[ Viktor is doing his best right now to remain civil between giving Jayce so many looks and then now having to talk to Jinx of whom he's talked to a whopping 3 whole times?? He was not prepared to play mediator today. In fact, he is probably the worst person to have this role forced upon them??
He will...do his best, okay? Okay. ]
I've been informed by Jayce that you wished to speak with me? [ A pause. ]
So. What is it you'd like to discuss? [ He voice sounds even and calm as ever at least. If she does have a gemstone there is a fine line he's going to have to play here. ]
We all handle our stress in different ways. It's never been something that, eh, made much of a difference especially when it came to our work. [ Like Viktor gets so nervous he throws up?? So you know. He's also giving Jayce a side-eye because what did you do to mess up things so badly like this? ]
Mm. A good question. [ Amused. ]
Who says I haven't done so, especially in the past? [ He definitely has done it in the past!! ] But this is not what you wanted to speak to me about, is it?
(It feels nearly impossible to believe that Viktor doesn't want to smack him at least twice a day.)
Should have kept at it. Don't think he got it from the past examples. Anyway, I currently don't like him. He's a little lap dog, but since he's soooooo worried, and because I owe you one, I'll do you a solid. I'll send you whatever research results and I'll talk to you alone about it.
Working together with someone for almost ten years, you do get used to their...ah, quirks.
[ You know as normal lab partners do. Which, Jayce, might not like this next bit, but this is a rather important matter. And he has now been forced to do damage control against his will, so, he's going to run with it because he is just very annoyed about this whole situation! ]
Might I suggest something? Doing this research, together, might prove more beneficial for the whole of Etraya and Runeterra. Since you are already sending me the results and willing to speak to me about it, I don't see why this wouldn't be easier. A collaboration, if anything.
[ Does he want to do this, not really, but when has he been in control of anything in his life up to this point, right? But his interests are solely in helping the people here with the gemstone with hextech. He's trying to see what he can get away with here. But since she's the one with the gemstone, Viktor is loathed to say that she has the upper hand and he feels himself once again having little control of a situation that is potentially dangerous. He is so very annoyed about this. ]
As long as this research is not for the creation of weapons, that is. I do not think that the gemstone should be used for such things here.

He's out on the grounds of being a bitch.
