[Finally, Viktor responds, and Jayce’s door flies open as he’s wide-eyed and in just his boxers. In his apartment, there’s about a dozen lit candles, and a present on the bed, but whatever romantic and sultry vibe he was planning on having has been replaced with anxiety.]
[ Viktor is just as surprised because he was heading over and not paying attention to his watch while doing so. He often forgets it's on his wrist sometimes, actually, but then the door opened, and Jayce is standing there looking rather out of sorts.
Viktor tilts his head in inquiry, looking beyond Jayce and into his room...oh. He can't help but look around the hallway before gently placing a hand against Jayce's chest to push him back inside. ]
Let's talk inside? [ Jayce is basically naked, and Viktor is also basically naked, and he does not need anyone else to see them both like this right now!! He will finally look at his watch briefly and the explosion of texts left on it. Jayce... ]
Are you alright? Do not tell me you got anxious as I walked over here. I was not mad and...I was going for a surprise visit, but perhaps it came off a bit stronger than intended. [ Hm. He'll have to work on that. But that was also worded poorly, but also not really. People do come and go here just as easily as anything else, but that's not a conversation he'd like to have tonight. The hand on Jayce's chest will trail slowly up to his jaw to cup his cheek. ]
[Viktor presses him back inside, and Jayce steps aside to let him in, closing the door afterward.]
You stopped answering so fast, I thought...
[Well, he thought a hundred things. He imagined that Viktor had vanished the moment he stopped talking- which he knows is incredibly unlikely, but try telling that to his anxiety. He imagined that Viktor interpreted his disappointment as disinterest- disappointment, even the slightest amount, is something he already feels nervous admitting to, given the people-pleaser that he is. Along with the fact he tried to change things up, it had "I fucked up" written all over it when he poured over the very small text exchange. Maybe Viktor was distracted by someone else more interesting, maybe Viktor had been kidnapped-]
Don't worry about it. I'm fine now.
[And he reaches up to cup Viktor's hand, sliding it over slightly so he can press a kiss to his palm.]
I do often wonder what you think. So smart and yet you can be quite the fool sometimes. You thought I might be mad at you, Jayce? [ Dear Janna. ] Quite the opposite. I enjoyed the photos you sent.
[ He just gives him a look and a huff as Jayce presses his lips against his palm. It sends a thrill through him, but he does have to look behind Jayce before raising an eyebrow at the display. ]
What is all of that? [ Besides extremely romantic for something that was a simple texting thread. Viktor sure is having so many mixed feelings about it. He feels...strange but not in a bad way. Just most of their encounters thus far haven't exactly been like this, romantic and so openly at that. Viktor's look is quick, so he misses the present on the bed, focusing back on Jayce instead. ]
[A little embarrassed at how off-base he was, he instead doesn't elaborate on what scenarios his mind ran through, because it would ruin the moment even more than he already almost had.]
The candles?
[They have clearly been melting for at least an hour, but all the lights in the apartment are on, since he didn't work his way up to their purpose in the photos.]
Mood lighting. And also... you know. Maybe other uses, if we wanted.
[Waxplay, for one. Jayce is still holding Viktor's hand, although now intertwining their fingers, and pulling Viktor in closer so he can place his other hand on the small of Viktor's back.]
And the present is because I didn't get you a gift for the holiday or your birthday, so I doubled up on it.
Other uses, Jayce? [ Wow. Viktor looks at him, a little bit mesmerized and amused. ] Well, I am always glad to see you so eager to try new things.
[ It's very, very, interesting. Viktor, when pulled in closer, lets out a soft sigh as he lets go of his staff, placing it against the nearest countertop before using his other free hand to caress Jayce's cheek.
Nothing but yearning and wanting in his eyes as he smiles slightly. ]
I see. [ He gives Jayce a small, gentle kiss. ] I like this. It is different, but when it comes from you, it does make me feel...content.
[ Loved. Wanted. It almost feels like too much all at once, but Viktor doesn't voice that to not ruin the mood. ] If this is the gift I get for sending you half-naked photos, I will have to invest in doing so more often.
[ Just trailing that hand down toward Jayce's chest now. ]
I've told you before, there's a lot of new things I want to try. I could make a list? We can make a schedule?
[Trying to organize their sexual activities into itemized and checkboxed list... You know, like a scientist would do.
With both of Viktor's hands on him now, and the staff away, Jayce takes the opportunity to kiss Viktor, and then lean him back, dipping him with the kiss. He pulls Viktor back up once he feels the blood start to rush to his head a little too much.]
You could have sent me nothing and I still would have done this. I'd do this for you any day of the week. But also, send me the pictures. I'll find a way to put them on my wall.
Like me watching you and Dodger? You seemed quite eager to try that. But I am glad that you want me there, as long as I get to have you afterwards. [ A breathy little admission into Jayce's ear before he pulls back. ]
You really want to schedule and make lists for this sort of thing? [ Viktor can't help but let out a soft laugh. It's ridiculous, but so obviously them that he can't help but agree to it. ]
But I would like that, quite a bit. There have been some things...I would like to, eh, try as well with you. [ Does cracking open your soulmate's chest and touching the weirdly cosmic eldritch goo underneath count as a sexual act or a science experiment?! Tbd!
Viktor's eyes shimmer with surprise when he's dipped backwards like that? Jayce please!? His free hand goes to cup Jayce's neck, deepening that kiss even as they both come back up. He is pressing himself eagerly against Jayce's body now, eyes half-lidded. ]
I will send you one, no multiple, every day from now on, if you would like.
[Jayce's eyebrows pinch together, lips pursed as Viktor brings up Dodger, once again a little red in the face and trying to disguise it.]
At least, you know... Once. To see if we like it.
[Nevermind that he's getting hard at the idea of being passed back and forth between them.]
We can be loose with the schedule, but a checklist- come on. You can't say that wouldn't be a good idea.
[He presses another kiss to Viktor's lips, then slides his tongue into Viktor's mouth, pressing against Viktor's own. With his hand still on Viktor's hips, he pulls him close, and his rather unsubtle hard-on presses against Viktor's stomach, even as he breaks away again.]
Tell me more about what you'd like to try. Maybe I've got something in that box that'll help get the job done.
I think I see clearly enough how much you do like the idea of it. [ Viktor will murmur against Jayce's lips as a pleased moan passes them with those kisses. His hands rake through Jayce's hair as he steadies him. He can feel Jayce's hard-on pressed up against his stomach, and it makes a thrill shoot down his spine.
Once they part, Viktor will shift against Jayce, those eyes of his multicolored as he looks taken with Jayce once again. He'll mull it over...unsure of how to really explain what it is he wants Jayce to do to him. ] You have a screwdriver in there, Jayce? [ Is he joking or serious? Judging by his tone, he is entirely serious!! But they're also freaks, so he really, really, wouldn't be surprised. ] Beneath all of...this, it feels indescribable when things touch through the gaps.
[ It sounds incredibly weird to talk about his body like a science experiment, but he knows Jayce will not judge him for it, or so he hopes. ] If you were to undo one or two and use your hands...I want to see what it feels like.
[ He will take Jayce's wrist and drag his hand along the bolts affixed to his chest, the topmost one is in the shape of his suit, but the others are the remnants of his backbrace fused to his body by the hexcore's transformation. In doing this, he's showing Jayce exactly what he means. He'll look back up at Jayce with a wary expression. ]
Would you be open to doing that for me? [ The tone is as dismissive as it is wanting, and Viktor's other hand strays between them to the base of Jayce's cock. His eyes are half-lidded as he lets out a soft sigh. ] It might feel incredible to have your fingers inside me like that. [ He knows for a fact it will. ]
I only want you to do this. You gave me this body, so we should enjoy it together.
[Viktor's fucking with him, isn't he? Oh wait, no, he isn't. Jayce listens, brows furrowed, his hand dragged along Viktor's stomach and chest, where the bolts of his brace are embedded now into his skin. Viktor's hand teasing him already sure isn't helping him keep a clear mind about this, either.]
You want me to open you up, literally, and stick my hand in?
[He's a little agape, more because of precisely how dangerous that could be. They haven't studied Viktor's new form enough to know what could happen even before he sticks his hand in- just undoing those bolts alone could tear Viktor apart. Maybe.]
You're... really sure?
[He's curious about it, of course he is. The very first thing he wanted to do when they were together in that astral mind space was to try and shove himself inside Viktor. It's only the potential for danger that would hold him back. But if Viktor's truly certain...]
What you're reaching for right now isn't a screwdriver. But I've got one in the drawer.
Yes I am sure. I have never had much say over it, my body, but this is something I can say for certain I wish to learn about with you, together. [ It's a hushed whisper as he stalls his hand, eyes looking back at Jayce with worry and a tinge of uncertainty. ]
It does not have to be right now in this moment if you are...worried. [ It is a bit of a curveball to this otherwise strange day they're having, and Viktor already worried Jayce enough as is coming here. ]
But I did want to make it known for the future, for later, and perhaps we can discuss how to go about it together. Unless you would like to try now? [ He will lean in to kiss Jayce on the lips before pulling back. He gives him a questioning look. ]
[He knows it's not Viktor's intent to remind him of how Jayce himself was someone who helped contribute to Viktor not feeling like he had any say over his body, but he does tighten his jaw upon hearing it, his own guilt there but fleeting.]
If it's what you want to do, we can do it now.
[He leans in, giving another replying kiss to Viktor's own, and then kissing his forehead as well.]
I'll just need to find my tools. And... blow out all the candles.
[ The humming in Viktor's chest pauses for a second, and he looks surprised but also genuinely appreciative of Jayce's willingness to go along with his crazy ideas for the night. But there is one little thing... ]
Perhaps we should, ah, help you first? I cannot imagine it will be easy to concentrate when you are, well, hard.
[ Taking care of Jayce is just as important to him, and he wants this to be good for them both. His cheeks are also flushed as he murmurs that, eyes looking down between them. ] I want you to enjoy yourself as well, Jayce.
done
Viktor!
I'm cryin why is he like this 😭😭
Viktor tilts his head in inquiry, looking beyond Jayce and into his room...oh. He can't help but look around the hallway before gently placing a hand against Jayce's chest to push him back inside. ]

I apologize if I made you worry.

ain't that the truth
