Summary: Viggo's built a house in the desert.
Disclaimer: Not RL; didn't happen. If you think this has anything to do with the real actors involved, then you need to put down the crack pipe.
Notes: Rain Chains are used in place of downspouts primarily in Japan, although you can get them in the US as well. I first saw them in a Sunset magazine years ago and looked them up this afternoon for some sort of bunny that quickly vanished once I saw these pictures. Add to that the fact that I've been listening to Jennifer Warnes' cover of Leonard Cohen's "Famous Blue Raincoat" and had wanted to write about Viggo and that song in some way, and the whole thing just came together. It's been years -- ten OMG! -- but when I first started writing I headed my fics with ambiance lyrics. As usual, many thanks go out to helens78 for the excellent beta

( 'It actually rains here,' Viggo explained a little sheepishly. 'On occasion.' )
