"If you want us actually to eat breakfast and not have sex on this table instead, don't be provocative." Jayce is saying it half joking and half completely serious. Yes inherently the idea of having to compete with other hims for Viktor's attention is ridiculous and that's why it is really funny. On the other hand, it does stir up that little streak in here of claiming him and it doesn't have to be logical to be true.
Jayce reaches out to take Viktor's hand once he sits and kisses the knuckles lovingly, the simplest of gestures, before he releases it and eats. Viktor went through the effort so he would eat it even if it was terrible, but it's good, of course. He nods in agreement about it being performative, although he thinks they probably were annoyed. Annoyed that they didn't get there in time. They were already respected, but this made them something more dangerous ... and more desirable, for scientists.
Jayce on the other hand makes certain to chew and swallow before talking. His mother's training, although he is far more sloppy when they're in the lab and just starving. Then he'll get too excited to care about niceties. "Finish them then. Matt in particular could use it, after what he went through." Jayce found him in the aftermath. A good man, Wanda's man.
"It's great, V." Obviously since Jayce more or less scarfed it down, but that is also him when he's hungry. It goes fast. He scoots his chair closer to Viktor and reaches out to run his fingers through his messy hair. "I love your hair like this so much." Viktor knows that but he's still going to say it.
"You know if I'm a year older, so are you. You got here first." So he'll still always be a little younger than his lover, as it was meant to be. Jayce is definitely the person that once he gets to forty he's going to have a meltdown. Luckily they are many years away from that. For now.
