I understand. [he understands that kind of pain very well and he aches for Jayce to know what he's going through. Still, it's better to be alive and hurting than give in.]

We'll find a way to manage the pain, I promise. I won't rest until I find a way to make it bearable for you. [Viktor's not even sure he needs to sleep in this form, but guess they'll see. He eyes the tubes and valves connecting their bodies, how slipshod the whole operation was. It's a cruel thought, but he really owes this kind of capability to Singed. Viktor definitely wouldn't know how to pull something so bio-mechanical off without having learned from that man.

He also could not let what he loved die.]

I have the strength to carry you back to the Convoy, in case you can't walk. We can rehabilitate that, if your coordination is in poor shape. And, you probably need something more careful to clean up than a shower, this time around... [he won't leave Jayce to figure this out himself. If Viktor is going to be so selfish as to revive him, he'll see through all the tough recovery to follow.]

Before then, we'll need to clamp off the connection between us. I don't want to risk it being too soon, Jayce.
