[ good thing jayce was joking, but he has to push the remaining air in his lungs right out into a snort after that one. ]
I've always wanted to be held hostage by our work, you know.
[ back when the council had started to wrap their claws around him for funding and using his image. his stress was over top, then. how he wished to just go back to the lab and do something productive instead of, like. choosing presentation banner colors. or listen to them argue. and don't get him started on hexgate security, he'd barely had time to even fantisize about being back in the lab. in fact, it would sometimes hurt to think of it. to think of viktor. he should've allowed himself to feel more, even if it would be pain. pain makes it mean something.
right. but enough of that. present. not past. besides that, jayce grips viktor's shoulder plates and begins to chuckle under his breath. he's not daft enough to tell viktor to not. please. when's he eve kicked down a door? jayce supports his wrongs. keep going. he's not the fun police. ]
