After getting the alluring creature into a bath his inventive mind starts ticking when he spies the teared fin of his tail.
The language barrier will make this a little difficult to explain though. Viktor felt alive. The weight of Jayce above him, the heat, the stretch, the intensity of it all. Nothing else had ever made him feel this whole, this real. He stares longingly at Viktor, the soft curve of hair around his ear, the twitch of his brow as he works through his confusion of Jayce knowing his name. But of course Jayce does.
Knows his name. Knows how long he can sit before he's too stiff to walk. Post-Canon Fix it Timeline- Where Jayce can't let go how badly he messed up, Viktor needs a few reasons to break his cycle of withdrawing from others, and they both pretend they aren't the dumbest men in all of Piltover and Zaun combined. Viktor and Jayce share a complex partnership as Piltover scientists, united by their shared goals and deep respect for one another.
Viktor struggles with his growing affection for Jayce while feeling overshadowed by his charisma and likable nature. While Jayce isn't entirely blind to his own feelings, he remains unaware of Viktor's feelings for him. He gets off on the anonymity of coming to the bar One Last Drop for drinks and dancing and maybe something more.
