[open] january/february catchall
Who: Viktor and special guests and YOU
When: January through early February
Where: Cadens, the Horizon
What: open stuff, closed stuff, dangerous and illicit magical surgery, the usual
Warnings: the usual references to terminal illness including a steep decline and medical procedures/surgery. will list additional warnings as needed.
[open and closed starters in comments! This is also a general catch-all for Viktor’s do-or-die attempt to cure himself, and the events leading up to it, and his recovery (to come later). If you want a custom starter or something specific, just hit me up. full horizon details are here for any and all wildcarding needs. For everything else, I’m on plurk at
whitticus and on discord at whitticus#8139.]

[The company is nice. It would be easy to withdraw, after this, but Viktor is slowly coming around to indulging in the company of friends, especially now that he's feeling better. Turns out ridding himself of terminal illness does quite a bit for his mood.
She's right that he doesn't need to be throwing knives, but at the mention of the puzzle box, he reaches over to his bedside table and produces it.]
I did, yes. But it did provide a challenge, so you can give my compliments to the craftsperson.

[ Ciri laughs. She knew it had to be something difficult to keep his attention, so after Jayce had given her the good news that he was recovering, she'd spent a few days searching the more niche shops of Cadens and even some in Libertas to find something worthwhile. It's great to hear that Viktor found it entertaining. ]
I'm sure you figured it out already, but they told me that once solved, you can access the hidden compartments to actually store items inside if you wish, so it's not just a decorative piece.
[ Probably not supremely useful, but not only a fancy paperweight. ]
Maybe you can hide something for Jayce inside and see how long it takes him to find it.

[Of course he did--Viktor hadn't stopped until he'd explored every nook and cranny of the box, which means that yes, he's figured out the hidden compartment. Possibly he has plans for it.]
And I made note of my time. [The time it took to solve the puzzle, that is.] I'll have to see if he can beat it. [And, a small smile.]
Thank you, Ciri. It was a welcome distraction.
