Summary
Jayce stood, then, unable to resist that urge to feel like he was doing something right. He rested his hand on Viktor’s shoulder, and felt the sensation of ice, cold and sharp, spreading up through his very bones. Deep and inextricably linked to himself, too far below the surface. Even if he felt like he was hardly doing enough, the small, relaxed breath that Viktor let out was a balm to his soul.
“We lost ourselves,” Viktor said, “We lost our dream. In the pursuit of great, we… We failed to do good.”
Viktor didn’t know the half of it. And that hurt Jayce more than any pain he took on for Viktor ever could.
-- Or, Jayce is hiding a secret from Viktor, one that could take away his pain just for a while, but also put Jayce in more long-lasting danger than he realized. (For the Jayvik Gift Exchange, 2025).
