Summary
If he had, if he had done something to make Viktor see himself as who he was, and not what he could be… Maybe none of this had to happen.
But there was nothing he could do, no way for him to go back and change their fates. All he could do was be there in the moment, and keep taking a pickaxe to that shroud of detachment Viktor had tightly surrounded himself with, trying to pretend.
Trying to be more.
And so sometimes Jayce wept, and then he kept going, because that was the only choice he had.
For himself, and for Viktor, and for their child. He kept going, every day grabbing that metaphorical pickaxe on his way out, marching right up to that wall, and pick at it over and over and over again, before starting it all over the day to follow.
Over and over and over again.
-------------
One slight change, just a difference of what is said, might be what's needed for a wild new road to open ahead.

Summary
God knows it’s the longest, most quiet minute Jayce has ever experienced. Eventually, Viktor clears his throat. “Were you…Were you serious? About me joining you for Christmas?”
It's so quiet that Jayce almost misses it.
At some point, he also reminds himself to inhale. “Of course!” he breathes. “Viktor, I, I don’t want you to be here by yourself.”
A faint frown tightens Viktor’s brow again, deeper than the last, but it’s gone as soon as it appears. He sighs and nods, almost to himself. “Thank you, I…I will take you up on that offer. If that’s okay, of course, with your family.”

College!AU - Jayce realises that Viktor will be spending the Christmas alone at the university. He invites him to spend it with the Talis family, instead. Apparently, the word "partner" can have all kinds of meanings.
