<strong>"Ah, another psychologist. A pleasure, an absolute pleasure? Who did you study under?"</strong><br/><br/>Christopher was of course a believer in the power of psychology. It wouldn't really suit his life choices to not to, now would it? Not that it was entirely beneficial. The phrase that too many cooks spoil the broth applied just as much to affairs of the mind. Two psychologists, two different approaches... it could cause absolute chaos for all involved. The pair would have to be careful, making sure not to completely destroy what the other had done. Not that Christopher particularly cared if his own work completely undid whatever it was this Viktor had done but if the favour was to be repaid it would be infuriating.<br/><br/><strong>"Around two years... so you could say I'm somewhat of a veteran. A Sir Anthony Blaxland Stransham to this New Model Army we have put together here. Now, it has been an utter honour and blessing to meet you but I'm afraid I must return to my duties. I have no doubt we'll talk later... I would love to debate Cecilio Paniagua's new writing on the close-process technique with you but until then I must take my leave".</strong><br/><br/>With another smile and a gracious half-bow Christopher stepped back, freeing Viktor to continue his walk unobstructed, before continuing in the direction he had before, a walk that brought him to Alex's closed door. A few short sharp knocks and he waited to be invited in.
