[Viktor went quiet for a moment after that, tension in his body slowly starting to leave it as he relaxed little by little. Nothing was really any better, but...it was easier to carry right now, if nothing else.]
Well since you asked nicely. [Jayce rolls his eyes a little, but rearranges blankets in order to be able to lie down in Viktor's nest with him, wrapping around him again.]
[Jayce's chin rests against the top of Viktor's head, arms protectively around him. The fingertips of one hand trace circles and swirls over his back, soothingly.] It's true, I am pretty verbose. Actions speak louder than words, hm?
Yeah? [He cradles Viktor like he's precious. Not quite like he's fragile, but like he might melt away if Jayce doesn't hold him as close and as tight as he can]
[Viktor answered in little more than a soft sound in the affirmative, pressing a little closer with a slow release of tension through his back and shoulders.]
I don't know about too kind. I don't think it's possible to be too kind. But I'm happy to be kind to you. I care about you, Viktor. Of course I'd be kind.

Sorry...really shouldn't fall asleep on you.

[Too tired to be argued with or really think about the potential consequences, Viktor muttered that in what sounded like defeated exasperation.]

Like this?

[Curling against him with less hesitation now, the corner of Viktor's mouth twitched into a nearly imperceptible smile.]
Even my patience only lasts so long.

Miluju tě, you are so much better than I deserve.
