Summary
Viktor learned early on that he would always be rejected. So, he stuffed his feelings into a box and threw away the key. It wasn't a good trait for a Zaunite, a budding scientist, to be so sensitive anyways.
Then, he meets Jayce Talis and everything kind of sort of changes.
(based partially on a response tweet from Viktor's VA, who believes that Viktor spent his life closing himself off emotionally before we meet him in Ep. 2 to combat how intense said emotions are. good take, if you ask me!)

Bookmarker's Notes
So funny and embarrassing story: I'm back in the fucking building again (loving Rufus and his rights and wrongs unconditionally) after I saw his card in the Final Fantasy Magic the Gathering collection. I saw him and I started crying(??????????) Anyway, I was compelled to look up fics since it's been a while and I'm so glad I did because I loved this to pieces. 10/10 tysm OP.

Summary
It's not the same as before.
He can sort of remember it now, a childish fantasy borne of a broken home and a desperate loneliness, but there's no emotion attached to it beyond a vague sort of pity.
It's a bit like reading a report:
Peeta Mellark, 74th Victor of The Hunger Games, in love with Katniss Everdeen since he was five. Unrequited.

Summary
Jayce inhales sharply as his lower lip wobbles. What he wouldn’t give to be back in the dingy physics building, suspected asbestos and poor ventilation included. What he wouldn’t give to be sharing a cup of coffee with Viktor over their kitchen table.
What he wouldn’t give to be with Viktor again.
Or: After a fight with Viktor, Jayce goes on a week-long hike to clear his head in the misty April air. Someone else comes out of the mountains six months later.

Summary
Jayce Talis is a jaded reporter with a sharp tongue, a tape recorder, and an unhealthy fascination with cults.
The case seems simple: a missing girl, a commune deep in the woods, a story waiting to be written.But the leader greets him like he has been waiting for him his whole life. Smiles like he knows him. Watches like he’s remembering something.
And around them, the trees whisper. The dirt breathes.
And the orchard is blooming.

Summary
Viktor "A," the mage who transcended mortality, reached over and over through the expanse of the Arcane to find an end to the eternal cycle he and Jayce are bound to. The journey finally over, he watches as his own Jayce is freed from the suffering they've endured for far, far too long, and quietly awaits his turn.
It does not come. Clearly there is work still to do.
Lost and now without purpose for the first time in eons, Viktor turns his energy toward the first act of atonement that comes to mind: rescuing Jayce "C," a variant whose unique circumstances have left him trapped in his dead-end timeline for over a decade. Perhaps if he can find somewhere safe for this Jayce to exist, he will finally earn his own story's end.
If only it were that easy. Viktor A has made a terribly human miscalculation- he failed to consider that he and Jayce C may have different expectations when it comes to their 'temporary' arrangement.
