1. It started with Zach throwing himself in the path of something particularly nasty that was headed for Victoria. As he drifted in and out of consciousness, he could hear Victoria screaming some very unVictorian things at their opponent.
Hours later, when she had him stabilized in his bed, he beckoned her to come closer, his throat apparently dry.
He then proceeded to risk busting a suture in the process of sitting up to kiss her. Once he was sure her shock had subsided enough to process words, he stated that nearly dieing entitled him to satisfy a long-standing curiosity.
2. Victoria stormed out of the room, yelling something unintelligible, returning later with fresh bandages and muttering to herself.
"We're not going to speak of... certain things until I'm sure you've recovered. You're clearly in a delusional state."
3. Zach's constitution being what it was, he was on his feet and at her door with flowers about a week later. She grabbed him by the collar and pulled him inside.
4. The neighbors were soon assured, by a bathrobe-clad Victoria at her front door (Zach cackling in the background), that everything was fine, and she was in no danger.
5. After extracting a most solemn promise never to share it with anyone, she allowed him one photo of her with her hair.. askew; along with certain other details.
