( Jayce laughs. It's a strange feeling. He hasn't laughed since before the attack on the council, since he had a light enough heart capable of it.)
It's true, neither of us was in the mood for talking.
( They crashed together with a fervid energy that came from equal amounts of pain and love. He only wishes that they could still be in bed together, enjoying the aftermath of finally getting something they both deeply wanted, but he had to ruin it this morning with his paranoia. But then it brought them here, which is where they have to be. They have to stop what could happen. It is more important than their personal wants.
He's still surprised when Viktor points out he's a distraction and he glances down, having forgotten entirely that he's naked. The touches of Viktor's hands on him should have reminded him, but it's been an overwhelming few minutes.)
Oh ... right. We'll ... circle back to that.
( The nudity. And distractions. Maybe. If they're lucky. Jayce goes over to where Viktor brought him clothes earlier and starts tugging them on. They fit, of course, Viktor knows his size, although he's thinned out from lack of food and he's less bulk than pure muscle at this point. He feels more like a person when he does that though, so he thinks it was probably for the best. It's amazing what food, a bath, and some clothes can do for a person who was lacking in all of them only a day before.)
It's not, they were completely inorganic when I saw them. There was nothing human left of them. The way the other you talked, at some point he thought he was ridding people of imperfections by changing them.
( And that doesn't seem to be the case here. Currently Viktor has changed and healed people, yes, but he isn't trying to dominate them entirely. Or pinpointed the human things within them that have to go. They're not that far gone. That's the important part, and what he'll keep reminding them both.
Now fully dressed, he returns to Viktor and reaches out to snag his hand, threading their fingers together. )
I told him I had to find a way to stop it. We're going to do that, the two of us.
