[ He gives another soft huff and doesn't push the breakfast argument, relaxing again when Viktor agrees to let him help. He'll even shovel some of the eggs into his mouth - and god, after what he'd been living off of - these might be the best eggs he's tasted in his damn life.
Everything about this is both familiar and completely strange. The banter feels normal, comfortable - but the setting is all wrong. In all their time together he rarely spent time in Viktor's flat, they both practically lived in the lab - Viktor even more than him. And this place is obviously... not what Jayce is used to. Even so, the cramped space is still Viktor, ceiling to floor. His own half state of undress hasn't bothered him this entire time, but out of nowhere something about this hits a self-conscious nerve - this feels like an indulgence to him.
The question is met with a sheepish look as he swallows another bite of his eggs, which have rapidly vanished from his plate. ]
Not exactly my wheelhouse, but I'm a quick study. [ he admits this with a sigh and a rueful expression. ] I didn't come down here too often.
[ Pretty much the last time was right before they met - until more recently. By then, things had gotten much worse than he remembered. ]
