[ It's just a slight cough here or there, but Viktor hasn't said anything about his health, not wanting to worry Jayce. He does notice that his lungs and chest do feel heavy at times but it's nothing he's unused to. Either way, Viktor looks anywhere but at Jayce as he says that. The pout would surely take him out if he saw it, and Viktor is far too stubborn to make a quip back.

He listens silently as he looks through the stack of books Jayce has brought back. His face was getting ever more heated. Why. Why did he buy so many?? Viktor is still just as confused about Jayce's intentions as ever. ] Do they...really see our relationship like that?

[ He spares one quick glance Jayce's way before he gets into his head again and looks back at some of those cover arts. He sounds...confused, but it doesn't sound like he minds it either. If anything, his expression is thoughtful and amused, if only slightly. ] The creativity is inspired, I will give them that. On second thought...Jayvik is utterly ridiculous.
