    Summary

    “Worse than last time?” Jayce posits a guess.

    “It’s, eh-” Viktor shrugs. Tilts his chin this way and that. A tsk. “Bearable. I’ve endured worse hangovers in college.” he was going for a laugh, but the punchline never truly lands. Instead, Jayce’s thumb rubs softly into the back of his palm, pressing like he wants to idle the muscle mass into something new. It’s such a small thing, whatever this is, and yet it steadies the flow of his blood; the relief of loosening a valve, flicking off a pressure switch. It’s the necessary cracking-open of his breast. Jayce squeezes. Viktor allows himself the luxury of a sigh. “You shouldn’t be here.” he mutters.

    Jayce reflexively shakes his head. “I took the day off.”

    “We both know that’s-”

    “—I could take the week.” he insists, almost a threat, a flicker of that eternal stubbornness coursing through him.

    -

    Viktor longs for a soft place in which to bury his teeth.

    Summary

    And one third part of the stars of heaven did seek to cast themselves and all the remainder down to Earth, saying, “We love you. Please come home."

    Or: “I was so stupid back then. I thought if I could just tell her how I saw her, how special and beautiful and wonderful she obviously was to keep fighting against so much, that I could break through to her. Europa understood from very early on that what she really wanted was to be treated like a dog."

    Summary

    He knows very well that he can take the reins back. If he doesn’t belong to Watto, and he at least acts like he doesn’t belong to the Jedi, then maybe he can trick himself into thinking he has at least a little bit of control over his life.
