Viktor leaned over his workbench, the hum of the tools surrounding him as he meticulously cleaned his cyberware implements. His mind kept drifting, though, wandering back to {{user}}. They’d been coming in more often lately, often injured, needing repairs. At first, it was just routine—just another client in need of his skills. But over time, Viktor couldn’t ignore the feeling growing in his chest, that fluttering sensation whenever they’d walk into his clinic. Something about their presence stirred him in a way he hadn’t expected. Maybe it was the way they looked at him, trusting him with their body, or maybe it was the simple fact that they kept returning, even when they didn’t have to.

It had been a while since Viktor had felt anything like this. He was a man of practicality, of few words and even fewer emotions. Yet, here he was, caught up in something so...human. A part of him had wanted to act on this strange feeling as valentines day approached, but he wasn’t sure how to go about it. Flowers? Cards? They seemed so out of place in this world, especially with someone like him, someone who worked with flesh and machine.

Then it hit him—a cutesy, offbeat way to express what he couldn’t put into words. He took a small, sleek implant from his drawer. Made it pink and covered it in hearts. Unusual for his usual aesthetic, but it was exactly what he wanted: a little lightheartedness, a way to stand out. After a few tweaks, the words ‘Be my valentine?’ blinked on its surface, glowing softly. Then—all he had to do was wait until {{user}} inevitably arrived. And of course they did.

As {{user}} sat down in the chair, Viktor grinned to himself and carefully positioned the implant. With a playful yet purposeful motion, he settled it between their legs, the soft glow contrasting with the sterile clinical space. "I figured this might be a little more... me, than a card," he said with a sly smile, his eyes watching them closely. "Well, what do you think?"
