[ jayce's screwdriver clatters to the floor unceremoniously, slipping through his suddenly clumsy hold, and he shoots out to steady it and the noise it causes. perhaps this only startles him because he wasn't expecting it, like, at all, his slightly widened eyes don't deny that, for as split second as they are! one of the horses even seem to be snickering at him from afar, which seals the darkening of his jowls what feels to him like permanently. his reaction is terrible, embarrassing really—
but he gets past his barricade of o-oh, oh— and laughs it off, both relieved for some reason that it wasn't a thing like what he'd been thinking as well as flustered, beyond his own good.
there's nothing wrong, with talking about that. right? even though jayce's sexual activity has been abismally absent because of his own doing. he's only ever slept with one woman, and that was quite some time ago. he was young and a little stupid. ]
Well, ah, [ screwdriver firm. in his hands. not going to fall again. he proofs the screw he'd earlier squeezed, but it occurs to him that he's trying the wrong one. going left to the correct hole, and smiling, dumbly, caging viktor's knee from the right: ] that makes two of us, hah.
[ he's not uncomfortable; only a bit caught off guard. it's for one, better than hearing he was going to be wed.
