ar_cane: (what is and what will be)

[ Viktor is struggling against the cage of his own mind, wishing for once he didn't think so damn much but always falling back on it like a crutch. His brain was how he made sense of a world he didn't quite fit into, a cog slightly out of sync with all the others. Jayce felt like maybe he was spinning at the same pace, same timing, but Viktor thinks it would be cruel to ask him to slow down so they could try and slot together.

From a metaphysical distance much larger than the physical one actually between them, Viktor hears Jayce call his name and thinks of what could follow. He's heard his name on those pretty lips before, in conversations and dreams, but he's never sure what will come after them. Heat encircles his wrist and pulls him up short as it spreads through him like wildfire, making him shiver with the realization of how cold he had been a moment before.

Turning around, facing Jayce, he's struck by the oddity of the answer, both because he actually received it and because it sounded so unsure. ]
