Roger tilted his head to look at at the various gloves on display, wondering which grade of dragonhide gloves to buy himself. There were those who swore black and blue that the hides of different dragons had slightly different properties, but he'd never been totally sure if that were true. Still, he liked the smell of the hide and he desperately needed a new pair, so he grabbed a couple of different types and turned around, nearly bumping into the person behind him.

"Oh Merlin, I'm so sorry," he said, feeling himself blush. "I didn't see you there! I mean, not that you're missable or anything." He closed his eyes, wishing he hadn't made that last statement. "It's Krum, right?"

"Yes, Orla was your teammate, wasn't she," Viktor said easily, rhetorically. He relied on Orla for knowledge of the Arrows as well as some of the tactics from other teams, just like he depended on other team members for other information on other teams some of them had once been a part of.

"Ah vell, mine do complain a fair amount too. But it is for their own good, and they vill see it or they won't." Viktor shrugged faintly as well. He snorted faintly. "Obviously you haff never met my Chasers," he said wryly. It was public knowledge that his Chasers were the weakest part of his team, though they had much improved already this season.

"Oh no, Father Christmas always has at least one good gift," he said with a shake of the head. Even when things had been incredibly tight growing up, there'd always been something from Father Christmas for him and his sibs. "As vell as the needed things, of course."

"She was, yeah," Roger agreed with a considered grin. "I'm sure she fills you in on all sorts of interesting tidbits from when she used to play for the Arrows eh?" He chuckled slightly and raised his hands in a placating manner. "But honestly, she and I are still excellent friends. Do you two get on as well?" He smiled at Viktor, internally awaiting his answer with baited breath - Orla's approval or disapproval counted for much to Roger when it came to possibly friends.

"Well, complaining is good for the soul I'm sure," he replied philosophically. "Plus, as you say it's for their own good." He stifled a laugh at the way his coquettish comment had gone completely unnoticed. "Your chasers are uh..." he searched around for a diplomatic word. "Well they're definitely improving if nothing else, it's hard to keep on form sometimes, I'll admit. I took a bludger to the ribs earlier this year because I was a little bit in love with a teammate - I think that speaks for what we're all like."

"Ah, very good of him," Roger replied, his eyes twinkling. "What do you want from Father Christmas then?"

"No more than normal," Viktor said with a faint grin, not wanting to get Orla in trouble. She was a top rate player, and he considered her a friend of sorts, as much as he could with someone he was in charge of. It made for a lonely position sometimes. "I think we do. She is a good voman, and I think, a friend." Impetuous at times, but that would temper with more experience.

"Improving is a vord for it, da," he said, voice full of amusement. "They are much better than they vere." Which showed in where they'd been ranked before their two week down time. That was a little unfortunate. "Ha da, ven you are not focussed, bludgers do take advantage." He and Mikhail had always been terribly careful to keep such distractions distinctly off the field. He felt a pang -- after all this time, he still missed him, even though they had not been a couple at the time of Mikhail's death, and hadn't for some time.

Viktor grinned and shrugged faintly. "Me? There is very little I am vanting, I think." Hermione seemed like a very distant hope and dream, as always; he can't say he'd completely given up, but he knew it wasn't something to hold out for right now either. "I haff a healthy family and a good team. There is not much more to be vanting, except perhaps for my ex-vife to stay far away, and she is doing that right now, so I cannot be complaining too much."
