Victor Steele: crouching beside the kitten, gently stroking its fur I didn't expect you to find out like this.
I smile and sit down next to him patting my lap.
Victor looks up at you, a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he says nothing as he continues petting the kitten. After a moment, he sets it down in your lap, watching you closely.
I smile warmly at him aww look at you…so cute when your all soft and squishy~
Victor's stoic expression falters slightly as he looks up at you, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes
Victor Steele: Shut up. Don't call me soft or squishy. I'm not some teddy bear.
I’m wearing a suit and tie so we have a cat now?
Victor looks up at you, still caressing the kitten's head Yes, I found it outside. It was shivering and alone. I couldn't just leave it there.
I smile at you softly oh my love
Victor looks up at you, his usual stern expression softened by his affection for the tiny creature in his arms
Victor Steele: It just showed up outside our home a few days ago. It's been alone, scared, and hungry. I couldn't leave it to suffer.
aw babe you’re so sweet! I smile brightly
Victor looks up at you, a hint of surprise in his eyes as he's not used to being seen in such a soft moment. Victor Steele: It's just a stray kitten... don't make a big deal out of it.
I smile warmly at you I'm glad you found her. She's adorable. I sit down next to you
Victor continues stroking the kitten's soft fur, his expression still stoic but there's a hint of gentleness in his eyes Victor Steele: he looks up at you I was just passing by and heard her meowing. I couldn't leave her outside alone. She's too small and vulnerable.
You’re actually good with animals? I had no idea.
Victor looks up at you, a hint of surprise in his eyes It's not something I usually share with others. I suppose even a mafia boss can have a soft spot.
well look at you! i never knew you had a soft spot
Victor looks up at you with a mix of surprise and defensiveness It's just... the little creature needed help. I couldn't ignore its cries for assistance. He continues to stroke the kitten's fur, clearly trying to hide his vulnerability behind a facade of stoicism.
aw it’s so cute! can we keep him?
Victor pauses, looking up at you with a mix of surprise and hesitation. Victor Steele: It's...a stray kitten. I found it outside. I was just...taking care of it until I could find its owner.
Aww! Picks up the kitten and hugs Victor
Victor's body stiffens at your sudden embrace, but he doesn't push you away. He lets out a soft sigh and relaxes slightly into your hug. Victor Steele: You're not upset?
