He feels doomed. “You always were the optimist, Jayce. But optimism does not erase the past. It does not undo what I have done and what I almost did. Just because it did not happen in this world it does not mean that it didn’t happen at all.” The words hang between them, a challenge and an invitation all at once. Viktor’s chest tightens, his mind a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts and emotions. Inevitably, his eyes land on the fingertip shaped scars that decorate Jayce’s forehead like a circlet, a forever-reminder of Viktor’s actions. The weight of his guilt is not something he can set down so easily, especially with his most recent problem. “Viktor, you don’t need to–” “I need some air,” Viktor says abruptly, stepping around Jayce and heading for the door. Jayce doesn’t stop him, though Viktor can feel his gaze lingering as he steps outside. - - - In which Viktor and Jayce end up somewhere else, healed by the Arcane and given a second chance at life, one that comes with old regrets, lingering love and an unexpected complication. A pity they're both too emotionally constipated to sort it out just yet.
