There's nothing Viktor can do but shake his head in disbelief. That Five's head is filled with many doubts, regrets is no revelation. The notion that Viktor's rejection is now among those deep-set constellations seems equal parts ridiculous and amazing to the man.
Their whole clan is so bad at this part. Viktor and Klaus lead them in matters of the heart, and Viktor's feels like his only just started beating a handful of years ago.
He has to stretch his arm a little longer than is strictly comfortable to reach him, but Viktor manages to catch Five's fingers with his. He tugs to get enough to hold his hand.
"You won't," Viktor promises, confident in the math leading up to the sum. As far as Viktor knows, the only thing around with more power than the Hargreeves is the city itself -- and even that hasn't succeeded in splitting all of them apart for too long.
"Because I'll still be here. Trapped under magic mistletoe." A smile breaks out, brilliant with an anxious fray. It's unclear for which of them Viktor finds himself squeezing their hands.
