream is real. It has to be because the familiar, gentle tug of the Force feels new. Faint marigold.
Whether by petulance or protection, Viktor puts aside the longing and anger to protect a timeline in which he couldn't have existed. He expects Obi-Wan knows it's there, and he knows he won't have to talk about it until he's ready. He'd rather be here, now.
Viktor's faint smile brightens, brilliant as the sun. It is as Obi-Wan says: wonderful. Even if the man couldn't feel it himself, it shines out of every pore.
Viktor wraps his arms around Obi-Wan, too much gratitude in it to be just a greeting.
"Did you know?" Viktor asks, quiet and unconcerned with the answer. In some ways, Viktor has always known. In about 100 others, it doesn't matter. Viktor's soul is alive and curious, and Obi-Wan is an open book.
