![]() He knew Jayce was joking now because of the tone of his voice. – You just say that because you're my partner. – his voice sounded just slightly high pitched. Viktor tried to sound distracted, not taking his sight off the runes. Medarda knows it too– Viktor said, turning his seat around to look at the rune matrix again. ![]() Because this was what all this 'Mel' thing was about, right? Just Jayce's insecurities. Viktor fell in love with the quirky man slouching over a crystal in gloomy Heimerdinger’s dispatch, breaching the trial etiquette to speak over the counselors, talking of the beauty of magic like a mad person.ĭamned Jayce's insecurities. He didn’t need to comb his hair a hundred times for that. He looked handsome, gorgeous, desirable, perfect. ![]() How do I look? – he turned back to Viktor. Well, I have my doubts about Bolbok, only because I find his facial expressions hard to read. You have other options if this one fails. If you ever cared to hear the rumors, you'd know probably any of the other Council members would take you on a date as well. – Viktor should congratulate himself later for managing to speak of desire in such a detached way in front of Jayce – I think I haven't met anyone, man, woman, or other, that is not at least partially interested in you. – Jayce you are … – he bit his tongue on time – By popular opinion, you're one of the most desired people in Piltover. You came up with hextech and revolutionized the history of Piltover. I feel so dumb in the sessions when she speaks… – he was combing his perfectly combed hair again. – I mean, she's there and she's so smart. And the rest of the Council voted for you unanimously. So there must be something she praises about you. – You're a Counselor because she proposed you. I just don't like how you make yourself small before her. – Jayce turned to the mirror and undid his necktie to correct it once more. Jayce could have a long, happy life with her. She has always been supportive of hextech in the Council, and supportive of, eh, you. – No one can be in the same room without looking at her. Jayce had such a struggle to believe in himself. And who would be more fit to provide than the personified Piltover's elite herself. Progress Day cheering crowd wasn't enough. Little Jayce Talis looking for validation once more. I can't believe my luck… – Jayce turned to look at Viktor and gesticulated with the comb in his hand– Why would she even look at me? Even I credit the council for being less bureaucratic than that. – A meeting to celebrate another meeting. I’m even starting to doubt it's actually gonna be a regular meeting and… I will make a fool of myself. Jayce was too busy looking at himself in the mirror anyways, obsessively grooming. – Do you have another Council meeting? I thought you already met Counselor Medarda today. He saw Jayce applying grease on his hair. Then he hit them against his lap with frustration. Viktor turned around on his bench, tired, covering his face with his hands. – I just can't find any combination that works… –Jayce said, tucking the tie underneath his vest collar. – Eh… Any hint of a promising contribution to society is yet to be revealed… Viktor answered without taking his eyes off the still blue, harmless, not yet baptized hexcore. Jayce was once more, fixing his tie in front of the mirror in the lab.
