[The healing is not something he ever expected would be Jayce's element, but he seems to have taken to it all the same. Perhaps it helps that he has a very concrete, very personal goal, with regards to practicing and getting better, but seeing Jayce take to magic so easily does something to him. A deep fondness beyond even what he already feels, knowing that this is something he's chased his whole life, and now has at his disposal. It feels right. Viktor is so happy for him.
He breaks the kiss. They pull back from each other, and Viktor simply looks, for a moment.]
Ah. Did I seem distracted?
[Maybe he was. There are a lot of thoughts bouncing around in his head, but Jayce is right. They can take notes later. Right now, there's only one thing he wants--well, two things, and the first is necessary for the second. Even Jayce is saying as much, at this point, like Viktor was going to let any of this happen without getting cleaned up first. He knows how grimy he is, thanks, and he pushes against Jayce's chest in mock offense.]
Considering I spent the better part of last week in the back of a wagon, you should be glad it isn't worse.
[That's all he says as he grabs his crutch and makes his way to the bathroom, leaving his shirt and braces and shoes on the floor where they are. The bath is full, and he shuts off the tap, easing himself down on edge of the tub so that he can strip the rest of the way. Viktor's left the door open with the implication that Jayce should follow him inside, though if he doesn't get the hint right away, he'll call after him, apparently unconcerned by his state of increasing undress.]

Are you going to keep me company?
