"We can also practice in the Horizon. Make sure everything is perfect."
Not that Viktor would accept anything otherwise. This is his life they're talking about, and Jayce has made it clear that they're not going to take chances with it. He's not in the desperate position he was back home. They have time to get it right.
That does not, however, mean that it will be simple, or easy. Already Viktor is envisioning a complex procedure that he's not sure they really have the medical equipment or expertise to execute. Oh well. Viktor has made it clear that there's very little he won't do, in service of a cure. If that means outright cutting him open to get at his ailing lungs, well, now they have an actual surgeon on their team.
So he can begrudgingly admit that he's glad to have entertained the discussion, though of course he doesn't want Jayce to think that he's avoiding potentially lifesaving avenues as a matter of pride. He rubs his thumb across Jayce's cheek.
"You know it isn't that. I was...angry, that Tony sees this as a puzzle for him to solve."
